Article Abstract
Hemangiomas are uncommon benign tumors of the mediastinum. The definite diagnosis is sometimes difficult to make because of usually nonspecific features on single-phase contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) images. We described a 60-year-old woman suffering from a neck mass with progressive enlargement. On the dynamic CT study, the tumor showed peripheral nodular enhancement on early phase images and progressive centripetal fill-in on delayed phase images. Hemangioma was preoperatively diagnosed on the basis of this characteristic CT appearance.

Geometric Aging of the Thoracic Aorta: Insights From 2 Large Cohorts.
Hypertension
September 2025
Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia (C.B., H.T., J.A.C.).
Background: Aortic structural degeneration occurs with aging; however, 3-dimensional geometric remodeling has not been well characterized in large populations.
Methods: We segmented the thoracic aorta from magnetic resonance images of 56 164 UKB (UK Biobank) participants and computed tomography images of 9417 PMBB (Penn Medicine Biobank) participants. We quantified structural measurements of elongation, dilation, tortuosity, and curvature across the thoracic aorta.
Factors influencing diagnostic yield and complication risk in computed tomography fluoroscopy-guided lung biopsies: a 10-year single-center study.

Purpose: Computed tomography fluoroscopy (CTF)-guided biopsy is an established technique for sampling pulmonary lesions, particularly with the growing prevalence of lung nodule screening programs. This study investigated procedural and lesion-related factors affecting success and complication rates in routine CTF-guided lung core-needle biopsies at a tertiary center.
Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous CTF-guided lung biopsies over a 10-year period (2007-2016) were retrospectively analyzed.
[Traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst].

Service des Urgences, CHC MontLégia, Liège, Belgique.
Traumatic pulmonary pseudocysts (TPPs) are rare but clinically relevant complications of thoracic trauma, often misdiagnosed due to their non-specific presentation and resemblance to other cavitary pulmonary lesions. We report the case of a 26-year-old male presenting with delayed symptoms following a fall, ultimately diagnosed with multiple TPPs via thoracic CT scan. The patient experienced a favourable evolution with conservative management, including aerosolized tranexamic acid for minor hemoptysis.

Radical esophagectomy remains the cornerstone of curative treatment for esophageal cancer, but is frequently complicated by postoperative events, most notably anastomotic leakage. Anastomotic leakage, occurring in up to 30% of cases, is multifactorial in origin and significantly increases morbidity and mortality. This review aims to summarize current management strategies, highlight emerging therapies, and identify persistent clinical challenges related to this complication.

BACKGROUND Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, often diagnosed late in resource-limited settings. The diagnosis is made through a combination of clinical ophthalmologic examination, B-mode ultrasound, and histopathological study. This report details a case of a 67-year-old woman with progressive vision loss and ocular pain due to an inferomedial uveal melanoma to highlight therapeutic limitations from delayed diagnosis.
