A Rare Case of Brodie's Abscess in the Tibial Diaphysis Masquerading as a Vaso-occlusive Sickle Crisis.

We present the case of a 19-year-old male with a history of sickle cell anemia who presented to the hospital with worsening lower extremity pain. Given his acute presentation and history of recurrent pain crises, he was admitted to the hospital for management of a suspected acute pain crisis. However, due to continued pain, imaging was obtained which revealed a different diagnosis for the cause of his symptoms.

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Lean/Nonobese and Obese Individuals: A Comprehensive Review on Prevalence, Pathogenesis, Clinical Outcomes, and Treatment.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, with an estimated prevalence of 25% globally. NAFLD is closely associated with metabolic syndrome, which are both becoming increasingly more common with increasing rates of insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Although NAFLD is strongly associated with obesity, lean or nonobese NAFLD is a relatively new phenotype and occurs in patients without increased waist circumference and with or without visceral fat.

Characterization of Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Patients With MYH9-Related Disease: A Systematic Review.

Objectives: To review the characteristics and progression of hearing loss in MYH9-related disease (MYH9-RD) patients and present a unique case of bilateral non-simultaneous sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in an MYH9-RD patient. MYH9-RD is a rare autosomal dominant platelet disorder. Patients with this disorder have a variable risk of developing SNHL.
