Bartter Syndrome is a rare congenital disease that manifests as hypokalemia, hyponatremia and hypotension. The disease occurs due to defective genes that are responsible for the reabsorption of certain electrolytes in the renal tubules. Hence it results in salt-wasting dyselectrolytemia. By its inheritable nature, the usual presentation of the disease is in the infants and children. But this case report presents an adult with symptoms of Bartter Syndrome which was discovered by chance while the patient was being treated for Acute gastroenteritis. Adult onset of Bartter Syndrome is incredibly rare and has been reported only in few other cases.

TOLOSA HUNT SYNDROME WITH OPTIC NERVE INVOLVEMENTABSTRACTTolosa Hunt syndrome (THS) is a very rare clinical syndrome, which is characterized by unilateral headaches accompanied by dysfunction and painful ophthalmic nerves. In some cases, optic nerve involvement can be found due to inflammation at the orbital apex. Corticosteroid administration is a management of THS with pain relief generally occurring in the first 72 hours. However, corticosteroid administration is not significantly associated with nerve dysfunction or visual acuity improvement.This article is a case report of women with STH and optic nerve involvement.Keywords: Tolosa Hunt syndrome, painful ophtalmoplegia, orbital apex, superior orbital fissureABSTRAKSindrom Tolosa Hunt (STH) adalah sindrom klinik yang sangat jarang, yang ditandai oleh nyeri kepala unilateral disertai disfungsi dan nyeri saraf penggerak bola mata (painful ophtamloplegia). Pada beberapa kasus, dapat ditemukan keterlibatan saraf optikus akibat inflamasi pada apeks orbita. Pemberian kortikosteroid merupakan tatalaksana STH dengan perbaikan nyeri umumnya terjadi pada 72 jam pertama. Meskipun demikian pemberian kortikosteroid tidak berhubungan secara signifikan dengan perbaikan disfungsi saraf penggerak bola mata maupun tajam penglihatan. Artikel ini merupakan laporan kasus perempuan dengan STH dan keterlibatan saraf optikus.Kata kunci: Sindrom Tolosa Hunt, painful ophtalmoplegia, apeksorbita, fisura orbitalis superior

AbstractAnnular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly that results from the malrotation of the ventral pancreatic bud. The presentation of annular pancreas varies: it can be asymptomatic or present clinical symptoms of duodenal obstruction that can affect all age groups, from newborns to adults. In the present case report, we describe a complete type of annular pancreas at the level of the second part of the duodenum, which was an incidental finding in a prosected specimen. This anomaly has significant clinical relevance to clinicians and radiologists due to its variable presentation. The embryological, clinical and radiological aspects of this congenital anomaly are discussed in detail in the present article.
