Acute kidney injury increases mortality in cirrhotic patients by four fold. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) for differential diagnosis acute and predicting short-term patients.We enrolled 94 decompensated cirrhosis. uNGAL was measured upon hospital admission all patients. Patients with tract infection anuria were excluded. followed 30 days or until death.Ten (9%) had normal function, 9 (11.37%) stable chronic disease,...
Evaluation of mediastinal lymphadenopathy (MLA) is a great diagnostic challenge considering the myriad causes. In recent years, role endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has been greatly extended in evaluation MLA due to its safety, reliability, and accuracy. The present study details EUS-guided-fine-needle aspiration/fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) unknown origin.Seventy-two patients (34 men) with etiology were studied. Mediastinum was evaluated linear echoendoscope FNA/FNB performed 22-G needle...
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), despite being uncommon, is on the rise in elderly population. However, no study from India has described natural history and treatment outcome of AIH elderly. The aim was to characteristics population compare them with younger population.Patients a diagnosis based revised International Hepatitis Group (IAIHG) criteria were recruited January 2011 June 2018. Patients defined as when ≥ 60 years young < age. Clinical, serological, histological follow-up until 12...
This was single-center, open-label, randomized trial. Patients who were undergoing ERCP and at high risk for the development of PEP selected study. into 3 treatment groups: diclofenac suppository group, RL a combination group.Eight 57 patients (14.03%) in 9 (15.78%) 6 (10.52%) group developed PEP. The incidence between three groups not statistically significant (P = 0.70). Serum amylase level >252 U/L had 91.3% sensitivity 92.6% specificity diagnosis PEP.Post-ERCP pancreatitis is usually...
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute inflammatory process of the pancreas with variable clinical presentations. Splanchnic venous thrombosis a well-known vascular complication AP and commonly present as splanchnic system: splenic vein (SplV), portal (PV) superior mesenteric (SMV), either separately or in combinations. Involvement extra-splanchnic vessels rare associated morbidity mortality. Vascular complications are late phenomena usually local AP, namely fluid collections, necrotizing...
Intestinal angina refers to abdominal pain resulting from reduced mesenteric blood flow. Although atherosclerosis is the most common cause, large vessel vasculitis emerging as one of causes. We have reported a case an 18-year-old female who presented with classical symptoms intestinal angina. On evaluation, patient was found aortic aneurysm compromised supply. She started on steroids and methotrexate along anti-platelets anticoagulants. improved following treatment didn't any complaints follow-up.
Introduction: Congenital common bile duct (CBD) webs are extremely rare abnormalities of the extra hepatic ducts with approximately 10 cases reported in literature. The age at presentation and clinical symptomatology these anomalies depend on grade biliary obstruction. These usually exhibit early life as obstructive jaundice, dilation proximal tree or even spontaneous perforation duct. Some congenital partially developed remain asymptomatic until adulthood. Case Report: 28 year female...
The use of anabolic steroids is widespread, particularly among bodybuilders.

Abstract Background Pancreaticopleural fistulas are among the rarest complications of chronic pancreatitis. The main objective research, conducted on a total seven patients, was to evaluate effectiveness early endoscopic management pancreaticopleural fistula. Methods diagnosis fistula reached when fistulous tract demonstrated imaging studies and/or pleural fluid amylase level greater than 2,000 U/L. data were retrospectively analyzed from records. Results prototype patient in our series...
Liver involvement in Graves’ disease can be seen as a part of autoimmune process or rarely, due to the direct effects thyrotoxicosis on liver. Hyperthyroidism also have gastrointestinal manifestations like frequent bowel movements, diarrhoea, even malabsorption with steatorrhoea. We report 36-year-old man hyperthyroidism, presenting cholestatic jaundice and persistent small diarrhoea. He was diagnosed after ruling out more common causes, cause supposed disease. Considering this possibility,...
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 20-50% of patients with cirrhosis and is associated a poor prognosis. The aim the study to identify baseline factors affecting mortality these at 30 90 days. Methods: We enrolled 117 AKI followed them up prospectively. Results: Distribution International club ascites stages was: 26 (22.03%) stage 1, 59 (50%) 2, 33 (28%) 3. Mortalities days were 27 (22.8%) (27.9%) respectively. On multivariate analysis, variables serum creatinine level>2 mg% 48...
Hepatic space occupying lesions in childhood are a diagnostic challenge, as they caused by variety of malignant and nonmalignant disorders with different prognosis and, course, treatment. They often misdiagnosed or diagnosed only after surgical resection. A 14-year-old boy presented abdominal pain, evening-rise fever loss appetite weight. The patient also developed jaundice 2 months above symptoms. Ultrasound the abdomen showed an irregular infiltrative mass segment IV liver. Gadobenate...
Hepatitis-B is a health problem of global importance. India falls in the low intermediate endemicity zone (prevalence rate 2-4%) for hepatitis-B virus infection. Intrafamilial transmission HBV has an important role maintaining our country. Here we report interesting case intrafamilial clustering infection from western India. Out 14 family members, 12 members (85.7%) were infected (overt or occult). This highlights that vertical also route transmission. Screening and contacts HBsAg positive...
