Compact Arterial Monitoring Device Use in Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA): A Simple Validation Study in Swine.
Cureus
October 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.
Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease.

Department of Medicine, Lokamanya Tilak Municipal Medical College, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
Article Synopsis
- An elderly man experienced six months of fever, chills, weight loss, bilateral swelling, and non-tender lymph nodes, combined with findings of anemia and elevated inflammatory markers.
- Ultrasound and fine-needle aspiration revealed enlarged necrotic lymph nodes and no signs of tuberculosis, leading to further biopsies.
- The final diagnosis indicated plasma cell variant of multicentric Castleman disease, confirmed through histopathology after the patient underwent a bilateral orchidectomy due to concerns about testicular cancer.
Metastatic Axillary Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma in an African-American Female: A Rare Case.
Cureus
September 2024
Pulmonary and Critical Care, Boca Raton Regional Hospital, Boca Raton, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is usually found in older White males, typically in sun-exposed regions, but this case involves a 46-year-old obese African-American woman with a rare presentation.
- After unsuccessful treatments for a recurring abscess, biopsies revealed poorly differentiated cSCC that metastasized to her lungs and adrenal glands, challenging common perceptions of the disease.
- This case emphasizes the need for healthcare providers to consider cSCC in unusual demographic groups or atypical presentations, particularly in cases of persistent abscesses, to enable early diagnosis and better outcomes.
