    Abstract The implantation of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) carries a risk for major complications, one of which is ventricular free wall rupture secondary to a lead perforation. This known complication, although rare, has estimated incidence rates between 0.1% and 3%. Predictive factors of such an event include temporary leads, steroid use, active fixation leads, low body mass index (<20 kg/m

    Abstract Prostate cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death among US men. Metastasis typically occurs in the bone, lymph nodes, liver, and thorax. This case highlights a patient who was suspected of having prostate cancer several years before presenting to the emergency department with back pain and an umbilical hernia of increasing size. Gross examination revealed fixed masses on the abdominal wall that appeared malignant on computed tomographic imaging. The umbilical mass was a Sister Mary Joseph nodule (SMJN), which is sometimes found in patients with advanced, metastatic abdominal cancer. An SMJN is most commonly suggestive of gastrointestinal or gynecologic cancer, but it is a rarely reported finding in the context of prostate cancer. SMJN is a frequently missed finding that may delay further investigation for malignant neoplasms. This case reinforces the importance of this physical examination finding and provides evidence for adding prostate cancer to the list of possible diagnoses for patients who have an SMJN.

    Abstract Objective: To present a case of bilateral brachial artery disease presenting with features of Raynaud's phenomenon which was successfully treated with angioplasty and stenting, together with a review of the relevant literature.
    Case: A 71-year-old female presented with a one-year history of intermittent pallor of both hands precipitated with cold objects. On examination, bilateral radial pulses were reduced. Prior photos showed pallor of the distal aspect of both palms. Angiogram showed high grade stenosis of the right brachial artery and focal occlusion with likely dissection of the left brachial artery. She underwent angioplasty and stenting for both lesions. She was asymptomatic without further episodes of Raynaud's phenomenon after five months on dual antiplatelet therapy. Upper-extremity vascular stenosis is uncommon. Structural changes in the vessel wall can cause vasospastic attacks, a mechanism described in secondary Raynaud's phenomenon. We hypothesize that these attacks may have been precipitated by the bilateral brachial artery disease. Furthermore, resolution of the symptoms after stent further supports our theory.
    Conclusion: Bilateral brachial artery disease is uncommon. Physicians should consider this in patients presenting with Raynaud's phenomenon. Brachial artery stenosis and occlusion is a treatable disease with good symptomatic outcomes after angioplasty and stenting.

    Abstract A 52-year-old man with a past medical history of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in remission developed progressive shortness of breath over a two-month period. He was initially treated with dasatinib for four years, until developing pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) with pleural effusions. His symptoms improved after stopping dasatinib. He was then switched to bosutinib for approximately one year, which was then stopped before admission due to worsening shortness of breath. His initial workup showed bilateral pleural effusions with severe PAH and cor pulmonale. He had symptomatic improvement with PAH-specific therapy following discontinuation of the bosutinib. The life expectancy of CML patients has increased in the era of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), and managing adverse events (AEs) of the TKIs and improving quality of life are becoming more important. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) and pleural effusions are rarely reported AEs of bosutinib. More reports with PH and pleural effusions arising after bosutinib use in patients previously treated with dasatinib is furthermore concerning. In this era with novel chemotherapeutic agents, physicians ought to be weary of the significant morbidity implicated by these agents in the lives of patients.
