Repeated treatments with rituximab in a patient with amyloid-like IgM deposition neuropathy
Amyloid-like immunoglobulin M (IgM) deposition neuropathy associated with Waldenström macroglobulinemia is a rare phenotype of IgM-related neuropathy. The prominent clinical features are painful sensory-dominant neuropathy followed by distal motor weakness and atrophy over a long clinical course that are refractory to immunosuppressive treatment in many patients. Herein, we report a case of amy...
متن کاملPaederus dermatitis: A clinico-pathologic study in Ahwaz
Background: Paederus dermatitis, an acute erythemato-vesiculo-bullous dermatitis contracted through contact with the secretions of the Paederus species, is frequently seen among the people living in the south-west part of our country during spring and early summer months. Objective: This study was conducted to elucidate the responsible arthropod in Khuzestan province and to study the clinical s...
متن کاملC1q ablation exacerbates amyloid deposition: A study in a transgenic mouse model of ATTRV30M amyloid neuropathy
ATTRV30M amyloid neuropathy is a lethal autosomal dominant sensorimotor and autonomic neuropathy, caused by deposition of amyloid fibrils composed of aberrant transthyretin (TTR). Ages of onset and penetrance exhibit great variability and genetic factors have been implicated. Complement activation co-localizes with amyloid deposits in amyloidotic neuropathy and is possibly involved in the kinet...
متن کاملHellenic holocaust: a historical clinico-pathologic conference.
The traditional clinico-pathologic conference (CPC) begins with a case presentation. Next, a clinician analyzes the clinical information, illustrating the diagnostic process and proposing one “best-fit” diagnosis for the anonymous (and often dead) patient. Finally, a pathologist presents the actual autopsy or histologic findings, either validating or rejecting the clinician’s diagnosis. This “h...
متن کاملElectrophysiologic and clinico-pathologic characteristics of statin-induced muscle injury
Objective(s):In this study, we aimed at evaluation of electrophysiological and histopathalogical characteristics of statin-induced muscle injury as well as clinical features of patients who develop this condition in terms of frequency and pattern of evolution. Materials and Methods: Forty patients (age 39-74 years) including 25 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 9 with cardiovascular disea...
