Life‐Threatening Esophageal Injury From Sword Swallowing, Courage and Caution in Respecting Life: A Case Study of an 18‐Year‐Old Acrobat

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT An 18‐year‐old acrobat suffered esophageal perforation during sword swallowing. Preoperative CT showed pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema, but no perforation location. A novel endoscopic technique using a clear cap and air/water shutoff successfully localized a 1.0 cm posterior esophageal perforation without active bleeding, enabling

Acute Radiation Esophagitis After Chemoradiotherapy Demonstrating “Tube‐Like” FDG Uptake on PET‐CT: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Radiation esophagitis (RE) is a frequent complication of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its acute‐phase imaging features on positron emission tomography‐computed tomography (PET‐CT) are rarely described in detail.

Real‐World Outcomes of Repeat Ablation Strategies for Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From the Japanese Catheter Ablation Registry

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 41, Issue 5, October 2025.
Patients who underwent second or later ablation procedures for AF were analyzed. In total, 41% of patients underwent re‐PVI only; conversely, both of re‐PVI and left atrial additional ablation were performed for 38% of patients. As the number of additional ablations increased, the overall complication rate also increased.

Feasibility of Hybriding Very High‐Power Short‐Duration and Ablation Index‐Guided Pulmonary Vein Isolation

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 41, Issue 5, October 2025.
Compared to conventional Ablation Index (AI)‐guided ablation, the hybrid AI + very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) strategy significantly reduced pulmonary vein isolation time (28 ± 11 vs. 35 ± 10 min, p < 0.001), with comparable first‐pass isolation (86% vs. 89%, p = 0.63), acute reconnection (10% vs. 5%, p = 0.23), complication rates (1.3% vs. 1.3%)

Pill Shape Determines Esophageal Transit Times—A Pill‐to‐Pill Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 10, Page 3588-3593, October 2025.
Shape of pills differ, affecting how easy it is to swallow them. We compared esophageal transit times of a round pill with an oval pill demonstrating in both healthy and symptomatic adults, that the oval pill demonstrated a significantly shorter transit time.

Prevalence of Esophageal Webs in Patients Undergoing Direct Laryngoscopy

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 10, Page 3594-3599, October 2025.
PES webs may be more common than what is traditionally cited in the literature. The prevalence of PES webs in this retrospective cohort study was found to be 34%. Webs may be more likely in patients with a history of irradiation to the head and neck, and only one‐third of patients with a PES web in our cohort had dysphagia symptoms.
