Robotic Resection With Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Perfusion Chemotherapy for Thymoma Recurrence

Case Reports in Oncological Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Thymoma recurrence with pleural dissemination remains a therapeutic challenge, often requiring multimodal treatment strategies. Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) has emerged as a promising approach for selected patients; however, reports using minimally invasive robotic platforms are limited.

Thymoma‐Associated Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Myasthenia Gravis

Case Reports in Rheumatology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Thymomas, rare tumors originating from thymic epithelial cells, can disrupt immune tolerance and contribute to the development of autoimmune diseases. While thymomas are commonly associated with myasthenia gravis (MG), their link to autoimmune rheumatic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is less frequently observed.

Severe Fibrosing Pleuritis Secondary to Chronic Chylothorax in a Domestic Cat

Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Fibrosing pleuritis is a serious respiratory complication associated with chronic inflammation of the pleura, which leads to pleural thickening, atelectasis, or pulmonary entrapment, and an unfavorable prognosis. In cats, it is rare and is mainly caused by chylothorax—an effusion that is particularly irritating to the thoracic cavity.

Phenotype characterization of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in medical device and surgical trials

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 3878-3898, December 2025.
This systematic review identified 24 clinical trials of medical device and surgical interventions for HFpEF, with 16 demonstrating at least safety and feasibility, but little evidence of long‐term benefit. Phenotype‐based responses suggest that certain interventions may benefit specific HFpEF subgroups, yet most trials suffered from heterogeneous ...
