Acalculous Cholecystitis as an Atypical Presentation of Viral Pericarditis: A Case Report.
Am J Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Royal Melbourne Hospital, Parkville, Victoria, Australia.
BACKGROUND Acalculous cholecystitis is a rare form of gallbladder inflammation that occurs without the presence of gallstones. It primarily affects critically ill patients and warrants prompt treatment given its association with high mortality. Pericarditis, an inflammation of the pericardium, typically arises from viral infections but can also be secondary to rheumatological, malignant, or bacterial causes.

BMC Pulm Med
January 2025
Division of Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Chungnam National University, Daejeon, 301-721, Republic of Korea.
Background: Behçet's disease (BD) is a multisystem inflammatory disorder that can affect various organs, including the lungs. Pulmonary manifestations are rare and typically present as pulmonary artery aneurysms.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 56-year-old East Asian male with a 27-year history of BD, who had no respiratory symptoms, such as hemoptysis, cough, or fever.
The case of a woman with bilateral Dupuytren's contractures who developed CRPS-1 after fasciectomy with no relapse on subsequent collagenase clostridium histolyticum injection and manipulation of the other hand: Considerations for implementing a Budapest criteria checklist and assessing vasomotor instability by measuring differences in skin temperature.

Saint Joseph, MI, USA. Electronic address:
Background: For patients who experience atypical neurogenic pain thought to be complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after Dupuytren's fasciectomy early recognition has been reported to improve outcomes. Furthermore, given the progressive nature of Dupuytren's, individuals with a history of CRPS have been "at risk" for further surgical intervention.
Purpose: To familiarize therapists with a Budapest criteria (BC) checklist for early diagnosis of CRPS, describe how tracking sudomotor/vasomotor signs alongside differences in skin temperature were used to monitor vasomotor instability and intervention effectiveness for a patient with atypical pain after fasciectomy and to detail management of the same patient with a CRPS history who had collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injection of her other hand without exacerbating CRPS.
A large type IV-A choledochal cyst mimicking hydatid cyst of the liver: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep

Department of Surgery, College of Health Sciences, Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Introduction: Choledochal cysts are rare congenital anomalies of the bile ducts, with adult presentations being uncommon. This case is notable for its atypical presentation in a young adult, mimicking a hydatid cyst in a region where echinococcosis is endemic.
Case Presentation: A 22-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of progressive jaundice, accompanied by 5 months of epigastric and right upper quadrant pain, dark urine, pale stools, pruritus, and significant weight loss.
A rare presentation of primary lung adenocarcinoma mimicking bilateral interstitial infiltration: A case report and literature review.
Int J Surg Case Rep
January 2025
College of Medicine, Hebron, Palestine.
Background: Primary lung adenocarcinoma can sometimes present atypically, mimicking interstitial lung disease (ILD), and posing significant diagnostic challenges. Such presentations often lead to misdiagnoses, delaying appropriate treatment.
Case Presentation: A 35-year-old female non-smoker presented with a six-month history of progressive cough, mild hemoptysis, fatigue, and exertional dyspnea, with no associated weight loss.
