Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare, progressive, life-threating disease that frequently has a genetic component; it is usually caused by familial, sporadic or idiopathic reasons. We report a case of aHUS in a 21-month-old girl with coexisting of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase mutations, homocysteinemia and thalassemia minor complicated by peripheral gangrene as extrarenal manifestation.
several genetic disorders are known to be associated with congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP), a term often used to describe an impaired ability to perceive the type, intensity and quality of noxious stimuli. Children with CIP often injure themselves severely. GF120918 The injury can go unnoticed or be misdiagnosed as child abuse because it is associated with multiple and recurrent injuries which may result in permanent damage.

we report the case of a 5-year-old boy with a history of showing no signs of pain when exposed to accidental injuries such as trauma, burns or secondary chronic lesions.

child abuse has a much higher occurrence rate than rare neuropathies such as the one we describe. link2 However, CIP should be considered as a diagnosis in any child presenting with a history of poor or absent responses to painful stimuli.

Examination showed eczematous patches with lichenified papules, erosions on the right shin and a new murmur. Blood cultures isolated methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. Transthoracic echocardiography showed vegetation on the tricuspid valve (TV) that was adherent to the septal leaflet. He was treated for infective endocarditis, attributed to poorly controlled AD, with intravenous Flucloxacillin. Due to ongoing sepsis and pulmonary septic emboli, Clindamycin was added. He underwent TV repair; the septal leaflet was excised, and the remnant two leaflets were brought together with a ring. His patent foramen ovale was closed. His skin was treated with topical steroids and emollients. Right-sided endocarditis of an intact TV is uncommon in a non-intravenous drug user. Therefore, this novel case portrays the importance of aggressively managing AD as it is a risk factor for significant systemic infections.We report the case of a 48-year-old man who was unexpectedly found by abdominal ultrasonography to have large retroperitoneal masses accompanied by Graves' disease. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging further demonstrated giant fat-rich soft masses arising within both renal sinuses. Histopathological examination of the mass was performed twice at 5-year intervals, with both examinations indicating fatty tissue cells with chronic fibrous panniculitis. Intravenous pulse therapy and successive oral glucocorticoid therapy were ineffective against Graves' ophthalmopathy or mass lesion. An antithyroid hormone regimen was followed by subtotal thyroid resection, leading to improvements in hyperthyroidism. Mass growth then attenuated slowly as the thyroid hormones returned to normal levels. The long-term follow-up of this patient should carefully monitor the appearance of warning signs such as mass effects.
Early injection of anti-mamushi venom serum (antiserum) is believed to be effective for the treatment of patients with mamushi bites. However, there is no firm information that indicates the time range constituting "early" injection. We tried to quantify the cut-off time of antiserum injection that brings favorable clinical courses by clarifying the relationship between the injection time and clinical outcome.

We retrospectively analyzed the relationships between the time after bite, injection time of the antiserum, swelling grades, and laboratory values.

The injection time of the antiserum in severe cases was significantly delayed as compared with non-severe cases. The best cut-off time of the antiserum injection that could distinguish non-severe and severe cases was 14h. In the group that received the antiserum within 14h, the antiserum injection may have successfully arrested the grade progression in a substantial number of cases. In the other group receiving the antiserum beyond 14h, the grades in many cases possibly may have peaked by the time of antiserum injection.

The cut-off time of early injection for favorable clinical course was determined to be 14h. A statistical basis concerning the appropriate antiserum injection time was made to help prevent a severe clinical course due to delayed injection.

Symmetry during lifting is considered critical for allowing balanced power production and avoidance of injury. This investigation assessed the influence of elevating the heels on bilateral lower limb symmetry during loaded (50% of body weight) high-bar back squats.

Ten novice (mass 67.6 ± 12.4 kg, height 1.73 ± 0.10 m) and ten regular weight trainers (mass 66.0 ± 10.7 kg, height 1.71 ± 0.09 m) were assessed while standing on both the flat level floor and on an inclined board. Data collection used infra-red motion capture procedures and two force platforms to record bilateral vertical ground reaction force (GRF
) and ankle, knee and hip joint kinematic and kinetic data. link3 Paired t-tests and statistical parametric mapping (SPM1D) procedures were used to assess differences in discrete and continuous bilateral symmetry data across conditions.

Although discrete joint kinematic and joint moment symmetry data were largely unaffected by raising the heels, the regular weight trainers presented greater bilateral agh a degree of bilateral lower limb asymmetry is common in individuals performing back squats, the degree of this symmetry is largely unaffected by raising the heels. Differences in results for discrete and time-series symmetry analyses also highlight a key issue associated with relying solely on discrete data techniques to assess bilateral symmetry during tasks such as the back squat.Gastrointestinal complications in critically ill patients during the COVID-19 pandemic pose a diagnostic and treatment dilemma. We present a case of a 74-year-old male who was brought to our emergency department with worsening shortness of breath, fever, and dry cough and was found to have COVID-19 pneumonia. Early in his hospital course, he was admitted to the intensive care unit, and was found to have significant abdominal distension with large amounts of simple fluid on bedside ultrasound. Bedside paracentesis returned succus and enteric feeds, and a methylene blue test confirmed a likely gastrointestinal perforation. The patients' family refused surgical intervention and the patient underwent bedside drainage. This case represents several critical dilemmas clinicians faced during the recent surge of the COVID-19 pandemic.We present a rare case of a 61-year-old woman presenting with a widespread erosive eruption on her torso and extremities. Although the lesions were histologically compatible with toxic epidermal necrolysis, clinically the patient was hemodynamically stable, had no mucosal involvement and had no relevant medical history or potentially incriminating medications. Further investigations uncovered a new diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, with this toxic epidermal necrolysis-like eruption being the first presentation of the disease. This case highlights the importance of broadening the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with acute widespread cleavage of the epidermis, using the spectrum of acute syndrome of apoptotic pan-epidermolysis as a reference.Metastatic carcinomas in the nasopharynx are a rarity. We report a case of a 54-year-old male patient who presented with a history of recurrent epistaxis. On evaluation, a mass in the right Rosenmüller fossa was detected, which was biopsied and diagnosed as a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, immunoreactive for thyroid transcription factor-1, consistent with metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) scan confirmed the presence of a mass in the upper lobe of the left lung, proven pathologically to be a poorly differentiated pulmonary adenocarcinoma, with an immunoprofile similar to the nasopharyngeal tumor. The patient underwent palliative chemotherapy, and was then shifted to immunotherapy. He is currently alive and disease free 50 months after the initial diagnosis was made. The unusual presentation of a metastatic carcinoma in the nasopharynx will be discussed, along with a review of literature. The role of immunotherapy in cancer control and greater longevity will also be presented.A 65-year-old male received coil embolization for a large internal carotid-posterior communicating artery aneurysm. Pre- and postoperative angiography at surgery demonstrated that the ipsilateral anterior choroidal artery branched from the internal carotid artery near the distal side of the aneurysm, and elevated and expanded on the aneurysmal dome, but was clearly visualized. Three days following endovascular treatment, the patient presented hemiparesis on the left side, with brain infarction in the territory of the right anterior choroidal artery despite antithrombotic therapy. The delayed brain infarction was likely caused by a reduction in anterior choroidal artery perfusion caused by mechanical compression following a postoperative increase in internal carotid-posterior communicating artery aneurysmal volume during intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. Transient volume expansion after coil embolization for intracranial aneurysms is rarely reported as a cause of brain infarction. It is important to recognize these arteries as potential postoperative complication risks, and consider the use of open surgery to avoid this risk.Ludwig's angina is a high severity infection because of the risk of airway obstruction due to the rapid spread of the abscess into the deeper spaces. Therefore, performing the correct treatment is one of the keys to a successful result. A 44-year-old male patient came to the Emergency Unit of Hasan Sadikin Hospital, complaining of shortness of breath, severe pain, and progressive swelling. Extraoral examination showed a localized-fluctuated swelling located at the right lower jaw that extended to the chin, left lower jaw, and the frontal region of the neck region while a sequential organ failure assessment revealed a score of 2. A diagnosis of Ludwig's angina and septic shock was confirmed. Intravenous infusion of norepinephrine was administered and a tracheostomy was performed. The next treatment phase consisted of a drainage procedure, tooth extraction, and placement of the Penrose drain. The patient was discharged 10 days later with a satisfactory outcome.
