Transverse myelitis (TM), a poorly understood neurological disorder, can manifest in various clinical scenarios. We report a unique case where TM presented in a background of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). The patient, an otherwise healthy female, experienced a rapid onset of symptoms, culminating in complete left-sided hemiparesis and exacerbation of BPPV characteristics.

Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare primary cardiomyopathy with genetic etiology, resulting from an abnormality of myocardial development during embryogenesis. It carries an elevated risk of left ventricular dysfunction, thromboembolic events and malignant arrhythmias. We report the case of LVNC associated with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and ankyrin 2 () mutation at the genetic test.

Drug-induced gingival overgrowth is associated with various systemic diseases, including epilepsy. Among antiepileptic medications, phenytoin is commonly reported to cause this condition. In contrast, sodium valproate (VPA), another widely used antiepileptic drug, rarely induces gingival overgrowth.

Background: Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare complement-driven acquired hemolytic anemia with specific presentations of hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, fatigue, and thrombosis.

Objective: To review the current therapeutic strategies for PNH, including anti-complement therapy and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), focusing on the tailoring of the approach to the disease subtype.

Results: The outcome of alloHCT varies depending on disease severity, thrombotic history, and response to prior therapies.

Background: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by non-caseating granulomas, while arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic condition mainly affecting desmosomal proteins. The coexistence of CS and genetic variants associated with ACM is not well understood, creating challenges in diagnosis and management. This study aimed to describe the clinical, imaging and genetic features of patients with both conditions.
