    Abstract Background: Although thoracic surgeons occasionally encounter dense adhesions of interlobar lymph node anthracosilicosis with the pulmonary artery, adhesiolysis may be challenging. Besides, characteristic microscopic features of the adherent lesion remain limited.
    Case presentation: During a thoracoscopic right upper lobectomy of a patient with stage IA3 primary lung adenocarcinoma, several interlobar lymph nodes adhered to the posterior ascending branch of the pulmonary artery to the right upper lobe were noted. After an unplanned conversion to a thoracotomy to avoid massive bleeding, the pulmonary artery branch was safely isolated. Microscopic examination revealed lymph node anthracosilicosis proximal to the peripheral pulmonary artery wall, with granulomatous inflammation. The adventitial stroma of the pulmonary artery developed into dense and borderless fibrous tissue with dust-laden macrophages.
    Conclusions: Our pathological findings on lymph node anthracosilicosis provide substantial evidence that adhesions between lymph nodes and the pulmonary artery walls may develop into dense and borderless fibrous tissue. This finding would remind thoracic surgeons that adhesiolysis could cause injury to the pulmonary artery.

    Abstract Van der Waals layered transition-metal chalcogenides are drawing significant attention owing to their intriguing physical properties. This group of materials consists of abundant members with various elements, having a variety of different structures. However, they are all crystalline materials, and the physical properties of van der Waals layered quasicrystals have never been studied to date. Here, we report on the discovery of superconductivity in a van der Waals layered quasicrystal of Ta

    Abstract In our previous study, we found that dry-preserved multilayered fibroblast cell sheets promoted angiogenesis and wound healing in a mouse ulcer model by releasing high levels of intracellular fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), from dried cells. In the present study, to identify which cell types are suitable for human dry-preserved cell sheets (dry sheets), we compared the intracellular FGF2 levels in seven types of cells reported as cell sheets for clinical use or preclinical studies. FGF2 levels were high in mesenchymal cells, including human oral fibroblasts (HOFs) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), and human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs); in contrast, FGF2 levels in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs), human skeletal muscle myoblasts (SkMMs), and human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) were remarkably low, approximately 25% those in fibroblasts. In addition, we prepared dry sheets from HOFs, DPSCs, and MSCs, and analyzed the growth factors released from each dry sheet upon rehydration. High levels of FGF2, HGF, and VEGF were detected in the eluate prepared by immersing each dry sheet. In particular, FGF2 and HGF were the most abundant in HOFs. An

    Abstract Surgical approaches for traumatic diaphragmatic hernia include transabdominal, transthoracic, and thoracoabdominal. Selection of the optimal approach depends on the timing and organ damage, often minimally invasive approaches with laparoscopy or thoracoscopy are performed. A 47-year-old man with blunt chest trauma was diagnosed with left traumatic diaphragmatic hernia 1 month after the trauma. The prolapsed omentum was detached from the chest wall and around the hernia orifice and returned to the abdominal cavity by coordinated thoracoscopic and laparoscopic manipulations. The 4 × 2 cm herniation in the diaphragm was sutured closed from the thoracic side while preventing re-prolapse of the omentum and abdominal organs from the abdominal side. A combined thoracoscopic and laparoscopic approach can be effective in confirming organ damage, repositioning of prolapsed organs, and safe repair of the diaphragm in latent traumatic diaphragmatic hernia.

    Abstract Purpose: Ventricular septal perforation (VSP) is a critical complication of acute myocardial infarction. Various surgical procedures for it have been developed; however, surgical outcomes remain unsatisfactory. In 2010, we introduced geometrical infarct exclusion (GIE) as a modification of the Komeda-David technique. This retrospective study compared the surgical outcomes of our geometric infarct exclusion technique to those of other surgical procedures.
    Methods: This study included 38 patients who underwent surgery for VSP. They were divided into patients who underwent GIE (GIE group; n = 17) and those who underwent other procedures (non-GIE group; n = 21). The clinical outcomes of the two groups were compared.
    Results: Operation, cardiopulmonary bypass, and cardiac arrest times in the GIE group were significantly longer than those in the non-GIE group (p <0.001). A residual shunt was observed in one patient (5.8%) in the GIE group and eight (38.0%) in the non-GIE group (p = 0.026). No patients in the GIE group required a reoperation for the residual shut, while two patients required it in the non-GIE group (p = 0.492). Operative mortality was insignificantly different between the two groups.
    Conclusion: Geometric infarct exclusion has a longer procedural time than does other surgical procedures but can reduce the rates of residual shunts and reoperations.

    Abstract Introduction: We previously demonstrated the usefulness of combining stitching with covering to seal alveolar air leaks in an animal model. This study aimed to clarify the effectiveness and feasibility of this sealing method in the clinical setting.
    Methods: Data of 493 patients who underwent thoracoscopic anatomical resection between 2013 and 2020 for lung cancer were retrospectively reviewed. Prolonged air leak was defined as chest drain placement lasting 5 d or longer due to air leak. Until July 2017 (early study period), we covered air leaks using mesh. However, for sealing (late study period), we additionally stitched leaks with pledget in patients at high risk of prolonged air leak. The pneumostasis procedure, intraoperative confirmation test of pneumostasis, and chest tube management were uniform during both periods.
    Results: The incidence of prolonged air leak was significantly lower in the late than in the early period (3.6% versus 12.5%), whereas pulmonary emphysema was more severe in the late period compared to the early period. Intraoperative failure of sealing air leaks was significantly reduced in the late period than in the early period. In both univariate and propensity score matching analysis, the study period was a significant predictor of prolonged air leak.
    Conclusions: The combination of stitching and covering with mesh may contribute to reducing prolonged air leak incidence in patients undergoing thoracoscopic anatomical lung resection for lung cancer.
