A cough is observed by medical practitioners of various specialties, and is among the most common symptoms of the broad range of disorders. The cause of coughing remains unclear in more than half of adults, who visit physicians with complaints of respiratory symptoms. The paper reports the principles of the cough differential diagnosis and treatment in patients with respiratory disorders, including during the pandemic; the cough features, characteristic of pulmonary fibrosis and COVID-19, are discussed. The clinical case of the 47-year-old patient, illustrating the need to use CT not only at onset, during the acute period of the disease, but also during the recovery period in patients with a lingering cough, is discussed as an example of the cough differential diagnosis.

The article reports on the clinical case of a patient with a diagnosis of "Stafne cyst", who was treated in the oncology department No. 8 of the Pavlov PSPbSMU. The features of differential diagnosis and diagnostic measures necessary to clarify the diagnosis are given. The situations when it is possible to avoid additional traumatic tests, as well as indications for the choice of surgical intervention or the possibility of refusing it, are analyzed. The presented data can be useful when creating algorithms for the diagnosis and treatment of a Staph cyst and making recommendations on the timing of treatment.

Hashimoto encephalopathy is a rarely diagnosed autoimmune neurological disorder, associated with the presence of antithyroid antibodies. The variability of clinical presentation, rarity of the disease, and absence of specific diagnostic markers make timely diagnosis very complicated. This article describes a clinical case of a female patient with Hashimoto encephalopathy and discusses diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment approaches. We emphasize the importance of establishing a timely diagnosis, considering high efficacy of targeted treatment.
