Pheochromocytoma is often diagnosed prior to pregnancy. Sometimes, the disease may be diagnosed for the first-time during pregnancy masking itself as a hypertensive disease in pregnancy. Early diagnosis and timely, appropriate management reduce possible maternal and fetal complications. We identified a case of pheochromocytoma during pregnancy misdiagnosed as preeclampsia.

Erlotinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is currently used in the therapy of several solid malignancies. This agent has been associated with several dermatological side-effects, the most common being papulo-pustular acneiform rash. Herein we describe a unique skin effect in a patient treated with erlotinib for non-small cell lung cancer.

Loss of metabolic flexibility of cardiomyocytes is one of the major causes of heart failure. Although Catestatin (CST) treatment is known to be both hypotensive and cardioprotective, its effect on cardiac metabolism is unknown.

Expansion of home hemodialysis (HHD) provides an opportunity to improve clinical outcomes, reduce cost of care, and address the staffing challenges currently faced in caring for patients with kidney failure on replacement therapy. To increase HHD expansion, current practices and barriers to home dialysis must be examined and addressed. One such barrier is vascular access for HHD; although tunneled hemodialysis central venous catheters (CVCs) have been used for decades, physicians still hesitate to send patients home without a mature, functional arteriovenous access.

Objective: The goal of a decompressive craniectomy (DC) or a hinge craniotomy (HC), is to treat intracranial hypertension and reduce mortality. Traditionally, the decompression procedure has been performed with cranial bone removal. However, decompression and repositioning the cranial bone, named HC, has been presented as an alternative for certain cases.

Objective: This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed to compare the short-, mid-, and long-term outcomes in patients with malignant intracranial hypertension undergoing either decompressive craniectomy (DC) or hinge craniotomy (HC).
Methods: In this prospective RCT, 38 patients diagnosed with malignant intracranial hypertension due to ischemic infarction, traumatic brain injury, or non-lesional spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, who required cranial decompression, were randomly allocated to the DC and HC groups.
Results: The need for reoperation, particularly cranioplasty, in the DC group was significantly different from that in the HC group.
