[MICROSCOPIC POLYANGIITIS WITH VARIABLE PRESENTATION].

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis is a group of rare diseases of systemic necrotizing vasculitis affecting small and medium-sized vessels and may be associated with the presence of anti- neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody. Vessels in different organs and systems are involved, leading to various clinical manifestations of the disease. We present 3 cases of microscopic polyangiitis which have been diagnosed and treated in one medical department for over 4 years.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome case report in an untreated, normotensive, ovarian cancer patient in the presence of paraneoplastic antibodies.

Background: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare neurological condition with many associated risk factors. The presentation varies and consists of seizures, impaired visual acuity or visual field deficits, disorders of consciousness, headaches, confusion and focal neurological deficits. The diagnosis relies on clinical presentation and MRI findings.

Electrical stimulation of the posterior tibial nerve reduces neuropathic pain in patients with polyneuropathy.

Peripheral neuropathic pain (PNP) is caused by neuronal damage to the peripheral nervous system and usually affects the distal extremities. This open-label study examined the effect of short-term peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) on individuals with PNP due to polyneuropathy. A total of 12 patients (mean age, 63.

Surgical resection of left atrial myxoma presenting with acute multiple hemorrhagic cerebral infarctions: a case report.

Brain ischemia resulting from left atrial myxoma embolization has been well documented. In contrast, the link between the development of intracerebral hemorrhage and myxoma in these patients has little coverage in the literature. The main theory describing this relationship stems from the fact that cardiac myxoma cells metastasize to the brain's vessels, causing destruction of the arterial wall with subsequent formation of fusiform aneurysm and further intracranial bleeding.
