An 11-month-old cyanotic infant presented to pediatric cardiology outpatient clinic with respiratory distress and oxygen saturation of 70 % on room air. Chest radiograph revealed dextrocardia and with a tortuous tubular opacity (Fig. 1A) seen in left lower lung field. Subsequently transthoracic echocardiography was performed which revealed dextrocardia with complete atrioventricular septal defect and total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC).

The value of a multimodal ultrasound radiomics-based nomogram in predicting central lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
Thyroid cancer has become one of the most common malignant tumors of the endocrine system worldwide [1]. Among its subtypes, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) accounts for approximately 80% of all cases [2]. According to the World Health Organization classification, PTC with a maximum diameter ≤10 mm is defined as papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), which exhibits distinct clinical and biological characteristics [3]. Although most PTMCs progress slowly with a 5-year disease-specific surviva…
