A 61-year-old male patient presented with petechiae on the arms and legs due to a thrombocytopenia of 3 Gpt/l (3000/microl). A butterfly rash on the patient's face suggested a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The thrombocytopenia was due to autoimmune thrombocytopenia. The diagnosis
Abstract. We report here a 35 year-old immunocompetent male, with a fulminantly lethal diffuse alveolar hemorrhage caused by CMV pneumonia. The patient was admitted with fever, rust colored sputum and exertional dyspnea. A chest x-ray revealed bilateral alveolar infiltration in a butterfly pattern.
OBJECTIVE
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. The most common cause is an inability of the uterus to contract adequately after childbirth. In bimanual compression (BMC), one hand is placed within the vagina and the other hand is on the abdominal
Introduction: There have been significant increases in the number of acetabular fractures in elderly patients with primarily ventral pathology and medial protrusion of the femoral head. We have developed the "acetabulum wing plate", which is designed to facilitate repositioning, with its
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the preferred technique for en bloc resection of superficial colorectal neoplasms. Resection of extensive lesions with ESD can be challenging, owing to loss of orientation in the submucosal space. In this case series, we describe the OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of a butterfly shaped mesh in treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
METHODS
From July 2003 to January 2004, 82 patients with SUI were treated with a butterfly shaped mesh. All patients were followed up at 1st, 3rd, 6th month after operation. According to
By intracervical administration of 0.75 mg PGE2, using a butterfly needle, the authors preinduced 32 patients with an immature portio vaginalis cervicis (CS 5 points) who had indications for termination of a full-term pregnancy. Slow administration lasted cca 6 hours. Maturation of the portio
BACKGROUND
Crimean Congo Haemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a deadly fever caused by Nairovirus (family Bunyaviridae). It is an important public health problem in hyperendemic regions with a high mortality rate. There have been many studies on cutaneous findings in other viral infections, however, our
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the hemostatic efficacy of a novel femoral artery compression device in patients undergoing an interventional procedure through femoral artery puncture.Material and methods: Patients enrolled in this trial were randomly assigned 1:1 to the
A dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) with spinal perimedullary venous drainage can cause progressive myelopathy, and it is sometimes incorrectly diagnosed as another spinal cord disease. Here we report the cases of three individuals with a DAVF (one craniocervical junction DAVF and two tentorial
Abstract The case of an 18-year-old Japanese man with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) complicated by alveolar hemorrhage is described. The patient presented with fever, butterfly rash, and polyarthralgia, and was diagnosed with SLE. He suddenly developed alveolar hemorrhage during steroid pulse
Three patients with end-stage renal failure died from acute haemorrhage which, in the first two cases, was related to the use of internal jugular catheters for haemodialysis. In the third instance, severe haemorrhage was caused by the apparent self-insertion of a 16-gauge butterfly needle, connected
OBJECTIVE
The authors describe a technique for hemorrhage drainage following glaucoma surgery that uses an anterior chamber maintainer to minimize risk to the anterior lens capsule.
METHODS
Two patients had suprachoroidal hemorrhages following filtration surgery. Because their eyes were phakic, an
