Endoscopic Ultrasound–Guided Diagnosis of Mediastinal Ectopic Thyroid in a High‐Risk Elderly Male
Ectopic thyroid tissue (ETT) is a rare condition that predominantly affects women, often during periods of hormonal stimulation. Mediastinal involvement is even more uncommon. We present a case of ETT in a male patient with atypical demographics and a history of renal cell carcinoma, presenting as a large mediastinal mass measuring 6.0 × 4.6 × 4.5 cm ...

Changes in ocular alignment following parabulbar betamethasone in myasthenia gravis. Paired images obtained before and after parabulbar betamethasone (0.5 mL per eye; April 22 and May 6, 2025) demonstrate improved horizontal alignment and reduction of vertical deviations in primary gaze, upgaze, right gaze, and left gaze.

The ninth edition TNM system shows improved prognostic accuracy for RFS in thymic epithelial tumors, particularly in T1b versus T1a patients. The ninth edition outperforms the eighth in model fit and predictive power for both RFS and OS. ABSTRACT Objectives The optimal staging system for thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) remains controversial. This study

In a matched study of 417 patients per group, LIATS for anterior mediastinal tumors resection had a significantly shorter operative time than SATS (75 ± 34 vs. 112 ± 43 min; p < 0.001), with no difference in postoperative pain. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the short‐term clinical outcomes of subxiphoid approach thoracoscopic surgery (
