Multiple intracerebral hemorrhagic lesions complicating minimal cranioencephalic trauma in a child with severe hemophilia A, trisomy 21 and sickle cell trait carrier: a case report
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a life-threatening complication in hemophilia. It often occurs during childhood after minimal head trauma. It poses a problem of diagnostic and therapeutic management, especially in Africa where CFCs are not always available.
Hypovolemic Shock Following Subgaleal Hemorrhage with Associated Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy in a Term Infant
We are reporting an infant who was born by emergency cesarean section following failed vaginal delivery. This infant was noted to be in hypovolemic shock soon after birth. He developed large subgaleal hemorrhage within 6 hours after birth with associated diffuse intravascular coagulopathy and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. He required multiple transfusions of packed red blood cell, platelets transfusion, fresh frozen plasma transfusions, and a cryoprecipitate. The infant was on body cooling therapy for hypoxic ischemic
encephalopathy for three days. His neurological exam at the time of discharge was unremarkable. At the time of discharge, an infant is enrolled in an early intervention program with a multi-disciplinary follow-up scheduled.
Rebleeding In Central Nervous System after Use of Rivaroxaban for Treatment of Deep Venous Thrombosis in a Patient with Cerebral Vasculitis
Introduction: Rivaroxaban is a direct, specific inhibitor of Factor Xa, which targets Factor Xa and Factor Xa free and coagulated in the prothrombinase complex.
Objective: To report a case of CNS rebleeding after using Rivaroxaban for treatment of DVT
Double Stroke and Double Malignancy: A Case Report
Stroke associated with malignancy is rapidly increasing. Lesion types mainly resemble cardio embolic multiple ischemic lesions. We present a rare stroke patient with both ischemic and hemorrhagic lesions simultaneously. The etiology of stroke was found to be due to lung cancer and essential thrombocytosis. Differential diagnosis in this case can help for further investigation of strokes with malignancy.
Schwannoma Palate in Children: Rare Case
Schwannoma is a benign tumor that originates from the presence of Schwann cells of the peripheral nerves. They are usually asymptomatic, do not recur, and malignant transformation is rare.
Sacrococcygeal Teratoma in a Developing Community
An epidemiologic data pool was formed from cases of SCT submitted as surgical specimens to a Reference Pathology Laboratory serving the Igbo Ethnic Group in South-Eastern Nigeria.
Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma Accompanying Hemorrhage in the Pleural Cavity
Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a type of soft tissue tumor that frequently occurs in the limbs, trunk, retroperitoneum, etc. We herein report a case of MFH occurring in the thoracic wall, which was accompanied by hemorrhage in the pleural cavity. A 79-year-old male transferred to our hospital for a detailed examination of a chest wall tumor in his right back. The tumor was diagnosed as pleomorphic malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) by an incisional biopsy.
Optic Nerve Cavernous Haemangioma as a Rare Cause of Retro-Orbital Pain mimicking Intracranial Aneurysm.
Cavernous haemangiomas of the optic nerve, optic chiasm or optic tract are rare. Usually they present with acute onset of symptoms such as acute decline of visual acuity, headaches, nausea or even decline of the level of consciousness which suggests haemorrhage in or even out of the lesion. Otherwise, they have an insidious clinical pattern with subacute or chronic visual disturbance, diplopia and retro- orbital pain.
Wake-up Strokes Are Similar to Known-Onset Morning Strokes in Severity and Outcome
Stroke symptoms noticed upon waking, wake-up stroke, account for up to a quarter of all acute ischemic strokes. Patients with wake-up stroke, however, are often excluded from thrombolytic therapy.
Procalcitonin versus C-Reactive Protein in Neonatal Sepsis
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common serious bacterial infection in febrile children younger than 3 months, with reported rates ranging from 5% to 20% depending on different series. Neonates and infants up to age 2 months who have pyelonephritis usually do not have symptoms localized to the urinary tract.
