Article Synopsis
- * Conducted at the Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplant, it examined data from 1,000 biopsy patients, finding that 4.8% had idiopathic steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome, primarily affecting males aged around 5 years.
- * Results showed that among those treated with cyclosporin, 67% achieved complete remission, indicating promising outcomes for many patients despite the initial resistance to steroids.
Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare disorder in which there is development of multiple venous malformations and haemangiomas in the skin and visceral organs. The lesions mostly involve the skin and gastrointestinal systems but other organs, including the liver, muscles, and the central nervous system, can also be involved. If untreated, affected individuals develop severe anaemia.

Objective: To determine the rates of occurrence of new symptomatic vasospasm in previously asymptomatic arterial distributions among patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) who underwent targeted endovascular treatment for focal symptomatic vasospasm.
Methods: We identified all patients with SAH who had received targeted endovascular treatment during a 4-year period.
