Failure To Thrive

Familial hypertriglyceridemia is rare in infancy. Diagnosis in infancy is very difficult and is usually diagnosed when acute pancreatitis sets in. Early diagnosis is important as it can prevent the complications associated with acute pancreatitis and pancreatic necrosis. Here is a case familial hypertriglyceridemia in an infant who presented to us with failure to thrive but was diagnosed early due to presence of highly viscous and milky blood. This holds importance as early treatment can reduce the complications and morbidity associated with familial hypertriglyceridemia.

A 64-year-old lady noticed weakness of her thumb within two weeks of having developed “shingles” causing vesicular lesions on her arm and hand. Clinical and neurophysiological testing confirmed a lesion of the anterior interosseous nerve. Although motor involvement after herpes zoster infection is recognised, this usually has a myotomal distribution; isolated involvement of a branch of a peripheral motor nerve has not previously been described.

Abstract Introduction We report a case of COVID-19 with Legionella co-infection that was treated successfully. Case report A 73-year-old man presented to the hospital with symptoms of fatigue that continued for the next 5 days. The patient was receiving docetaxel and prednisolone chemotherapy for prostate cancer. Laboratory findings on admission showed positive urine Legionella antigen test and SARS-CoV-2 test. He was administered antiviral and antibacterial agents, and a corticosteroid. Pneumonia exacerbated on day 2 of hospitalization. The patient underwent tracheal intubation and began receiving multidisciplinary care. On day 8 of hospitalization, his oxygenation improved, and the patient was extubated. He discharged on day 27 of hospitalization. Conclusions The patient had a favorable outcome with early diagnosis and early treatment of both diseases. Patients with severe COVID-19 disease need to be evaluated for co-infection. Further, early diagnosis and early treatment of the microbial bacteria causing the co-infection are important.

To the best of our knowledge, there are no previous reports on anterior interosseous nerve palsy (AINP) caused by a soft tissue tumor after fracture of the distal radius. We treated a case of giant forearm lipoma that caused AINP one day after internal fixation of a distal radius fracture.

Rule Out

IIIrd Cranial nerve palsy, known as oculomotor nerve palsy, may result from various causes,however, the etiology remains unknown in some instances. This case report aims to present theauthors' experience with a case of IIIrd cranial nerve palsy, together with a review of the literature.Many etiologies have been associated with isolated oculomotor nerve palsies. We report the case ofa patient who presented with right maxillary and ethmoidal sinusitis with IIIrd cranial nerve palsyassociated with mucormycosis. Careful examinations to rule out other causes must be done and thentreatment with antifungals should be considered after early diagnosis.
