In such cases, systemic vascular channels called Major Aortopulmonary Collat eral Arteries (MAPCA’s) develop from aorta and its major branch es to supply and maintain the pulmonary circulation. Such patients commonly undergo a Cardiac CT as an imperative pre-operative investigation for detailed information of these collaterals which helps plan further management.

A metastatic melanoma patient with spontaneous melano-ma-associated vitiligo survived for up to 7 years and 5 months: a case report
1.1. Background: Malignant melanoma is a highly malignant tu mor caused by abnormal proliferation of melanoma cells in the skin and mucous membranes, with a poor prognosis after metasta sis. Skin melanocytes are gradually destroyed in vitiligo patients. There is a certain correlation between these two diseases: In these two conditions, cytotoxic T lymphocytes that target autoantigens shared by normal melanocytes and melanoma cells have been found. Spontaneous melanoma-associated vitiligo was relatively rare before melanoma was diagnosed, and its pathogenesis and prognosis were rarely studied.
Ulcerative colitis with aseptic abscesses controlled by Vedolizumab: A case report
