The differential diagnosis of "empty" Turkish saddle syndrome and other pathologic changes of hypophysis is described and as well as the problems of conservative and operative treatment of the syndrome are presented. The patients own observation with "empty" Turkish saddle syndrome confirming the necessity of prolactin level investigation in the dynamics in the presence of the treatment to exclude the given pathology is performed.

Abstract In order to enhance the reliability of the application to clinical practice of the TLICS classification, we retrospectively reviewed the patients with thoracolumbar spine injuries who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and analyzed the validity of the TLICS classification and the necessity of MRI. We enrolled 328 patients with thoracolumbar spine injury who underwent MRI. All patients were classified into conservative and operative treatment groups. The TLICS score of each group was analyzed and the degree of consistent with the recommended treatment through the TLICS classification was examined. Of the total 328 patients, 138 patients were treated conservatively and 190 patients were treated by surgery. Of the 138 patients who underwent conservative treatment, 131 patients (94.9%) had a TLICS score of 4 points or less, and matched with the recommendation score for conservative treatment according to the TLICS classification (match rate 94.9%, 131/138). Of the 190 patients who underwent operative treatment, 160 patients (84.2%) had a TLICS score of 4 points or more (match rate 84.2%, 160/190). All of 30 mismatched patients with a TLICS score of 3 points or less (15.8%) had stable burst fracture without neurological deficit. We retrospectively reviewed the validity of the TLICS classification for the injuries of the thoracolumbar spine, based on MRI in a large group of patients. Treatment with TLICS classification showed high validity, especially in conservative group, and MRI should be an essential diagnostic tool for accurate evaluation of posterior ligamentous complex injury.

The Given

ABSTRACT Lyme disease, an infectious multisystemic disease is caused by "Borrelia burgdorferi". It is a spirochete transmitted by the Ixodes tick. Until today, only one case has been reported from Nepal. Here we report case of a 50-year female from Gulmi, who presented with a history of fever, multiple joint pain, tiredness, tingling sensation, and a painful brownish raised lesion over the neck and anterior chest. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by histological findings typical of erythema chronicum migrans and by serology. The patient was treated successfully with doxycycline. This is the second case report of Lyme disease from Nepal and the first documented case who presented with typical erythema chronicum migrans. We suspect that Lyme disease might not have been considered in the differential diagnosis of fever with rash and joint pain in Nepal and suggest that it is to be kept as a differential in the given scenario.

Ray Methods

For the purpose of increasing informativity of X- ray methods in using them in the diagnosis of large intestine diseases including the differential diagnosis of nonspecific ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease 27 patients with the given diseases were examined using a modified method-computer tomography with intraenteric contrasting. The computer-tomographic sighus characteristic for colitis and Crohn dicease are established.
