Ascites revealing peritoneal amyloidosis and IgG kappa multiple myeloma: A case report.

AL amyloidosis is a rare systemic disease characterized by the deposition of amyloid protein in various organs, including the kidneys, heart, peripheral nervous system, digestive tract, skin, and muscles. Peritoneal involvement in AL amyloidosis is exceptionally rare. We present a unique case of AL amyloidosis with concurrent cardiac, cutaneous, and peritoneal manifestations.

Pseudomicroangiopathic Thrombotic Syndrome: Unveiling the Vitamin B12 Deficiency Connection.

Pernicious anemia, a manifestation of vitamin B12 deficiency, can present with a spectrum of hematological abnormalities, sometimes mimicking more severe conditions such as thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). This case report details a 53-year-old female who presented with significant weight loss, watery diarrhea, and jaundice. Laboratory investigations revealed pancytopenia, hemolysis, and schistocytes, initially suggesting a diagnosis of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA).

[Bilateral sub-acute upper limb ischemia revealing Horton's disease, a rare presentation : A case report and literature review].

Study's Goal: Our goal is to enrich the medical literature by sharing our experience in managing a case of sub-acute upper limb ischemia that revealed Horton's disease. This is particularly relevant given the current lack of well-established guidelines.

Introduction: Acute upper limb ischemia is rarely seen in Horton's disease.

Bronchial Fissuring: A Severe Complication of Arterial Aneurysm.

Arterial aneurysms are rare and may occur in the context of Behçet's disease. The natural progression of these aneurysms can lead to an increase in their size and eventual rupture into the bronchi, causing life-threatening hemoptysis. We report a case of a subclavian artery aneurysm in a 30-year-old female patient with Behçet's disease who presented with moderate hemoptysis caused by a fistulized left subclavian artery aneurysm into the left main bronchus.

Primary Breast Tuberculosis Concealed Behind Granulomatous Mastitis.

Granulomatous mastitis is an inflammatory disease that often affects women with a history of breastfeeding. The pathogenesis is still unclear and several factors have been incriminated, such as trauma, metabolic and hormonal disorders, infections, and autoimmunity. This poses a diagnostic issue, given that there are several different diagnoses, particularly carcinomatous mastitis.
