Pseudoaneurysm is due to a disruption in arterial wall continuity. It forms a sac that communicates with the vessel lumen and is surrounded by the compressed, surrounding tissues and not by the wall of the artery from which the lesion arises. Many causes can predispose to the formation of a pseudoaneurysm such as trauma, surgical procedures, anticoagulation. In our patient another important risk factor for the formation of a pseudoaneurysm is ADPKD (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease) that can cause vascular complication. The mechanisms leading to the genesis of the pseudoaneurysms in our patient are unknown, but the clinicians should bear in mind when evaluating this type of patients that ADPKD may have a various range of systemic cardiovascular manifestation.

Calcific Periarthritis

ABSTRACT Acute calcific periarthritis (ACP) is an unusual cause of monoarticular pain characterised by the deposition of calcium hydroxyapatite in the peri-articular and intra-articular tissues. Although the most commonly affected joint is the shoulder, other joints may be involved, including the wrist. This case report describes a 57-year-old female presenting with wrist pain and swelling associated with amorphous calcification overlying the lunate. The patient improved with the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and splinting. Clinician awareness of the clinical presentation and radiographic features of ACP is important to reduce unnecessary invasive diagnostic procedures such as joint aspiration.

Introduction: Simultaneous fractures in the neck of femur on the one side and contralateral intertrochanteric fracture of the femur with only trivial injury are among rarest injuries. Fracture neck of femur or intertrochanteric fracture either isolated or in combination such as simultaneous bilateral fracture neck of femur and simultaneous bilateral intertrochanteric fractures are relatively commonly reported in literature. Herein, we report a very rare case of a young female with chronic kidney disease who presented with simultaneous fractures neck of femur on the one side and contralateral intertrochanteric fracture of femur after a fall from standing height. Case Report: A 41-year-old female with chronic kidney disease from the past 5 years presented to us with severe pain at both hip and inability to stand after a fall from standing height. Clinical examination and investigations were done. She suffered fracture neck of femur on the right side and intertrochanteric fracture femur on the left side. Single stage fixation of both these fractures by two different methods was done successfully after optimization of her medical condition with multidisciplinary approach. She was advised weight bearing according to fixation method used and progress of fracture union. She regained her preoperative walking status gradually in 6 months. Conclusion: Simultaneous fractures in the neck of femur on the one side and intertrochanteric fracture of the femur on the other side are very rare presentation and can happen in patients with primary or secondary bone disease. Multidisciplinary team effort is needed for overall effective management and prompt surgical treatment can help achieve favorable outcome. Keywords: Simultaneous, fracture neck of femur, intertrochanteric fracture femur.

Background: Although hemorrhages associated with cervical and thoracic intraspinal schwannomas are typically localized to the subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAH) or subdural hemorrhages (SDH) compartments, rare intratumoral bleeds may also occur. Methods: In the literature, we found and analyzed multiple factors for 13 cases (e.g., epidemiological, clinical, and pathological) of cervical schwannomas with intratumoral hemorrhages (ITH). We added the 14th case of a 35-year-old female with along segment cervical schwannoma with ITH who presented with acute quadriplegia and respiratory decompensation. Results: These 14 patients averaged 51.77 years of age, 60% were male, and the tumor involved 2.83 segments. The incidence of SAH and ITH was noted in five cases each, while SDH’s were very rare. The pathological characteristics were consistent with the diagnosis of cellular schwannomas with S-100 positivity. The clinical outcomes were good (100%) in all the cases, including the one presented (modified McCormick score III). Conclusion: Cervical schwannomas with ITH are rare, and the surgical outcomes in such patients are good-excellent (>90%). The histopathology is always of prime importance and decisive in establishing and confirming the etiology of such ITH.

The primary concern of this case report is to discuss and review the different etiological features of c shaped canals, with its incidence, along with anatomical features, diagnosis and management of the c shaped configuration of the canal in the molars of the mandibular arch. Literature revealed that c shaped canal configuration is slightly a different variation that has a predilection towards the racial and most of the times or most commonly is seen in mandibular molars that too most commonly in second molar of the mandibular arch. This morphology when present in the canal may posses difficulty in shaping of the canal, cleaning of the canal as well as debridement of the canal along with obturation of the canal. The one of the most common way in the management of this c shaped canal morphology is done by with the help of usage of rotary instruments and can also with the use of hand instruments that too assisted with sonics as well as ultrasonics.

Cosmetic Medicine

Most popular fillers in cosmetic medicine are hyaluronic acid based. These comprise over 90% of the market and come with the advantage to be soluble in case of complications. Other fillers are contained in the group of bio-stimulatory fillers. They exert a secondary volumizing effect by provoking a low-grade inflammatory response that produces extra collagen. Examples are calcium-hydroxyapatite and L-poly-lactid acid. Finally autologous fat is being used as a filling substance (lipofilling). The gravest complications with fillers are intravascular injections. In particular when injected in arteries fillers can block blood flow and lead to skin necrosis or vison loss in case the material occludes the Central Retinal Artery (CRAO). Two opposing theories about the nature of arterial occlusion exist. One based on Ian Taylor idea of choke anastomoses assume vasoconstriction induced by the filler, both of the primary offended artery and its anastomosing vasosomes. In this case resolving the hyaluronic acid filler with the enzyme hyaluronidase at the primary occluding location would suffice. This is done under ultrasound guidance. The other theory assumes displacement of parts of the filler to end arterioles. Then, the whole affected area has to be flooded with large dosages of hyaluronidase. Obstructions with fillers based on other materials cannot be resolved. It seems logical to prevent intra-arterial filler injection by duplex sonography detection of the course of arteries prior to injection. Ultrasound has additional advantages for cosmetic doctors such as recognizing remains of previously injected filler. It also can give feedback on a physician’s ability to inject filler in the correct subdermal location.

In the last two decades, 308-nm excimer laser has been increasingly recognized as a therapeutic alternative for several dermatological conditions, being currently FDA approved for the treatment of localized vitiligo and moderately severe localized psoriasis unresponsive to topical treatments. We describe the case of a 17-year-old with a recalcitrant form of dermatitis occupying the entire perioral region, previously unresponsive to several treatments, who was treated with 308-nm excimer laser with an excellent result. 308-nm monochromatic excimer laser has several advantages over other types of phototherapy, including lower UV dose exposure, shorter courses of therapy and a better sparing of adjacent tissue. Although infrequently used, 308-nm excimer laser certainly has a vast potential in Dermatology, particularly regarding recalcitrant and localized inflammatory conditions, such as the one we present.

ObjectiveThis case is presented to describe a rare psychopathology in which the patient hears her own voice speaking out loud all the texts that she sees in books or papers and she cannot read them inside her mind. This psychopathological phenomena has some features of reflex hallucinations, thought echo as well as of inner reading voices yet it cannot be categorized into either one.Case reportThis is a 26-year-old female with Schizophrenia for 3 years. While on medication 8 months before presentation she started hearing her own voice reading any text that she sees. When she sees a text she cannot read it in her mind and understand, but she hears it in her own voice to her ears. With this she also hears other voices talking about her and to her. She also believes that her father is the one who controls all her actions and the things that happen to her. In her mental state examination her mood was euthymic and she had delusions of control, thought broadcasting and in her perceptions she had visual perceptual abnormality where she saw the same object she would look at in another direction but they are under her control. She also had second and third person auditory hallucinations. She was admitted to start on clozapine because her voices did not respond to any medication.DiscussionAuditory hallucinations are the most commonly encountered type in schizophrenia with a prevalance of 70–80%. This patient hears the words that she sees which has some features of reflex hallucinations, however in the latter the hallucination is not a transformation of the perception. This also has some qualities of thought echo, where just as the patient thinks she can hear them. However in this patient she cannot read the texts in her mind. Inner reading voices are where a person talks to oneself while reading, however in the subjective mind. In our patient this phenomenon also proved to be the most difficult to treat as all her other auditory hallucinations responded to Clozapine, while still this phenomenon remained.ConclusionThis case is presented to describe the rare psychopathology in this patient in the form of auditory hallucinations
