Cardiac Myxoma- Surgical treatment and outcome
Background & Objectives: Cardiac Myxomas include benign and malignant neoplasms, arising within the cardiac chambers or in the myocardium. Because, it is a rare tumor of the heart, there seems a lack of adequate data and its recent optimal treatment ...

Rare presentation of an atrial myxoma in an adolescent patient: A case report and literature review [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cardiac tumors are uncommon in the pediatric population. When present, cardiac manifestations stem from the tumor causing inflow or outflow obstruction.

Future Needs in Mast Cell Biology. [PDF]
The pathophysiological roles of mast cells are still not fully understood, over 140 years since their description by Paul Ehrlich in 1878. Initial studies have attempted to identify distinct "subpopulations" of mast cells based on a relatively small ...

A Case of Primary Cardiac B-cell Lymphoma Diagnosed with Cardiac MRI
Primary cardiac tumors account for only 0.3% of all cardiac tumors; of these, lymphomas account for only 2% of all primary cardiac tumors. Cardiac lymphomas have a grim prognosis, often less than 1 year due to delays in diagnosis and treatment.

Compete to Win: Enhancing Pseudo Labels for Barely-supervised Medical Image Segmentation [PDF]
This study investigates barely-supervised medical image segmentation where only few labeled data, i.e., single-digit cases are available. We observe the key limitation of the existing state-of-the-art semi-supervised solution cross pseudo supervision is the unsatisfactory precision of foreground classes, leading to a degenerated result under barely ...

Volumetric medical image segmentation through dual self-distillation in U-shaped networks [PDF]
U-shaped networks and its variants have demonstrated exceptional results for medical image segmentation. In this paper, we propose a novel dual self-distillation (DSD) framework in U-shaped networks for volumetric medical image segmentation. DSD distills knowledge from the ground-truth segmentation labels to the decoder layers.

Liver Transplantation for Alagille's Syndrome [PDF]
Twenty-three children with Alagille's syndrome and end-stage liver disease underwent liver transplantation with cyclosporine and low-dose steroid immunosuppression. Two to 9 years (mean, 4.4 years) after surgery, 13 (57%) of the children were still alive,
