Advancing Tumor Treatment Through Artificial Intelligence and Mathematical Modeling: A Comprehensive Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Solid tumors emerge from uncontrolled cell division and interactions with neighboring cells that influence their growth and resistance to therapy. Anti‐cancer drugs are developed to disrupt these processes, but they often damage healthy cells, making treatment difficult to manage safely and effectively. As the global cancer

Successful Diagnostic Confirmation of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma With Extensive Pleural Adhesions Using Pleural Cryobiopsy Under Local Anaesthesia

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Pleural cryobiopsy under local anaesthesia enabled definitive diagnosis of malignant pleural mesothelioma despite extensive pleural adhesions. Careful preoperative assessment and precise lesion localisation allowed safe and minimally invasive tissue acquisition in a high‐risk patient.

Robotic‐Assisted Epiphrenic and Mid‐Oesophageal Diverticulectomy: A Tertiary Centre Experience

The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Surgical management of oesophageal pulsion diverticula is advised when symptoms significantly impair quality of life. Robotics can aid in transhiatal dissection in diverticulectomy, but available evidence is limited. Methods A retrospective chart review of all consecutive robotic‐assisted oesophageal diverticulectomies with Heller ...

New challenge in double-bore medical thoracoscopy in Fayoum University Hospital

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis
Background Thoracoscopy is an invasive technique. When other, less intrusive techniques are ineffective at providing a diagnosis in the case of pleural exudates, thoracoscopy should be employed. The diagnostic and therapeutic thoracoscopy methods used by

Perirectal injection of imaging materials for computed tomographic lymphography and near infrared fluorescent thoracoscopy in cats

Veterinární Medicína, 2019
For the treatment of chylothorax, the most common procedure is a thoracic duct ligation; however, recurrence of the issue is often common, generally due to the incomplete ligation of all thoracic duct tributaries.

Computed tomography findings of peritoneal tumour in the absence of primary lesions: preliminary study

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 8, Page 532-537, August 2026.
Primary peritoneal tumours are uncommon and include mesothelioma and carcinoma. Mesothelioma identification is challenging, as there are no established rapid diagnostic methods. In the absence of a simple means of diagnosis, evaluation often requires several invasive biopsies, highlighting the need to develop a definitive diagnostic method.

Application of ultrasound-guided medical thoracoscopy in patients with small amounts or without pleural effusion

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Pleural disease is a common clinical condition, and some patients present with a small amount of pleural effusion or no pleural effusion. It is difficult to diagnose such patients in clinical practice. Medical thoracoscopy is the gold standard

Are respiratory physicians adherent to guidelines when evaluating pulmonary nodules?

Internal Medicine Journal, Volume 56, Issue 8, Page 1412-1420, August 2026.
Abstract Introduction Although fewer than 1% of pulmonary nodules are malignant, appropriate evaluation is essential in optimising patient outcomes. The 2017 Fleischner Society Guidelines provide recommendations on management of incidentally detected nodules; however, studies to date have shown variable guideline adherence.
