A Series of 40 Congenital Lung Malformation Cases and the Informative Value of CPAM Lesion Ratios.
Pediatr Rep
January 2025
Clinic for Pediatric Surgery, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, 20246 Hamburg, Germany.
Introduction: In this single-center retrospective analysis, we present case data and insights gathered over the past eight years. Additionally, we computed postnatal, pre-therapy lesion-to-lung ratios of Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformations (CPAMs) to retrospectively assess potential outcome prediction using lesion-to-lung ratios.
Methods: Data were collected between 2015 and 2022.
The Complexity and Significance of Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) Signaling for FGF-Targeted Cancer Therapies.
Cancers (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE 19716, USA.
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) have diverse functions in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation in development, tissue maintenance, wound repair, and angiogenesis. The goal of this review paper is to (i) deliberate on the role of FGFs and FGF receptors (FGFRs) in different cancers, (ii) present advances in FGF-targeted cancer therapies, and (iii) explore cell signaling mechanisms that explain how FGF expression becomes dysregulated during cancer development. FGF is often mutated and overexpressed in cancer and the different FGF and FGFR isoforms have unique expression patterns and distinct roles in different cancers.

Dorsal Intradural Extramedullary Bronchogenic Cysts: A Case Report and Comprehensive Literature Review.
Cureus
December 2024
Neurological Surgery, High Specialty Regional Hospital Bajio, León, MEX.
Intradural extramedullary bronchogenic cysts (IEBCs) are exceedingly rare congenital entities, composed of respiratory epithelial cells derived from the anomalous development of the embryonic foregut. Due to their exceptionally low morbidity, only limited cases are available. Consequently, the clinical features and optimal therapeutic approach remain poorly understood.

Department of Pathology, Boston Children's Hospital & Harvard Medical School, 300 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115, USA.
Localized cystic lung lesions in pediatric patients encompass a spectrum of benign and rare malignant conditions that are quite distinct from cystic lung disease arising in adulthood. The majority have historically fallen under the diagnostic category of "congenital pulmonary airway malformation," a term that has been used to denote a diverse group of diseases ranging in etiology from ectopia to bronchial atresia to mosaic oncogenic mutation or neoplasia. This article reviews the clinical characteristics, gross and histologic features, and pathogenetic underpinnings of congenital pulmonary airway malformation as well as lesions that enter its histologic differential diagnosis.
