High prevalence of loss of Claudin‐18 expression in invasive non‐mucinous lung adenocarcinoma: Potential diagnostic implications in routine practice

Histopathology, EarlyView.
Loss of Claudin‐18 (Cldn18) expression is a frequent and specific feature of non‐mucinous lung adenocarcinoma (NM‐LUAD). Cldn18 immunohistochemistry may serve as an ancillary tool for distinguishing malignant from non‐neoplastic alveolar epithelium, as well as for differentiating NM‐LUADs with mucin production from M‐LUADs, particularly in small or ...

Forward‐Viewing Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Fine‐Needle Biopsy for a Hypopharyngeal Carcinoma Mimicking a Subepithelial Lesion: A Case Report

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Subepithelial lesions (SELs) of the head and neck have a low diagnostic yield with mucosal biopsy and carry a bleeding risk. Among endoscopic ultrasound–tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA) techniques, fine‐needle biopsy (FNB) provides higher specimen adequacy and diagnostic accuracy than fine‐needle aspiration (FNA).

Bone Marrow Involvement in Sarcoidosis: A Case Report of Granulomatous and Hematologic Complications

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Bone marrow involvement in sarcoidosis is rare and poorly understood. This case highlights the hematologic complexity of sarcoidosis, including its association with aplastic anemia and T‐cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T‐LGLL). We report a 70‐year‐old male with longstanding sarcoidosis who developed multiple hematologic complications,

Idiopathic dendriform pulmonary ossification diagnosed only after a surgical biopsy: A case report

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports
Idiopathic dendriform pulmonary ossification (IDPO) presents as dendritic ossification of the lungs without a particular cause. IDPO is often diagnosed using surgical biopsy, transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB), or transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC). In

Complications in Transbronchial Lung Biopsy

The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 1987
Transbronchial lung biopsy was performed in 68 patients with various lung diseases. As an inital diagnostic procedure in diffuse and localized lung diseases, trasbronchial lung biopsy offers an attractive alternative to open lung biopsy. Recently imporvement in the development of medical technology has greatly facilitated this technique, but it must be
