Retroperitoneal fibrosis in the era of immunoglobulin G4-related disease
Background Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare disease characterized by fibroinflammatory tissue in the periaortic or periiliac retroperitoneum, where it frequently encases ureters. There is emerging evidence that a subset of this disease is part of

Fat and fibrosis as confounding cofactors in viscoelastic measurements of the liver [PDF]
Elastography provides significant information on staging of fibrosis in patients with liver disease and may be of some value in assessing steatosis. However, there remain questions as to the role of steatosis and fibrosis as cofactors influencing the viscoelastic measurements of the liver tissues, particularly shear wave speed (SWS) and shear wave ...

Non-invasive Liver Fibrosis Screening on CT Images using Radiomics [PDF]
Objectives: To develop and evaluate a radiomics machine learning model for detecting liver fibrosis on CT of the liver. Methods: For this retrospective, single-centre study, radiomic features were extracted from Regions of Interest (ROIs) on CT images of patients who underwent simultaneous liver biopsy and CT examinations.

Retroperitoneal fibrosis and β-blocking agents:Is there an association? [PDF]
AIM: Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare chronic fibro-inflammatory disorder which may be secondary to certain drugs, including beta-blocking agents (BBAs). However, their causative role is unclear. We aimed to investigate this association. METHODS:

Malignancies and immunoglobulin G4‐related disease
Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is associated with increased cancer risk. Malignancies affect both IgG4‐RD involved organs, such as the lung, pancreas, bile duct, and prostate, and noninvolved organs, such as the gastrointestinal duct. B‐cell neoplasms constitute a proportion of the malignancies linked to this disease.

Idiopathic Retroperitoneal Fibrosis
The world of surgery has been concerned with idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) ever since 1948, when J. K. Ormond published the first case of ureteral stenosis following a retroperitoneal scleroinflammatory process due to unknown reasons. Until 1960, 82 such cases were reported in the literature.

Mediastinal and retroperitoneal fibrosis as a manifestation of breast cancer metastasis
Rationale: Mediastinal and retroperitoneal fibrosis as a manifestation of metastasis from malignancies is rare disease and particularly, cases of mediastinal fibrosis have been rarely reported. Patient concerns: A 60-year-old woman presented with dyspnea
