High Index Of Suspicion

A 26-year-old Caucasian man with no previous history of chemical injury presenting with an inability to open his right eye was investigated for mucous membrane pemphigoid and treated. Examination was notable for symblepharon of the right eye and impetigo-like lesions on the face and neck. A biopsy with immunohistochemical analysis was significant for linear deposits of C3 and immunoglobulin G at the level of the epithelial basement membrane, confirming the diagnosis of mucous membrane pemphigoid. Although mucous membrane pemphigoid classically presents bilaterally in women in the sixth and seventh decades of life, our patient was a young man with unilateral cicatrising conjunctivitis who may have been easily misdiagnosed without a high index of suspicion. A biopsy is required in cases of cicatrising conjunctivitis so that even atypical cases such as the one presented herein can be appropriately managed.

Abstract For 8 years, EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia was observed in a 55-year-old woman with a history of rheumatoid arthritis who had undergone surgery for lymphoepithelial thymoma 11 years earlier. The clinical picture was characterized by the presence of platelet clumps and antiplatelet antibodies of the IgM class. With the recent appearance of a solitary extramedullary plasmocytoma in the right retrobulbar region and the detection of an IgGλ monoclonal gammopathy, blood examination also revealed erythrocyte agglutinates alongside the platelet clumps and the presence of a cold IgG antibody with anti-l specificity. Both phenomena were observed in vitro when the sample temperature declined to 20°C to 25°C, but not at 37°C. While the EDTA-dependent antiplatelet antibodies did not appear to be chronologically correlated with the patient’s diseases, the cold antierythrocyte autoantibodies were strictly related to the plasmocytoma and the IgGλ monoclonal component in serum. To our knowledge, this is the first description of an association between EDTA-dependent platelet and erythrocyte agglutinates, with a clinical picture of pseudothrombocytopenia and pseudoerythrocytopenia due to cold agglutinins.

Purpose. To describe a patient with Bilateral Diffuse Uveal Proliferation who presented initially with a clinical picture consistent with choroidal melanoma.Methods. Presentation of a clinical case with fundus photos, fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography.Results. A 70-year-old Caucasian male with history of esophageal cancer presented with an asymptomatic pigmented choroidal lesion in his left eye initially diagnosed as choroidal nevus. This lesion enlarged over the course of a year and developed orange pigment and increased thickness. A metastatic workup was negative, and a radioactive iodine plaque was placed on the left eye. Over the next six months, the visual acuity in his left eye decreased. His clinical picture was consistent with unilateral Diffuse Uveal Proliferation. A recurrence of his esophageal carcinoma with metastasis was discovered and palliative chemotherapy was initiated. Although his visual acuity improved in the left eye, similar pigmentary changes developed in the right fundus. His visual acuity in both eyes gradually decreased to 20/200 until his death a year later.Conclusion. BDUMP should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with pigmented fundus lesions and a history of nonocular tumors.

A female patient in her late 40s presented with severe visual impairment and a history of oral ulcers, necrolysis of skin and hospitalisation after using gabapentin for neck pain 10 months ago. She was a diagnosed case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) with chronic ocular sequelae—with total symblepharon and keratinised lid margins in the left eye and limbal stem cell deficiency and severe dryness in the right eye. Her visual acuity was perception of light in both eyes. She underwent left eye symblepharon release with autologous labial mucous membrane grafts (MMGs) for surface reconstruction and subsequent lid margin MMG for lid margin keratinisation. Best-corrected visual acuity improved to 20/25 with scleral lens in the left eye, which was sustained over 1 year of follow-up. Labial mucosa acts as a useful and easily accessible alternative to conjunctiva in eyes with bilateral severe ocular surface damage and total symblepharon secondary to SJS.

Many muscle diseases show common pathological features although their etiology is different. In primary muscle diseases a characteristic finding is myofiber necrosis. The mechanism of myonecrosis is unknown. Polymyositis is a primary muscle disease characterized by acute and subacute degeneration as well as regeneration of muscle fibers coupled with an inflammatory infiltrate. We present a case of polymyositis with unusual ultrastructural features indicative of the basic pathogenetic process involved in myonecrosis.The patient is a 63-year-old white female with a one history of proximal limb weakness, weight loss and fatigue. Examination revealed mild proximal weakness and diminished deep tendon reflexes. Her creatine kinase was 1800 mU/ml (normal < 140 mU/ml) and electromyography was consistent with an inflammatory myopathy which was verified by light microscopy on biopsy muscle. Ultrastructural study of necrotizing myofiber, from the right vastus lateralis, showed: (1) degradation of the Z-lines with preservation of the adjacent Abands including M-lines and H-bands, (Fig. 1), (2) fracture of the sarcomeres at the I-bands with disappearance of the Z-lines, (Fig. 2), (3) fragmented sarcomeres without I-bands, engulfed by invading phagocytes, (Fig. 3, a & b ), and (4) mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltrate in the endomysium.

Popliteal artery thrombosis may present as a complication of an osteochondroma located in the vicinity of the knee joint. This is a case report of a 26-year-old man with symptoms of the right lower extremity ischaemia without a previous history of vascular disease or trauma. Plain radiography, magnetic resonance angiography and Doppler ultrasonography documented the presence of an osteochondrous structure of the proximal tibial metaphysis, which displaced and compressed the popliteal artery, causing its occlusion due to intraluminal thrombosis..The patient was operated and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of osteochondroma.

The challenges of including factual information in public policy and political discussions are many. The difficulties of including scientific facts in these debates can often be frustrating for scientists, politicians and policymakers alike. At times it seems that discussions involve different languages or dialects such that it becomes a challenge to even understand one another’s position. Oftentimes difference of opinion leads to laws and regulations that are tilted to the left or the right. The collaborative balancing to insure public and natural resource interests are protected ends up being accomplished through extensive litigation in the courts. In this article, the author discusses the history of environmental balancing during the past three decades from the perspective of a field biologist who has used the strength of our policies, laws and regulations to fight for the protection of our Commonwealth’s aquatic resources. For the past 7 years, the author has taken over the reins of “the most powerful environmental agency in Pennsylvania” and charted a course using science to properly represent natural resource interests in public policy and political deliberations.

SummaryA 5-month-old, 13.5 kg, female Corriedale sheep was referred to the Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital, with a history of traumatic injury of the cervical spine followed by non-ambulatoric tetraparesis that occurred 2 weeks before being admitted to the hospital. At admission, malalignment of the cervical spine with the cranial part of the neck deviating to the right was noted. Neurological examinations identified the absence of postural reactions in both forelimbs, mildly decreased spinal reflexes, and normal reaction to pain perception tests. Radiography revealed malalignment of the cervical vertebrae with subluxations at C1–C2 and C2–C3, and a comminuted fracture of the caudal aspect of C2. The sheep was euthanized due to a presumed poor prognosis. Necropsy and histopathological findings confirmed injuries of the cervical spine from C1 to C3, which were consistent with the clinical finding of tetraparesis in this case. This paper presents a rare case of multiple subluxations of the cervical spine caused by blunt force trauma in a young sheep. These results highlight the importance of an astute clinical diagnosis for such an acute cervical spine trauma and the need for prompt surgical correction for similar cases in the future.
