Triple case report of persistent sciatic artery in Ethiopia: a rare vascular anomaly.

Persistent sciatic artery (PSA) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly resulting from embryologic axial artery malformation in the lower limb. This case report presents three patients aged 45-60, each with bilateral PSA presenting with symptoms indicative of PSA complications, including aneurysmal degeneration, limb ischemia, thromboembolism, or neuralgia from nerve compression. It highlights the diagnostic process, management strategies, and clinical outcomes observed at a tertiary referral hospital.

Acute limb ischemia in COVID-19 patients despite therapeutic anticoagulation: Experience from Africa.

Background: Hypercoagulability is a common complication seen in COVID-19 infection. However, arterial thrombosis such as acute limb ischemia (ALI) is far less common. Data on the incidence and nature of arterial thromboembolic complications in patients with COVID-19 is limited, originating from a few case reports and case series.

Imaging Findings of Concomitant Pulmonary and Central Nervous System Sarcoidosis: A Case Report.

Background: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem idiopathic granulomatous disorder characterized by the development of noncaseating infiltrative granulomas in various body organs. The central nervous system (CNS) is one of the sites to be affected by sarcoidosis. We present a case of sarcoidosis with concomitant involvement of lung and CNS with emphasis on neuroimaging findings.

Intrathoracic giant solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura: Case report.

Introduction: Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Pleura(SFTP) is exceedingly rare mesenchymal tumor commonly arising from the visceral pleura and accounts for <5% of all pleural tumors. Although it commonly has benign histologic characteristics, the tumor behavior is often unpredictable and less understood due to limited number of cases.

Case Presentation: We present a rare case of Intrathoracic Giant SFTP in a 65 years old female who presented with a progressive worsening of shortness of breath of 1 year duration associated with intermittent dry cough, low grade fever, easy fatigability and loss of appetite.
