Case report: Challenges, treatment, prognosis and outcome of a patient with partially treated seminomatous testicular carcinoma

Hydatid disease is a zoonotic infection caused by larval stages of dog tapeworms belonging to the genus Echinococcus (family taeniidae) and is also referred to as echinococcosis. Human cystic echinococcosis caused byE. granulosusis the most common presentation and probably accounts for more than 95% of the estimated 2-3 million annual worldwide cases. The liver (70–80%) and lungs (15–25%) are the most frequent locations for echinococcal cysts. The diagnosis is made through the combined assessment of clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings. The treatment is mainly surgical, and, with appropriate diagnosis and treatment, prognosis is good. With advances and increasing experience in laparoscopic surgery, many more attempts have been made to offer the advantage of such a procedure to these patients (Chowbey et al. (2003)).

Mesenchymal tumors of the colon and rectum are extremely rare and do not have specific clinical manifestations, their diagnosis and staging cause certain difficulties.Different types of mesenchymal tumors differ in prognosis and choice of the treatment. It explains the importance of differential diagnosis of these neoplasms among themselves and tumors-derivatives of other embryonic structures.The article describes the clinical case of a rare mesenchymal tumor and management of the patient.

Clinical Cases

O cisto do ducto nasopalatino ou também conhecido como cisto do canal incisivo, é um cisto de desenvolvimento não odontogênico que apresenta a maior prevalência descrita na literatura. Sua origem é controversa e geralmente apresenta-se de forma assintomática com aumento de volume na região da linha média anterior do palato. O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar dois casos clínicos de pacientes encaminhados a clínica de Estomatologia da Unigranrio /RJ, onde foram realizados o diagnóstico e em seguinda seu tratamento, onde os pacientes evoluíram sem complicações e / ou recidiva da lesão. Além disso, será realizada a descrição de suas características clínicas e por imagem, etiologia, incidência, tratamento, prognóstico e possíveis diagnósticos diferenciais deste tipo de lesão. Palavras-chave: Cisto do ducto nasopalatino; Cisto do canal incisivo; Cisto não odontogênico.ABSTRACT The nasopalatine duct cyst or also known as incisor canal cyst is a non-odontogenic developmental scientist with a higher prevalence described in the literature. Its origin is controversial and presents asymptomatic with an increase in volume in the region of the anterior midline of the palate. The objective of this study is to report two clinical cases of patients referred to the Stomatology Clinic of Unigranrio / RJ, where they were followed up with their treatment, where the patients evolved without complications and / or recurrence of the lesion. In addition, a description of its clinical characteristics and by imaging, etiology, incidence, treatment, prognosis and possible differential diagnoses of the type of lesion is made.Key words: Nasopalatine duct cyst; Incisive canal cyst; Non-odontogenic cyst.

Treatment Prognosis

A review of the literature on brown recluse spider bite is presented, including clinical presentation and treatment. Emphasis is placed on the treatment of local tissue necrosis. A case report of a severe necrotic ulcer secondary to a spider bit is presented. Tissue necrosis following a brown recluse spider bit can be debilitating, and healing may be prolonged for many months. Even with early treatment, prognosis often is poor. Future studies might help establish better treatment regimens.

Nectrotizing enterocilitis(NEC), a disease predominant in the premature formula fed infants, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in NICU survivors. The symptoms may vary from apnea, fever, lethargy to abdominal distension, bloody stools, poor feeding and vomiting. The mainstay of treatment is the IV feeds, discontinuation of oral feeds, nasogastric (NG) decompression, possible breathing support and surgery. The objective of this case report is to discuss the presentation, treatment, prognosis and proposed preventative measures of NEC, which can help raise awareness and henceforth improve the management and subsequent prognosis of this disease. Authors present to you the case report of a VLBW (Very Low Birth Weight) premature infant with NEC.
