Interventional Radiology, Houston Vascular Care, Houston, USA.
Cystic artery pseudoaneurysms are a rare but life-threatening entity that commonly occurs as a sequela to acute cholecystitis. We present a case of a 52-year-old male with a past medical history of decompensated alcoholic liver cirrhosis who underwent a transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) after correction of his baseline coagulopathy. On post-operative day one, the patient had significant blood loss with an inappropriate response to blood transfusions and without an identifiable source of bleeding.

This was a case report and literature review, aimed to strengthen the understanding and therapy of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) pneumonia combined with cold agglutinin disease and pulmonary embolism in children. A 7-year-old boy was taken to the hospital with fever for 7 days, cough for 5 days, and recurrent cyanosis at the extremities of one day duration. Pulmonary artery computed tomography angiography (CTA) showed pulmonary embolism, double pneumonia, and pleural effusion.

Introduction: The duodeno-pancreatic region is a highly vascularized area. The superior and posterior pancreaticoduodenal artery is a vessel primarily originating from the gastroduodenal artery. It exhibits rare anatomical variations, such as its emergence from the right branch of the hepatic artery, which we fortuitously identified during a cadaver dissection.

Objective: The objective of this study was to discuss the characteristics of intracranial extension in patients with juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) and propose and an algorithm for its management.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of all patients with JNA who underwent operations between January 2013 and January 2023 was done, and those cases with intracranial extension categorized as stage IIIb, IVa, and IVb according to the Andrews modification of the Fisch staging classification were included in the study. Data were collected about age at presentation, symptoms, radiological findings, routes of intracranial extension, therapeutic management, and follow-up.
Ventilation/Perfusion Mismatch in Pulmonary Vein Stenosis Secondary to Atrial Fibrillation Ablation.

Article Synopsis
- Two patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation developed pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) after AF ablation, with Case 1 being a female in her 50s and Case 2 a male in his 60s.
- The first patient showed high-degree left superior PVS 15 months post-ablation, while the second had progressive PVS nine months later, confirmed through contrast-enhanced CT and ventilation-perfusion scans.
- PVS is a rare complication of AF ablation that can lead to severe issues if untreated, and the case report emphasizes the importance of V/Q scans in assessing PVS despite its common association with pulmonary embolism evaluations.
