Case ReportBurkitt's Lymphoma Presenting as Endobronchial LesionFatih Uzer, Levent Dertsiz and Aykut CilliAbstractPrimary endobronchial tumor is seen rarely in young adults. Benign neoplasms such as hamartoma, hemangioma, papilloma, leiomyoma are seen more often whereas maling conditions are infrequent. Lymphoma is quite rare in children. |
Case ReportSevere ANCA Associated Vasculitis in the Setting of Cocaine Abuse: A Case ReportAna Ramirez Berlioz, Orlando Garner, Eliana Wiesner, Alfredo Iardino Scarano and Kalpana BhairavarasuAbstractA 41-year-old Hispanic female with known medical history significant for bronchial asthma presents to the Emergency Department (ED) in February 2010, complaining of a 3-week long history of an erythematous tender rash with irregular margins on the tip of her nose, upper and lower extremities (Figure 1) accompanied by bilateral elbow, knee and ankle pain. |
Review ArticleEvaluation of the Functional and Clinical Outcome of Intramedullary Osteosynthesis with Gamma Nail in Treatment of Unstable Peritrochanteric FracturesHatim Mohammed A ALShareef, Hossam Mohammed Aref, Ahmed H AlHasan, Amer Mohammed A ALShreef and Mohammed Abdul Wahab Al Juhani1AbstractPeritrochanteric fractures of the femur rank among the most severe fractures in elderly people. The Gamma Nail is one of the latest advance in the treatment of trochanteric fractures based on intramedullary nailing principles during closed procedures. |
Case ReportThe Biliary Sinus: A Rare Late-Stage Complication of CholecystectomyIhsan Yildiz, Yavuz Savas Koca and Ibrahim BarutAbstractA 53-year-old female patient who had undergone open cholecystectomy due to cholelithiasis 6 years earlier was admitted to hepatobiliary surgery unit with a painful mass in the right upper quadrant and fever. Ultrasonography showed that a 3-cm fluid-filled mass in the right upper quadrant subcutaneously, in computed tomography a fluid-filled tubular lesion extending from the right lobe of liver to right upper quadrant, and percutaneous cholangiography showed that a radio-opaque density communicating with the liver. The biliary sinus tract was totally excised. The patient was uneventfully discharged on day 6 after the surgery. Histopathological examination of the lesion was reported as a bile sinus. |
Case ReportLeft Atrial Appendage Occluder with Recurrent Thrombus Formation Visualized by Three-Dimensional Transesophageal EchocardiographySebastian Greiner and Hugo A KatusAbstractA 78-year-old Caucasian female with newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation was put on anticoagulation with phenprocoumon. Two months later she developed an intracranial hemorrhage localized in the brainstem. Neurological findings were paresis and paraesthesia of the left body side. The treatment was conservative and symptoms resolved within three months. |
Case ReportChemotherapeutic Agents for Brain Metastases in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Case Report with Eribulin Mesylate and Review of the LiteratureAlejandra C Fuentes, Reordan O De Jesus and David N ReismanAbstractLung cancer accounts for the majority of cases of brain metastases, resulting in higher morbidity and mortality. Surgery and radiation are the current standard of care for the treatment of brain metastases. However, when brain metastases recur despite these treatments, the management options are limited, especially when recurrent metastatic events occur. The role of systemic chemotherapy for brain metastases remains undefined, with advances in drug delivery and ongoing studies using targeted agents showing promising results. |
Case ReportThe Use of the Gallbladder Wall for Reconstruction of the Extrahepatic Bile Ducts in a Case of Agenesis of the Common Bile Duct: A Case ReportMaher N GhabrielAbstractUnexpected anomalies of the extrahepatic biliary ducts were found intraoperatively during open cholecystectomy in a 49-year-old male, with calcular obstructive jaundice. The patient had congenital absence of the common bile duct that appears to have been replaced by the cystic duct, which opened directly into the duodenum. The right and left hepatic ducts drained into the posterior wall of the gallbladder by a short common hepatic duct. Intraoperatively the gallbladder wall (with uncompromised nerve and blood supply) was used as a vital flap to reconstruct a tubular bridge across the defect in the biliary ducts, while retaining a functional sphincter of Oddi at the end of the original cystic duct. |
Review ArticleThe Spread of Melanoma to the Adrenal Glands: Historical CasesWilson I B OnuigboAbstractPersonal interest in cancer metastasis to the adrenal glands began in 1957 and matured in a Doctorate Thesis in 1961. Part of its eminence lay in cases in which it was the only soil selected for attack. What of the melanoma? The available historical account did not contain this answer. Therefore, this paper aims to determine the situation in the classical Transactions of the Pathological Society of London, which began to publish during the 1846 - 1848 period. |
Case ReportNeurobiology of KB220Z-Glutaminergic-Dopaminergic Optimization Complex [GDOC] as a Liquid Nano: Clinical Activation of Brain in a Highly Functional Clinician Improving Focus, Motivation and Overall Sensory Input Following Chronic IntakeLucien L Duquette, Frank Mattiace, Kenneth Blum, Roger L Waite, Teresa Boland,Thomas McLaughlin1, Kristina Dushaj, Marcelo Febo and Rajendra D BadgaiyanAbstractWith neurogenetic and epigenetic tools utilized in research and neuroimaging, we are unraveling the mysteries of brain function, especially as it relates to Reward Deficiency Syndrome (RDS). We encourage the development of pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals that promote a reduction in dopamine resistance and balance brain neurochemistry, leading to dopamine homeostasis. We disclose self-assessment of a highly functional professional under work-related stress following KB220Z use, a liquid (aqua) nano glutaminergic-dopaminergic optimization complex (GDOC). |
