  • Isolated IgG4-related mediastinal disease: A case report

    IgG4-related disease is an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease with fibrosis, which can affect almost all organs in the body. In a few cases, only a single organ is affected. The incidence of isolated IgG4-related mediastinal disease is even rarer. This article reports a rare case of isolated IgG4-related middle mediastinal disease and provides a detailed description of its diagnosis and surgical treatment. The patient had a good prognosis and did not receive any medication such as corticosteroids after surgery. Follow-up after 6 months showed no recurrence.

  • Risk factors and the predictive model for occult lymph node metastasis in cT1N0M0 stage squamous cell lung cancer

    Objective To investigate the risk factors for lymph node metastasis in cT1N0M0 stage squamous cell lung cancer and develop a logistic regression model to predict lymph node metastasis. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients with cT1N0M0 stage lung squamous cell carcinoma in our department from August 2017 to October 2022. The correlation between basic clinical data, imaging data, and pathological data and lymph node metastasis was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed for risk factor analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curves and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test were utilized to evaluate the model’s discrimination and calibration. The Bootstrap method with 1 000 resamples was employed for internal validation of the model. Results Tumor location of central-type, tumor differentiation, cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1) levels, and tumor size were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis in cT1N0M0 stage squamous cell lung cancer. The optimal cutoff values for tumor size and CYFRA21-1 levels were determined to be 2.05 cm and 4.20 ng/mL, respectively. The combination of tumor location, CYFRA21-1 levels, and tumor size demonstrates superior predictive capability compared to any individual factor. Conclusion Tumor location of central-type, poorly differentiated tumors, CYFRA21-1 levels, and tumor size are risk factors for lymph node metastasis in cT1N0M0 stage lung squamous cell carcinoma. The combined predictive model has certain guiding significance for intraoperative lymph node resection strategies in cT1N0M0 stage lung squamous cell carcinoma.
