A Rare Case of an Intra-nasal Ectopic Tooth in a Young Woman

Postpartum seizures secondary to subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are rare. The incidence of pregnancy-related SAH is increasing and is highest during the delivery and postpartum periods. While there have been cases in the literature of SAH occurring postpartum, very few are associated with Moyamoya disease. We present a rare case of a young woman diagnosed with Moyamoya disease following immediate postpartum seizures secondary to a SAH. She was medically managed and discharged without any neurological deficits. This case highlights how seizures and SAH may develop in the immediate postpartum period in an otherwise healthy young woman.

Laboratory Investigations

This is a case of a 14-year-old woman diagnosed with acute pancreatitis based on history and laboratory investigations. CT scan confirmed the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis along with the presence of two bezoars in the stomach and proximal jejunum. Gastroscopy showed a large trichobezoar with difficult endoscopic extraction. Accordingly, the patient underwent laparotomy, gastrostomy and enterotomy with successful removal of the large gastric and jejunal daughter bezoars. Following surgery, pancreatitis resolved and investigations returned to normal. Child psychiatry consultation was sought, and she was diagnosed with trichotillomania and trichophagia.
