Objective: To test the performance of an artificial intelligence-based computer-aided diagnosis (AI-CAD) designed for fullfield digital mammography (FFDM) when applied to synthetic mammography (SM). Materials and Methods: We analyzed 501 women (mean age, 57 ± 11 years) who underwent preoperative mammography and breast cancer surgery. This cohort consisted of 1002 breasts, comprising 517 with cancer and 485 without. All patients underwent digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and FFDM during the preoperative workup. The SM is routinely reconstructed using DBT. Commercial AI-CAD (Lunit Insight MMG, version 1.1.7.2) was retrospectively applied to SM and FFDM to calculate the abnormality scores for each breast. The median abnormality scores were compared for the 517 breasts with cancer using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Calibration curves of abnormality scores were evaluated. The discrimination performance was analyzed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity using a 10% preset threshold. Sensitivity and specificity were further analyzed according to the mammographic and pathological characteristics.The results of SM and FFDM were compared. Results: AI-CAD demonstrated a significantly lower median abnormality score (71% vs. 96%, P < 0.001) and poorer calibration performance for SM than for FFDM. SM exhibited lower sensitivity (76.2% vs. 82.8%, P < 0.001), higher specificity (95.5% vs.91.8%, P < 0.001), and comparable AUC (0.86 vs. 0.87, P = 0.127) than FFDM. SM showed lower sensitivity than FFDM in asymptomatic breasts, dense breasts, ductal carcinoma in situ, T1, N0, and hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative cancers but showed higher specificity in non-cancerous dense breasts. Conclusion AI-CAD showed lower abnormality scores and reduced calibration performance for SM than for FFDM.Furthermore, the 10% preset threshold resulted in different discrimination performances for the SM. Given these limitations, off-label application of the current AI-CAD to SM should be avoided.

Background and Objectives: Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a life-threatening inherited arrhythmogenic disorder. Recently, RYR2, the major CPVTcausative gene, was associated with neuropsychiatric manifestations. We aimed to analyze the clinical presentations, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and treatment outcomes of children with CPVT. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 23 patients diagnosed with CPVT before 19 years of age. Genetic analysis, history of neuropsychiatric manifestations, changes in ventricular arrhythmia burden before and after treatment, occurrence of cardiac events, and overall survival (OS) were investigated. Results: RYR2 variants were identified in 17 patients, and 14 were classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic. Neuropsychiatric manifestations, including intellectual disability and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, were identified in 10 patients (43.5%). The 5-year cardiac event-free survival rate was 31.2%, and the 10-year OS rate was 73.1%. Patients diagnosed since 2009 had a higher cardiac event-free survival rate than those diagnosed before 2009 (p=0.0028).Combined beta-blocker and flecainide therapy demonstrated a lower risk of cardiac events than beta-blocker monotherapy (hazard ratio [HR], 0.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02–0.38;p=0.002). Left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) reduced the ventricular arrhythmia burden in Holter monitoring. Occurrence of near-fatal cardiac events after diagnosis was an independent predictor of death (HR, 33.40; 95% CI, 6.23–179.95; p<0.001). Conclusions Neuropsychiatric manifestations are common in children with CPVT. Flecainide and/or LCSD, when added to beta-blocker therapy, reduce the ventricular arrhythmia burden and cardiac events, thereby improving treatment outcomes in recent years.

Phyllodes tumors of the breast are rare biphasic fibroepithelial neoplasms that may coexist with breast carcinomas. Herein, we report a case of invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) within a borderline phyllodes tumor accompanied by extensive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in the same breast. A 72-year-old woman presented with a palpable lump in the right breast.Mammography showed an oval mass associated with segmental microcalcifications, and breast ultrasound (US) revealed a 2.3 cm oval mass and an associated non-mass lesion. Based on US-guided core needle biopsy, the initial biopsy result of the non-mass lesion suggested DCIS; however, the mass was diagnosed as a fibroepithelial lesion. Preoperative dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging showed a rim-enhancing oval mass with areas of T2 hyperintensity, accompanied by segmental non-mass enhancement. The mass was highly suspicious for malignancy and was considered imaging-pathology discordant.Subsequently, the patient underwent mastectomy. Histopathological examination of the surgical specimens confirmed a borderline phyllodes tumor with an IDC within the tumor and an extensive intraductal component. The invasive carcinoma component was triplenegative breast cancer. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of identifying coexisting carcinomas within phyllodes tumors and emphasizes the necessity for increased awareness among radiologists regarding this possibility.
