Angioedema is a transient, non-pitting oedema that involves subcutaneous or submucosal tissue. Angioedema in children can have varied aetiology and clinical manifestations, unlike that in adults. We report a case of angioedema of penis in a child resulting from insect bite and treated successfully with anti-histamine and leukotriene inhibitor. Penile angioedema should be kept in mind as a differential diagnosis of penile swelling, as early diagnosis and management may prevent fatal complications.

2/3 of all diseases of the nervous system in children begin to develop in the perinatal period. In recent decades, great strides have been made in perinatal neurology in the development of criteria for early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Further study of the biochemical foundations of perinatal lesions of the nervous system with the definition of objective markers of the severity of the lesion will reveal new links in its pathogenesis and develop more effective methods of treatment.

As immigration to the United States from countries endemic for tuberculosis (TB) increases, the incidence of pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB disease may increase. Primary tuberculous sternal osteomyelitis is one form of extrapulmonary TB that is exceedingly rare throughout the world, and falls under the differential diagnosis for chest wall masses. Management involves standard antituberculous therapy with antibiotics similar to treating other forms of extrapulmonary TB, as well as consideration of surgical intervention depending on the extent of osteomyelitis. A typical case of primary sternal TB osteomyelitis is reported, and the epidemiology, differential diagnosis, clinical manifestations and management are reviewed.

Important Practical Application

Dementia and, in particular, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), affects millions of people around the world and its prevalence is steadily rising annually. Some risk factors for AD, such as age, cannot be modified, while others could possibly be corrected. In recent years, many studies are tackling the problem of the oral and gut microbiota as a provoking factor for AD and other neurodegenerative diseases, but their relationship and specific pathophysiological mechanisms remain understudied. The microbiota of the oral cavity can be of particular importance due to the specificity of microorganisms and their localization, as well as the possibility of provoking neuroinflammation, which requires further study. This review covers the specific features of the oral microbiota, current views on the pathophysiological role of the oral microbiota in the development of AD, as well as the beneficial role of probiotics. The study of this issue can have an important practical application both for the early diagnosis of AD, and for its further treatment.

Syphilis is an infectious disease with complex acute and chronic manifestations that is transmitted primarily through sexual contact. The disease has been recognized for many centuries, although its origin remains unknown. This chapter’s discussion of the epidemiology of syphilis includes figures illustrating the rate of syphilis in the United States by state and county and the rate of syphilis in the United States from 1941 to 2009. The etiology, pathogenesis and disease course, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and complications of syphilis are discussed. Special cases of syphilis—in pregnant women, in children, in HIV-infected patients, and congenital syphilis—are also considered. Illustrations include a dark-field microphotograph of treponemes and photographs of a syphilitic chancre, the classic aculopapular rash from spirochetemia, condylomata lata, and a gumma. Tables outline the clinical manifestations of syphilis in adults and the treatment of syphilis. The nonvenereal treponematoses—yaws, endemic syphilis, and pinta—are a group of infections distributed throughout tropical and semitropical areas of the world. They are primarily noted to cause a variety of skin and skeletal lesions. There is little biologic difference between the treponemes that cause these conditions. The epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and treatment of the nonvenereal treponematoses are discussed. This chapter contains 7 highly rendered figures, 2 tables, 60 references, 1 teaching slide set, and 5 MCQs.

Клинические проявления микроскопического полиангиита многообразны, что затрудняет своевременную диагностику и соответственно адекватное лечение. Цель: привлечь внимание терапевтов, пульмонологов, нефрологов к своевременному выявлению легочно-почечного синдрома и установлению его нозологической основы, в частности микроскопического полиангиита на примере клинического случая. Материалы и методы: проведены обследование пациента с микроскопическим полиангиитом и дифференциальная диагностика в рамках легочно-почечного синдрома. Результаты: на основании анамнеза заболевания, результатов клинического и дополнительных методов исследования пациента, установлен диагноз микроскопического полиангиита. Выводы: для ранней диагностики микроскопического полиангиита необходима настороженность при возникновении легочно-почечного синдрома в виде сочетания гломерулонефрита и геморрагического альвеолита на фоне сосудистой пурпуры. Clinical manifestations of microscopic polyangiitis are diverse, which complicates timely diagnosis and, accordingly, adequate treatment. Goal: to draw the attention of therapists, pulmonologists, nephrologists to the timely detection of pulmonary-renal syndrome and the establishment of its nosological basis, in particular microscopic polyangiitis by the example of a clinical case. Materials and methods: an examination of a patient with microscopic polyangiitis and differential diagnosis within the framework of pulmonary-renal syndrome were carried out. Results: based on the anamnesis of the disease, the results of clinical and additional research methods of the patient, the diagnosis of microscopic polyangiitis was established. Conclusions: for early diagnosis of microscopic polyangiitis, alertness is necessary in the event of pulmonary-renal syndrome in the form of a combination of glomerulonephritis and hemorrhagic alveolitis against the background of vascular purpura.

AbstractTwenty cases suffering from rhinoscleroma were studied. Bronchoscopy was performed for detection of secondary involvement of the subglottic region, trachea and bronchus. The study revealed that the larynx was involved in 40 per cent, the trachea in 20 per cent and the bronchus in 10 per cent of cases. The intranasal lesion, endotracheal and endobroncheal lesions all occur in the form of an atrophic stage, granulomatous (proliferative) stage and finally a fibrotic or scarring stage. The role of bronchoscopy in early diagnosis, initial symptomatic treatment and in follow-up is discussed in the light of the available literature.

Risk Of Relapse

Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a generalized progressive autoimmune inflammatory disease of the cartilaginous tissue, which leads to structural changes in the cartilage until its complete disappearance. To date, about 800 RP cases have been described in the world. The clinical manifestations of RP are diverse, which often complicates the early diagnosis of the disease. The most commonly used drugs to stop RP activity are glucocorticoids, the dose of which depends on the severity of its clinical manifestations, but there is no evidence for their effect on the progression of the process and the risk of relapse. The paper describes a clinical case of early diagnosis and successful treatment of the disease, which could prevent possible complications and disability in the patient.
