Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Cytologic Findings in Esophageal Perforation: An Institutional Experience With Pleural Fluid Specimens

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 429-435, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Esophageal perforation (EP) is a rare but life‐threatening condition, and most cases are due to iatrogenic causes. The rest occur spontaneously, due to malignancies, or trauma. The mortality rates can approach 50%, and delayed diagnosis of EP exacerbates patient outcomes.

Pneumorrhachis with Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum: Should It Raise Special Concerns?

Oman Medical Journal, 2018
Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is a rare and benign condition predominantly seen in young males. Patients present with non-specific pleuritic chest pain, cough, and dyspnea. Hence, it is difficult to diagnose in the acute setting until other serious

Dysphagia Revealing Pulmonary Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Successful Palliation With Esophageal Stenting in an Elderly Patient

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Fluoroscopic control after deployement of a partially covered esophageal self‐expandable metallic stent (12.5 cm × 20 mm), demonstrating adequate expansion across the stenotic segment. ABSTRACT In elderly patients, a smooth concentric esophageal stricture with normal mucosa should raise suspicion of extraesophageal causes, prompting cross‐sectional ...

Calvarium Penetration From Intracranial Metastasis of Pulmonary Small Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In high‐risk lung cancer patients, new neurological symptoms—such as stroke‐like deficits or headaches—should raise suspicion for metastatic disease, even in the absence of changes in pulmonary symptoms, as metastases may present as small, benign‐appearing masses that mimic lipomas.
