Lymphomatoid granulomatosis, a tumor-like process of unknown etiology, produced progressively destructive disease of the larynx, trachea and bronchi in an eight-year-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia of five years duration. The leukemia had been in remission for 4½ years at the clinical onset of the lymphomatoid granulomatosis. Whether this occurrence suggests that lymphomatoid granulomatosis is a type of neoplasm, or is associated with immunologic depression, cannot be stated. Fortunately rare, and of poor prognosis, the disorder may become more frequent with improved survival rate of patients with leukemia and other neoplasms.

Abstract The objective of this study is to develop a finite element model of the human thorax with a protective body armor system so that the model can adequately determine the thorax’s biodynamical response from a projectile impact. The finite element model of the human thorax consists of the thoracic skeleton, heart, lungs, major arteries, major veins, trachea, and bronchi. The finite element model of the human thorax is validated by comparing the model’s results to experimental data obtained from cadavers wearing a protective body armor system undergoing a projectile impact.

Carcinoid tumors are rare malignant neoplasms of the respiratory system. They belong to neuroendocrine tumors with a low degree of (G1, G2) malignancy. Even less common is the primary multiplicity of these tumors in the trachea and bronchi, which can complicate the only radical, surgical treatment. We present an observation of a 75-year-old patient who was able to diagnose a carcinoid of the cervical trachea and left main bronchus in a timely manner, determine the exact localization and prevalence of the tumor, and successfully conduct surgical treatment in 2 stages.
