An intrathoracic gossypiboma is a rare condition. We are reporting a case of intrathoracicgossypiboma which was misdiagnosed as a recurrent aspergilloma. In our patient, the gossypiboma manifested as a pleural- based extra pulmonary mass which had a large contact area with the pleura and it displayed an extra pulmonary location. A retained surgical swab (gossypiboma) is a rare but an important ...
Background and purpose: Ïn some Çountries clinical tuberculosis is one of the first and most common manifested diseases in HÏV patients. The risk of clinical tuberculosis in HÏV patients with PPD positive is about 50% in their life period compared with 5% to 10% of HÏV negative patients. Ït is less probable to observe tubercle bacilli (TB) in sputum of TB patients with confirmed HÏV, than the...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary arterial hypertension is usually fatal due to right ventricular failure and is frequently associated with co-existing left ventricular dysfunction. Endothelin-1 is a powerful pro-fibrotic mediator and vasoconstrictor that is elevated in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Endothelin receptor blockers are commonly used as pulmonary vasodilators, however their effect on biventri...
Abdominal tuberculosis is one of the most prevalent forms of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. Various regions of gastrointestinal tract including cecum, terminal ileum, peritoneum, lymphatic system, and solid viscera can be affected by tuberculosis. Here we report a 33-year-old woman presented with fever, chills, and a history of abdominal discomfort. Lymphadenopathy was detected on physical exami...
results the incidence of diagnosed thrombo-embolic complication was 32 of 1,153 admitted patients (2.8%; 95% confidence interval: 1.9 to 3.9) with a median interval of 14 days after anti-tb treatment initiation. the incidence of dvt and pte was 2% and 1%, respectively. thrombo-embolic events and dvt were more common in men than in women: 4.2% versus 1.3% (p = 0.003) and 3.5% versus 0.4%, respec...
Haemangiopericytoma is a rare soft tissue tumour characterised by tightly packed tumour cells situated around thin walled endothelial lined vascular channels, ranging from capillary sized vessels to large gaping sinusoidal spaces. The tumour cells are surrounded by reticulin and are negative for muscle, nerve and epithelial markers. The diagnosis of extra-pulmonary intra-thoracic, extra-pleural...
conclusions tuberculosis is still a diagnostic challenge, especially when the presentation is atypical and extra-pulmonary. case presentation a 68-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with fever. he had splenomegaly, ascites and right-sided psoas abscess. chest x-ray was normal. although the vertebral column was intact, he had asymptomatic sacroiliitis. bony changes of the right sacroilia...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is largely based on microscopy and culture examination which are either less sensitive, or time consuming. In the present study a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test based on DNA sequence coding for a 38-kilodalton protein antigen b (Pab) ,specific for Mycobacterium tuberculosis was compared with Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) stained AFB (acid fast...
OBJECTIVE To describe the extra-articular manifestations (cardiac, renal, pulmonary, and neurological), usually not related to spondyloarthritis (SpA), in a large cohort of Brazilian patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study analyzed 1,472 patients diagnosed with SpA and cared for at 29 health care centers distributed in the five major geographic regions in the country, partici...
Despite the huge burden of tuberculosis (TB) in Nigeria, case detection rate of infectious cases still remain low, thus constituting obstacle to eradication of the disease in the community. We carried out a 15 month (1st January 2008 to 30th March 2009) retrospective review of epidemiology of clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis isolated at TB regional reference laboratory at the department of ...
