OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between placenta and perinatal outcomes, in preterm infants born to mothers with preterm premature rupture of fetal membrane (PPROM).
METHODS
We report detailed histology of placentas and perinatal outcomes of infants from 79 PPROM pregnancies. Placental
Ascertaining the cause of a gastric rupture is difficult and can be complicated by events occurring in the pre-hospital phase of patient care. To our knowledge, only seven cases of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)-related injuries to the stomach have been reported in the literature since 1997. We
BACKGROUND
Sentinel headache is a well-known warning sign preceding subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) caused by rupture of an intracranial aneurysm. New-onset seizure or "sentinel seizure" preceding aneurysmal SAH, however, is uncommon.
METHODS
We report a 51-year-old man with a new-onset seizure.
We present a case of quadriceps tendon (QT) rupture. QT ruptures can occur in all ages. The cause is mostly traumatic in origin. Spontaneous ruptures that are thought to result from predisposing conditions are rare. Post-convulsion QT ruptures lacking traumas in their history can be overlooked in
Seizures can lead to different types of injuries which can be as simple as minor lacerations and at times as serious as fractures and head injuries. We are reporting a case wherein a female patient presented with a history of abdominal pain and not passing urine for 24h following an attack of
A 29-year-old man, a known epileptic, presented to an accident and emergency department following a tonic-clonic seizure, suffering a second seizure in the department. Subsequently, he reported neck pain, swelling and stiffness. An otorhinolaryngology neck examination revealed a tender left side
Seizures are one of the most common pediatric neurologic disorders. Many complications secondary to seizures have been described in the literature including head trauma, fractures, drowning and burns. However, to the best of our knowledge, rupture of the myotendinous insertion of the temporalis
Non-traumatic rupture of large tendons is identified as a contributor to morbidity in patients who receive haemodialysis. The injury is likely to become more common as the duration of survival on dialysis extends. A number of predisposing factors leading to tendon injury have been identified in the
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a very common cause of morbidity and mortality in the U.S. Here, we present a case of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in the setting of seizure activity. In this rare case, we have data from optical coherence tomography (OCT) that showed no plaque
