AI Article Synopsis
- * They can grow large enough to obstruct airways, creating serious risks, particularly when located in the cervical region.
- * A case study is presented of a 23-year-old male who developed a recurrent lymphangioma in his neck, 23 years after successful surgery for the same condition shortly after birth.
Article Abstract
Lymphangiomas are rare benign malformations of the lymphatic system, commonly present in children, over the head and neck area. Occasionally, they can grow significantly in size and especially those located over the cervical region can cause airway obstruction and become life-threatening. Recurrent lymphangiomas usually occur during the early postsurgical period and 80% of them within the first 3 to 5 years. However, in a new onset of clinical manifestations affecting the head and neck, even many years after the successful surgical treatment, a recurrent lymphangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis. We present herein the second reported case, to our knowledge, of a recurrent left-sided neck lymphangioma in a young man, 23 years after a successful surgical treatment that initially took place 6 weeks after his birth.

The collaborative working group method for pre-trial knowledge mobilisation: a qualitative evaluation of a structured process for iteratively refining a complex intervention (DAFNEplus).
Pilot Feasibility Stud

Sheffield Centre for Health and Related Research, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK.
Background: There is a lack of practical guidance about how to effectively mobilise knowledge at the pre-trial stage. Despite increased guidance on developing complex interventions in recent years, much of this focuses on the theory and principles behind high-quality intervention development, rather than the practical aspects of how this should be achieved. This paper shares the findings from an embedded, qualitative evaluation of the Collaborative Working Group (CWG) process, a structured approach we developed to iteratively refine a complex intervention prior to a randomised controlled trial.

Unlabelled: Unfortunately, organ donation remains a challenge today. In Spain, uncontrolled Donation after Circulatory Death was introduced in cardiorespiratory arrests witnessed by out-of-hospital emergency services (OHES) to increase the number of donors. However, the selection of donor patients remains a challenge today.

Introduction And Importance: Female circumcision, also known as female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), is a common practice in many Arab countries, including Egypt. One potential complication of FGM/C is the development of a clitoral epidermal inclusion cyst, which occurs when keratinized epithelial cells and sebaceous glands become incorporated into the circumcision scar line in the clitoral or labial area. The objective of this study is to present a rare case of a large clitoral epidermal inclusion cyst following FGM/C and to review the current practice of FGM/C in the Arab world, including Egypt, Sudan, and Saudi Arabia.

The proliferation of space debris poses a significant challenge in modern space exploration, with potential repercussions for the future space environment and activities. Various research and technological developments have addressed these concerns, including estimating the number of space debris orbiting the Earth and its efficient removal. This paper proposes a novel resource-oriented perspective on space debris and focuses on the composition and resource potential of space debris.

Purpose: Patients with contralateral carotid artery occlusion (CCO) represent a subgroup of patients at risk for revascularization procedures. The choice of appropriate revascularization procedure (carotid endarterectomy (CEA) or carotid artery stenting (CAS)) in these patients is controversial. The aim of this study is to share the results of clinical and radiological follow-up after CAS in these patients and to contribute to the literature by evaluating the efficacy and safety of stenting.
