Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most common causes of death worldwide. Animal models for MI are useful for studying the pathophysiology and developing therapies. Here, we describe a surgical protocol for permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery in mice, which mimics human acute coronary syndrome. This protocol includes descriptive step-by-step surgical procedures and high-quality surgical videos, which are useful for performing stable and highly reproducible operations. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Maruyama et al. (2021).

Purpose Of Review: Ewing's sarcoma is a small round-cell tumour typically arising in the bones, and only rarely affecting soft tissues. These are rarely seen in the head and neck comprising 1-9% of all cases, making management of these tumours a challenge. This review aims to review the current literature to update the current diagnostic and treatment options in head and neck Ewing's sarcoma.

Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common types of urogenital cancer. The introduction of immune-based combinations, including dual immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) or ICI plus tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), has radically changed the treatment landscape for metastatic RCC, showing varying efficacy across different prognostic groups based on the International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium (IMDC) criteria.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective multicenter study, part of the ARON-1 project, aimed to evaluate the outcomes of favorable-risk metastatic RCC patients treated with immune-based combinations or sunitinib.
