Susac syndrome: A rare pediatric case.

Susac syndrome is a rare microangiopathy of unclear etiology, likely autoimmune, characterized by a characteristic clinical triad of encephalopathy, retinopathy, and hypoacusis. The majority of cases reported in the literature involve adult patients, with its occurrence in the pediatric population being extremely rare. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is essential for diagnosis and patient monitoring, revealing nearly pathognomonic features, particularly valuable given the typically incomplete clinical triad and the consistent presence of encephalopathy, often as the initial symptom.

Hematemesis in a young patient: When the cause is ingested: A case report.

Foreign bodies may be ingested accidentally or intentionally. Generally, they pass through the digestive tract without causing complications unless they become lodged. Patients often present with nonspecific clinical symptoms, and diagnosis is frequently delayed because they do not recall ingesting anything.

Mycotic Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm a Rare Complication of Ventricular Septal Defect With Infective Endocarditis: A Case Report.

Introduction: Pulmonary artery aneurysms encompass a wide range of presentations and forms. Mycotic aneurysms represent a particular subset of focal dilatation of the vessel wall with high morbidity and mortality rates. Herein, we report the case of a 32 year old patient, with a prior history of ventricular septal defect presenting with a mycotic pulmonary artery aneurysm associated with infective endocarditis and septic emboli.

High grade Burkitt lymphoma in an immunocompetent young patient: Concomitant gastric and ileal localizations.

Burkitt lymphoma is a highly aggressive and rapidly growing B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma with heterogeneous pattern of manifestations. We present a rare case of a 39-year-old immunocompetent male with double localization of Burkitt lymphoma: gastroduodenal and ileal tract. The gastric location is extremely rare, and the association with another site is unusual with only few reports in the literature.

Massive brown tumors of the jaw: A case report.

Brown tumors are non-neoplastic bone lesions caused by an abnormal remodeling of the bone that may occur with primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism. Their radiological aspect: lytic and aggressive can easily be misdiagnosed for a malignant origin hence the importance of knowing that diagnosis is to be considered through both clinical context and radiological semiology, which will be detailed via this case of a 32-year-old female patient with an end-stage kidney disease, admitted for facial disfiguration and palpable masses corresponding to brown tumors affecting the maxilla and the mandibular bone.

An atypical cause of vomiting: Coexisting Wilkie's syndrome and a left renal malformation mimicking a nutcracker phenomenon-A case report.

The superior mesenteric artery syndrome and nutcracker phenomenon are rare vascular disorders due to the abnormal development of the superior mesenteric artery stemming from the abdominal aorta with reduced angle (<22°) and resultant compression of the left renal vein and duodenum. It is an underreported entity due to the absence of specific pathognomonic signs. We report the case of a 59-year-old man, admitted for acute bilious vomiting, who underwent a gastroscopy and a computed tomography scan revealing a Wilkie's syndrome associated with a dilated posterior left renal vein communicating with the left ascending lumbar vein without connection with the inferior vena cava mimicking a nutcracker phenomenon.

Septic Shock Following Operative Hysteroscopy in a Menopausal Woman: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery such as hysteroscopy has a low risk of complications. Infections, however, are more common in the presence of risk factors such as smoking, history of pelvic inflammatory disease, and endometriosis. We report the case of a patient who underwent operative hysteroscopy without immediate complications and was admitted 2 days later to the emergency department in a severe state of septic shock.

Child gigantomastia revealing juvenile giant fibroadenomas.

Breast masses in children and adolescents are uncommon. They can be caused by tumors such as fibroadenomas and phyllode tumors. These masses can cause gigantomastia, due to their rapidly increasing size.

Infected Biloma after Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration.

Biloma is a severe complication that can result from bile duct disruption or hepatic trauma. It can occur after biliary surgery such as cholecystectomy or an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography manipulation and endoscopic biliary sphincterotomy. We present the case of a 59-year-old man admitted for jaundice, with pain in his right flank and fever, 10 days after an endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for an ill-defined pancreatic lesion, associated with an infected biloma.

Scrotal Verrucous Carcinoma: An Exceptional Localization of a Rare Tumor.

Scrotal verrucous carcinoma is a rare entity. It is rarely metastatic especially in lymph nodes. Imaging is important for local extension in order to guide the surgical procedure.

Lymphoma presenting as small bowel obstruction: A case report.

Small bowel lymphoma accounts for 10%-30% of gastro-intestinal tumors. Clinical presentation is not specific. CT scans helps the diagnosis showing some characteristic appearances such as wall thickening of the loops, enlarged lymph nodes and infiltration of mesenteric fat.

Metastasis frontal sinus from rectal adenocarcinoma: A rare case.

Metastatic tumors of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are much less common than primary cancer in this location. The clinical symptomatology is not specific. We report a case of frontal metastasis of a 49-year-old patient treated for a rectal adenocarcinoma without other secondary localizations.
