THE ROLE OF SPIRAL MDCT IN THE STUDY OF WILLIAMS CAMPBELL DISEASE.
No full textWilliams-Campbell syndrome is a cystic bronchiectatic disease secondary to deficiency or defect of cartilaginous plates in the wall of the airways. In the literature, two main forms are suggested: congenital and acquired (post-infectious). The most frequent symptoms are represented by recurrent pulmonary infections from childhood. Multislice spiral dynamic CT has a major role in the study of cystic pulmonary disease and in differentiating Williams-Campbell syndrome from the other causes of cystic bronchiectasis, in which even lung function tests can give deceptive results

Successful selective arterial embolizations for bone metastases in renal cell carcinoma integrated with systemic therapies: A case report
Full text linkthe initial cytoreductive nephrectomy to 3 successive lines of medical treatment (sunitinib, everolimus, and sorafenib) and multiple locoregional treatments (spinal surgery, radiation therapy, and selective arterial embolization), resulting in a surprisingly long survival of over 75 months. In the era of target therapy, integration strategies, including additional locoregional treatment to medical therapy, are essential to optimize the clinical benefit, to maximize treatment duration overcoming focal progressive disease, and to improve the quality of life. In this context, we would highlight that selective transcatheter embolization of bone metastases from renal cell carcinoma should be considered as an effective and safe option in the palliative setting for patients with bone metastasis, especially for pain relief
