The Given

This article describes a clinical case of a filmy form of adenoviral epidemic keratoconjunctivitis (EKC) in an adult patient. The given case is interesting in that the onset of EKC did not foreshadow a complicated, hyperergic course of the filmy form in an adult patient. That ultimately led to cicatricial changes in the conjunctiva in the form of a partial external symblepharon. Alertness of ophthalmologists in relation to this form of EKC, which requires differential diagnosis, first of all, with true toxic diphtheria lesion of the conjunctiva, is necessary. Adequate complex antiviral treatment of EKC with the use of corticosteroids, immunomodulatory and symptomatic therapy helps to stop the process. Key words: adenovirus conjunctivitis, epidemic keratoconjunctivitis, membranous form, complicated course, partial simblefaron, dry eye syndrome.

Modern strategy for management of spondyloarthritis (SpA) is aimed at the earliest possible diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Emergence of nonradiographic SpA in clinical practice necessitates differential diagnosis of this condition from a wide range of diseases including juvenile spondylodysplasia. The article presents a clinical case of newly-diagnosed Scheuermann-Mau disease in an adult patient

The Given

The article presents description of our own observation of a clinical case of severe viral infection caused by SARS- CoV-2 complicated by bilateral polysegmental pneumonia, complete bronchocutaneous fistula in a patient born in 1961. Brief information about the features of pathogenesis, clinical presentation, differential diagnosis and surgical treatment of pulmonary complications of this pathology according to modern literary data is presented. The study of the given clinical case indicates that the most important component of differential diagnosis of lung lesions with SARS-CoV-2 virus is laboratory diagnosis and high-resolution multispiral computed tomography. Pneumothorax and pyopnevothorax are a severe complication of COVID-19. However, in persistent bronchopleural fistula, it is necessary to continue active surgical treatment when it is clinically possible, performing minimally traumatic interventions.

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a rare immune-mediated inflammatory and demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system. Its characteristic perivenular demyelination and inflammation aid in the differential diagnosis with other inflammatory demyelinating diseases. Here, we present a clinical case of ADEM, summarize its histological hallmarks, and discuss pitfalls concerning the most important neuropathological differential diagnoses.

Recurrent Vomiting

The urgency of the problem of recurrent vomiting in children is due not only to the high prevalence of this syndrome, but also to a wide range of reasons for its development. The article presents a clinical case of observation of a child with recurrent vomiting syndrome. It shows the dynamics of the disease, the importance of identifying such «anxiety symptom» as the nutritional status violation. In this case, the cause of vomiting of central genesis was not immediately taken into account, although differential diagnosis presupposes an integrated approach, and doctors' oncological alertness should be constantly preserved even in pediatrics.

Vitamin B6 Deficiency

Purpose: This work reports retinal findings in an adult patient with vitamin B6 deficiency. Methods: A case review of a single patient is presented. Results: A patient with a Roth-type retinal lesion and a history of nonepileptic seizures was found to have lymphocytic colitis. She was treated with pyridoxine, which resolved her seizures and the white-centered hemorrhage. Conclusions: Vitamin B6 deficiency should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with white-centered hemorrhages and a history of nonepileptic seizures.
