left ventricular free wall rupture is responsible for up to 10% of in-hospital deaths following myocardial infarction. it is mainly associated with posterolateral myocardial infarction, and its antemortem diagnosis is rarely made. one of the medical complications of myocardial infarction is the rupture of the free wall, which occurs more frequently in the anterolateral wall in hypertensives, wo...

introduction sialolithiasis is the most common disease of salivary glands. sialography is particularly important for the assessment of the outflow tract and in diagnosing obstructive salivary gland lesions including calculi. case presentation we report on a 38-year-old female with sialolithiasis whom had wharton’s duct perforation, complicating the sialography. she was treated conservatively wi...

various complications of hydatid cyst have been recognized to date. we have encountered one such complication-rupture of hydatid cyst to the duodenum­ leading to upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a 40 year old male, who referred with severe right upper quadrant (ruq) pain and gastrointestinal bleeding of a few hours' duration. laparotomy revealed a cyst (7 x 15 cm) in the left lobe of the...

Abstract Aim To explore the function(s) of HSP90 in intermediate monocyte-mediated plaque erosion. Materials and methods We used single-cell RNA sequencing to map cardiac immune response composition patients with rupture By focusing our analyses on CD14 positive monocytes, we obtained a higher resolution identification cell subsets experiencing erosion rupture. interpreted findings using gene o...

Adrenal gland pseudocysts are not common conditions, and most of them are nonfunctional and asymptomatic. However, large pseudocysts may causes abdominal discomfort and have compressive effects on adjacent organs. They may rupture spontaneously or after trauma, and lead to retroperitoneal hemorrhage and surgical emergency. Herein, we report a case of 21-year-old female who presented with acute ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture can occur in different ways, such as closed rupture into the retroperitoneum, open rupture into the peritoneal cavity, rupture into surrounding hollow structures, and chronic contained or sealed rupture. Here, we report an unusual case of spontaneous rupture of AAA into a renal cyst that presented with hematuria, abdominal pain and shock, and which was di...

The decision of what to do with asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms is a fairly new problem. Although these aneurysms have been known to exist for centuries through autopsies and for several decades through catheter angiography, their true prevalence did not begin to emerge until the use of non-invasive angiograms became widespread in the recent past. Now we know that nearly 3% of th...

cardiac rupture, particularly rupture of the left ventricular wall, has a very high mortality rate. in this occasion, even if injured patients being alive when carried to the hospital, many of them will die due to following possible reasons: severe bleeding, cardiac tamponade, wasting time for routine and usual diagnostic procedures or transferring the injured to other hospital equipped for car...

background: rupture into the biliary ducts is the most frequent complication of hydatid liver disease. in endemic areas of echinococcus granulosus, development of jaundice in a patient with liver cyst is initially suspected to have hydatid cyst. case presentation: a 48 year-old woman with history of asymptomatic hydatid liver cysts was admitted to the emergency department with right upper quadr...

BACKGROUND/AIM Prediction and prevention of preterm delivery remain great challenge. It is important to include in everyday medical practice determination of certain markers that could help identifying pregnant women with preterm delivery. Insulinlike growth factor (IGF) is involved in the control mechanism of fetal and placental growth and development. The aim of this study was to examine the ...
