Epicardial Lipomatosis as a Cause of Constrictive Pericarditis
Case Reports in Cardiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Epicardial lipomatosis is a rare cause of constrictive pericarditis. There is a paucity of literature on the condition, and it is possible that it may be missed in contemporary clinical practice. Herein, we report two patients with epicardial lipomatosis who presented with traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

Pericardial Metaplastic Ossification With Widespread Bone Formation: A Case Report
Case Reports in Pathology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Pericardial disease can present clinically as acute pericarditis, pericardial effusion, cardiac tamponade, and constrictive pericarditis (CP). Pericardial calcification is present in less than 25% of all cases of CP, and patients with this finding are at risk for developing additional cardiac complications.

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.
