Diverticulitis complicated by pylephlebitis: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 5 - Trang 1-4 - 2011
Mahesh Gajendran, Thiruvengadam Muniraj, Mohamed Yassin
Pylephlebitis is defined as septic thrombophlebitis of the portal venous system, usually secondary to infection or inflammation in the abdomen. In the current report, we present a case of pylephlebitis that complicated the course of a very common pathology, diverticulitis. A 62-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of sigmoid diverticulitis presented to our facility with a three-week history of ...... hiện toàn bộ
The "incidental" episode of ventricular fibrillation: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - - 2007
Fahim H Jafary
Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation (VF) carry important prognostic implications, especially in the post myocardial infarction period. However, artifact on the electrocardiographic tracing can mimic VF particularly on routinely recorded rhythm strips in hospitals. Such misinterpretation can lead to expensive (and potentially risky) diagnostic and therapeutic steps. We ...... hiện toàn bộ
Double chambered right ventricle with severe calcification of the tricuspid valve in an elderly woman: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 5 - Trang 1-4 - 2011
Nozomu Tamai, Shigenori Ito, Kotaro Morimoto, Masahiko Inomata, Takayuki Yoshida, Shin Suzuki, Yoshimasa Murakami, Koichi Sato
Double chambered right ventricle is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which the right ventricle is divided into two chambers by an anomalous muscle bundle. The diagnosis of this disorder is difficult in adults. Calcification of the tricuspid valve is extremely rare, and very few cases have been reported. Most cases of tricuspid valve calcification had a congenital disorder with high pressure in...... hiện toàn bộ
Aberrant DNA methylation of cancer-related genes in giant breast fibroadenoma: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 5 - Trang 1-4 - 2011
Diego M Marzese, Francisco E Gago, Javier I Orozco, Olga M Tello, María Roqué, Laura M Vargas-Roig
Giant fibroadenoma is an uncommon variant of benign breast lesions. Aberrant methylation of CpG islands in promoter regions is known to be involved in the silencing of genes (for example, tumor-suppressor genes) and appears to be an early event in the etiology of breast carcinogenesis. Only hypermethylation of p16INK4a has been reported in non-giant breast fibroadenoma. In this particular case, th...... hiện toàn bộ
Paradoxical embolism following thromboaspiration of an arteriovenous fistula thrombosis: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 4 - Trang 1-5 - 2010
Bouteina Bentaarit, Anne Marie Duval, Anne Maraval, Djamal Dahmane, Karine Dahan, Brahim Amara, Philippe Lang, Djillali Sahali
Paradoxical embolism is an increasingly reported cause of arterial embolism. Several embolic sources have been described, but thrombosis of an arteriovenous fistula as a paradoxical emboligenic source has not, to the best of our knowledge, been reported. A 50-year-old Caucasian woman received a renal graft for primary hyperoxaluria. After transplantation, she was maintained on daily hemodialysis. ...... hiện toàn bộ
Bartter syndrome-like phenotype in a patient with diabetes: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 12 - Trang 1-4 - 2018
Chamara Dalugama, Manoji Pathirage, S. A. M. Kularatne
Bartter’s syndrome is a rare genetic tubulopathy affecting the loop of Henle leading to salt wasting. It is commonly seen in utero or in early neonatal period. Rare cases of acquired Bartter’s syndrome are reported in association with infections like tuberculosis, granulomatous conditions like sarcoidosis, autoimmune diseases, and drugs. The mainstay of management includes potassium, calcium, and ...... hiện toàn bộ
Chromosomal 16p microdeletion in Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome detected by oligonucleotide-based array comparative genomic hybridization: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 6 - Trang 1-7 - 2012
Md A Mohd Fadley, Azli Ismail, Thong Meow Keong, Narazah Mohd Yusoff, Zubaidah Zakaria
Chromosomal aberrations of chromosome 16 are uncommon and submicroscopic deletions have rarely been reported. At present, a cytogenetic or molecular abnormality can only be detected in 55% of Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome patients, leaving the diagnosis in 45% of patients to rest on clinical features only. Interestingly, this microdeletion of 16 p13.3 was found in a young child with an unexplained syn...... hiện toàn bộ
Parainfectious encephalomyeloradiculitis associated with bacterial meningitis: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 9 - Trang 1-3 - 2015
Yuji Kato, Takeshi Hayashi, Akira Uchino, Ichiro Deguchi, Norio Tanahashi
Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis in adulthood occurs in most cases after a viral infection. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis associated with bacterial meningitis, however, is quite rare. An 82-year-old Japanese woman presented with a fever and somnolence. Increased neutrophil count and protein content, and decreased glucose levels in her cerebrospinal fluid initially suggested bacterial me...... hiện toàn bộ
Personalized medicine: paradigm shift in ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - Tập 17 Số 1
João Vasco Barreira, José Leão Mendes, Anuraj Parmanande
Abstract Background Since the identification of multiple therapeutic targets, as is the case of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) translocation, the paradigm of treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has improved. In order to guarantee the possibility of longer survival outcomes wi...... hiện toàn bộ
Computed tomography angiography of liver alveococcosis: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports - - 2024
Saodatkhon Magzumova, Umidjon Isroilov, Nigora Djuraeva, Zarina Khaybullina, Aybek Amirkhamzaev, Nargiza Vakhidova, Khanum Abdukhalimova, Alisher Sultanov, Bekhzod Abdullaev
Alveococcosis, helminthiasis caused by the larvae of Alveococcus multilocularis, is characterized by the formation of parasitic nodes in the liver. This clinical case is a rare occurrence of liver alveococcosis in Uzbekistan. We present a case of a 33-year-old Asian woman from Uzbekistan who complained of discomfort in the epigastric region and right hypochondrium, along with general weakness. She...... hiện toàn bộ
