This case-control study found computed tomography does not accurately identify pleuropulmonary blastoma in children; operative management is therefore recommended to confirm pathologic diagnosis in postnatally detected cystic lesions. https://t.co/vJ7jtpTOzr

Thoracic and lung involvement of IgG4-RD are heterogeneous and underevaluated. Peribronchovascular involvement and lymph node enlargement are most frequent patterns. Interstitial disease pattern seems to be associated with lower rate of treatment response. https://t.co/AMuLjPByut pic.twitter.com/ZmDrz6nK6g
