AI Article Synopsis

  • * A case study describes a 49-year-old woman experiencing recurrent urinary tract infections, pain, and discomfort, prompting medical evaluation.
  • * Diagnostic methods included ultrasound and urethrocystoscopy, which identified a 5mm polyp that was removed; histology confirmed bladder müllerianosis along with glandular and cystic cystitis.

Article Abstract

Bladder müllerianosis is defined by the presence of Müllerian epithelium (endometrial, endocervical or endosalpinx) in the bladder. It is a rare benign disease that affects women and presents a non-specific clinical presentation that poses a broad differential diagnosis. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with recurrent urinary tract infections, urinary discomfort and abdominal pain. The approach is carried out by ultrasound and urethrocystoscopy that reveal the presence of a 5mm polypoid lesion that is removed. The histological study revealed bladder müllerianosis together with the complementary finding of glandular cystitis and cystic cystitis.

Tandem occlusion due to acute cervical carotid artery dissection should be promptly treated with thrombectomy for reperfusion. If the cervical lesion has reached severe stenosis or complete occlusion, balloon angioplasty and, in certain cases, carotid artery stenting should be performed before thrombectomy for the intracranial lesion. Angioplasty or stent placement is performed in the true lumen, but securing the placement is challenging when the true lumen cannot be determined.

Article Synopsis
  • Pineal cysts are benign growths in the pineal gland often found accidentally during MRIs, usually causing no symptoms but can lead to neurological issues if they grow.
  • The exact causes of these cysts are unclear, but factors like inflammation from conditions like fibromyalgia and mechanical stress may contribute, along with potential links to long-term lithium use in psychiatric treatment.
  • A case study of a 49-year-old woman with bipolar disorder on lithium highlighted possible connections between cyst formation, systemic inflammation, and psychiatric conditions, indicating the need for more research on these interactions.
