Background: Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and developmental venous anomaly (DVA) rarely coexist. Developing a surgical strategy to treat this co-occurrence is difficult due to the unclear pathogenesis. We report the use of super-selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and Three-dimensional (3D) rotational digital subtraction venography (DSV) to develop a surgical strategy for complex AVM draining into a DVA.

The simultaneous occurrence of more than two types of neoplasms is rare due to their significant phenotypic differences. Thyroid carcinoma is regularly associated with genetic alterations and endocrine syndromes. However, the etiology of the forms of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)/medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is still not fully understood.

Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor for Chronic Kidney Disease: Strategies for Renal Protection.

Article Synopsis
  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension often occur together, complicating treatment, and while renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors are useful, their effectiveness for advanced CKD is still debated.
  • Angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) show promise in managing heart failure and may help protect kidney function, but direct evidence for their renal benefits is limited.
  • There are concerns about ARNI use in patients with severe renal failure due to the risk of low blood pressure, thus careful monitoring is crucial to balance its potential benefits and risks.

Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a relatively rare thyroid malignancy, constituting a small percentage of all thyroid cancer cases. Even more rare is the occurrence of mixed MTC and papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), found in a very small fraction of MTC cases. These cancers originate from different cell types with distinct developmental origins.

The coexistence of tuberculosis (TB) and malignancy within the same lymph node is a rare, if not exceptional, pathology, with only a few cases reported. We collected patients who presented concomitant TB and malignancy within the same cervical lymph node diagnosed during the period (2010-2023). Ten patients were included.
