Caput medusae in alcoholic liver disease.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Caput medusae and palmar erythema are cardinal signs in cirrhosis of liver with portal hypertension. Palmar erythema is described more often as a marker for alcoholic etiology of chronic liver disease. The peripheral stigmata of chronic liver disease are not routinely seen now a days due to early diagnosis and better therapy. We recently encountered an interesting patient of alcoholic liver disease with two classical signs of the disease and report the same for this unusual presentation.

The occurrence of both VACTERL spectrum and extrahepatic portal hypertension in a patient has not been reported in the literature. We examined whether or not t...
متن کاملHesperian age for western Medusae Fossae Formation, Mars.
The Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF) on Mars is an intensely eroded deposit north of the cratered highlands. It is widely thought that MFF materials were emplaced through ignimbrite eruptions. Recent geologic mapping of western MFF identified outliers of MFF materials well beyond the previously mapped western extent for the deposit, including outliers close to Gale crater. We report counts of imp...
متن کاملRecurrent and troublesome variceal bleeding from parastomal caput medusae.
Variceal bleeding is common in chronic liver disease and is a frequent cause of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The most common site of varices is the lower oesophagus but they may occur at any location where there are portosystemic anastomoses and collateral vascular formation. Location of ectopic varices at the site of enterocutaneous stomas is rare. We report on three cases of recurre...
