Postoperative Focal Lower Extremity Supplementary Motor Area Syndrome: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Acute rheumatic fever is a delayed inflammatory disease that follows streptococcal infection of the throat. Poststreptococcal reactive arthritis is a sterile arthritis associated with antecedent streptococcal infection in patients not fulfilling the Jones criteria for acute rheumatic fever. Poststreptococcal reactive arthritis has been reported to have lower-extremity predominance and, therefore, should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with lower-extremity arthritis. A review of the literature, distinguishing poststreptococcal reactive arthritis from acute rheumatic fever, and treatment options are discussed here. A case report is also presented.

Arterial Insufficiency

Coral reef aorta (CRA) is a rare form of atherosclerosis that affects the paravisceral and pararenal aorta and its branches. Patients typically present with arterial insufficiency of the bowels, kidneys and lower extremities. The current mainstay of treatment is operative, typically involving transaortic endarterectomy. Herein, we describe a 54-year-old woman with incapacitating lower extremity claudication secondary to a paravisceral coral reef atheroma treated successfully with transaortic endarterectomy via a left retroperitoneal approach. In addition, we present a complete review of modern English literature on CRA.

Peripheral Arterial

Abstract Blunt vascular trauma is rare and challenging in management. Trauma victims who are elderly and have medical comorbidities are still uncommon, but their proportion is expected to increase, as life expectancy has been rising worldwide. A case of blunt vascular trauma to the lower extremity in a 70-year-old patient is reported. During the procedure, a contusion of the superficial femoral artery with thrombosis was identified. Besides, the artery was found to be affected by atherosclerosis. Thrombectomy with resection of the artery and end-to-end anastomosis was performed. Good early clinical outcome was achieved. Nonsystematic review of the available literature is also presented.
