Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a common autoimmune pathology requiring lifelong insulin therapy. We report the case of a 12-year-old girl with T1DM admitted to Department C of the National Institute of Nutrition of Tunis for diabetic ketosis.

Article Synopsis
- Hepatic peliosis is a rare condition in which blood-filled spaces develop in the liver, often going unnoticed until autopsy; a case of a newborn with abdominal distension led to its discovery.
- The newborn, just one day old, was found to have hepatomegaly and multiple blood cavities in the liver, confirmed through imaging and biopsy.
- The only potential risk factor identified was the mother's use of antihistaminic drugs during pregnancy, suggesting a possible but unexplained link to this uncommon condition in neonates.
Introduction: Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 50 kg/m2 is more challenging for the bariatric surgeon, because of a thicker abdominal wall, more visceral fat, and hepatomegaly by liver steatosis. This study aims to give an overview of 5-year outcomes after OAGB and RYGB in these patients in terms of weight loss, remission of comorbidities, and complications.
Methods: This retrospective single-center cohort study focused on patients with BMI ≥ 50 kg/m2 undergoing OAGB or RYGB between 2015 and 2017 at a non-academic teaching hospital in the Netherlands.

Transfusion-dependent thalassemia (TDT) is often accompanied by complications related to iron overload and the development of malignant solid tumors or hematological malignancies. The occurrence of Neuroendocrine carcinoma, specifically in the respiratory tract, is very rare, with a prevalence of approximately 25%. Therefore, this study presented a case of a 42-year-old male with a beta-thalassemia major at 28 years, complaining of shortness of breath.
