Acute Blastocystis-Associated Appendicular Peritonitis in a Child, Casablanca, Morocco
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite increasing reports that Blastocystis infection is associated with digestive symptoms, its pathogenicity remains controversial. We report appendicular peritonitis in a 9-year-old girl returning to France from Morocco. Only Blastocystis parasites were detected in stools, appendix, peritoneal liquid, and recto-uterine pouch. Simultaneous gastroenteritis in 26 members of the child's family suggested an outbreak.

متن کاملUnusual Evolution of Plexiform Neurofibroma in the Scalp: A Case Report
The neurofibromatosis is a frequent and polymorphic genetic disorder. The severity is related to the complications. The degeneration of neurofibroma is a very rare complication of neurofibromatosis. In the literature, a few cases of solitary neurofibroma, which turned into a malignant tumor were reported. In our case, we described a very rare clinical case of neurofibrosarcoma in the scalp, and...
متن کاملNumerical Analysis of the Effect of External Circumferential Elliptical Cracks in Transition Thickness Zone of Pressurized Pipes Using XFEM
The present work investigates the effect of the elliptical three-dimensional (3D) cracks on a pipe with thickness transition, considering internal pressure. Level sets were defined using the extended finite element method (XFEM), the stress intensity factors (SIFs) of 3D cracks were investigated and compared between straight pipes and pipes with thickness transition. The results show that the X...
