Platinum salts are also able to release h...

Anaphylactoid reaction during first hemofiltration
with a PUREMA polysulfone membrane.

Adverse reactions during hemodialysis are extremely common and include a wide range of clinical presentations from mild to life threatening. We present a case of a 34 year old woman in the Burn Intensive Care Unit, who developed acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy.

Anaphylactoid reaction to hydroxycobalamin with tolerance of cyanocobalamin.

syndrome in extensive haemangioma of the tongue and lip in a newborn infant.4 Thirdly, the substernal goitres reported in the literature have not been uniformly defined in relation to the proportion of the thyroid gland within the thorax. Therefore, it is rather difficult to compare the sizes and the results of reported series of substernal goitres. For the last decade, we and others' have chos...
