Background: Extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) accounts for a fifth of all Mycobacterium (M. tb) infections worldwide. The rise multidrug resistance in M. tb alongside the hepatotoxicity associated with antibiotics presents challenges managing and treating (TB), thereby prompting need new therapeutic approaches. Administration liposomal glutathione (L-GSH) has previously been shown to lower oxi...

conclusions although very rare, mdr miliary tb can be seen in immunocompetent subjects. we, thereby, emphasize that early recognition and initiation of treatment are associated with a significant improvement in outcomes. tuberculosis remains a serious worldwide health problem associated with high morbidity and mortality. case presentation our case was a young female patient with in vitro fertil...

BACKGROUND Both brucellosis and tuberculosis are chronic-debilitating systemic granulomatous diseases with a high incidence in many countries in Africa, Central and South America, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. Certain focal complications of brucellosis and extrapulmonary tuberculosis are very difficult to differentiate clinically, biologically and radiologically. As the conventio...

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for treatment of splenic tumors has rarely been reported. Here we describe our experiences of undergoing RFA in three patients with solitary metastatic (n=2) and benign (n=1) tumors of the spleen. Two patients also had underlying cirrhotic hypersplenism. A 53-year-old male with solitary splenic metastasis from hepatocellular carcinoma underwent laparoscopical RFA o...

INTRODUCTION The management of splenic injuries has shifted from splenectomy to splenic preservation owing to the risk of overwhelming post-splenectomy infection (OPSI). This study aimed to identify the factors that determine splenectomy in patients with isolated splenic injuries, with a view to increasing the rate of splenic preservation. PATIENTS AND METHODS Files of 55 patients managed for...

We present the case of a 16-year-old male who asked in an emergency department for sudden abdominal pain since many hours and loss consciousness. Few days before, he had odynophagia high fever. Leucocytosis with lymphocytosis predominance analysis splenic rupture hemoperitoneum echography computerized tomography was shown. The treatment consisted urgent surgery (splenectomy), which uneventful. ...

introduction delayed splenic rupture (dsr) is an unusual outcome following blunt abdominal trauma. although dsr is defined as bleeding more than 48 hours after blunt trauma in a previously hemodynamically stable patient, a review of the reported cases in the literature shows that in almost all of the cases the initial ct imaging revealed some form of damage to the spleen. case presentation here...
