[Large intracardiac mass revealed by cerebrovascular accident: a case report].
Pan Afr Med J
December 2024
Service de Cardiologie Hémodynamique, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Martinique, Fort de France, Martinique.
Article Synopsis
- Intracardiac masses, like myxomas, can sometimes be identified following a stroke, but distinguishing them through echocardiography can be challenging.
- A case study involved a 58-year-old man with various health issues who suffered an ischemic stroke; his echocardiogram showed a large mass in the left atrium, leading to a diagnosis of myxoma after surgery.
- Myxomas may not show symptoms for a long time and can be linked to embolic complications, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive, team-based management approach.
Necrotising cellulitis occurring after cosmetic blepharoplasty: A case report.
JPRAS Open
December 2024
Centre Hospitalier National des Quinze Vingts, Sorbonne University, 28 rue de Charenton, 75012 Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- A 52-year-old woman developed periorbital necrotizing cellulitis two days after undergoing bilateral cosmetic lower blepharoplasty, leading to complications like ocular hypertension and decreased visual acuity.* -
- Diagnosis was confirmed with MRI, and treatment involved intravenous antibiotics, corticosteroids, and drainage surgery, revealing a pathogen resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics.* -
- This case is notable as it is the first reported instance of necrotizing cellulitis after blepharoplasty caused by a less virulent pathogen, differing from the previous six cases documented in literature.*
Brain Abscesses in Domestic Ruminants: Clinicopathological and Bacteriological Approaches.
Microorganisms
July 2024
Department of Veterinary Clinic, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, São Paulo State University (UNESP), Botucatu 18618-681, SP, Brazil.
Brain abscesses in ruminants often arise from primary infection foci, leading to an unfavorable prognosis for affected animals. This highlights the need for comprehensive studies on brain abscesses across different ruminant species. We retrospectively investigated medical records of epidemiological, clinical, neuroimaging, anatomopathological, and bacteriological findings in six ruminants (three goats, two cows, and one sheep) diagnosed with brain abscesses.

August 2024
IBN El Jazzar Hospital of Kairouan, Department of Urology, University of Sousse, Tunisia.
Introduction And Importance: Bilateral combined fractures of the greater tuberosity with anterior internal shoulder dislocation are extremely rare, presenting challenges in treatment due to their uncommon occurrence and lack of standardized management protocols.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 22-year-old patient who experienced bilateral anterior shoulder dislocations with associated fractures of the greater tuberosities following a seizure-induced fall. Clinical Discussion: The unique aspect of our case is the unusual mechanism of injury.
Misleading subcutaneous mycosis: a case report of subsequent clinical mycetoma-like and histological chromoblastomycosis-like lesions.
Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo
June 2024
Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Ciências Médicas, Departamento de Dermatologia, Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil.
Article Synopsis
- * A rare case is reported involving an immunocompromised patient with two types of fungal infections: mycetoma-like hyalohyphomycosis on the foot from Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis on the forearm from Exophiala oligosperma.
- * The case highlights that certain fungal infections can mimic more common conditions, and muriform cells identified in skin examinations do not exclusively indicate chromoblastomycosis, as seen in this patient's forearm lesion.
