Background: Lung transplantation is a viable lifesaving option for patients with diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We present a case of diffuse pulmonary AVMs associated with juvenile polyposis and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (JP-HHT) that was successfully managed by lung transplantation.
Case Presentation: A 19-year-old woman developed severe hypoxemia due to pulmonary AVMs diagnosed at 4 years of age.
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the biliary tract are extremely rare due to a paucity of Kulchitsky cells. While their preoperative diagnosis remains challenging due to the lack of specific diagnostic markers and imaging findings, there have been no detailed reports describing the diagnostic utility of various imaging modalities for bile duct NETs at the junction of the cystic and common hepatic ducts. We report a case of a woman in her 40s who presented with jaundice and elevated hepatobiliary enzymes.

BACKGROUND Hepatic lesion in a young woman can lead to multiple diagnostic hypotheses, mainly infection and tumor. Crohn's disease (CD) is hardly evoked by clinicians but is reportedly associated with liver damage, especially diffuse granulomas and aseptic abscess. IgA deficiency has been associated with celiac disease or inflammatory bowel disease, including CD.

Rationale: Biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN) is characterized by a microscopically identifiable preinvasive neoplasm of the biliary tract. BilIN is rarely diagnosed intentionally and is often detected incidentally in surgical specimens obtained via surgical resection for other types of cancers. Herein, we report a rare case of high-grade BilIN localized in the distal bile duct.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has demonstrated both efficacy and safety in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, its applicability in individuals with liver cirrhosis remains largely unexplored due to the potential for unpredictable complications. Here, we report three cases (P1, P2, and P3) of relapsed/refractory DLBCL with HBV-related cirrhosis treated with CAR-T cell infusion.
