Related Articles Left vertebral artery dissection causing BILATERAL internuclear ophthalmoplegia. CJEM. 2008 Sep;10(5):485-7 Authors: Jickling G, Leung K, Gan K, Shuaib A, Lewis J, Mouradian MS A 21-year-old woman presented to the emergency department 1 day after a fall. On the day of presentation, she awoke with horizontal diplopia and posterior neck pain. Based on clinical findings, she was diagnosed with BILATERAL internuclear ophthalmoplegia. A conventional angiogram identified a left vertebral artery dissection. She was started on anticoagulant therapy, with gradual improvement of her diplopia over several months. Diplopia is frequently seen in the emergency department. Internuclear ophthalmoplegia is a cause of binocular diplopia and is important to recognize because it indicates a brainstem lesion requiring neurologic evaluation.

Related Articles Acute lymphoblastic leukemia presenting as BILATERAL renal enlargement in a child. Med Princ Pract. 2008;17(6):504-6 Authors: Ali SH, Yacoub FM, Al-Matar E OBJECTIVE: To report a case with early presentation of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as BILATERAL renal masses and renal failure. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION: A 6-year-old boy was admitted with bilaterally enlarged kidneys and severe renal impairment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed BILATERAL renal enlargement with features suggestive of an infiltrative lesion. Accordingly, bone marrow examination was performed, and diagnosis of ALL was made. The patient developed acute renal failure after initiation of chemotherapy, so he received hemodialysis. His renal function normalized and kidney enlargement regressed. CONCLUSION: This case demonstrates an unusual early renal involvement in ALL in a child. MRI is a valuable imaging modality in the evaluation of renal masses. PMID: 18836283 [PubMed - in process] ...

Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg. 2008 Oct 3; Authors: Kovacikova L, Dobos D, Zahorec M We present the case histories of two children having respiratory failure due to BILATERAL diaphragm paralysis after cardiac surgery. In both children non-invasive positive pressure ventilation alleviated respiratory distress, improved gas exchange, and prevented the need for endotracheal intubation. Following unilateral recovery of diaphragmatic function both children were successfully weaned from non-invasive positive pressure ventilation.

Related Articles Saccular function less affected than canal function in BILATERAL vestibulopathy. J Neurol. 2008 Sep 26; Authors: Zingler VC, Weintz E, Jahn K, Bötzel K, Wagner J, Huppert D, Mike A, Brandt T, Strupp M BILATERAL vestibulopathy (BV) is characterized by impaired or lost function of both labyrinths or eighth nerves. The diagnosis is routinely established by the head-thrust test, caloric irrigation and rotational testing with electronystagmography to determine the high- and low-frequency deficit of the vestibulo-ocular reflex. All three methods evaluate semicircular canal function only. Vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) provide a measure of saccular otolith function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency and extent of saccular dysfunction in patients with BV and to correlate saccular with horizontal semicircular canal dysfunction. A total of 84 BV-patients (23 females, mean age 62 +/- 15 (SD) years at the time of diagnosis assessment) were examined with VEMPs, electronystagmography with caloric irrigation and a standardized neuro-ophthalmological and -otological examination; 47 healthy subjects (18 females, mean 56 +/- 19 years) served as controls. Amplitudes P1-N1 were significantly lower in patients with BV compared to controls (mean P1-N1 of all ears 82.1 +/- 50.7 muV in the patients vs. 130.8 +/- 85.9 muV in healthy volunteers). VEMPs were absent unilaterally in four patients with BV and in no ...

Related Articles BILATERAL pulmonary shadows and incapsulated mediastinal effusion in a patient with respiratory blastoschizomycosis. Pneumologia. 2008 Apr-Jun;57(2):88, 90-1 Authors: Pesut D, Adzic T, Tosic T, Zugi V, Stevic R, Nagorni-Obradovic L, Gvozdenovic E INTRODUCTION: Invasive blastoschizomycosis is an emerging and fatal infection of severely immunocompromised patients. Pneumonia caused by this fungus has been reported as a post mortem diagnosis in a patient with haematologic malignancy. CASE REPORT: A 46-year-old unemployed Caucasian man, smoker, was admitted on emergency in a serious condition, with BILATERAL pulmonary infiltrates (chest x-ray) and incapsulated mediastinal pleural effusions (computed tomography scans). Blastoschizomyces capitatus (Trichosporon capitatum) has been isolated from two sputum samples and bronchial secretion aspirate obtained by bronchoscopy. CONCLUSION: Pneumonia caused by Blastoschizomyces capitatus can develop in subjects without underlying malignancy but with history of heavy alcohol intake, tobacco smoking and malnutrition and may have favorable disease outcome.

In the report, the authors proposed their own classification of renal diseases based on a ''physopathological'' criterion and different from the classifications proposed by other authors of the period. According to Bastai and Crepet, renal diseases could be classified into arteriolopathies (either acute or chronic), capillary diseases (glomerulonephritides, including inflammatory and noninflammatory forms), renal diseases due to circulatory failure, nephropathies due to toxic substances, interstitial nephropathies, and idiopathic nephropathies. Of particular interest today is the part of the paper on the nosography of the so-called ''genuine glomerulonephrosis'' which, at variance with the view of the leading clinicians at the time, was placed among the inflammatory glomerul ...

Related Articles Case of BILATERAL multiple herpetic epithelial keratitis manifested as dendriform epithelial edema during primary Kaposi's varicelliform eruption. Jpn J Ophthalmol. 2008 Mar-Apr;52(2):127-9 Authors: Higaki S, Inoue Y, Yoshida A, Maeda N, Watanabe H, Shimomura Y BACKGROUND: BILATERAL herpetic keratitis has been reported in patients with atopy, measles, graft-versus-host disease, and altered immune status. We report a serologically verified case of primary, simultaneous onset, BILATERAL, atypical epithelial herpetic keratitis that manifested as dendriform epithelial edema during a generalized dermatitis incident. CASE: A 37-year-old man with chronic atopic dermatitis developed Kaposi's varicelliform eruption and BILATERAL dendritic epithelial keratitis with corneal epithelial edema. OBSERVATIONS: The pathogens isolated from both eyes were identified as herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) by a direct immunofluorescence method. Serological tests obtained on three different occasions over a 5-week period verified a primary HSV infection. CONCLUSIONS: With serological verification, we report a rare case of primary, simultaneous onset, BILATERAL, dendritic epithelial keratitis at a very early stage with complications of generalized herpetic disease in a patient with atopic dermatitis.
