Primary Splenic Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: A Case Report.

Unlabelled: Primary splenic lymphoma (PSL) is a rare disease and an improbable cause of splenomegaly or splenic nodules. On the contrary, splenic secondary involvement as part of an advanced lymphoproliferative disorder is more common. The authors present the case of a 49-year-old woman with a primary splenic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PS-DLBCL), in which the absence of other organs' involvement determined an ultrasound-guided biopsy of the spleen to achieve a definitive diagnosis.

Ascending Aortic Thrombus With Peripheral Embolization.

Thoracic aortic mural thrombi are rare in clinical practice, especially in non-aneurysmatic or non-atherosclerotic vessels. They are typically located in the descending aorta, and less frequently in the aortic arch, abdominal aorta, and ascending aorta. Although they are a rare cause of arterial embolization, this is their main manifestation.

Adynamic ileus and diarrhoea: a rare adverse effect of antidepressants.

Antidepressants can cause a variety of gastrointestinal effects, including nausea, dyspepsia, anorexia, constipation, and, rarely, diarrhoea and adynamic ileus. There is a lack of cases associating antidepressants to adynamic ileus and diarrhoea. We report a case of an elderly woman in whom the use of several antidepressants apparently induced adynamic ileus with diarrhoea.
