A Case of Cryoglobulinemia With Central Nervous System Involvement.

Cryoglobulinemia may result in small-to-medium vessel vasculitis. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is rare, and presentation may range from stroke/transient ischemic attack, reversible ischemic neurological deficits, to encephalopathic syndromes. This is a rare case discussing cryoglobulinemia with CNS involvement.

Post-COVID-19 Vaccine Thromboembolic Complication in the Setting of Newly Diagnosed May-Thurner Syndrome.

May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) can lead to deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the left lower extremity, and it is often triggered by factors such as surgery or pregnancy. We present a rare case where the risk factor for thromboembolism in MTS is a complication from COVID-19 vaccination. A 44-year-old female who presented with fatigue, fever, and myalgia had developed thromboembolism as a complication of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.

Case report: Enfortumab vedotin induced refractory DKA and multi organ failure - a rare fatal adverse event.

There are very few therapeutic options to treat patients with locally advanced or metastatic Urothelial Cancer (UC). Enfortumab vedotin (EV) was recently approved by the FDA and has become a new therapeutic option for patients previously managed with conventional treatments. Despite its efficacy, EV carries the potential for infrequent yet severe adverse effects.

Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia Presenting As Gastrointestinal (GI) Symptoms.

Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) are among the most common cardiac rhythms seen among patients. Patients presenting with frequent, sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) pose a dilemma for clinicians due to the constant risk of sudden cardiovascular compromise. Ventricular tachycardia, which is commonly seen in patients with defects in cardiac anatomy, has been associated with an increased risk of sudden death.

Linear IgA Bullous Dermatosis Attributable to the Use of Spironolactone: A Case Report.

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is a rare, idiopathic, or drug-induced vesiculobullous disease caused by IgA autoantibodies in the basement membrane zone. An 84-year-old man was started on spironolactone two weeks before presentation for the management of hypertension and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. He presented to our hospital for evaluation of worsening lower extremity swelling and a painful pruritic rash that started on the day preceding his presentation.

Plasmapheresis vs Conventional Insulin Therapy in Hypertriglyceridemia-Induced Acute Pancreatitis.

Hypertriglyceridemia is a rare yet firm etiology of pancreatitis, with an incidence of 2-4% in the general population. The etiology of hypertriglyceridemia itself consists of both primary and secondary causes. We discuss the case of a 37-year-old female with a strong family history of hypertriglyceridemia (primary cause) along with daily alcohol consumption (secondary cause) who initially presented to the emergency department with tingling and numbness of her bilateral upper extremities, bilateral lower extremity cramping and spasm and pins, and needles sensation in all extremities.
