AI Article Synopsis
- Two patients with lung cancer who had recovered from COVID-19 underwent lobectomy surgeries.
- During the procedures, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery revealed hilar fibrosis, leading to a conversion in one case.
- Both patients had successful recoveries with no postoperative complications or deaths, and pathological examination results were also discussed.
Article Abstract
We present two cases of lobectomy in lung cancer patients who recovered from COVID-19 before surgical treatment. In both cases, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery was initiated and hilar fibrosis was detected; as a result, conversion was performed in one case. There were no postoperative complications and mortality. Also, we demonstrate the results of pathological examination in patients who have recovered from COVID-19.

Introduction: The coexistence of gallbladder (LSG) and adenomyomatosis (ADM) is extremely uncommon presenting a novel clinical dilemma that has not been previously documented. LSG refers to a anomaly where the gallbladder is situated to the left of the round ligament deviating from its usual position. This anomaly is rare, with reported occurrences ranging between 0.

Staphylococcus aureus is a relevant pathogen in bloodstream infections (BSI), and the emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic increased its antimicrobial resistance. S. aureus isolates from BSI (September/2019 - March/2021) were analyzed phenotypically and molecularly, in addition to the clinical features of the patients.

Haemorrhagic cholecystitis is an uncommon cause of abdominal pain that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not promptly identified and treated. Known risk factors include trauma, anticoagulation use and cholelithiasis. In a patient with right upper quadrant pain after blunt trauma on anticoagulation without cholelithiasis, haemorrhagic acalculous cholecystitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis, as appeared to be the case in the patient we present here.

Background: Brain accumulation of amyloid-ß (Aß) in plaques and neurons is the cause of AD neuropathology that is opposed by autologous monocyte/macrophages (MMs) in health but this defense fails in AD.
Method: RNAseq, immunochemistry of the brain, immunofluorescence, and confocal microscopy of macrophages.
Result: In the AD brain, MMs shuttle Aß from parenchyma to vessels, which develop vasculitis, causing amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIAs).

Background: Severe systemic infections can trigger cognitive decline, but the underlying mechanisms and their impact on the manifestation and progression of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases are poorly understood. The current COVID-19 pandemic has brought a surge of severe viral illness and highlights the importance of understanding the impact of acute infections on cognition and the manifestation of neurodegenerative disease in survivors. A wealth of observational and clinical data suggests major short- and long-term effects of severe infections on cognition, but detailed and systematic analyses of neuropathological changes after acute infections are scarce.
