Abstract
SUMMARY Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumours (IMTs) are rare and clinically benign in childhood, and malignant in adults. The aetiology of IMTs is not clear, and recent studies report it as true neoplasm rather than a reactive or inflammatory lesion. IMTs can involve any part of the body, but are usually common in lungs. These are rarely seen in adults and tracheal involvement is also rare in both adults and children. We describe an 18-year-old woman who presented with respiratory difficulty to the emergency department. On clinical examination, the patient had complete absence of breath sounds on the right side of the chest. CT of the chest and virtual bronchoscopy revealed a polypoidal soft tissue mass lesion involving the carina with occlusion of right main bronchus. Endoscopic-assisted resection was performed under general anaesthesia and the final pathological diagnosis was tracheal IMT.

Abstract
SETTING In South Africa, KwaZulu-Natal is the epicentre of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic, where approximately 70% of people with tuberculosis (TB) are co-infected with HIV. Undiagnosed TB contributes to high mortality in HIV-infected patients. Delays in diagnosing TB and treatment initiation result in prolonged transmission and increased infectiousness. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the LoopampTM MTBC Detection kit (TB-LAMP; based on the loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay), smear microscopy and Xpert test with the gold standard of mycobacterial culture. METHODS Sputum samples were collected from 705 patients with symptoms of pulmonary TB attending a primary health care clinic. RESULTS The TB-LAMP assay had significantly higher sensitivity than smear microscopy (72.6% vs. 45.4%, P < 0.001), whereas specificity was slightly lower (99% vs. 96.8%, P = 0.05), but significantly higher than Xpert (92.9%, P = 0.004). There was no significant difference in sensitivity of smear-positive, culture-positive and smear-negative, culture-positive sputum samples using TB-LAMP vs. Xpert (respectively 95.9%/55.9% vs. 97.6%/66.1%; P =0.65, P = 0.27). The positive predictive value of TB-LAMP was significantly higher than that of Xpert (87.5% vs. 77.0%; P = 0.02), but similar to that of smear microscopy (94.2%; P = 0.18). The negative predictive value was respectively 91.9%, 92.5% (P = 0.73) and 83.1% (P = 0.0001). CONCLUSION Given its ease of operability, the TB-LAMP assay could be implemented as a point-of-care test in primary health care settings, and contribute to reducing treatment waiting times and TB prevalence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In heart transplantation, there is a critical need for development of biomarkers to noninvasively monitor cardiac allografts for immunologic rejection or injury. Exosomes are tissue-specific nanovesicles released into circulation by many cell types. Their profiles are dynamic, reflecting conditional changes imposed on their tissue counterparts. We proposed that a transplanted heart releases donor-specific exosomes into the recipient's circulation that are conditionally altered during immunologic rejection. We investigated this novel concept in a rodent heterotopic heart transplantation model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Full major histocompatibility mismatch (BALB/c [H2-Kd] into C57BL/6 [H2-Kb]) heterotopic heart transplantation was performed in 2 study arms: Rejection (n = 64) and Maintenance (n = 28). In the Rejection arm, immunocompetent recipients fully rejected the donor heart, whereas in the Maintenance arm, immunodeficient recipients (C57BL/6 PrkdcSCID) accepted the allograft. Recipient plasma exosomes were isolated and a donor heart-specific exosome signal was characterized on the nanoparticle detector for time-specific profile changes using anti-H2-Kd antibody quantum dot. RESULTS In the Maintenance arm, allografts were viable throughout follow-up of 30 days, with histology confirming absence of rejection or injury. Time course analysis (days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 15, and 30) showed that total plasma exosome concentration (P = .157) and donor heart exosome signal (P = .538) was similar between time points. In the Rejection arm, allografts were universally rejected (median, day 11). Total plasma exosome quantity and size distribution were similar between follow-up time points (P = .278). Donor heart exosome signals peaked on day 1, but significantly decreased by day 2 (P = 2 × 10-4) and day 3 (P = 3.3 × 10-6), when histology showed grade 0R rejection. The receiver operating characteristic curve for a binary separation of the 2 study arms (Maintenance vs Rejection) demonstrated that a donor heart exosome signal threshold < 0.3146 was 91.4% sensitive and 95.8% specific for diagnosis of early acute rejection. CONCLUSIONS Transplant heart exosome profiling enables noninvasive monitoring of early acute rejection with high accuracy. Translation of this concept to clinical settings might enable development of a novel biomarker platform for allograft monitoring in transplantation diagnostics.

Abstract
SummaryTo determine whether the factor V Leiden mutation is associated with decreased bleeding in individuals with severe hemophilia A, factor concentrate utilization, maximum annual number of bleeding episodes, and the prevalence of hemophilic arthropathy between carriers and non-carriers of the factor V Leiden mutation were compared. Heterozygosity for the factor V Leiden mutation was found in 6 of 137 subjects (4.4%). Carriers of the factor V Leiden mutation utilized less factor concentrate (geometric mean: 310 vs. 1185 units/kg/year) and had fewer bleeding episodes than non-carriers (proportion with 10 or fewer bleeding episodes in their worst year: 50 vs. 11%). However, the factor V Leiden mutation was not associated with the absence of arthropathy. The intron 22 inversion mutation of the factor VIII gene was tested for in a subgroup of 80 subjects, but it was not found to be a significant variable for any of the bleeding endpoints. The results of this small study are consistent with the hypothesis that the factor V Leiden mutation imparts a protective effect; however, a larger confirmatory study in which the factor VIII molecular defects can be controlled for is needed. Furthermore, most severe hemophiliacs who used fewer than 200 units/kg/year of factor concentrate or who had experienced 10 or fewer bleeding episodes per year did not carry the factor V Leiden mutation, suggesting that the proportion of severe hemophiliacs whose mild clinical course can be attributed to the factor V Leiden mutation is small.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this review is to bring pancreatic transplantation out of the specialist realm, informing practitioners about this important procedure, so that they feel better equipped to refer suitable patients for transplantation and manage, counsel and support when encountering them within their own speciality. SOURCES OF DATA Narrative review conducted in May 2017. OVID interface searching EMBASE and MEDLINE databases, using Timeframe: Inception to June 1, 2017. Articles were assessed for clinical relevance and most up to date content with articles written in english as the only inclusion criteria. Other sources, used included conference proceedings/presentations, unpublished data from our institution (Oxford Transplant Centre). AREAS OF AGREEMENT Pancreas transplantation has evolved from an experimental procedure to the gold standard of care for patients with type 1 diabetes and uraemia. Currently, it remains the most effective method of establishing and maintaining euglycemia over the longer term, halting and potentially reversing many of the secondary complications associated with diabetes. Significant improvements to quality of life and better life expectancy make it in the longer term, a lifesaving procedure compared to waiting candidates. AREAS OF CONTROVERSY The future of solid organ pancreas transplantation remains uncertain, with extensive comorbidity and advances in alternative therapies makes the long-term growth of the procedure questionable. GROWING POINTS AND AREAS TIMELY FOR DEVELOPING RESEARCH Therapies to alleviate problems associated with ischaemia reperfusion injury, graft pancreatitis and more effective monitoring methods for detecting and treating organ rejection are the key areas of growth.

Abstract
Delayed gastrointestinal bleeding in the context of a gastric fistula is a very rare complication of longitudinal sleeve gastrectomy. We report the case of a patient who presented with massive gastrointestinal bleeding from a pseudoaneurysm arising from the splenic artery following complications after a longitudinal sleeve gastrectomy several months previously. The case was successfully managed with angiographic embolisation and we present our experience with recommendations for managing this rare but life-threatening complication.

Abstract
In transplantation, there is a critical need for noninvasive biomarker platforms for monitoring immunologic rejection. We hypothesized that transplanted tissues release donor-specific exosomes into recipient circulation and that the quantitation and profiling of donor intra-exosomal cargoes may constitute a biomarker platform for monitoring rejection. Here, we have tested this hypothesis in a human-into-mouse xenogeneic islet transplant model and validated the concept in clinical settings of islet and renal transplantation. In the xenogeneic model, we quantified islet transplant exosomes in recipient blood over long-term follow-up using anti-HLA antibody, which was detectable only in xenoislet recipients of human islets. Transplant islet exosomes were purified using anti-HLA antibody-conjugated beads, and their cargoes contained the islet endocrine hormone markers insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin. Rejection led to a marked decrease in transplant islet exosome signal along with distinct changes in exosomal microRNA and proteomic profiles prior to appearance of hyperglycemia. In the clinical settings of islet and renal transplantation, donor exosomes with respective tissue specificity for islet β cells and renal epithelial cells were reliably characterized in recipient plasma over follow-up periods of up to 5 years. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the biomarker potential of transplant exosome characterization for providing a noninvasive window into the conditional state of transplant tissue.

Abstract
Abstract
Goal: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare, aggressive form of breast cancer that is characterized by a highly metastatic phenotype. Numerous previous attempts failed to identify, recurrent, IBC-specific gene expression or DNA copy number alterations. We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) of IBC biopsies obtained before any therapy to define a comprehensive genomic landscape of this disease.
Methods: Illumina paired-end whole genome sequencing (WGS) of 20 IBC (n=9 ER+, n=11 ER-) and matched normal samples were performed with median coverage of 60X and 40X for cancer and normal, the percentages of mapped reads were 99.3% and 99.2%, respectively. We identified germ-line and somatic variants, indels as well as large scale structural variants, using GATK Haplotype Caller, MuTect and CREST, respectively. We performed the same analysis on WGS data from 23, age, race and ER and HER2 matched, non-IBC (n=12 ER+, n=11 ER-) from the TCGA for comparison. Variants in both coding and noncoding sequences were categorized by FunSeq to identify potential drivers. Mutation clustering in each gene, as well as significantly mutated non-coding regulatory modules, were identified using LARVA. DeconstructSigs were used to decompose the mutational spectrum of each cancer into 30 validated, mutational signatures provided by COSMIC. Contributions of each validated signature to mutations in IBC vs. non-IBC were compared using Welch's t-test.
Results: We identified 118,818 somatic variants in the IBC samples (median: 3,856; minimum: 1,109; maximum: 24,815) including 1,060 variants (~0.9%) in coding regions. 5,287 somatic indels and 5,959 large scale structural variants were detected including 1,028 insertions and 1,857 deletions. Recurrent, non-synonymous mutations were detected in the coding region of GRIN2A gene in 3/20 IBC samples (15%), (previously reported as a potential driver mutation in 1.7% of breast cancers). Other significant mutations in coding regions included GRHL1, PIK3R2, ESR1, FLG2 and etc. Three DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs) in non-coding regions were altered in 20% (4/20) IBC samples vs. fewer than 8.7% (2/23) in non-IBC. Mutational frequency of GATA3 is 80.0% vs. 47.8% (p=0.03), and PTEN is 45.0% vs. 73.9% (p=0.05), in IBC vs. non-IBC samples when including both coding and non-coding variants. Contributions of mutational signature 9, that is associated with polymerase η , were significantly higher in IBC cohort than non-IBC cohort (p-value=0.056).
Conclusion: This is the first whole genome sequencing analysis of IBC and comparison with the results from non-IBC. We identified promising candidate drivers in the coding sequence and in non-coding regulatory modules of expressed genes. We also identified mutational signature 9, and mutations in several DHS as significantly more frequent alterations in IBC compared to non-IBC.
