Liver Transplantation for Dengue-induced Acute Liver Failure.

Although liver involvement has been observed in over two-third cases of dengue viral infection, less than 1% cases progress to dengue-related acute liver failure (D-ALF). Various aspects of management of this disease remain debated including the need and timing of liver transplantation (LT). Moreover, the outcomes of LT for D-ALF have been suboptimal.

Role of Combined CT Pulmonary Angiography and Indirect CT Venography in Diagnosing Venous Thromboembolism in COVID-19 Patients - Experience From an Indian Quaternary Centre.

Objectives: To study the role of combined CTPA and indirect CT venogram to diagnose venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and to compare the clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters, CT findings and clinical outcomes between the VTE positive and negative groups.

Methods: In this retrospective study, 131 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who underwent CTPA and venogram between August 2020 and January 2021 were included. Relevant demographical, clinical and laboratory data and CT images were collected.

Fatal aspergillosis of the renal vasculature in a combined liver-kidney transplant recipient.

Invasive aspergillosis remains a problem in solid organs and haematopoietic stem cell transplants. We report a case of 12-year-old female with primary hyperoxaluria with regular haemodialysis for the end-stage renal disease. She underwent a combined liver and renal transplantation which got infected by aspergillosis.
