Management of extensive portal vein thrombosis via thrombolysis and thrombectomy without underlying liver disease: A case report.

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare condition, particularly in non-cirrhotic patients. Anticoagulation remains the mainstay of the treatment. Extensive PVT can lead to variceal bleeding, ascites, bowel ischemia, and hypersplenism.

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis as the first presentation of Graves' disease: A case report.

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is a rare disease seen predominantly in men of Asian origin. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with acute onset of weakness, and it is reversible after the correction of serum potassium. TPP can rarely be the initial presentation of Graves' disease.

A case report of insulinoma presenting with seizures and localized on endoscopic ultrasound.

Insulinomas are rare functioning neuroendocrine (NEN) tumors. Up to 10% of insulinomas are associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia 1 (MEN1). Most of the tumors present with symptomatic hypoglycemia.

Intracranial hemorrhage with concurrent aortic dissection.

Aortic dissection is a rare yet lethal condition that is often missed. Presenting symptoms often include chest pain, abdominal pain, or loss of consciousness. Rarely is it asymptomatic, and the concurring symptoms may draw attention away from the dissection.

Polycythemia Vera With Atrial Fibrillation: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a myeloid stem cell disorder characterized by excess red cell mass. The two major complications of PV are thrombosis and bleeding. Atrial fibrillation is a potentially devastating condition that can complicate the course of PV.

The determination of causality of drug induced liver injury in patients with COVID-19 clinical syndrome.

Background: Drug induced liver injury (DILI) is a rising morbidity amongst patients with COVID-19 clinical syndrome. The updated RUCAM causality assessment scale is validated for use in the general population, but its utility for causality determination in cohorts of patients with COVID-19 and DILI remains uncertain.

Methods: This retrospective study was comprised of COVID-19 patients presenting with suspected DILI to the emergency department of Weill Cornell medicine-affiliated Hamad General Hospital, Doha, Qatar.

Non-diabetic ketoacidosis secondary to primary hyperthyroidism: A case report.

Introduction: There are variable complications of hyperthyroidism, including atrial fibrillation, heart failure, osteoporosis, and thyroid storm. One infrequent complication of hyperthyroidism is non-diabetic ketoacidosis (NDKA). To the best of our knowledge, our case is the third report of NDKA related to thyrotoxicosis.
