Acute splenic hematoma: A rare complication of snake bite.

Splenic hematoma secondary to snake bite is a potential complication due to snake envenomation and poses a significant risk to the health of the patients. Although relatively rare, this complication once diagnosed, should be initiated with timely anti-venom administration and supportive care. Clinicians must be aware of any signs of hematological abnormalities in snakebite patients, as the development of splenic hematoma can have serious implications for patient outcomes.

Dandy Walker variant with agenesis of corpus callosum diagnosed late prenatally by foetal ultrasound: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Dandy Walker variant is an intracranial disorder involving variable hypoplasia of cerebellar vermis without posterior fossa enlargement. An anomaly scan performed at mid second trimester has good sensitivity and specificity for detecting foetal congenital anomalies. Despite that, some cases like the authors' might go undiagnosed due to normal biometric parameters for that gestational age and may be detected later in intrauterine life.

Paraneoplastic movement disorder due to suspected metastatic Leiomyosarcoma of tongue: A case report.

Paraneoplastic movement disorders, though rare, can be the initial symptoms of malignancies like leiomyosarcoma, as in our case. Clinicians should keep malignancies in their differential diagnosis in cases of unexplained movement abnormalities.

Paediatric Moyamoya disease: acute presentation with fever and confusion in an 8-year-old: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Moyamoya is a chronic vaso-occlusive cerebrovascular disorder which involves internal carotid artery and its proximal branches, forming compensatory Moyamoya vessels. It may manifest with diverse symptoms, but early detection is crucial for a favourable prognosis.

Case Presentation: The authors present a case of an 8-year-old child who presented to the emergency with acute onset fever and confusion in speech.

Hypokalemic Paralysis Revealing Primary Sjogren's Syndrome: A Case Report.

Unlabelled: Sjogren's syndrome is a rare chronic autoimmune disease characterised by dry eyes and dry mouth due to autoimmune destruction of the lacrimal and salivary glands, which can occur concurrently with other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or thyroiditis. It can lead to renal complications such as interstitial nephritis and glomerulonephritis, with distal/ type 1 renal tubular acidosis which may result in life-threatening electrolyte imbalance. We present a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with complaints of multiple episodes of muscle weakness.

Postoperative surgical site infection after preoperative use of razor versus clipper for hair removal in inguinal hernia surgery: A quasi-randomized clinical trial.

Trail Design: Quasi-randomized clinical trial.

Methods: : This study includes adult patients (≥18 years) who gave written consent for preoperative site preparation using razors or clippers. Exclusions comprised individuals <18 years, bilateral hernias, prior laparoscopic hernia repair, steroid/chemotherapy use, diagnosed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and incomplete medical documentation.

Diagnosis of systemic sarcoidosis in a patient with bilateral granulomatous pan-uveitis: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease usually presenting with features of hilar lymphadenopathy like persistent cough, dyspnoea, cough, night sweats. However, its first and only manifestation can be ocular symptoms consistent with uveitis.

Case Presentation: The authors present such association in a 53-year-old female who had ocular symptoms on and off, designated as uveitis.

Dermatomyositis with positive anti-TIF1 gamma antibodies in an adult female: A case report.

Dermatomyositis is an uncommon autoimmune disease with only few cases reported from Nepal. Presence of anti TIF-1 gamma antibodies in DM are the strongest predictor of malignancy. Timely screening of malignancies for early detection and management remains the mainstay of this report.

Central Venous Catheter-related Thrombosis in a Dialysis Patient: A Case Report.

Unlabelled: Hemodialysis is one of the treatment modalities for advanced kidney disease and can help an individual live an active life despite failing kidneys. Although it improves the quality of life, it is not completely risk-free. It has several complications, among which, thrombus formation is common.

Teenager with acute psychosis due to non-paraneoplastic anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis with a successful recovery: A case report.

Introduction: Anti NMDAR encephalitis is a neuropsychiatric syndromic disease caused by an immunological response. Acute behavioral changes, psychosis, and catatonia are common clinical manifestations, are seizures, amnesia, speech difficulties, dyskinesia, and autonomic dysregulation.

Case Presentation: We discuss the case of a 14-year-old girl who had psychotic symptoms and tested positive for anti-NMDAR antibodies.

Antisynthetase syndrome and interstitial lung disease: A case report.

Introduction: Myositis, Raynaud's phenomenon, fever, interstitial lung disease, mechanic's hands, and arthropathy are symptoms of Antisynthetase Syndrome (ASS), which is defined by the development of antibodies against t-ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthetase, particularly anti-Jo-1.

Case Presentation: The case is about 29 years female with 1 month history of non-productive cough and dyspnea on exertion which was later diagnosed as ASS.

Discussion: The diagnosis of an inflammatory myopathy is based on clinical findings such as subacute development of symmetrical muscle weakness and signs such as laboratory investigations revealing skeletal muscle inflammation.

Endothelium, Platelets, and Coagulation Factors as the Three Vital Components for Diagnosing Bleeding Disorders: A Simplified Perspective with Clinical Relevance.

Bleeding disorders are a major group of hematological disorders, which are highly prevalent in the world. Excessive bleeding can result in serious consequences including hypoperfusion and cardiac arrest. The body has its selfmechanism to control excessive bleeding which is termed hemostasis.

Ataxia due to vitamin E deficiency: A case report and updated review.

Ataxia with vitamin E deficiency (AVED) is a rare cause of hereditary ataxia in developing countries with unknown prevalence. AVED is an autosomal-recessive disorder, which is characterized by ataxia, areflexia, and proprioceptive and vibratory sensory loss. The disease is characterized clinically by symptoms with often resembling to those of Friedreich ataxia (FRDA).

Anxiety and depression among living kidney donors in tertiary care hospital of low resource country setting Nepal.

Introduction: Kidneys accounted for the majority of transplanted organs worldwide in 2018, according to the Global Observatory on Donation and Transplantation. Living kidney donors continue to have negative psychosocial effects after donation. We aimed to assess anxiety and depression among Nepalese living kidney donors.

May Measurement Month 2018: an analysis of blood pressure screening results from Nepal.

Raised blood pressure (BP) is a leading risk factor for mortality globally and in Nepal. May Measurement Month (MMM) is a global initiative aimed at screening for hypertension and raising awareness on high BP worldwide. This study provides the results of the 2018 MMM (MMM18) in Nepal.
