A 72-year-old man with a lung tumor admitted to our hospital for surgical treatment. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a mass in the right middle lobe extending to the truncus intermedius and the left main bronchus. The enucleation of the tumor in the left main bronchus was performed with a bronchoscope followed by right middle and lower lobectomy. From the bronchial stump, the residual tumor was observed in the bronchus and was able to be pulled out since there was no invasion of the tumor into the bronchial wall. Pathological diagnosis was pulmonary carcinosarcoma.

Infective endocarditis used to frequently cause mortality in subjects having PDA before the advent of antibiotics and surgical ligation. It has been documented that clinically silent PDAs may cause infective complications of heart valves. We present case of an 18-years-old male who presented with palpitations and fever to our emergency department.

Background: Patients with a high risk of bleeding undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI-HBR) were provided consensus-based criteria by the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR). However, the prognostic predictors in this group of patients have yet to be fully explored. Thus, an effective prognostic prediction model for PCI-HBR patients is required.

Background: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiac disease characterized by fibrofatty replacement of ventricular myocardium. Ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death (SCD) are the main clinical manifestations. ACM was previously called arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D).

Background: Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality, is a main cause of unexpected myocardial injury after acute myocardial infarction. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), which are formed from protein-coding genes, can sequester microRNAs or proteins, modulate transcription and interfere with splicing.

Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases & Department of Cardiology, Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, School of Medicine, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu 610072, Sichuan Province, China.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant inherited cardiomyopathy characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy. It is one of the chief causes of sudden cardiac death in younger people and athletes. Molecular-genetic studies have confirmed that the vast majority of HCM is caused by mutations in genes encoding sarcomere proteins.
