A newborn girl was referred to the otolaryngology service after prenatal imaging showed a right mandibular mass. Physical examination revealed a 1–2 cm mass along the right mandible with the appearance of a vestigial oral cavity. Tissue resembling the vermillion and primitive tongue appeared innervated and moved in conjunction with oral movements. MRI and CT of the mandible after birth confirmed a partially ossified soft tissue mass of the right mandibular body, containing unerupted teeth. She was...

It causes motor and sensory deficits, altered mental status and other neurological symptoms. Though rarely fatal, it has been associated with residual motor and neurocognitive deficits. Our case consisted of a 4-year-old girl who presented with fatigue and unsteady gait after a respiratory illness. During her hospital course, she became progressively weaker and experienced seizures....

We report the case of a 57-year-old male patient with prior syncope associated with sustained ventricular tachycardia in the setting of Brugada syndrome, who was submitted to implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator for secondary prevention. During follow-up, he presented a significant increase in lead impedance, and a transthoracic echocardiogram showed a mass attached to the lead. He was started on oral anticoagulation after infective endocarditis was excluded but nevertheless suffered repeated...

Abstract Background Many studies have been performed since the discovery of ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) to find substances that reverse its effects on flaps. However, because of minor or major side effects these substances are mostly failed to be put in clinical practice. In this study, the mitigation effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) were investigated for its protective effects on flap necrosis in a rat model. ...

Abstract Genital lymphedema, even though a benign entity, can become physically debilitating disease. Standard treatment modalities for advanced stage lymphedema, when skin changes become irreversible, are surgical debulking. Reconstruction is often done with skin grafts or local or free fasciocutaneous or myocutaenous flaps. We report a case of severe genital lymphedema that was treated with surgical debulking followed by resurfacing with a free omental flap and split thickness...

Abstract Purpose of Review Clinicians should be encouraged to use pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) studies to optimize antifungal drug dosing in the absence of robust comparative effectiveness data or in cases where evidence of causality has not yet been firmly established. The purpose of this article is to review how new triazole and echinocandin PK-PD studies have contributed to our current understanding of antifungal selection...

Advantages of this method, which is used especially for patients with hypoxaemia, are the easy application and the compliance by the patient. Devices are used which enable individual oxygen therapy by means of humidification, warming up and gas flow...
