Coumarin-induced skin necrosis represents a clinical entity that occurs very rarely, with an approximate incidence of 0.01-0.1% at patients following oral anticoagulant therapy. Most of the cases become clinical manifest between the 3rd and 6th of anticoagulant treatment (there were reports of late
Introduction. The aim of this paper was to describe two cases of IAN infection-induced paresthesia and to discuss the most appropriate treatment solutions. Methods. For two patients, periapical lesions that induced IAN paresthesia were revealed. In the first case, the tooth was previously
In patients with avascular necrosis (AVN) of the talus in the precollapse stage unresponsive to conservative measures, joint preservation should be considered. Good results have previously been reported for vascularized bone grafting. The medial femoral condyle (MFC) free flap has BACKGROUND
adalimumab, a human recombinant monoclonal antibody against tumoral necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), has been associated with central nervous system demyelinating diseases and peripheral neuropathic syndrome. The Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is one of them.

The development of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor biologic therapy is arguably one of the most significant achievements in the treatment of rheumatic diseases to date. Neurologic events suggestive of demyelination have been reported for patients receiving treatment with the antitumor necrosis
Introduction. Digital ischemia is a rare complication of several chemotherapeutic medications. We aimed to present a patient with digital ischemia, secondary to a new generation chemotherapeutic drug, oxaliplatin. Case Report. 62-year-old woman presented to our department with severe pain,

BACKGROUND
Acute invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (AIFRS) is a potentially fatal infection, usually affecting immunocompromised patients. Isolated sphenoid sinus involvement is rare and has been reported in only a few cases. We discuss the clinical characteristics, histopathologic features, and
OBJECTIVE
The internal mammary artery is the preferred conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting. Although most centers use electrocautery to dissect the internal mammary artery, it has several disadvantages. The purpose of this study in a canine model was to evaluate and compare a fiberoptic CO2
