Impact of lesion preparation-induced calcified plaque defects in vascular intervention for atherosclerotic disease: in silico assessment.

Percutaneous coronary interventions in highly calcified atherosclerotic lesions are challenging due to the high mechanical stiffness that significantly restricts stent expansion. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a novel vessel preparation technique with the potential to improve interventional outcomes by inducing microscopic and macroscopic cracks to enhance stent expansion. However, the exact mechanism of action for IVL is poorly understood, and it remains unclear whether the improvement in-stent expansion is caused by either the macro-cracks allowing the vessel to open or the micro-cracks altering the bulk material properties.

Cystic cuboid adenomatous malformations (CCAM) are congenital pulmonary lesions, usually benign, that can progress into malignancy. Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) is another type of malformation that consistsof an ectopic pulmonary tissue mass that doesn't participate in blood-gas exchanges, with vascularization provided by anomalous branches of the thoracic aorta. Hybrid lesions are lesions that have histological features of CCAM but with systemic vascularization, a pathognomonic sign of BPS.

Indian J Pediatr
January 2025
Division of General and Thoracic Surgery, Department of Surgery, The Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Objectives: Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) lesion with an aberrant systemic blood supply is considered a "hybrid" lesion (HL). The aim of the study was to report authors' experience in the presentation, surgical management, and outcomes of HL.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study of HL patients followed from 2000 to 2022 in a single institution was done.
Surgical treatment of cerebellar pontine angle lipoma combined with trigeminal neuralgia: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Head and Neck Surgery, Hubei Cancer Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei Province, China.
Rationale: Cerebellar pontine angle lipomas with trigeminal neuralgia are rare. The treatment choice is influenced by whether the pain is caused by the lipoma or the compression of blood vessels. Herein, we aimed to report a case of the disease and provide a reference for its treatment.
