Iatrogenic Budd-chiari Syndrome from Misplacement of Right Internal Jugular Central Vein Catheter: A Case Report.

Introduction/background: Budd-Chiari syndrome is a rare entity that is caused by an obstruction of the flow in the hepatic veins or inferior vena cava.

Case Presentation: Herein, we report a rare case of iatrogenic Budd-Chiari syndrome. A 52-year-old woman with chronic renal failure under hemodialysis, presented to our hospital for dyspnea caused by a large pleural effusion.

Catheter-associated vessel perforation presenting as an occluded lumen: lessons learned and preventive strategy.

A central venous catheter (CVC) was placed in the left internal jugular vein of a woman in her late 20s, who was admitted to our intensive care unit during the management of her abdominal wall sepsis. Two days later, the patient had pain at the insertion site. Check aspiration revealed the presence of aspirate from all the lumens except the distal lumen.

A Case Report of Peritoneal Mesothelioma as an Acute Abdomen Mimic: A Rare Presentation and Diagnostic Challenges.

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive cancer often linked to asbestos exposure. This case report presents a 60-year-old man with a history of asbestos exposure who developed MPM, initially presenting with acute abdominal pain, an uncommon mimic of the acute abdomen. Diagnosing MPM is challenging due to its vague symptoms, often leading to delayed diagnosis.

Rare and risky: a unique case of concurrent chronic pulmonary aspergillosis and lemierre syndrome.

Lemierre Syndrome is a condition that appears to have been overlooked in recent decades in clinical practice, often resulting in death or long-lasting sequelae when left undetected and untreated. Typically, it occurs following an upper respiratory tract infection, often stemming from tonsillitis, leading to thrombosis of the internal jugular vein and subsequent multiple septic emboli. Here, we present a case a 46-year-old patient with the clinical presentation of pneumogenic sepsis.

Lemierre's Syndrome Complicated by Venous Stroke due to a Massive Cerebral Venous Thrombus.

Lemierre's syndrome is a rare disease characterized by thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein and metastasis to distant organs. It occurs after an anaerobic infection of the larynx or dental region; the central nervous system involvement is infrequent. A 50-year-old woman presented with impaired consciousness.

Successful placement of a chest wall venous infusion port via persistent left superior vena cava: A case report.

Rationale: Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare congenital venous anomaly occurring in approximately 0.3% to 0.5% of the population.

Pulmonary Embolism Management Audit and Machine Learning Analysis of Delayed Anticoagulation in a Swiss Teaching Hospital.

Diagnosing acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is challenging due to its wide range of symptoms and numerous differential diagnoses. Medical professionals must balance performing all essential examinations and avoiding unnecessary testing. This study aimed to retrospectively audit the diagnosis and treatment of acute PE at a Swiss public teaching hospital to determine the adherence to current guidelines and to identify the factors associated with the delayed initiation of anticoagulation in PE patients.

Revisiting Virchow's triad: exploring the cellular and molecular alterations in cerebral venous congestion.

Background: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare but serious condition that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Virchow's triad elucidates the role of blood hypercoagulability, blood flow dynamics, and endothelial damage in the pathogenesis of CVT. Cerebral venous congestion (CVC) increases the risk of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and can lead to recurrent episodes and residual symptoms.

Vascular variant of Eagle syndrome: a review.

Eagle syndrome is defined as an elongated styloid process (ESP) that compresses nearby vasculo-nervous structures. The vascular variant of Eagle syndrome can lead to neurological symptoms including syncope, transient ischemic attack, or stroke; however, it has also been associated with other atypical presentations, making its diagnosis challenging. This review aimed to depict the characteristics of patients with the symptomatic vascular variant of Eagle syndrome.

[Mid-term efficacy of single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy in the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus].

To evaluate the mid-term efficacy of single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) in the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The cohort of this retrospective observational study comprised 118 obese patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥40 kg/m with or without other related metabolic diseases and BMI of (27.5-40.

Eagle syndrome and vascular complications-a systematic review.

Vascular complications occurring in Eagle syndrome are seldom described. The aim of this study was to systematically review the occurrence, characteristics, and management outcomes of vascular complications occurring in Eagle syndrome. A systematic review was conducted with a search in several databases.

Cerebral venous thrombosis: an unanticipated consequence of unilateral internal jugular vein ligation.

Retrograde cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare complication following internal jugular vein (IJV) ligation. The patient described in this report is a male in his 30s with locally advanced carcinoma tongue. He underwent near-total glossectomy and bilateral neck dissection.

Internal Jugular Vein Thrombosis as the Initial Presentation of Antiphospholipid Antibody-positive Vascular Behçet Disease: A Clinical Image.

Internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition commonly caused by central venous catheter insertion, malignant tumors, and neck infections. A 45-year-old woman with an unremarkable medical history presented with left neck pain. Imaging studies of a suspected mediastinal tumor revealed IJV thrombosis.
