Arterial Duct

<p>Critical coarctation of the aorta in newborns usually presents with severe narrowing of the cavotricuspid isthmus and space adjacent to the arterial duct, limiting blood flow to the thoracic aorta. Patient survival depends on duct patency. Rapid deterioration and development of multiple organ failure usually result from spontaneous closure of the patent arterial duct. This deterioration is due in part to reduced renal perfusion and results in fluid and acid retention, causing heart failure and metabolic acidosis. This may be alleviated by the administration of intravenous prostaglandin E1, with a temporary improvement in distal aortic blood flow and the overall condition of the patient. Primary repair is associated with a high risk of unfavourable outcomes due to severe systemic outflow obstruction and multiple organ failure. Therefore, as a bridge to subsequent radical surgery, palliative stenting is the preferred method in newborns with critical aortic coarctation in the decompensated state.</p><p>Received 16 January 2020.

Number Of Patients

One of the most serious problems of modern medicine is sepsis. The number of patients undergoing this complication is 20–30 million (WHO) annually and has no tendency to decrease. Sepsis is characterized by severe multiple organ failure due to a violation of the response of the macroorganism to an infectious agent. Moreover, it is dangerous with high mortality. Sepsis often develops in patients with immunodeficiency conditions, which primarily include pregnant women. The article presents a clinical observation of a case of periostitis in a pregnant woman complicated by a septic state.

New Treatment

Diquat is a widely used herbicide that is substituted for paraquat. With paraquat off the market, cases of diquat poisoning have been gradually increasing. The kidney is the most frequently impaired organ in diquat poisoning. Few cases of multiple organ failure caused by diquat have been reported. We herein describe a 30-year-old man who orally ingested about 160 mL of enriched diquat. Despite aggressive treatment, the patient’s condition progressed to multiple organ failure and death. The pulmonary lesions in this patient were different from those previously reported. This patient did not die of renal failure but of severe respiratory failure. He exhibited three different stages of pulmonary disease. The lung lesions in this case were unique. We hope that doctors will pay more attention to the lung lesions in patients with diquat poisoning in future and find new treatment methods to save the lives of such patients.

Objectives Multiple organ failure is a rare manifestation of ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula which can lead to a high rate of misdiagnosis and death. Methods We reported a 61-year-old man presenting with multiple organ failure rapidly after right lower limb swelling. Computed tomography angiography showed an ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula caused by right common iliac artery aneurysm, and venous thrombosis of bilateral common iliac veins. A bifurcated stent-graft with coil embolization of right internal iliac artery was used for repair. Results The patient recovered rapidly and was discharged without complications. Although arteriovenous fistula persisted due to type II endoleak, aneurysm sac and inferior vena cava significantly shrunk at six months follow-up. Conclusions This report demonstrated that multiple organ failure may appear when the distal outflow tracts of arteriovenous fistula are obstructed. Moreover, endovascular repair is effective for reversal of multiple organ failure caused by arteriovenous fistula, even if arteriovenous fistula persists due to type II endoleak.
