Metastatic Lung Cancer with Multiorgan Thrombosis and Budd-Chiari Syndrome: A Rare Case.

Unlabelled: Arterial thrombosis and Budd-Chiari syndrome are rare conditions in lung cancer patients. We report the case of a 53-year-old woman who presented with respiratory symptoms, lumbar pain, weight and appetite loss, and an x-ray showing a lung nodule and diffuse micro-opacities. She was diagnosed with lung neoplasia with extensive lung, liver, lymph node and bone metastases.

Symmetrical Drug-related Intertriginous and Flexural Exanthema (Baboon Syndrome).

Unlabelled: Baboon syndrome, also called symmetrical drug-related intertriginous and flexural exanthema (SDRIFE), is an erythematous maculopapular rash that presents in skin folds in a symmetrical pattern. This condition may develop after the patient starts a particular agent. Treatment consists of stopping the associated trigger and medicating with topical or systemic corticosteroids.

Performance assessment of 11 commercial serological tests for SARS-CoV-2 on hospitalised COVID-19 patients.

Background: Commercial availability of serological tests to evaluate immunoglobulins (Ig) targeting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has grown exponentially since the start of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. Thorough validation of these tests is important before use as epidemiological tools to infer seroprevalence in specific populations and as diagnostic tools to complement molecular approaches (e.g.

Disseminated Tuberculosis: A Case of Multiple Spread Mass.

Disseminated tuberculosis is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It results from a lymphohematogenous dissemination of mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) and its atypical clinical presentation often delays the diagnosis. Diagnosis is established by identifying MT obtained from a biopsy sample in culture or acid-fast smear.
