Abstract A 29-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with the acute onset of palpitations, shortness of breath, and haemoptysis. She reported having an abortion (56 days of pregnancy) 1 week before admission because of hyperthyroidism diagnosis during pregnancy. The first diagnoses considered were cardiomyopathy associated with hyperthyroidism, acute left ventricular failure, and hyperthyroidism crisis. The young woman’s cardiocirculatory system collapsed within several hours. Hence, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) was performed for this patient. Over the next 3 days after ECMO was established, repeat transthoracic echocardiography showed gradual improvements in biventricular function, and later the patient recovered almost completely. The patient’s blood pressure increased to 230/130 mm Hg when the ECMO catheter was removed, and then the diagnosis of phaeochromocytoma was suspected. Computed tomography showed a left suprarenal tumour. The tumour size was 5.8 cm × 5.7 cm with central necrosis. The vanillylmandelic acid concentration was 63.15 mg/24 h. Post-operation, pathology confirmed phaeochromocytoma. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of a patient with cardiogenic shock induced by phaeochromocytoma crisis mimicking hyperthyroidism which was successfully resuscitated by VA ECMO.

Ovarian torsion after hysterectomy is a rare event. The diagnosis of ovarian torsion is challenging because symptoms are nonspecific. We present a case of ovarian torsion 2 years after laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH). Furthermore, we performed a literature review about ovarian torsion after hysterectomy. This case shows that, in cases of acute onset pelvic pain in patients with history of hysterectomy, the adnexal torsion must be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis, especially in those women who had undergone LH.

A wild-captive male Jenkins' whipray was found dead in a quarantine tank with a clinical sign before death in the form of decreased appetite for a week. The treatment history was oral administration of enrofloxacin antibiotic tablets. The therapy period lasts for ten days. The last treatment was the administration of Hepavit® (liver extract) and intramuscular injection of enrofloxacin antibiotic. One day before the death, blood was collected and then examined for the hematocrit and some parameters of chemical blood. The results of blood examination were found a decrease in blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, increased glucose level, decreased total protein and albumin levels, and increased globulin level. Anatomical pathology examination was found lesions on the tail, around the eyes, and claspers. Hemorrhagic lesions were found in the mucous layer of the esophagus, stomach, and spiral colon. The blood clot was found under the tunica layer of testicular organs. The liver is damaged by showing a non-homogeneous coloration, organ thickening, congestion, and fragile consistency. Based on the results of the blood examination and was supported by the results of the anatomical pathology examination after death, it is suspected that the fish died due to the condition of septicemia infection during the previous few weeks.
