Gastric Cancer With Multiple Bone Metastases: An Uncommon Primary Presentation.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a worldwide health condition of major concern, with gastric carcinoma with signet ring cell features being increasingly reported. A 61-year-old woman was admitted to the Emergency department with back pain, gastrointestinal complaints, and weight loss.

A Patient With (Initially) Non-Persistent Vertigo - A Posterior Circulation Stroke Case.

Posterior circulation strokes are responsible for about 20-25% of all ischemic strokes. Recognition and diagnosis of posterior circulation strokes or transient ischemic attacks is more difficult than that of other stroke types, being frequently misdiagnosed in acute setting/emergency evaluation - up to more than three times as often as anterior circulation strokes. In accordance with the guidelines in effect at the time of this case presentation, thrombolysis and medical therapy are the mainstay treatment.

Hyponatremia: A Tip of the Iceberg in the Late Diagnosis of Tuberous Sclerosis Associated With Lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

Tuberous sclerosis (TS) is a rare, autosomal dominant, multisystem genetic disease that causes multiple benign tumors in the brain and other vital organs. Rarely, it can be associated with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LMA) that is characterized by the proliferation of immature smooth muscle cells in the walls of the airways, venules, and lymphatic vessels in the lung. Here, we present the case of a 44-year-old intellectually disabled woman with a history of marked polydipsia who presented to the emergency department with persistent vomiting.
