Fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (f-HP) is an interstitial lung disease in which various antigens in susceptible individuals may play a pathogenetic role. This study evaluates the role of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in identifying a UIP-like pattern and its association with fibrosis progression. We conducted a multicentre retrospective cohort study of patients diagnosed with f-HP who underwent BAL and TBLC between 2011 and 2023.

Pineal gland lesions pose a significant surgical challenge due to the deep-seated nature of the pineal gland, as well as the limited field of view, and the complex vascular anatomy. The mainstay of surgical treatment, when necessary, is always histopathological clarity and gross total resection (GTR). We evaluate the surgical outcomes for pineal gland lesions, shedding light on functional outcomes, histological findings, and surgical complications.

Cholecystoenteric fistulas are a rare complication of chronic gallstone disease. If not diagnosed on time, they can cause several complications such as gallstone ileus, gastric outlet obstruction (Bouveret syndrome), cholangitis, or liver abscess. We present a case of a patient with chronic calculous cholecystitis, who was admitted due to unspecific abdominal discomfort and impaired liver function with increased cholestatic liver enzymes.
