Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the clinicopathological features, radiographic manifestations, treatment options, and prognosis of primary pulmonary angiosarcoma (PPAS).
Method: We summarized and analyzed the clinical data of 11 patients with primary pulmonary angiosarcoma treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between January 2018 and January 2024. A retrospective analysis was conducted in conjunction with a review of the relevant literature.

Endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (ESAM) is a member of tight junction molecules, highly abundant in the heart and the lung, and plays a role in regulating endothelial cell permeability. We previously reported that mice with genetic ESAM deficiency (ESAM) exhibit coronary microvascular dysfunction leading to the development of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Here, we hypothesize that ESAM mice display impairments in the pulmonary vasculature, affecting the overall pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR).

Objectives: Numerous studies have demonstrated impaired right ventricular (RV) synchronicity in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, few studies have focused on connective tissue disease (CTD)-associated PAH. This study evaluates RV dyssynchrony and its prognostic value in CTD-associated PAH.

The vascular endothelium is vital for cardio-pulmonary homeostasis and, thus, plays a crucial role in preventing life-threatening lung diseases. The transcription factor GATA2 is essential for hematopoiesis and maintaining vascular integrity. Heterozygous mutations in GATA2 can lead to a primary immunodeficiency syndrome with pulmonary manifestations.

Absence of the ductus arteriosus (DA) is common in tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), occurring in up to 30% of cases. Yet, the clinical course and fetal echocardiographic features are not well described, limiting prenatal counseling. This study examines the fetal echocardiographic characteristics and perinatal outcomes in children with TOF absent DA (TOF/ADA), comparing them to those with a DA (TOF/DA).
