“…In one case of childhood pleural mesothelioma prenatal exposure to isoniazid has occurred. 57 Pulmonary involvement by malignant histiocytosis was reported in four children. 58 There is a tendency for the infiltrates to occur along bronchovascular rays, in interlobular septa, and within the pleura.…”

Primary pulmonary tumors are infrequent in childhood, therefore an accurate diagnosis and treatment is often delayed. We review the English language literature and report the clinical and pathological features of eight tumors arising in the lungs of pre-adolescent children, accessioned between 1960 and 1991 in the pathology department of a children's hospital in South Africa. The ratio of pulmonary primary tumors to secondary neoplasms and to non-neoplastic lesions of the lung examined during this period was 1:5:60. Over the last 31 years we received three plasma cell granulomas, two pleuro-pulmonary blastomas, a mucoepidermoid carcinoma, an endobronchial fibrosarcoma, and a hemangioma. All patients presented with cough unresponsive to medical treatment. The incidence and spread of primary lung tumors in children was similar to that reported from other centers. Plasma cell granuloma is the most common primary tumor in the lungs of children. Aggressive behavior is most frequently encountered with pleuro-pulmonary blastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma, and because of their association with cystic lesions careful examination of lungs is required in such cases. Most other malignant neoplasms, such as muco-epidermoid carcinoma and primary fibrosarcoma, are usually of a low grade of malignancy. A decreasing incidence of bronchogenic carcinoma seems to be reported during the first two decades of life.

“…It appears to be more frequent in males and, unlike in adults, there is no clear relationship with asbestos or radiation exposure 3–4. A pediatric case of MPM after in utero isoniazid exposure has been reported 7. None of these factors were present in our patient.…”

Successful use of the five‐in‐six system with IVUS guided transradial renal artery stenting

In transradial renal intervention, the long distance between the vascular access and the target lesion represents a major issue. The 100 cm guiding catheter (GC) may be too short to engage the renal artery particularly in tall patients or with excessive aortic turtousity. On the other hand, with the use of 125 cm long GC, only few premounted dedicated renal stents can be used. The shaft of the stent delivery system must be 140 cm or more to be compatible with the 125 GC. However, in many renal interventions, only few more centimeters are required to give the GC the sufficient working length needed for proper engagement and back up support. For this purpose, we used the Terumo "five-in-six" system to provide the necessary extra length through the protruding part of the 5 Fr GC out of the tip of the 6 Fr GC. With the super soft distal segment of the 5 FR GC deeply intubated into the right renal artery, we had the sufficient backup support to do renal stenting with IVUS guidance. This case illustrates that the "five-in-six" system can be an alternative strategy whenever extra length or strong backup support is needed during transradial renal artery intervention.
