AbstractHere we present a rare case of spontaneous pneumomediastinum complicated with pneumorrhachis (PR) in a young man who is a known case of carcinoma rectosigmoid region. Our young male was diagnosed with novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and remained asymptomatic for any respiratory complaints. Though an association of pneumomediastinum has been reported in COVID 19 patients, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of PR in a COVID-19 oncological case. The role of a radiologist is to identify this condition as cases reported earlier may have serious neurological consequences. Pursuing the cause can be a diagnostic challenge but it reaps the clinical benefit in the appropriate management.

We describe a rare case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst that posed a diagnostic challenge because of an unusual imaging manifestation (atelectasis) and unexpected bronchoscopic findings. Although the role of bronchoscopy in the management of pulmonary hydatid cyst is still controversial, 6 cases of complicated pulmonary hydatid cyst removed completely by suction through a fiberoptic bronchoscope have been reported so far. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first nonsurgically treated case of intact endobronchial hydatid cyst with an uneventful long-term follow-up.

Acute respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (Serious Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2) type that was first detected in Wuhan, Hubei Province of China, has turned into a pandemic. The disease commonly presents with fever, cough, and malaise, and typically bilateral peripheral ground-glass areas are seen in thorax computed tomography. While it may present as mild upper respiratory tract infection or pneumonia, patients may also develop pulmonary thromboembolism and pneumothorax. In our case, in a young male patient who was followed up for severe pneumonia due to COVİD-19 infection, pulmonary thromboembolism, parenchymal cysts, and pneumothorax were detected. Although pulmonary thromboembolism is a common complication, cyst formation and pneumothorax are rare. We aimed to present this case because of the coexistence of multiple pulmonary complications despite the young age of the patient.

Incidental intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is a rare neoplastic lesion in the explant liver specimens with an approximate incidence of 0.7%. The detection of iCCA is associated with poor prognosis in the posttransplant setting. The occurrence of a subcentimetric iCCA is very rare and poses a major diagnostic challenge to the pathologist.

It often presents as a case of muscle strain and you have to think out of the box to reach the diagnosis. We are presenting a case of isolated involvement of the brachialis muscle in a young male, who presented to us with complaints of pain of the lower arm. When patient could not get relief with conservative treatment a MRI of the arm was ordered which revealed the diagnosis of cysticercosis of brachialis muscle. In patients from endemic zone, who present with intractable muscular pain and not responding to conservative treatment, diagnosis of muscular cysticercosis should be kept in mind.

This booklet is a collection of the position statements accepted for the HRI’20 conference workshop “Social Cognition for HRI: Exploring the relationship between mindreading and social attunement in human-robot interaction” (Wykowska, Perez-Osorio & Kopp, 2020). Unfortunately, due to the rapid unfolding of the novel coronavirus at the beginning of the present year, the conference and consequently our workshop, were canceled. On the light of these events, we decided to put together the positions statements accepted for the workshop. The contributions collected in these pages highlight the role of attribution of mental states to artificial agents in human-robot interaction, and precisely the quality and presence of social attunement mechanisms that are known to make human interaction smooth, efficient, and robust. These papers also accentuate the importance of the multidisciplinary approach to advance the understanding of the factors and the consequences of social interactions with artificial agents.
