Chronic Use

We treated a 65-year-old Japanese man with a giant penile lymphedema due to chronic penile strangulation with a rubber band. He was referred to our hospital with progressive penile swelling that had developed over a period of 2 years from chronic use of a rubber band placed around the penile base for prevention of urinary incontinence. Under a diagnosis of giant penile lymphedema, we performed resection of abnormal penile skin weighing 4.8 kg, followed by a penile plasty procedure. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the seventh report of such a case worldwide, with the present giant penile lymphedema the most reported.

ABSTRACT Multifocal osteonecrosis is a rare disease; chronic use of corticosteroids is considered the main risk factor. Patients with chronic renal failure can develop aluminum toxicity, which can lead to osteomalacia and encephalopathy. An association between osteonecrosis and aluminum toxicity has been reported among patients with dialytic renal insufficiency. Occupational exposure to aluminum rarely causes lung disease and no cases of bone lesions resulting from exposure to this metal have been reported. In this manuscript, we describe a novel case of a patient with multifocal osteonecrosis associated with chronic occupational exposure to aluminum. Level of Evidence IV, Case Report.

Chronic Use

A 20-year-old woman presented following an intentional overdose of valproic acid. Use of valproic acid, either acute or chronic, can result in hyperammonaemia. Mild hyperammonaemia with chronic use is mostly asymptomatic but can also present with concern for encephalopathy. Acute valproic acid toxicity results in significant hyperammonaemia, which can contribute to encephalopathy. Levocarnitine is the treatment of choice in valproic acid toxicity-related hyperammonaemia. For severe cases of encephalopathy, intermittent haemodialysis can also be considered. To our knowledge, this is the first case report to clearly show symptom relapse and hyperammonaemia after discontinuing levocarnitine. We recommend levocarnitine therapy for at least 72 hours, followed by an additional 24 hours of monitoring for symptom relapse and hyperammonaemia after levocarnitine discontinuation.

Cutaneous protothecosis is a rare infection caused by achlorophyllic algae of the genus Prototheca. The lesions usually occur on exposed areas, related with trauma, in immunocompromised patients. The most common clinical presentation is a vesicobullous and ulcerative lesion with pustules and scabs, simulating bacterial, fungal or herpetic infections or eczema. The diagnosis is determined by agent identification through histopathology, culture and the carbohydrates assimilation test. The finding of morula-like spherules is characteristic of Prototheca sp. Its rarity and non-specific clinical aspect may difficult the disease diagnosis. We report a case of a diabetic patient, in chronic use of systemic corticosteroids, that developed a skin lesion after trauma to the right leg.

Acanthopanax senticosus is a traditional herb in China, Russia and many other Asian countries. However no comprehensive study has evaluated its side effects in humans. We report a rare case of hypokalaemic paralysis possibly attributed to A. senticosus induced pseudohyperaldosteronism.
