Nontuberculous mycobacteria are rare causes of cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED)-related infections and may lead to device-related endocarditis, so preventing them is key. We present a case of CIED-related pocket infection due to Mycobacterium fortuitum which highlights the challenges in management of such infections.We should know that hepatocellular carcinoma can progress as if it replaces the bile duct wall itself.Longstanding osteomalacia, by its proliferative enthesopathic changes, may mimic the advanced features of SpA. Despite the typical radiological findings, the lack of response to anti-TNF should encourage clinicians to reconsider the diagnosis.When ascites fluids are observed under the microscope, unshaped greenish deposits should not be considered as artifacts but should rather prompt to bile leakage assessment.It is possible to have a spontaneous hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal perforation following yelling. We believe our case is the first study showing such an event, which can become catastrophic if not addressed in a timely manner.Insertable cardiac monitors in patients with situs inversus totalis can detect atrial arrhythmia as a cause of embolic stroke. It is important to premap the position of ICM in order to clearly visualize the P wave.Dysphagia may occur after a prolonged intubation due to COVID-19 but it is usually mild. Case reports on severe dysphagia following COVID-19 are infrequent. Diagnosis can be difficult because international indications recommend avoiding instrumental assessments as far as possible because of the infection risk. An early rehabilitation treatment is recommended.Injury to epicardial coronary arteries following mitral valve replacement surgery, albeit rare, could have fatal complications. In this case, we suggest conservative medical treatment as a safe approach in patients who are not suitable to undergo revascularization.This article highlights the possibility of positive outcomes associated with prolonged CPR and anoxic brain injury contesting the idea that such patients will invariably end up in a persistent vegetative state.Intestinal obstruction due to intussusception caused by intestinal lipomas is a rare condition in adults that needs urgent treatment. CT (Computerised Tomography) is the radiologic modality of choice for diagnosis. Surgery is the treatment of choice and has excellent outcome.L1syndrome is an X-linked disorder manifesting with congenital hydrocephalus, adducted thumbs and spasticity. DNA modulator There are rare cases of L1 syndrome and coincident Hirschsprung disease, with mutations in the L1CAM gene thought to underlie both. We present a novel pathogenic L1CAM variant in someone with L1 syndrome and Hirschsprung disease.Drug-drug interaction of fluorinated pyrimidine anticancer agents with phenytoin is well known, but interaction with phenobarbital is limited. We describe a case showing increases in plasma phenobarbital as well as phenytoin concentrations during preoperative S-1 (tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil) and radiation therapy for rectal cancer.The translocation PICALM/AF10 is described in multilineage diseases. We report a patient with PICALM/AF10 T/myeloid mixed-phenotype acute leukemia who achieved durable complete remission after AML-like treatment suggesting a myeloid origin.Amyloidosis is to be considered in the differential diagnosis of postoperative edema of tongue base after its ablation. It might be triggered by surgical trauma. After establishment of diagnosis, cause of secondary amyloidosis should be excluded.Fractured tracheostomy tube is a rare, late complication. It typically occurs at the junction of metallic tube. We report an atypical case with laceration of the main trunk of a silastic tube after short period of use (10 days).Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma rarely arises in bone. WWTR1-FOSB fusion gene is rarely reported in PMHE of bone. Currently, fusion genes can be used as diagnostic markers in PMHE; however, their prognostic and therapeutic significance is unclear.The use of plasma filtration with dialysis (PDF) may be considered when treating the acute phase of capillary leak syndrome (CLS). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report using PDF for CLS.A 66-year-old man presented with worsening dyspnea. A colonoscopy revealed an elevated lesion at the rectosigmoid junction. The biopsy specimen and bone marrow aspiration demonstrated adenocarcinoma, leading to a diagnosis of disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow. Because chemotherapy proved effective, he survived until 333 days after admission.Clinical data provided by the patient are not always reliable or could be difficult to collect. In this case, a difficult history collection resulted in a diagnostic delay. Major complications were avoided performing an urgent surgical intervention.This is the first report of a NACC2-NTRK2 fusion in a histological glioblastoma. Oncogenomic analysis revealed this actionable fusion oncogene in a pediatric cerebellar glioblastoma, which would not have been identified through routine diagnostics, demonstrating the value of clinical genome profiling in cancer care.Report of successful foreign body removal in a micro-preemie infant utilizing instruments outside of the normal armamentarium. Challenges encountered during the removal process of the foreign body and technique utilized are explained with the intention of providing steps that can be reproducible in a similar clinical setting.Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome in AIDS patients can lead to an initial worsening of underlying diseases due to body's ability to mount a strong immune response after recovery of CD4 counts.Keratosis lichenoides chronica (KLC) is a rare dermatosis which represents different clinical characteristics between adult- and pediatric-onset cases. We described a childhood case of KLC with features typical for adult-onset disease. Acitretin led to partial improvement of her skin, but not mucosal, lesions.Depending on the developing laparoscopic technique and experience, the treatment of cesarean scar choriocarcinoma can be safely performed laparoscopically by experts.
