Non-invasive lobular neoplasia (LN) encompasses atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH), classic lobular carcinoma in situ (CLCIS), florid lobular carcinoma in situ (FLCIS), and pleomorphic lobular carcinoma in situ (PLCIS). Lobular neoplasia is a neoplastic epithelial proliferation of the terminal duct lobular unit. A defining feature is discohesion due to the loss of E-cadherin, a protein that facilitates cell-to-cell adhesion.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare skin cancer that mainly affects the elderly, and whose incidence is increasing. Although the exact origin of this cancer remains uncertain, research in recent years has revealed that MCC develops through two oncogenesis pathways: virally induced by the Merkel polyomavirus (80% of cases) and induced by mutations linked to ultraviolet rays (20% of cases). MCC is an aggressive cancer, with a high mortality rate and limited therapeutic options in advanced stage.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the current knowledge on the prevention and treatment of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) associated with transcatheter mitral valve replacement-a novel and evolving treatment alternative for mitral regurgitation-encompassing both surgical and pharmacological interventions. LVOTO is a potentially catastrophic complication of transcatheter mitral valve replacement. Therefore, identifying patients at high risk for LVOTO and implementing a carefully tailored medical and surgical strategy are essential for optimizing perioperative management and improving patient outcomes.

Background: Severe calcification is the morphology most strongly associated with stent underexpansion.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to revise an optical coherence tomography (OCT)-derived calcium score to predict stent underexpansion in severely calcified lesions (angle >270°) using a point-based system.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted in which 250 de novo lesions undergoing OCT-guided stenting, with angiographically visible calcium and optical coherence tomographic maximum superficial calcium angle >270°, not subjected to atherectomy or specialty balloon treatment before stent implantation, were randomly divided into derivation (n = 167) and validation (n = 83) cohorts.

Inhalation of elemental mercury is a rare cause of ARDS, with limited published case reports to provide guidance regarding disease progression and management. Although extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been used to treat toxin-induced lung injury, its application to initial treatment and long-term recovery for inhalation of mercury remains undescribed. We present a case of a 56-year-old man who works at a thermometer factory presenting with severe ARDS secondary to inhaled elemental mercury with confirmatory blood and urine mercury levels.
