An 87-year-old woman presented with acute chest pain and a violaceous breast lesion with serous discharge. Imaging revealed findings suspicious for Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) and a right-sided implant rupture.
Craniodiaphyseal Dysplasia (CDD) is an exceptionally rare sclerosing bone dysplasia characterized by progressive hyperostosis of craniofacial and tubular bones, leading to severe deformities and cranial nerve compression.
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness characterized by optic nerve degeneration, Retinal Ganglion Cell (RGC) loss, and elevated Intraocular Pressure (IOP). MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small noncoding RNAs that regulate post-transcriptional gene expression, have emerged as key modulators.
Malaria, a major parasitic disease, persists in Morocco exclusively in its imported form. In this non-endemic context, C-Reactive Protein (CRP), a rapid and easily accessible inflammatory marker, is systematically measured in the evaluation of febrile patients.
Encrusted Cystitis (EC) is a rare chronic inflammatory condition of the bladder characterized by calcified encrustations on the mucosa, primarily affecting patients with prior urological abnormalities. We report the case of a 77-year-old female with a history of cervical cancer treated with radio chemotherapy and non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) deficiency is a common but often underdiagnosed condition, particularly among older adults and patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Absorption of dietary cobalamin requires a complex sequence of gastric, pancreatic, and ileal processes.
Cochlear implantation is a safe and standardized procedure for severe to profound hearing loss, but post-operative complications, though rare, can occur. This report describes a 62-year-old patient with bilateral cophosis who developed a Staphylococcus aureus.
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive malignancy of the pleural mesothelium primarily associated with asbestos exposure. Traditional management with chemotherapy and surgery provides limited survival benefits.
Female patient, 52 years old, with a history of rheumatoid arthritis, admitted for hemolytic anemia. From the study carried out: Positive direct Coombs test, leukopenia, hypocomplementemia, ANA 1:160 of fine granular pattern, positive Anti-CCP Ac and Anti-ENA Ac Ro52.
Facial physical barrier injury is a common and challenging condition in dermatology. We report a case of facial physical barrier injury successfully treated with bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel (rb-bFGF), who was caused by excessive cleaning, improper medication, etc. No adverse reactions were observed during the treatment.
A 70-year-old non-smoking woman with a history of pulmonary and vertebral tuberculosis (Pott’s disease) in youth, resulting in thoracic deformity, presented with persistent exertional dyspnea (mMRC grade 2) after recovering from community- acquired pneumonia.
Lung abscess is a severe pulmonary infection usually caused by anaerobic or pyogenic bacteria. Mycoplasma Pneumoniae (MP), a common cause of community-acquired pneumonia, rarely leads to lung abscess, especially in adults.
A 17-year-old male with no prior medical history, presented with recurrent syncopal episodes, the latest preceded by headache, nausea and abdominal pain. On physical examination, his blood pressure was 120/74 mmhg, pulse was 80 bpm.
The aim of the present study was to conduct a quantitative assessment for the optimization of chest radiography acquisition protocols in order to enhance image quality, while minimizing patient radiation exposure.
A 78-year-old woman was referred to the Pulmonology Clinic due to a one-year history of progressive exertional dyspnea, dry cough, and wheezing. Her medical history included pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosed 51 years earlier and Lewy body dementia, with marked functional decline during the previous two years.
To compare the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic Total Extraperitoneal Herniorrhaphy (TEP) and Lichtenstein herniorrhaphy in treatment of unilateral initial inguinal hernia patients.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) deficiency can lead to hematological, neurological, and cognitive complications, particularly in elderly patients and those with malabsorption. While traditional supplementation relies on oral or intramuscular routes, sublingual and intranasal administration have emerged as non-invasive alternatives.
A 22-year-old G4P1031 presented to the emergency department with recurrent episodes of heavy bleeding for five months. Upon presentation patient was had stable vital signs. Past medical history was significant for asthma. She was not taking any medications.
Delayed gastric emptying before anesthesia induction is a concern in patients using Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonists (RAs) and dual Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP)/ GLP-1 receptor agonists.
