Surgical Management of an Intrathoracic Desmoid Tumor: A Rare Presentation

Santivañez JJ, Diaz A, Jiménez A and García Herreros LG

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 09, 2020

Desmoid tumor is a rare connective tissue tumor, accounting for approximately 3.5% of connective tissue tumors and 0.3% of all solid tumors. It can originate in any part of the body; however, we find them more frequently in extremities, thorax and abdomen. True intrathoracic desmoid tumors however (arise within the thoracic cavity) are remarkably rare. The main problem is the ability to continue growing more than in other locations, and the high relapse rates of this tumor. Adequate surg...

Anti-PL-12 Associated Antisynthetase Syndrome-A Less Recognized Clinical Entity

Melcy Cleetus, Dantis Emmanuel, Rajesh Venkitakrishnan, Jolsana Augustine and Divya Ramachandran

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: November 06, 2020

Interstitial lung diseases, (ILD) or diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLD) are umbrella terms used collectively to denote aetiologically heterogeneous group of disorders sharing clinical, radiographic and physiologic similarities. The treatment choices and prognosis vary substantially among the different causes of ILD and hence determining the correct etiology is of paramount importance. Connective tissue diseases are important causes of DPLDs and ILD is an important cause of morbidity and mo...

Novel Technique of Wire-Guided Retrograde Esophageal Dilatation in Infants Using Feeding Tubes: The “DRIFT” Technique

Ravi Patcharu, MS, MCh, Karunesh Chand, MS, MCh and Badal Parikh, MD

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: November 05, 2020

Esophageal dilatation is the modality of choice for managing anastomotic stricture after primary repair of esophageal atresia (EA). Balloon dilatation over guide wire is the preferred technique with minimal chances of mucosal erosion. In some cases of tight strictures, safe antegrade dilatation becomes impossible if the guidewire cannot be negotiated across the stricture. In such situations, retrograde dilatation is a safer alternative to avoid another thoracotomy for stricture resection and ana...

Footwear for Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis: A Systematic Review

Hunter Loewen, BSc, Madeline S. Wilton-Clark, BSc, Shea Quilichini, BSc, Lauren C. Capozzi, MD, PhD and Ryan T. Lewinson, MD, PhD

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: October 31, 2020

Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) can affect the skin and musculoskeletal structures of the feet, raising the consideration of whether footwear has a role in clinical management. We summarized available evidence on how footwear (shoes, orthotics, insoles, and socks) can be utilized to supplement control of clinical symptoms in patients with psoriasis and PsA. Four electronic databases were searched for articles reporting on patients with psoriasis or PsA and outcomes pertaining to the impa...

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: October 28, 2020

Men who have sex with men (MSM) are known to have a higher risk of being infected by HIV. Clinical and public health programs need to incorporate strategies to increase regular HIV testing among MSM in order to control and prevent new infections. A cross-sectional bio-behavioral survey among MSM in Bamako, Mali, was conducted using respondent- driven sampling to study factors associated with not being HIV tested in this vulnerable population. The study participants were ≥ 18-years-old and had ...

Gait Disorders in Older Adults - A Structured Review and Approach to Clinical Assessment

Joseph O Nnodim, MD, PhD, FACP, AGSF, Chinomso V Nwagwu, MD and Ijeoma Nnodim Opara, MD, FAAP

Article Type: Structured Review | First Published: October 23, 2020

Human beings propel themselves through their environment primarily by walking. This activity is a sensitive indicator of overall health and self-efficacy. Impairments in gait lead to loss of functional independence and are associated with increased fall risk. This structured review examines the basic biology of gait in term of its kinematic properties and control. It describes the common gait disorders in advanced age and proposes a scheme for their recognition and evaluation in the regular ambu...

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: October 31, 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic had resulted in major disruptions in healthcare globally. As a response to the outbreak, global elective surgeries were suspended to preserve resources. To date, Malaysia’s effectiveness in tackling the COVID-19 was an instructive example for many East Asia countries. In addition to the public health preparedness, we report our experience in early restructuring of elective breast and endocrine cancer surgery to ensure a continuum in cancer care during the peak of the pand...
