Pancreatic masses pose a diagnostic difficulty due to the technical complexities related to tissue acquisition. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided tissue acquisition has transformed the field by allowing access to pancreatic lesions through fine-needle and biopsy. However, diagnostic accuracy differs based on tumor characteristics and procedural factors.

Background: Percutaneous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been developed thanks to the progress in the field of cannulation, but still justifies the presence of an on-site cardiac resuscitation department. Corsica is a French island without an on-site cardiac surgery department.
Aim: To evaluate the percutaneous ECMO programme in Corsica.
TransCatheter aortic valve implantation and fractional flow reserve-guided percutaneous coronary intervention versus conventional surgical aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass grafting for treatment of patients with aortic valve stenosis and complex or multivessel coronary disease (TCW): an international, multicentre, prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial.

Background: Patients with severe aortic stenosis present frequently (∼50%) with concomitant obstructive coronary artery disease. Current guidelines recommend combined surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as the preferred treatment. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) represent a valid treatment alternative.

Background: The majority of patients of lung cancer have already lost the chance of surgery at the time of diagnosis. Percutaneous local thermal ablation is a precise minimally invasive technique and a viable alternative to surgical treatment. Compared with radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation, percutaneous laser ablation for the treatment of lung tumors is less commonly used and reported, especially for primary lung cancer.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the effectiveness of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) for diagnosing invasive pulmonary fungal infections using touch imprints from bronchoscopic and lung tissue biopsies, which can initiate antifungal therapy faster.
- Analyzing 44 patients with confirmed fungal infections, the results showed that ROSE has a sensitivity of 81.8%, making it comparable to traditional methods like histopathology, which had a sensitivity of 86.4%.
- Rapid on-site evaluation provided results in just about 10 minutes, significantly quicker than other diagnostic techniques, and facilitated early antifungal treatment for 76.3% of patients, leading to clinical improvement.
