Decrease Blood Loss

Vasopressin has long been used in myomectomy to decrease blood loss. Its efficacy is beyond doubt. But at the same time it is known to cause some of the serious cardiovascular side effects. We here report a case of severe bradycardia and impending cardiac arrest caused by intra-myometrial infiltration of 12 U of vasopressin and present a review of literature.

IntroductionAntipsychotic drugs effectively control psychotic symptoms, but may cause important side effects, significantly increasing morbidity and mortality. Hematologic abnormalities are frequent and may be life-threatening in some patients. Many prospective investigations confirmed neutropenia as a frequent occurrence with virtually all atypical antipsychotics.Objective and methodsDefine epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic characteristics of antipsychotics – induced leukopenia and neutropenia through a case report and a review of literature.Case reportPatient 28 years old native of Tunis, with family history: brother who suffer of undifferentiated schizophrenia. Since the age of 16 years he has been followed for disorganized schizophrenia (DSM IV). He was initially put under Haldol Decanoate (2 months), fluphenazine (2 months), amisulpride (3 months), sulpride (2 months), olanzapine (3 months), Rispreridone (1 month), aripiprazole (5 months) leukopenia/neutropenia is occurring during treatment with each molecule and which promptly resolved after discontinuation. Reduced white blood cell count has also been reported after addition of lithium. Actually an ECT is proposed for this patient.ConclusionThis case report shows the importance of hematological monitoring during the course of typical or atypical treatment.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Clozapine is the drug of choice for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. However, the use of clozapine is limited by its serious adverse effects, which often underlie its discontinuation. The cardiovascular side effects that raise safety concerns include tachycardia, myocarditis and cardiomyopathy. The development of clozapine-induced tachycardia is usually observed on higher dosage especially at early stages of treatment. Here, author presented the case of a patient with treatment-resistant schizophrenia who developed asymptotic supraventricular tachycardia despite low dose of clozapine at the second day of treatment. Additionally, author explored the possibility of clozapine re-challenge in combination with verapamil treatment.

Objective: Our aim is comparison of hemodynamic status and complications between two different doses of intramyometrial vasopressin during laparoscopic myomectomy. Methods: We did a retrospective analysis of hemodynamic status and its anesthetic concerns in patients who received two different doses of intramyometrial vasopressin. Eighty patients undergoing laparoscopic myomectomy under general anesthesia were divided into two groups of 40 patients in each group. In Group A (n=40), 10 units of intramyometrial vasopressin in 200 ml of normal saline were given and, in Group B, 20 units of intramyometrial vasopressin in 200 ml of NS were given intraoperatively by surgeon. Results: 20 units intramyometrial vasopressin used dogmatically by surgeons drops blood loss but it is connected with cardiovascular impediments. Hence, 10 units of intramyometrial vasopressin as compared to 20 units which are used by some surgeons are associated with similar blood loss and lesser side effects such as bradycardia, pulmonary edema, hypotension, blood loss, and increased airway pressure. Conclusion: Hence, anesthesiologists and gynecologists must take the precautions to escape and minimize the frequency of impediments with intramyometrial vasopressin by selecting the appropriate dosage of vasopressin.

BACKGROUND: Teeth impaction has become a common problem faced by orthodontic clinicians with the greatest incidence reported among third molars and maxillary canines. The great challenge lies in successfully treating these cases without deleteriously affecting the impacted as well as adjacent teeth while achieving acceptable functional and esthetic results. Several etiological factors have been associated with impactions including the presence of an odontome which is an asymptomatic odontogenic hamartomatous lesion. CASE REPORT: This article presents a detailed orthodontic assessment and treatment of a 16 years old female having impacted right maxillary lateral incisor and canine caused by complex odontome. CONCLUSION: Successful orthodontic treatment of multiple impactions can be achieved with minimal side effects even when odontomes are associated, through 3D radiographic examination, detailed evaluation as well as proper biomechanical control.

Post Vaccination

With the rapid development of various coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in a bid to counter and contain the COVID-19 pandemic, unusual and uncommon side effects of COVID-19 vaccination have been increasingly reported in the literature. Ipsilateral lymphadenopathy is a fairly common side effect of vaccination of any kind, with its etiology most commonly related to reactive lymphadenopathy. However, Kikuchi–Fujimoto Disease (KFD) or necrotizing histiocytic lymphadenitis is rarely observed post-vaccination, with only one other case of KFD post COVID-19 vaccination reported to date. We report two more cases of KFD post COVID-19 vaccination in the Asian population, highlighting the clinical course and salient clinical, radiological and histologic findings. In addition, we provide a literature review of the existing cases of lymphadenopathy post COVID-19 vaccination with cytologic and/or histologic correlation.
