Infective Spondylodiscitis of Unknown Origin in a Patient with Chronic Kidney Disease - Case report.

Introduction: Infective spondylodiscitis, resulting from bacterial or fungal infections in intervertebral discs and adjacent vertebral bodies, poses diagnostic dilemmas due to its rare occurrence and subtle symptomatology. This report underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in navigating the complexities of infective spondylodiscitis, particularly in patients with concomitant chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Case Report: A 53-year-old male, 5 years into renal dialysis for CKD, presented with a 3-month history of severe neck pain radiating to both arms, accompanied by tingling sensations.

Does Early Treatment With Teriparatide Prevent the Need for Surgical Intervention in Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures.

Study Design: Retrospective Cohort Study.

Objective: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of early administration of Teriparatide in preventing the necessity of surgical intervention in individuals with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

Methods: In a 24-month follow-up retrospective analysis, 191 OVCF patients from January 2016 to October 2020 were randomly assigned to Non teriparatide Group A (n = 104) or Group B teriparatide (n = 87).

Spinal cord compression from malignant relapsed Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting with neurological symptoms - Case report.

Introduction: Hodgkin's lymphoma has been observed to rarely manifest with extra nodal involvement, typically occurring in the latter stages of the disease. However, spinal cord compression may also be regarded as a rare predominant symptom to occur in this context. In this case report, we discuss the clinical details of a 37-year-old patient who exhibited upper motor neuron symptoms and gait imbalance.

Chloroma - A Rare Case of Metastatic Tumor to Dorsal Spine in Patient of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Causing Acute Paraparesis.

Introduction: Chloromas are defined as metastatic granulocytic solid tumors of myeloid origin occurring at an extramedullary site. In this case report, we present an uncommon case of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) presenting with metastatic sarcoma to the dorsal spine causing acute paraparesis.

Case Report: A 36-year-old male presented in the OPD with complaints of progressive upper back pain and acute paraparesis since a 1 week.

Acute Paraparesis in a Patient after High Velocity Manipulation of Cervical Spine and its Management.

Introduction: In this case report, we question the safety associated with high velocity manipulations of the cervical spine. These procedures do not frequently cause catastrophic adverse effects but few and rare case reports like this make us aware about the possible complications of the maneuvers.

Case Report: This case report presents an uncommon presentation of acute neurodeficit to a 57-year-old male following a neck manipulation by a barber in the saloon which recovered partially with Intravenous steroid therapy but required active intervention surgically to treat his complete symptomatology.

Spectrum of hepatitis B and renal involvement.

Renal involvement in hepatitis B occurs in various spectrums and its knowledge is important for clinicians in management of patients. The renal diseases most commonly associated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection include membranous nephropathy, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and Polyarteritis nodosa. The widespread use of hepatitis B vaccination has decreased the incidence of HBV-related renal diseases.

Gastric Schwannoma: A Benign Tumor Often Misdiagnosed as Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor.

Gastric schwannomas are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from the nerve plexus of gut wall. They present with nonspecific symptoms and are often detected incidentally. Preoperative investigation is not pathognomic and many are therefore misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
