Burkitt lymphoma in a scalp region: a case report of it's recurrence in a 13-year-old child.

Introduction: Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by chromosome 8 MYC gene translocation. It manifests in three clinical types: immunodeficiency-related, sporadic (nonendemic), and endemic (African), each differing in epidemiology and clinical behavior. Treatment typically involves enrollment in clinical trials or intensive chemotherapy regimens like R-CODOX-M/IVAC.

Epidermal cyst protruding from the occipital region of the scalp: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Epidermal cysts are the most common subcutaneous tumor typically observed on the scalp, face, neck, back, or trunk. Epidermal cysts conventionally range in size from 1 to 5 cm, with sizes greater than 5 cm rarely reported.

Case Presentation: Here, we present a case of a 58-year-old female housewife who presented to our surgery outpatient department (OPD) with a history of a mass in the left occipital region.

Dilemma in diagnosing incomplete Kawasaki disease in a resource limited setting.

Introduction And Importance: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile systemic vasculitis that predominantly affects small to medium sized vessels and mostly occurs in children below 5 years of age. The morbidity and mortality mostly occur due to cardiac involvement.

Case Presentation: The authors present a case of a 5-year-old male child from hilly region of Nepal who presented with fever for 7 days along with strawberry tongue and non-exudative conjunctivitis without rashes, extremity changes or lymphadenopathy.

Acute reversible monoparesis in multiple neurocysticercosis: A case report and review of literature.

Focal neurological deficit like monoparesis due to cortical lesions is a rare entity. In spite of the common presentations like seizures and headaches in neurocysticercosis, occurrence of reversible monoparesis is an atypical phenomenon. Even in the absence of infarct or hemorrhages, manifestation of neural deficit due to compressive effect only is an interesting finding.

Overlapping Symptoms of COVID-19 and Giant Cell Arteritis: The Need for a Higher Degree of Suspicion for Diagnostic Differentiation.

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a large cell vasculitis that can present with a plethora of symptoms affecting several different systems. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, diagnosis of GCA was straightforward since the list of differential diagnoses for this disease was relatively short. However, the development of a SARS-CoV-2 viral infection challenges this standard.

Internet Addiction among Undergraduate Medical Students of a Medical College: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.

Introduction: Internet addiction denotes the compulsive use of the internet which affects physical, mental, social, psychological and academic aspects of life of an individual. Very few studies among medical students in regard to internet addiction have been conducted. Our study aimed to determine the prevalence of internet addiction among undergraduate medical students of a medical college.

Case Report: Pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma in a female patient from Nepal.

Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is an uncommon subtype of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Even in the early stages, pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC) has a dismal prognosis when compared to other kinds of NSCLC with a mean survival of 9-12 months and a five-year survival rate of around 20%.

Scenario of Head Injury Patients in Tertiary Care Hospital of Nepal.

Background: The aim of the study is to find out the age and sex distribution, modes of head injury and correlate Glasgow Coma Scale with Computed Tomography in patients with head trauma in our center.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed among 113 patients of acute head trauma presenting to Emergency department of our hospital for three months. The severity of the head injury was assessed on admission by the Glasgow Coma Scale score and categorized as mild, moderate, or severe head injury.

Prevalence of Ruptured Intracranial Aneurysms in a Tertiary Care Hospital of Nepal.

Introduction: Intracranial aneurysms affect 3-8 percent of the world's population, with ruptured aneurysms being the most common cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. The sensitivity of Computed Tomography Angiogram in diagnosing intracranial aneurysm is 97%. The aim of our study is to find out the prevalence of ruptured intracranial aneurysms among all the admitted cases encountered in our hospital.
