48,XXYY syndrome presenting with long-term infertility and newly observed neck deformities: a case report.

Background: Long-term infertility can be attributed to many factors, with the genetic factor being the most overlooked due to its many nonspecific morphological or endocrine signs. We present a rare case of a patient with progressive testicular failure associated with 48,XXYY syndrome.

Case Presentation: A 39-year-old Arab man presented to our fertility clinic for fertility treatment.

Endovascular treatment of coronary subclavian steal syndrome complicated with STEMI and VF: A case report and review of the literature.

Endovascular treatment of coronary subclavian steal syndrome is usually successful and safe. However, it might be lethally complicated, such as our case of STEMI and ventricular fibrillation during stent deployment. Early diagnosis of subclavian stenosis, intermittent dilations of balloons during stent deployment, and choosing the accurate stent size are suggested to avoid such complications.

Reversible dilated cardiomyopathy as a complication of adrenal cortex insufficiency: a case report.

Background: Cardiovascular manifestations associated with Addison's disease are previously documented. We described a case of an 11-year-old girl who developed dilated cardiomyopathy as a complication to Addison's disease. Glucocorticoid replacement therapy resulted in near-complete recovery of cardiac function.

Incidence of adrenal gland tumor as a second primary malignancy: SEER-based study.

Purpose: Advances in cancer treatment achieved during the past decades have resulted in increased survival of most pediatric and adult patients that suffered from different adrenal tumor types. This article reviews the incidence and survival of adrenal gland tumors as second primary tumors, according to data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.

Method: The SEER 13 Registries Database from 1992 to 2013 was used.

Mixed corticomedullary adrenal carcinoma - case report: Comparison in features, treatment and prognosis with the other two reported cases.

Novel Anticoagulants in Atrial Fibrillation: Monitoring, Reversal and Perioperative Management.

Atrial fibrillation continues to be a significant source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Effective anticoagulation remains the cornerstone of outpatient and inpatient treatment. The use of the new generation of anticoagulants (NOACs) continues to grow.

Next-generation airbags and the possibility of negative outcomes due to thoracic injury.

Airbags have been shown to decrease morbidity and mortality associated with motor vehicle accidents when used in conjunction with seat belts. Airbag deployment alone however, has recently been implicated as a cause of significant thoracic injuries to unrestrained drivers. Resulting injuries include major cardiovascular and pulmonary complications.
