Accelerated osteomesh resorption: a case report.

ABSTRACT: Facial fractures occur commonly as a result of blunt trauma from road traffic accidents, assaults, and sporting injuries. Orbital floor fractures form a significant proportion of these and when large enough, the defect often requires surgical reconstruction of the floor to prevent orbital content herniation. Here, we present a case of a 28-year-old gentleman, who sustained an orbital floor fracture from a soccer-related injury. The resulting floor defect was surgically repaired using an osteomesh that was hand-cut to size. He developed delayed enophthalmos and entrapment of the inferior rectus muscle due to early resorption of the osteomesh, requiring revision surgery.

Complete resorption of the humerus in metastatic thyroid carcinoma: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundThyroid carcinoma is the most common endocrinological malignancy, but its spread to bone is rare. Particularly, bone metastases leading to complete resorption of the humerus are extremely uncommon. We aimed to explore factors affecting treatment decision in humeral metastasis by presenting a case and analyze the possible treatments via conducting a literature review.Case presentationWe described a case of a 68-year-old woman experiencing chronic pain in her right upper arm for six years. Clinical, radiological, and pathological evaluations confirmed humeral metastasis from thyroid carcinoma. Surgical treatments like tumor removal or limb amputation were suggested for prolonging life and pain relief, but the patient refused them and pursued conservative managements such as herbal medicine, radioactive iodine (131I) therapy, and Levothyroxine Sodium(L-T4). The humeral destruction aggravated gradually, ultimately leading to complete resorption of her right humerus. The patient could not move her right shoulder, but her forearm motion was almost normal; thus, she could complete most of her daily living activities independently. Surgical treatments such as limb amputation were advised but she still refused them for preservation of the residual limb function and preferred conservative managements.ConclusionA personalized multidisciplinary approach is important for patients with bone metastasis. The balance between limb amputation for life-prolonging and pain relief and limb salvage for preservation of residual function and social and psychological well-being should be considered. Our literature review revealed that some novel surgical treatments and techniques are available for bone metastases. This case adds to our current understanding of bone metastases and will contribute to future research and treatments.

Multiple chromoanasynthesis in a rare case of sporadic renal leiomyosarcoma: case report

Project description:Renal leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are extremely rare neoplasms with aggressive behaviour and poor survival prognosis. The most frequent somatic events in leiomyosarcomas are mutations in TP53, RB1, ATRX and PTEN genes, chromosomal instability and chromoanagenesis. By using chromosomal microarray analysis we identified monosomy of chromosomes 3 and 11, gain of Xp (ATRX) arm and three chromoanasynthesis regions (6q21-q27, 7p22.3-p12.1 and 12q13.11-q21.2), with MDM2 and CDK4 oncogenes copy number gains, whereas no CNVs or tumor specific SNVs in TP53, RB1 and PTEN genes were observed.

Glioneuronal tumor with CLIP2-MET fusion: A case report

Project description:Glioneuronal tumor (GN) is one type of biphasic central nervous system (CNS) tumor that exhibits both glial and neuronal immunohistological characteristics. We report a case of glioneuronal tumor (GN) with a discovery of novel gene fusion of CLIP2-MET resulting from aberrant chromosome 7 abnormalities. The tumor exhibited typical characteristics on histological examinations. We executed an elaborate genomic study on this case including whole-exome sequencing and RNA sequencing. Genomic analysis of the tumor revealed aberrations in chromosomes 1 and 7 and a CLIP2-MET fusion. Further analysis of the upregulated genes revealed substantial connections with MAPK pathway activation. We concluded that the chromosome 7 abnormalities prompted CLIP2-MET gene fusion which successively leads to MAPK pathway activation. We deliberated that MAPK pathway activation is responsible for the oncogenesis of GN based on our case and other previously reported ones.

Hypothermia-induced accelerated idioventricular rhythm after cardiac surgery; a case report

Project description:Background Accelerated idioventricular rhythm (AIVR) is a slow ventricular arrhythmia, commonly due to myocardial ischemia in coronary artery disease. It is a transitory rhythm that rarely causes hemodynamic instability or necessitates any specific therapy. Besides, the common predisposing factors for ventricular arrhythmias after open-heart surgery are hemodynamic instability, electrolyte imbalances, hypoxia, hypovolemia, myocardial ischemia and infarction, acute graft closure, reperfusion injury, and administration of inotropes and antiarrhythmic drugs. Here we report a case of AIVR after cardiac surgery, mostly due to hypothermia that to our knowledge, it is the first report. Case presentation We describe a 76-year-old man presenting with typical chest pain. Following routine investigations, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass grafting. Postoperatively, he was transferred to the intensive care unit with good hemodynamic status. However, about 3 h later, he developed rhythm disturbances, leading to hemodynamic instability without response to volume replacement or inotropic support. His rhythm was AIVR, although, at first glance, it resembled the left bundle branch block. Given his unstable hemodynamic status, he was emergently transferred to the operating room. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was resumed for hemodynamic support. After the patient was rewarmed to about 35 ºC, AIVR returned to normal. He was weaned from CPB successfully and with an uneventful hospital course. Conclusions Hypothermia is a potential cause of rhythm disturbance. Preventing the causes of arrhythmias, including hypothermia, is the best strategy.

Moving to accelerated protocols of tDCS in catatonia: a case report.

Project description:Catatonia is a severe and potentially life-threatening neuropsychiatric condition. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is the gold standard second-line intervention for catatonia after benzodiazepine failure. However, the access to ECT can be particularly challenging, especially during periods of increased strain on medical facilities, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Several case reports have suggested the potential efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in addressing catatonia. In our case, we present the successful application of intensive tDCS, delivering five sessions per day, each lasting 20 min, with an intensity of 2 mA. The tDCS montage involved placing the anode on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and the cathode on the left temporoparietal junction (TPJ). This approach was well-tolerated and resulted in a significant improvement in a 70-year-old patient with catatonia, for whom ECT was deemed necessary. While these results are promising, it is crucial to confirm them through a randomized controlled study.
