KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Spinal cord compression from non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) should be considered as a potential diagnosis in cases of acute signs of myelopathy in pediatric patients. ABSTRACT: Spinal cord compression in pediatric non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a rare presentation with potential diagnostic challenges. We report on two pediatric patients with NHL who exhibited myelopathy signs as initial presentation. Considering NHL as a differential diagnosis in pediatric patients presenting with spinal cord compression is crucial for optimizing the outcome of these patients...

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Adenosarcoma of the uterine cervix should be considered in the evaluation of post-menopausal bleeding, as it can be a potential underlying cause. Timely diagnosis and appropriate management are essential to optimize patient outcomes. ABSTRACT: Adenosarcoma is a biphasic neoplasm comprising both a benign epithelial component and a typically low-grade sarcomatous stromal component. Adenosarcoma mainly affects the endometrium (71%), with a lesser incidence in the cervix (2%)...

This case report illustrates that in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be a potential risk factor for pregnancy-associated osteoporosis (PAO), highlighting the need for awareness and monitoring of bone health in women undergoing IVF treatments. PAO is a rare disease resulting from an imbalance of calcium in the body during pregnancy and lactation and presenting with fragility fractures. PAO occurs in late pregnancy or early postpartum period. A 28-year-old woman who conceived through IVF experienced severe back pain 2 days after delivery...

Diverticular bleeding is the most common cause of lower gastrointestinal bleeding and accounts for 20.8%-41.6% of cases in the Western world. Management involves initial resuscitation followed by diagnostic assessment. Colonoscopy is the investigation of choice as it localizes the bleed and has the potential to effectively deliver therapeutic interventions. Other diagnostic modalities include flexible sigmoidoscopy, a tagged red blood cell scan, or angiography. In cases where the bleeding source cannot be identified, intraoperative enteroscopy has emerged as a valuable tool for investigating obscure gastroenterology bleeds in specific patients...

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Although ligating femoral pseudoaneurysm is a safe procedure, some cases require revascularization, and the appropriate treatment should be tailored to the patient. ABSTRACT: In this case report, we highlight the challenge in treating infected femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. The patient, a 37-year-old male intravenous drug abuser, presented to the emergency department with a 2-month history of a progressively growing lump over his right groin...

Abdominal migraine (AM) is a prevalent pediatric condition that rarely affects adults. Multiple diagnostic criteria have been established, but in general, AM is characterized by unprovoked episodes of acute central abdominal pain with migrainous characteristics and periods of respite. Recurrent stomach pain is a prevalent symptom globally, with a significant portion of cases falling under the category of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) due to the absence of identified biological causes. There is a notable prevalence of migraines among individuals with a family history of the condition, indicating a genetic predisposition...

Ventricular standstill is a dangerous arrhythmia that requires prompt diagnosis and intervention, especially in patients with structural heart disease. Clinicians should recognize ventricular standstill as a complication of cardiac revascularization and be cognizant of asymptomatic cases necessitating intervention. Early evaluation to facilitate pacemaker implantation portends good outcomes in this patient subgroup.

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: The presence of multiple pseudoaneurysms in a patient should prompt investigations for the underlying etiologies including autoimmune and immunosuppressive disease processes. Treatment options include open repair and endovascular stenting. ABSTRACT: Pseudoaneurysms (also known as false aneurysms) are atypical dilatations or outpouchings from a vessel which are not always contained by the three layers of a normal vessel wall, namely the intima, media, and adventitia...

KEY CLINICAL MESSAGE: Primary GBM of the optic nerve and chiasma should be included in the differential diagnosis of progressive lesions despite initial treatment; clinicians should avoid delay in confirming the histology to initiate proper treatment and improve prognosis. ABSTRACT: Primary GBM of the optic nerve or chiasma is very rare. The characteristics of this condition have not been well-described, which poses difficulties in establishing the correct diagnosis, affecting the treatment and the prognosis...

Cerebrofacial arteriovenous Metameric syndrome (CAMS) typically manifests as types I, II, or III, occasionally presenting as dual types. Our unique case underscores the coexistence of all three CAMS types in one patient. Furthermore, the concurrent acute cerebellar infarct underscores the need to consider CAMS in the differential diagnosis of adolescents experiencing neurological events.
