Transudative chylothorax in a patient with lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

Transudative chylothorax is a rare type of pleural effusion. It has been described to be present in the setting of liver cirrhosis, heart failure, amyloidosis, nephrotic syndrome, superior vena cava thrombosis, sclerosing mesenteritis and heart failure. We present the case of an 86-year-old woman with a right-side transudative chylothorax associated with heart failure and lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

The clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of williams-campbell syndrome.

Williams-Campbell syndrome is a rare congenital syndrome characterized by the absence of cartilage in subsegmental bronchi leading to formation of bronchiectasis distal to the affected bronchi. The differential diagnosis of bronchiectasis is broad and the rarity of the disease poses a diagnostic and management challenge for clinicians. This present review aims to help the understanding of the clinical manifestations, pathophysiological features, diagnostic modalities, management and differential diagnosis of Williams-Campbell syndrome.

Marginal zone mucosa associated lymphoid tissue diffuse large B cell lymphoma.

Context: Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) primarily involving the orbit, is relatively uncommon. Rarely two pathologically different NHL cell types have been found to be coexistent.

Case Report: We report a case of orbital lymphoma in a 62-year-old male with rare histopathological findings secondary to transformation of once cell type into another.

Ventricular standstill: An uncommon electrophysiological abnormality caused by profound vagal tone.

Context: Ventricular standstill (VS) is an uncommon electrophysiological phenomenon and usually manifests as syncope. Rarely has a case been reported where the patient has been totally asymptomatic, and it has resolved spontaneously.

Case Report: We report a case of complete VS and high-degree atrioventricular (AV) block in a 50-year-old female, who was admitted for nausea, vomiting, and chest pain.

[Antimicrobial susceptibility of helicobacter pylori to levofloxacin determined in a miniwell format and disk diffusion tests using egg yolk agar].

Objectives: To determine the Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Levofloxacin against HELICOBACTER PYLORI (HP).

Materials And Methods: 95 HP Peruvian strains were evaluated in Agar dilution and Disk diffusion tests, as well as the Pearson Coefficient (r) and the inoculum's effect.

Results: 36.
