This study was designed to compare the pattern of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) among obese and nonobese subjects regarding clinical polysomnographic data obtained for a study.A cross-sectional retrospective descriptive conducted by analyzing in 112 consecutive patients underwent at our laboratory from January 2009 July 2010. Out them, 81 were diagnosed have OSA (apnea-hypopnoea Index ≥5). These classified two groups with body mass index (BMI) < 27.5 kg/m(2) as BMI≥27.5 obese. Clinical well...
Poland sequence is a rare congenital anomaly involving the chest wall and arm, displaying differing degrees of severity, functional aesthetic impairments. Here we report series two cases that presented to us with this anomaly. These illustrate, for physicians, importance physical diagnosis reinforce practice looking additional anomalies when one discovered.
Swyer-James-MacLeod syndrome is characterised by unilateral hyperlucency on chest radiograph with small or normal-sized lung the affected side and compensatory hyperinflation of opposite lung. Hyperinflation a very rarely reported entity. An adult female patient, who presented exertional breathlessness diagnosed to have hypoplastic left pulmonary artery hyperlucent, hyperinflated herniated described.
Tubercular infection of the nasal cavity is an infrequently encountered condition. More so, after discovery relevant antibiotics, sinus tuberculosis not commonly seen. Few cases have reported paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx and larynx. With increasing incidence HIV, these rare forms started re-emerging. We present a case middle aged man presenting with lesion along pulmonary tuberculosis, which came to light only diagnosis maxillary tuberculosis.
A 28-year-old woman without any history of prior antituberculosis treatment presented with cervical lymphadenopathy and a cold abscess near medial end clavicle 5 months duration. Pus culture sensitivity revealed Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to rifampicin isoniazid. Thus she was diagnosed as case primary multidrug-resistant treated second line drugs according susceptibility pattern. On completion therapy, patent showed good clinical response. This highlights the observation that even...
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is an immunological pulmonary disorder that characterised by a hyper-responsiveness of the airways to Aspergillus fumigatus . Although several other fungi may also present with similar clinical conditions, remains most common fungal pathogen causing airway infections. Co-existence ABPA allergic sinusitis (AAS) uncommon presentation. The concept one airway/one disease justifies co-existence AAS, but it does not always hold true. We report case...
A 33-year-old patient, Known case of chronic kidney disease on maintenance dialysis presented with complaints low-grade fever and weight loss 2 months duration. Computed tomography (CT) revealed bilateral mild pleural effusion significant mediastinal abdominal adenopathy. CT-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology lymph nodes bone marrow culture was suggestive tuberculosis. The patient started four drug anti-tubercular therapy, post 6 weeks initiation he developed new onset chest X-ray...
Sir, Ameloblastoma are benign locally aggressive tumors accounting for about 1% of all oral tumors. Metastasis occurs in 2-5% patients and lung is approximately involved 80% cases. Solitary or multiple nodules the common manifestations, cavitating have never been reported. Here we report probably first case literature secondaries a 38-year-old female, who was previously diagnosed 5 years back to ameloblastoma right mandible. A female presented pulmonary medicine outpatient department (CMC...
Allergen-specific immunotherapy is the therapeutic approach for allergic disorders with dysregulated immune responses, working through down-regulation of predominant T-cell and IgE mediated reactions by inducing tolerance long-lived decrease in allergen-specific responsiveness administration allergen extracts incremental doses. The potential candidates include mainly those uncontrolled symptoms despite avoidance measures medication use. Traditionally, administered subcutaneously, although...
A 21-year-old boy presented with high grade fever, diffuse chest pain and exertional breathlessness of one month duration. Radiologically he had a large lobulated anterior mediastinal mass necrotic thick enhancing septaes. Histopathology the was suggestive thymoma culture from aspirate yielded Salmonella typhi. The same pathogen isolated in subsequent blood sputum cultures. This current report describes rare association salmonella infection thymoma.
Anomalous systemic arterial supply to normal segments of the lung is a rare congenital anomaly. Although etiology still unknown, it generally believed that this might result from an abnormal persistence embryonic connection between aorta and pulmonary parenchyma.[1] This disease was previously classified as Pryce Type I sequestration.[2] However, absence parenchymal abnormalities with bronchial distinguishes true sequestration.[3] Review published literature search shows not usually...
A 32 -year-old male presented with complaints of fever, dry cough, breathlessness and right sided chest pain two months duration.Chest radiograph showed hydropneumothorax which revealed frank pus on diagnostic thoracocentesis, for tube thoracostomy was done.Despite vigorous broad spectrum antibiotic coverage, postural drainage physiotherapy, there no clinical improvement.Further work up included serology, pleural fluid culture, closed as well thoracoscopic guided biopsy growth Aspergillus...

A 29-year-old female presented with complaints of fever and productive cough three weeks duration. Pulmonary tuberculosis was diagnosed bacteriologically she prescribed antituberculosis drugs. During follow-up developed massive pneumothorax, for which patient refused surgical management managed conservatively. After six months there complete spontaneous resolution pneumothorax. The unusual presentation unexpected outcome prompted us to report this case.
Sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have not been assessed extensively for the treatment of hyperglycemia in noncritically ill, hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). In this investigator-initiated, treat-to-target, randomized trial, 250 cardiac surgery T2D were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive dapagliflozin 10 mg daily plus basal-bolus insulin (DAPA group) or alone (INSULIN early postoperative period. The primary outcome was mean differences between groups their...
Background. Endometriosis is defined as presence of endometrial glands outside the uterine cavity and it most commonly involves structures within pelvic cavity. Thoracic endometriosis syndrome usually presents pneumothorax, hemoptysis, hemothorax or pulmonary nodules. presenting hemorrhagic pleural effusion rarely reported. Objectives. The aim study was to describe insist on role medical thoracoscopy in making diagnosis with help a case report. Methods. A report non-resolving presented....
