Syphilitic gumma presenting as squamous cell carcinoma of Vulva: A case report.

Introduction: Tertiary syphilis, a late form of the disease with neurologic, cutaneous, and cardiovascular manifestations, is rarely seen in the United States in modern times. Also called the "great imitator," syphilis tends to mimic other disease processes, which can lead to a delay in proper diagnosis and treatment.

Case: We present the case of a 59-year-old woman who presented for evaluation of possible squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva.

Exploring Prognostic Implications of Race and Ethnicity in Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease.

Introduction: Significant health inequalities in major adverse limb events exist. Ethnically minoritized groups are more prone to have a major adverse event following peripheral vascular interventions. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to describe the postoperative implications of racial and ethnic status on clinical outcomes following vascular interventions for claudication and chronic limb-threatening ischemia.

Endovascular treatment of an iatrogenic right subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm associated with an arteriovenous fistula.

This report describes the case of a frail 36-year-old patient who underwent an endovascular treatment of a right subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm (SAP) associated with an arteriovenous fistula secondary to a traumatic central venous catheter insertion. The deployment of a covered stent from the innominate to the right common carotid artery combined with coiling of the SAP and the internal mammary artery was performed. Two additional covered stents were deployed from the vertebral artery to the distal subclavian artery to preserve right upper extremity circulation.

A mycotic aneurysm of a jejunal branch treated by aneurysmectomy without bowel resection.

Jejunal artery pseudoaneurysms are extremely rare, accounting for <1% of all visceral artery pseudoaneurysms. Fewer than 50 cases were reported in literature during the previous century. This case report describes the case of a 72-year-old man who underwent aneurysmectomy to treat a 21-mm mycotic jejunal artery pseudoaneurysm found in the setting of endocarditis.

Exploitation of Outgoing and Incoming Telephone Calls in the Context of Circadian Rhythms of Social Activity Among Elderly People: Observational Descriptive Study.

Background: In the elderly population, analysis of the circadian rhythms of social activity may help in supervising homebound disabled and chronically ill populations. Circadian rhythms are monitored over time to determine, for example, the stability of the organization of daily social activity rhythms and the occurrence of particular desynchronizations in the way older adults act and react socially during the day. Recently, analysis of telephone call detail records has led to the possibility of determining circadian rhythms of social activity in an objective unobtrusive way for young patients from their outgoing telephone calls.
