Materials Methods This study was conducted 170 patients hospitalized dengue fever a tertiary care hospital between July 2022 September 2023. Patients were tested for clinical laboratory parameters, including urine routine microscopy, spot protein/creatinine ratio, ultrasonography. followed up four 12 weeks....
Esophageal cancer is quite prevalent worldwide and usually carries a poor prognosis. Histologically, although squamous cell carcinoma adenocarcinoma predominate, small (SmCC) cases have been reported. Overall, there paucity of literature regarding this variant. In article, we aim to highlight uncommon entity esophagus share our experience SmCC patients seen over decade at institute.

Renal lymphangiectasia (RL), also known as renal lymphangiomatosis, is a rare benign condition characterized by ectasia of peripelvic, perirenal and intrarenal lymphatic vessels. It accounts for approximately 1% all lymphangiomas.1 The pathophysiology remains unclear. However, it hypothesized that the failure draining into larger retroperitoneal channels causes abnormal cystic dilatation ducts.2 RL can manifest at any age, with males females equally affected.

Snake bite envenomation is common in tropical countries during the summer. bite-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) has varied histopathological manifestations such as cortical necrosis, tubular necrosis (ATN), and interstitial nephritis. However, snake renal medullary angiitis rarely been reported. We describe a nine-year-old child with AKI following viperine biopsy revealed pigment cast nephropathy, ATN angiitis.
