    Abstract Objective: A thymoma is a rare tumor of the anterior mediastinum and may be under the control of prolactin and growth hormone (GH), as well as GH-insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)-mediated paracrine and autocrine pathways. The following case report highlights the unexpected outcome in a patient with a mediastinal thymoma after pituitary surgery for a GH-producing macroadenoma.
    Methods: A 58-year-old Caucasian man with a history of acromegaly caused by a pituitary macroadenoma presented with a mediastinal thymoma (proven by biopsy). The thymoma was monitored annually by imaging studies, as the patient was asymptomatic and had declined surgery. The octreotide scan was negative and tests ruled out a GH-releasing hormone (GHRH)-producing tumor. Transsphenoidal surgery for removal of the pituitary tumor was performed.
    Results: Following surgery, the patient's IGF-1 levels normalized and GH was adequately suppressed in an oral glucose tolerance test. Follow-up imaging after 6 weeks and 10 months of surgery showed the absence of a pituitary tumor and a marked reduction in size of the mediastinal thymoma.
    Conclusion: In a patient with acromegaly and a thymoma, surgical treatment of the GH-producing tumor might be expected to cause a reduction in thymoma size. Therefore, such tumors in patients with acromegaly may simply be monitored clinically.

    Abstract Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common cause of hypercalcemia in an outpatient setting. Most patients are asymptomatic with mild hypercalcemia and only require periodic follow-up. Symptomatic patients and those with end-organ damage should undergo surgery according to the National Institutes of Health guidelines. No medical therapy has been approved for treatment of this disorder. Treatment with bisphosphonate, calcimimetic drugs, or alcohol ablation techniques has been used in select patients.

    Abstract Primary hyperparathyroidism is commonly due to a single, sporadic parathyroid adenoma, and surgery is considered the treatment of choice based on guidelines established by the National Institutes of Health consensus panel. While there is no established medical therapy for this condition, pharmacotherapy with agents such as cinacalcet could be a preferred alternative in a subset of patients with persistent hypercalcemia after one or more surgical interventions.

    Abstract Amiodarone is a potent antiarrhythmic drug associated with thyroid dysfunction. Its high iodine content causes inhibition of 5'-deiodinase activity. Most patients remain euthyroid. Amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT) or amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism (AIH) may occur depending on the iodine status of individuals and prior thyroid disease. AIT is caused by excess iodine-induced thyroid hormone synthesis (type I AIT) or by destructive thyroiditis (type II AIT). If the medical condition allows it, discontinuation of the drug is recommended in type I AIT. Otherwise, large doses of thioamides are required. Type II AIT is treated with corticosteroids. Mixed cases require a combination of both drugs. Potassium perchlorate has been used to treat resistant cases of type I AIT but use is limited by toxicity. Thyroidectomy, plasmapheresis, lithium, and radioiodine are used in select cases of AIT. AIH is successfully treated with levothyroxine. Screening for thyroid disease before starting amiodarone and periodic monitoring of thyroid function tests are advocated.

    Abstract Cellular collection is an important and increasingly used apheresis procedure. These collections are performed by leukocytapheresis, a procedure involving the removal of a patient's or donor's white blood cells, and are used to collect hematopoietic progenitor cells, specific cell populations (such as T-lymphocytes), and granulocytes. Hematopoietic progenitor cell apheresis and T-lymphocyte collection are performed by procedures that enrich for mononuclear cells. Hematopoietic progenitor cells are used for autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, whereas T-cell collection is being used increasingly in novel cellular therapy approaches and for donor lymphocyte infusions to induce graft-versus-leukemia effect. Granulocytes are collected from healthy donors to treat severe sepsis in patients who are refractory to antimicrobial therapies. Less frequently, cellular depletion of leukocytes may be indicated in leukemic patients who have severe hyperleukocytosis resulting in leukoaggregation and decreased tissue perfusion. In these procedures, establishing and maintaining adequate vascular access are critical prerequisites to ensuring a successful procedure. For most types of leukocytapheresis procedures, efforts should be made to ensure that they are performed using peripheral veins, and the use of an intravascular access device should be considered only after it is determined that peripheral access is not feasible or desirable. However, in some settings (such as in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation), intravascular access devices are often used to facilitate both the leukocytapheresis procedure and the subsequent transplant. Here, different types of vascular access approaches used in cellular collections are discussed, and this information is supplemented by the author's experience and practice in areas where published information is limited.
