Large ventricular myxoma causing inflow and outflow obstruction of the right ventricle; A Case Report.

Background: Myxomas are the most common primary benign heart tumors, typically found in the left atrium, with only 2-4% occurring in the right ventricle. Clinical presentations vary widely, including congestive heart failure and systemic embolic phenomena. This case report describes a rare right ventricular myxoma causing both inflow and outflow obstruction, presenting as progressive exertional dyspnea.

Successful Intrasaccular Microcoil Embolization of a Lower Segment Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm in a Patient With Behcet's Disease.

Behcet's disease (BD) is an uncommon, long-term inflammatory condition characterized by recurring ulcers in the mouth and genital area, uveitis, and various systemic issues. One of the particularly rare but severe complications of this disease is the formation of pulmonary artery aneurysms (PAAs). Although these aneurysms are uncommon, they can lead to dangerous pulmonary hemorrhages (PHs), which are often fatal, requiring prompt diagnosis and intervention.

Unraveling a Rare Case of Epidural Extramedullary Hematopoiesis in a Patient With Transfusion-Dependent Beta Thalassemia Presenting With Spinal Cord Compression.

Thalassemia is known to induce extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH), which is a compensatory mechanism in which the body forms blood cells outside the bone marrow. While EMH typically affects organs such as the spleen and liver, there are rare instances where it leads to spinal cord compression (SCC) in the epidural space. A 31-year-old male patient with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia presented with numbness and bilateral limb weakness due to EMH.
