Case reports about vasopressin-induced cutaneous necrosis are not frequent. Here we report a further case, of which skin manifestations included not only mottling, cyanosis, ecchymosis, bullae and gangrene, but also amber-like change in focal areas. Besides, intermittent paling of the skin with or
Ischemic myocardial and papillary muscle dysfunction has considerable implication in newborn infants and children with normal or malformed hearts. Papillary muscle dysfunction in adults primarily involves coronary artery occlusion and ischemic necrosis in the left ventricle and papillary muscles.
A 7-year-old dog was accidentally given 10 times the recommended dose of imidocarb dipropionate for suspected babesiosis. Twenty-four hours later, the dog developed severe depression, tachycardia with premature ventricular contractions, cyanosis and hind limb tremors. Shortly thereafter, the dog

METHODS
Fifteen infants with heart failure resulting from left-to-right shunts with
BACKGROUND Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS), which is a type of functional renal impairment, is one of the most serious complications in patients with liver cirrhosis. Terlipressin can induce splanchnic vasoconstriction, which increases the renal blood flow and has beneficial effects on HRS. However,
OBJECTIVE
Hepatic infarction is characterized by parenchyma ischemic necrosis involving at least two acinis. It is extremely uncommon due to the arterial and portal venous blood supply. We report a case of a patient not know to have diabetes who developed massive areas of ischemic infarcts of the

BACKGROUND
Previous studies reporting on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) as a marker of inflammatory response (IR) in patients with congenital heart disease were limited by small sample size and variability in diagnosis. We report perioperative changes in TNF-α levels and their correlation with
