Postherpetic abdominal pseudohernia: A diagnostic pitfall

The accurate diagnosis of postherpetic abdominal pseudohernia, the rare complication of herpes zoster, is essential to avoid unnecessary imaging studies or surgery. Close observation and waiting for complete recovery are warranted considering the disease's self-resolving nature and favorable prognosis.

a t t e r n T h e o r e t i c L e a r n i n g Abstract The goal of learning from sample data is to extract a concept that captures the underlying pattern while still representing it in a way useful to the investigator. A new approach based on function decomposition in the Pattern Theory framework is presented here. The objective of this extended abstract is threefold. The rst is to provide an o...

Theory in Biology: Figure 1 or Figure 7?

The pace of modern science is staggering. The quantities of data now flowing from DNA sequencers, fluorescence and electron microscopes, mass spectrometers, and other mind-blowing instruments leave us faced with information overload. This explosion in data has brought on its heels a concomitant need for efforts at the kinds of synthesis and unification we see in theoretical physics. Often in ce...

Postherpetic pseudohernia must be suspected when a patient develops motor dysfunction coincident with or following a herpes zoster eruption.
