Ludwig's Angina and Treatment Considerations in the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Introduction: Ludwig's angina is a type of severe cellulitis that spreads rapidly and carries a significant risk of airway compromise. Previous complications with COVID-19 are poorly described within the literature.

Case Presentation: This case report describes the complication of COVID-19 infection with suspected Ludwig's angina 2 days after admission, resulting in awake fibroscopic endotracheal intubation.

Large embolus in transit - an unresolved therapeutic dilemma (case report and review of literature).

Floating right heart thrombus, also known as "emboli in transit" is a potentially fatal condition, of varying etiology and usually coexisting with massive pulmonary embolism. Although the mortality rate is as high as 40%, there are no established therapeutic guidelines. A case is presented of an 84 year old female with a history of colon cancer and coronary artery disease who presented with sudden onset unresponsiveness.
