Purpose: Crohn's disease (CD) is characterized by enteric inflammation, often resulting in strictures and penetrating complications, which may alter patient management prior to the initiation of biologic therapy. Our aim is to assess the frequency of missed stricturing and internal penetrating complications in CD patients on computed tomography enterography (CTE) and magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) performed prior to anti-TNF therapy.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients from two tertiary centers who underwent CTE\MRE within six months before starting anti-TNF therapy.

Rationale: Tracheomalacia, typically seen in relapsing polychondritis,[1] is rarely reported in association with congenital heart disease (CHD). In patients with pulmonary hypoperfusion-type CHD, surgical repair results in a rapid increase in pulmonary blood flow, predisposing them to mucus retention, airway obstruction, and respiratory distress. We describe acute airway collapse in a patient with double outlet right ventricle and congenital bronchial stenosis following cardiac repair.

Aims: There is a lack of data from randomized clinical trials comparing treatment outcomes between conduction system pacing (CSP) modalities and biventricular pacing (BVP) in symptomatic patients with refractory atrial fibrillation (AF) scheduled for atrioventricular node ablation (AVNA). The CONDUCT-AF investigates whether CSP is non-inferior to BVP in improving left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and clinical outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients with symptomatic AF undergoing AVNA.
Methods: This study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, randomized, multicentre clinical trial conducted across 10 European centres, enrolling 82 patients with symptomatic AF, HF with reduced LVEF, and narrow QRS.

We report a unique case of bilateral femoral stem fractures in a patient with Dorr A femoral morphology, underscoring the need for a critical reassessment of implant selection strategies. The initial failure involved a cemented revision stem placed using the cement-within-cement technique combined with an extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO). A second revision was subsequently performed using a cortical window osteotomy and a distally fixed uncemented stem, which resulted in successful recovery.

Foundation models (FM) offer a promising alternative to supervised deep learning (DL) by enabling greater flexibility and generalizability without relying on large, labeled datasets. This study investigates the performance of supervised DL models and pre-trained FM embeddings in classifying radiographic features related to knee osteoarthritis. We analyzed 44,985 knee radiographs from the Osteoarthritis Initiative dataset.
