Read MoreConditional survival patterns and individualized prognostic prediction in malignant peritoneal mesothelioma
Scientific Reports 2026 June 1 [Link] Xiaofeng Liao, Chen Li, Ming Huang, Zheng Yao, Shikun Luo, Xiaoyu Lei Abstract Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare, aggressive cancer with limited treatment options and extremely poor survival outcomes. Due to the disease’s low incidence, large-scale cohort studies to clarify survival outcomes and the impact of treatments…
Read MoreLocalised malignant mesothelioma presenting as an esophageal mass: An unusual manifestation
Radiology Case Reports 2026 May 19 [Link] Kaspar L Yaxley, Tristan Rutland, Thisuri Jayawardena, David Law, Yuranga Weerakkody Abstract Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive neoplasm arising from mesothelial cells, typically presenting with pleural thickening, pleural effusions, or respiratory symptoms. Dysphagia as a presenting symptom is extremely uncommon, and esophageal involvement is rare. We report a…
