We present two symptomatic patients of five and six months old with unilateral agenesis of main pulmonary branch (right and left) without associated anomalies. The diagnostic was made with magnetic resonance imaging and two-dimensional echocardiographic with Doppler color flow. We think that the magnetic resonance, must be used with priority in this pathology for being a non invasive diagnostic method, that is able to diagnostic the basic cardiopathy and the intracardiac and extracardiac associated anomalies. His association with the Doppler-echocardiography allow to ignore the arteriography upon to get a accurate diagnostic.

Background: Lipids are known to be involved in carcinogenesis, but the associations between lipid profiles and different lung cancer histological classifications remain unknown.
Methods: Individuals who participated in national adult health surveillance from 2012 to 2018 were included. For patients who developed lung cancer during follow-up, a 1:2 control group of nonlung cancer participants was selected after matching.

We reviewed the outcomes of truncus arteriosus repair (primary vs. staged repair incorporating bilateral pulmonary artery banding), focusing on survival, reintervention, and functional data. We analyzed 39 patients who underwent a first intervention for truncus arteriosus (staged, n = 19; primary, n = 20) between 1992 and 2022.

Death from mechanical asphyxia (DMA) refers to death from acute respiratory disorder caused by mechanical violence. Due to the absence of characteristic signs in corpses, it has been rather challenging to achieve the precise authentication of DMA. In this research, human pulmonary samples were collected and grouped according to different causes of death in search of potential biomarkers of DMA.
