Review Of The Literature

Post-operative haemorrhage is one of the commonest complications of tonsillectomy. We report a case of a 36-year-old lady who presented with three haemorrhagic episodes following tonsillectomy. Although initially treated as secondary tonsillar haemorrhage, the actual cause of the bleeding was later identified to be a duodenal ulcer. The case is presented with a review of the literature.

Seizures are a common presenting complaint in acute medicine and post-ictal patients can pose a diagnostic challenge. Approximately 1% of patients presenting after a seizure will have sustained a fracture. Delayed diagnosis is common and can lead to worse functional outcomes. A case of occult bilateral neck of femur fracture secondary to seizure is presented together with a review of the literature.

Diagnosis And Management

The diagnosis of a lower extremity glomus tumor (GT) is often delayed owing to the lack of awareness and low level of suspicion by the treating physician. GT is thought to arise from cutaneous arteriovenous connections, often involving the nail beds. The unusual location of the lower extremity often leads to missed or delayed diagnosis and management. Surgical excision of GT is often curative and provides significant symptomatic relief. There is a paucity of information in regard to GT in general, especially among vascular surgeons. The aim of this report is to make the surgical community more aware of this disease entity based on the analysis of our own experience and review of the literature.

Life Threatening

Background: Acute epiglottitis was considered a disease of the pediatric population. However, it has constantly been a report of a certain number of adult cases. Death by airway obstruction is caused by delayed diagnosis and untimely invasive airway management contributing to the higher mortality rate in adults. Case presentation: We presented a case of a 24-year-old male patient without significant underlying condition, who presented at our emergency department with a progressive sore throat and high-graded fever for one day. After a set of investigations, the patient was diagnosed with acute epiglottitis, and airway management was managed accordingly. His conditions improved after a course of antibiotic treatment during hospital admission. Conclusion: Acute epiglottitis in adults is not frequently encountered in the emergency department. This case underlines the importance of clinical suspicions in cases with consistent symptoms as well as the excellent utility of lateral neck radiography for the diagnosis of this life-threatening entity.
