Transient Hematotoxicity After Emerald Horned Pitviper (Ophryacus smaragdinus) Envenomation: A Case Report.

Background: A minority of snake envenomations in the United States involve non-native snakes. In this report, we describe what we believe is the first documented human envenoming from an emerald horned pitviper, Ophryacus smaragdinus.

Case Report: A previously healthy 36-year-old woman was bitten on her left index finger by a captive emerald horned pitviper she was medicating at work.

Doege-Potter Syndrome and Pierre-Marie-Bamberger Syndrome in a Patient With Pleural Solitary Fibrous Tumor: A Rare Case With Literature Review.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) represent a unique subset of mostly benign heterogeneous tumors with mesenchymal cell origins. These tumors have been reported in the past as being mostly indolent, with a slowly evolving clinical course and low potential for malignancy. Although found systemically, the incidence of SFT arising intrathoracically, from the pleura of the lung, is relatively poorly documented in the medical literature.
