Incidentally discovered inflammatory pseudotumour of the spleen: understanding clinical manifestations and diagnosis.
BMJ Case Rep
January 2025
Surgical Oncology, Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital, Sayre, Pennsylvania, USA.
A splenic inflammatory pseudotumour (IPT) is a rare condition in which inflammatory cells and non-cancerous specialised cells known as myofibroblasts abnormally replicate in the spleen. Patients with IPT may experience symptoms like abdominal pain, fever and weight loss, making it difficult to distinguish from processes like cancer. As a result, diagnosing IPT often requires imaging studies and microscopic examination.

Department of Surgery, Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine, Ho Chi Minh 07000, Viet Nam.
Background: Hepatic eosinophilic pseudotumor (HEPT) is a rare condition that mimics malignant hepatic tumors, posing significant diagnostic challenges. This case report highlights the importance of considering parasitic infections like () in the differential diagnosis of hepatic masses, especially in endemic regions, to prevent unnecessary interventions.
Case Summary: A 40-year-old female presented with a 1-month history of epigastric pain and significant weight loss.

Introduction: This case examines the sonographic and clinical challenge of diagnosing a pyogenic liver abscess with systemic metastatic infection.
Case Description: The patient in this case study is an 81-year-old man who presented with intermittent rigors. Following radiological and clinical assessments, a pyogenic liver abscess, with evidence of systemic metastatic infection, was diagnosed.
Brachytherapy Seed Placement by Robotic Bronchoscopy with Cone-Beam CT Guidance for Peripheral Lung Cancer: A Human Cadaveric Feasibility Pilot.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys
January 2025
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Purpose: This study evaluates the feasibility of utilizing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with cone beam computed tomography (RB-CBCT) platform to perform low-dose-rate brachytherapy implants (LDR-BT) in a mechanically ventilated human cadaveric model. Post-implant dosimetry was compared to standard stereotactic body radiation therapy plans (SBRT).
Materials And Methods: The RB-CBCT platform was used to place inert LDR-BT seeds into mechanically ventilated human cadavers with percutaneously injected pseudotumors.
Evaluation of targeting accuracy of cone beam CT guided histotripsy in an porcine model.
Int J Hyperthermia
December 2025
Department of Radiology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA.
Purpose: The application of histotripsy, an emerging noninvasive, non-ionizing, and non-thermal tumor treatment, is currently limited by the inherent limitations of diagnostic ultrasound as the sole targeting modality. This study evaluates the feasibility and accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) guidance for histotripsy treatments in an porcine model.
Materials And Methods: Histotripsy treatments were performed in the liver of seven healthy swine under the guidance of a C-arm CBCT system that was calibrated to the robotic arm of the histotripsy system.
