Novel Presentation of Coccidioidomycosis with Myriad Free-Floating Proteinaceous Spheres in the Pericardial Sac of a Southern Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris nereis).

A southern sea otter (Enhydra lutris nereis) stranded dead in central California, USA, with a distended pericardial sac containing thousands of free-floating proteinaceous masses. Serology, fungal culture, PCR, and sequencing confirmed the etiology of this novel lesion as Coccidioides immitis. Range expansion of this zoonotic pathogen is predicted with climate change.

Article Synopsis
- The Elizabeth River in Virginia has been polluted with PAHs due to historical industrial activities, leading to contamination in local sediments that affects the Atlantic killifish.
- A study exposed embryos from the heavily contaminated Atlantic Wood site and a cleaner reference site to various concentrations of Elizabeth River Sediment Extract to evaluate the impact of PAH exposure on their heart development.
- While embryos from the reference site showed significant heart abnormalities after exposure, those from the contaminated site displayed resilience, with fewer alterations in their cardiac structures, suggesting adaptation to the toxic environment.
Cystic Lesions of the Mediastinum.

Cystic lesions are commonly seen in the mediastinum, and they may arise from virtually any organ. The vast majority of these lesions are benign and result in no symptoms. When large, cysts may produce symptoms related to compression of adjacent structures.

Mediastinal schwannomas are sometimes diagnosed as pericardial or bronchogenic cysts, if cystic degeneration is extensive. When mediastinal schwannomas are not diagnosed as primary cardiac tumors, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass in their resection appears to be infrequent. We report the case of a 48-year-old woman who presented with symptoms from a suspected intrapericardial cyst.
