Takayasu's arteritis causing coronary stenosis with myocardial ischemia, severe aortic regurgitation, and pericarditis.
Radiol Case Rep

Radiology Department; Hospital Universitario QuironSalud Madrid, Diego de Velázquez 1, Pozuelo de Alarcón, España.
Article Synopsis
- Takayasu's Arteritis (TA) is a rare and chronic condition affecting large blood vessels, which can result in serious heart problems and potentially life-threatening situations.
- A 34-year-old woman with a heart murmur experienced chest pain, and imaging revealed multiple cardiac issues leading to her diagnosis of TA.
- The case emphasizes the importance of early detection and multimodal imaging for patients with unusual symptoms and heart-related complications, especially those with valvular diseases.
Effectiveness and safety of a 1-L polyethylene glycol and ascorbic acid preparation for colonoscopy in routine clinical practice in Spain.

Gastroenterology , Hospital Universitario Clínico San Carlos, Spain.
Background And Aims: large clinical trials and small real-world studies show that a 1-L polyethylene glycol and ascorbic acid solution (1-L PEG-ASC) is an effective and safe bowel preparation for colonoscopy. Here, the effectiveness and safety of 1-L PEG-ASC was evaluated in a large cohort of patients in routine clinical practice in Spain.
Methods: a sub-analysis was performed in an observational, multicenter, retrospective study assessing the effectiveness and safety of 1-L PEG-ASC in adult patients undergoing a colonoscopy at ten centers in Spain.

Introduction: Tumor budding (TB), defined as the presence of individual neoplastic cells or isolated groups of up to 4 cells at the front of tumor invasion, has become an adverse prognostic marker in colorectal cancer (CRC) in recent decades. The prognostic impact of TB in CRC remains not clearly defined and histological methods for its evaluation vary depending on the center. The objective of this study is to investigate the association between TB and CRC, in terms of oncological evolution and pathological stage.

Arrhythmia Unit, Cardiology Department, Hospital Universitario Quirón-Salud Madrid and Hospital Universitario Ruber Juan Bravo, Madrid, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the diagnostic role of cannon A waves, often linked to atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT), in differentiating types of supraventricular tachycardias (SVTs).
- Researchers included 100 patients and recorded their jugular venous pulse and central venous pressure (CVP) during an electrophysiology study, focusing on a comparison between short and long VA interval tachycardias.
- Results indicated that while cannon A waves were not significantly linked to AVNRT specifically, they strongly correlated with the diagnosis of short VA interval tachycardias, and there was a notable increase in CVP associated with these types of tachycardias.
Guided Genioplasty: Comparison between Conventional Technique and Customized Guided Surgery.

Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Hospital Universitario Ruber Juan Bravo, 28006 Madrid, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- Genioplasty is a popular maxillofacial surgery technique that can be enhanced by modern technology, such as virtual surgical planning (VSP) and custom cutting guides.
- A study treated 43 patients, comparing traditional genioplasty to the advanced VSP method, with results showing that VSP reduced operation time significantly (42.24 min vs 60.06 min for conventional).
- The advanced technique also improved accuracy in chin rotation cases and led to fewer surgical complications, making it a preferable option for patients.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón, 28007 Madrid, Spain.
Background: The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), in its 8th edition, introduces modifications to the previous TNM classification, incorporating tumour depth of invasion (DOI). The aim of this research is to analyse the prognosis (in terms of disease-free survival and overall survival) of clinical early stage (I and II) squamous cell carcinomas of the oral tongue according to the DOI levels established by the AJCC in its latest TNM classification to assess changes to the T category and global staging system and to evaluate the association between DOI and other histological risk factors.
Methods: A retrospective longitudinal observational study of a series of cases was designed.
