General Surgery, Ibn Rochd University Hospital/Hassan II University, Casablanca, MAR.
Diaphragmatic rupture during labor is an exceptionally rare condition, with a limited number of cases reported in the literature.

Res Pract Thromb Haemost
January 2025
Division of Vascular Surgery, St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by the proteolytic breakdown of the extracellular matrix, leading to dilatation of the aorta and increased risk of rupture. Biomarkers that can predict major adverse aortic events (MAAEs) are needed to risk stratify patients for more rigorous medical treatment and potential earlier surgical intervention.
Objectives: The primary objective was to identify the association between baseline levels of these biomarkers and MAAEs over a period of 5 years.
Assessing the value of computed tomography (CT) of the chest in the follow-up of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
J Gastrointest Oncol

Abdominal Imaging Department, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, USA.
Background: Following tumor resection, imaging recommendation for the follow-up of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHCCA) include frequent chest, abdomen and pelvis computed tomography (CT) imaging. The appropriateness of additional imaging studies is usually derived from their clinical utility. The purpose of this work is to determine the value of chest CT imaging in the follow-up of patients with IHCCA.

Skeletal Radiol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Fukui Prefectural Hospital, 2-8-1 Yotsui, Fukui City, 910-8526, Japan.
Objectives: Paravertebral crystal deposition disease, characterized by the deposition of crystals around the vertebral bodies leading to acute inflammation and pain, is a condition that remains largely unrecognized. This study aims to elucidate the prevalence, clinical features, and CT findings associated with this disease.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 14,839 consecutive patients who underwent chest and/or abdominal CT (September 2017 to September 2024) owing to chest, abdominal, or back pain.
The impact of neoadjuvant therapy in patients with left-sided resectable pancreatic cancer: an international multicenter study.
Ann Oncol
January 2025
Division of Surgical Oncology, Department of Surgery, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, CO, USA.
Purpose: To assess the association between neoadjuvant therapy and overall survival (OS) in patients with left-sided resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) compared to upfront surgery.
Background: Left-sided pancreatic cancer is associated with worse OS compared to right-sided pancreatic cancer. Although neoadjuvant therapy is currently seen as not effective in patients with RPC, current randomized trials included mostly patients with right-sided RPC.
