1. Disseminated intravascular coagulation after cryoablation for metastatic pancreatic cancer: a case report.
PMID:日期:2023-06-06Pancreatic cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Despite advancements in surgery and chemoradiation therapies, pancreatic cancer has a 5-year survival rate of only 11% in the United States. Cryoablation is emerging as a new and effective therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer and symptom palliation in metastatic disease. To our knowledge, the occurrence of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) after cryoablation is rare. A 47-year-old woman with no significant past medical history was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and underwent a Whipple procedure followed by chemotherapy with gemcitabine and paclitaxel. Due to the abdominal lymph nodes, peritoneum, right femur, and surrounding soft tissue metastases, she received systemic palliative chemotherapy with gemcitabine and paclitaxel and underwent right femur tumor excision, open reduction, and internal fixation, followed by radiation therapy. She continued to have persistent pain and underwent palliative percutaneous cryoablation of the metastatic tumor under computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound guidance. Immediately post procedure, she developed slow but continuous blood oozing at the ablation site, which was difficult to control despite compression dressings, reinforcement sutures, and local thrombin powder. The patient was transferred to the intensive care unit where she was noted to be hypotensive and tachycardic, with petechiae in both lower extremities. Laboratory studies were consistent with DIC and peripheral blood smear revealed multiple schistocytes. CT angiogram of the right lower extremity did not show any bleeding vessel amenable to embolization. She was transfused red blood cells, platelets, fresh frozen plasma, and cryoprecipitate. Despite multiple daily transfusions, she continued to have pain and remained persistently thrombocytopenic and coagulopathic. After discussion with the patient and her family, she chose to transition to comfort care measures and died. DIC is an unusual but life-threatening complication of advanced pancreatic cancer.

2. A narrative review of genetic biomarkers in non-small cell lung cancer: an update and future perspectives.
PMID:日期:2023-02-02Lung cancer has long been the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Lung cancer has a poor prognosis, and our understanding of who will maximally benefit from different therapies is incomplete. This article discusses genetic biomarkers that may help in this regard. From origin until February 25, 2022, PubMed database was searched for terms "non-small cell lung cancer", "genomics" and "biomarker", with special attention paid to literature published within the past 10 years. Search was language restricted to English. Additional literature was identified through hand searches of the references of retrieved literature. The most robustly described biomarkers for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are assessment of specific gene mutations. These are currently used in clinical practice for both prediction and prognostication. Abnormal mutation status of and -NFE2L2 are associated with poor response to radiotherapy (RT), and STK11/LKB1 is further associated with resistance to PD-L1 immunotherapy. Abnormal TP53 is associated with decreased benefit from cisplatin in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). In terms of prognostication, RB1 mutations are associated with decreased overall survival (OS) in NSCLC and KEAP1-NFE2L2 mutations are associated with increased local recurrence (LR).Additional work has focused on gene expression levels, as well as analysis of genetic factors and signaling molecules affecting the tumor microenvironment (TME). High levels of Rad51c and NFE2L2 are associated with resistance to chemotherapy, and high Rad51c levels are further associated with resistance to RT. High nuclear expression of β-catenin has additionally been associated with poor RT response. Further, there is increasing evidence that some long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may play a crucial role in regulation of tumor radiosensitivity. Much of this work has had promising early results but will require further validation before routine clinical use. Finally, there is evidence that quantification of some signaling molecules and microRNAs (miRNAs) may have clinical utility in predicting adverse outcomes in RT. An improved understanding of tumor genetics in NSCLC has led to the development of targeted therapies and improved prognostication. As more work is done in this field, more and more genetic biomarkers will become candidates for clinical use. Much work will be required to validate these findings in the clinical setting.

3. 3D printing for airway disease.
PMID:日期:2019-02-13It has been 30 years since the first commercial three-dimensional (3D) printer was available on market. The technological advancement of 3D printing has far exceeded its implementation in medicine. The application of 3D printing technology has the potential of playing a major role within interventional pulmonology; specifically, in the management of complex airway disease. Tailoring management to the patient-specific anatomical malformation caused by benign or malignant disease is a major challenge faced by interventional pulmonologists. Such cases often require adjunctive therapeutic procedures with thermal therapies followed by dilation and airway stenting to maintain the patency of the airway. Airway-stent size matching is one key to reducing stent-related complications. A major barrier to matching is the expansion of the stent in two dimensions (fixed sizes in length and diameter) within the deformed airway. Additional challenges are created by the subjective oversizing of the stent to reduce the likelihood of migration. Improper sizing adversely affects the stability of the stent. The stent-airway mismatch can be complicated by airway erosion, perforation, or the formation of granulation tissue. Stents can migrate, fracture, obstruct, or become infected. The use of patient-specific 3D printed airway stents may be able to reduce the stent airway mismatch. These stents allow more precise stent-airway sizing and minimizes high-pressure points on distorted airway anatomy. In theory, this should reduce the incidence of the well-known complications of factory manufactured stents. In this article, the authors present the brief history of 3D printed stents, their consideration in select patients, processing steps for development, and future direction.
