Background: The Anomalous Origin of the Right Coronary Artery from the Left Coronary Sinus (ARCA-LCS) is a rare congenital cardiac condition where the right coronary artery emerges from the left sinus instead of the right coronary sinus of Valsalva. The clinical significance of ARCA-LCS lies in its potential to cause myocardial ischemia or sudden cardiac death, particularly under physical exertion. In this case, a patient experienced sudden cardiac arrest during sexual activity, which has not previously been reported.

General and Thoracic Pediatric Surgery Unit, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, IRCCS, Rome, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Hemoptysis, the coughing up of blood, can stem from various serious underlying conditions, but often involves high-pressure bronchial arteries; Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is typically the first-line treatment despite varying long-term success rates.
- A 12-year-old boy with a history of massive hemoptysis underwent multiple BAEs and recent imaging confirmed the location of previous coils; however, he experienced another episode where traditional intervention was complicated by prior treatments.
- The medical team opted for a thoracoscopic approach, successfully isolating and ligating the problematic vessel, leading to the patient's stabilization and discharge after four days.

Article Synopsis
- Chylothorax is a rare complication following thoracoscopic sympathectomy, especially on the right side, but was observed in a case involving a 37-year-old woman who had surgery for axillary hyperhidrosis.
- Post-surgery, the patient experienced excessive drainage of milky fluid, which was confirmed as chylothorax through lab tests showing elevated triglyceride levels.
- An exploratory procedure revealed an anomalous thoracic duct on the right side, which was successfully treated, highlighting the importance of considering anatomical variations and potential complications in thoracic surgeries.
