Iatrogenic Kaposi's Sarcoma: A Unique Case Unraveling Gastrointestinal Manifestations and Therapeutic Implications.

Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), linked to human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8), manifests in various clinical forms with iatrogenic KS uniquely tied to immune dysregulation induced by medical interventions. This study describes a 58-year-old male of sub-Saharan origin with a medical history of segmental and focal hyalinosis treated with methylprednisolone and mycophenolate mofetil. The patient developed skin lesions on both thighs, accompanied by post-prandial vomiting and abdominal pain.

Hypovolemic Shock Revealing a Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare neoplasms that originate in the gastrointestinal tract. Due to the nonspecific symptoms, they are often underdiagnosed. Patients typically present with abdominal pain, weight loss, asthenia, or a sensation of a "ball in the stomach.

Prevalence and Severity of Gastrointestinal Symptoms in COVID-19 Patients in Casablanca: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), responsible for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is behind the current pandemic. At the start of the pandemic, gastrointestinal symptoms initially described as rare were reported, but their spread to other countries increased rapidly. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of digestive symptoms among COVID-19 patients and to assess the correlation between these symptoms and disease severity.

Low Phospholipid-Associated Cholelithiasis: Contribution of Imaging in Two Cases.

Low phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis (LPAC) is a genetic disease responsible for the development of intrahepatic lithiasis. It is retained in the presence of two of the following three criteria: age of onset of biliary symptoms less than 40 years; echogenic intrahepatic images or microlithiasis; and the recurrence of biliary clinical signs after cholecystectomy. The majority of clinical situations are simple and not serious, but some complicated forms may require more invasive endoscopic or surgical treatments.

Massive Digestive Hemorrhagia Revealing a Gastro-Intestinal Stromal Tumor of the Jejunum.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumors that originate from Cajal cells located in different sites of the digestive system. They may occur in the entire gastrointestinal tract. They are diagnosed on the basis of the identification of c-kit-positive cells.
