Background: Generalized lymphatic anomaly (GLA) is a rare congenital lymphatic malformation (LM) characterized by multiple infiltrating lymphangiomas in various tissues. Owing to its rarity, information on this disease is obtained mainly through case reports, leading to delayed diagnosis. In this study, we reported a case of generalized lymphatic anomaly in a pediatric patient manifesting as hemorrhagic pleural effusion.

Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lung grows gradually, and spreads along the bronchial wall, often requiring tracheobronchoplastic procedure during surgery; however, incomplete resection occasionally occurs due to positive surgical margins. To avoid incomplete resection, effort should be exerted to confirm the extent of airway invasion of the tumor before surgery. Herein, we present the utility of combined treatment with bronchoscopic electrocautery wire snare for the endobronchial tumor prior to sleeve lobectomy with curative resection for patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lung.
