Department of Gastroenterology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
An 83-year-old male presented to our Digestive System Department with a 5-day history of severe gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding and a 14-year history of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) with low platelet levels. Colonoscopy revealed extensive telangiectasias throughout the colon, particularly in the transverse and ascending segments. Standard treatment with proton-pump inhibitors and somatostatin proved ineffective.

Cureus
December 2024
Internal Medicine, Unidade Local De Saúde De São João, Porto, PRT.
Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is marked by eosinophilic infiltration and the release of inflammatory mediators that cause damage to multiple organs. Despite careful evaluation of hypereosinophilia, the etiology of most cases remains undefined. Eosinophils may cause damage in almost all organs, and most patients present with dermatological manifestations.

Anident Veterinary Clinic, Kirkkonummi, Finland.
Radiopaque lesions of the mandible are occasional findings in dental radiographs in dogs. The different diagnoses of densely sclerotic lesions in humans include odontoma, idiopathic osteosclerosis, condensing osteitis, hypercementosis, osteoma, osteoblastoma, and oral exostosis. Publications on many of these conditions in dogs are scarce.

An 18-year-old female patient presented with a 1-month history of low back pain, which had worsened and was accompanied by radiating pain in the right lower limb for half a month. She was admitted to our hospital with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings suggesting calcification of the L3/4 disc and a large intraspinal mass at the L2-4 level. The patient's symptoms did not improve with conservative treatment, and her muscle strength rapidly declined.

J Pediatr Orthop
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery, Robert Debré University Hospital, Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP).
Background: Lower instrumented vertebra (LIV) selection for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with structural lumbar curves (Lenke 3, 5, and 6) remains debated. The iliolumbar angle (ILA) measurement is useful for assessing the lumbosacral junction flexibility. If it is nonreducible, surgeons need to make a difficult choice between a potential "imperfect" L4, associated with a residual lumbosacral curve, or a more distal fusion performed later in life due to poorer functional outcomes.
