P07.03: The illusion of safety in type 1 selective IUGR in monochorionic twins: are we monitoring the right baby with the right tools? Case report

This case report describes a 46-year-old female with a history of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome status post-parathyroidectomy, thymectomy via robotic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, and pituitary adenoma resection presenting with parasympathetic hyperactivity and Parry–Romberg syndrome. Parry–Romberg syndrome is a rare disorder that manifests as facial hemiatrophy. Reported symptoms include cognitive dysfunction, olfactory hallucinations, and parasympathetic hyperactivity: miosis of the right eye, anhidrosis, diarrhea, urinary incontinence, bowel incontinence, and orthostatic hypotension. Previous reports have noted associations between Parry–Romberg syndrome and sympathetic hyperactivity and dysregulation. This case report focuses on an association between Parry–Romberg syndrome and unopposed parasympathetic activity.

Spheno-orbital dysplasia is almost pathognomic for Neurofibromatosis type 1. Thereis proptosis and deviation of the eye ball medially. We present a case of a young girlwith neurofibromatosis type 1, who had pulsating exophthalmos of the right eye withdiplopia and severe dysplasia of the sphenoid boneand consecutive herniation of theright temporal lobe. She presented with pulsatile proptosis and deviation of the righteye ball to the right. Her x-ray skull showed widening of the orbit. Her MRI scanshowed an arachnoid cyst behind her right eye ball. We had operated on her andreconstructed the right sphenoid greater wing with titanium mesh and duroplastywith G-patch. This had improved her proptosis and deviation of the eye ball. Bang.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the formation of benign nerve sheath tumours known as neurofibromas. A 28-year-old female presented with a large neurofibroma extending from the elbow of the right arm into the axilla and across the right breast. A mastectomy was performed to excise 4 kg of tissue with an immediate flap reconstruction. Post-operatively, the patient’s hemoglobin levels dropped significantly due to excessive blood loss, but the patient was discharged by post-operative day 5 with no additional complications. This study raises awareness for NF1, describes possible complications that may arise following excision of highly vascularized neurofibromas, and outlines possible techniques for breast reconstruction.

Popliteal artery thrombosis may present as a complication of an osteochondroma located in the vicinity of the knee joint. This is a case report of a 26-year-old man with symptoms of the right lower extremity ischaemia without a previous history of vascular disease or trauma. Plain radiography, magnetic resonance angiography and Doppler ultrasonography documented the presence of an osteochondrous structure of the proximal tibial metaphysis, which displaced and compressed the popliteal artery, causing its occlusion due to intraluminal thrombosis..The patient was operated and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of osteochondroma.
