Impact of Aortic Elasticity on Plasma B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Levels in Patients with Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

Leave a Comment / Volume 6 /

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: Measurement of plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels is used for ruling out heart failure (HF) in clinical practice. However, elevated plasma BNP levels are often observed in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and with no symptoms of HF. Elevations of plasma BNP levels are multifactorial. Therefore, we […]

Rare Case of Buerger’s Disease with Acute Fulminant Progression to Digital Ischaemia Despite Aggressive Medical Treatment

Leave a Comment / Volume 6 /

1. Abstract Buerger’s disease, also known as thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO), is a non-atherosclerotic, segmental inflammatory disease affecting small to medium-sized arteries and veins in the limbs. It is a rare disease seen mostly in young male smokers below 45 years of age. Disease course is typically gradual, progressing from claudication symptoms to rest pain eventually

Inter Aortic-Caval Paraganglioma Simulating a Pancreatic Mass

Leave a Comment / Volume 6 /

1. Summary Paraganglioma is a tumor that develops from clusters of neuroendocrine cells located along the vascular and nervous axes called paraganglia. They are present in different locations: the thorax (posterior mediastinum), the abdomen (in the vicinity of the large blood vessels; aorta and vena cava) [1]. Some paragangliomas are secreting, most often catecholamines. They

Lymphoepithelial Cyst Mimicking Malignant Pancreatic Signs

Leave a Comment / Volume 6 /

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: A lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas is a rare benign lesion that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively and challenging in distinguishing from potentially malignant cystic pancreatic neoplasms. A diagnostic step-up approach is recommended to clarify the lesion’s dignity and specify a treatment plan.
