Variants in CLCN4, which encodes the chloride/hydrogen ion exchanger CIC-4 prominently expressed brain, were recently described to cause X-linked intellectual disability and epilepsy. We present detailed phenotypic information on 52 individuals from 16 families with CLCN4-related disorder: 5 affected females 2 males a de novo variant CLCN4 (6 previously unreported) 27 males, 3 15 asymptomatic female carriers 9 inherited variants (4 unreported). Intellectual ranged borderline profound....
Pulmonary artery intimal sarcoma (PAIS) is a rare malignancy which closely mimics acute or chronic pulmonary thromboembolism. There are clinical and radiological characteristics may raise suspicion of this important differential diagnosis. These include disproportionately low d-dimer, troponin T NT-proBNP, as well characteristic findings on CT angiography such the 'wall eclipsing sign' an non-dependent position filling defects in large arteries. Prompt diagnosis avoids inappropriate...
In patients with hypertension secondary to aldosterone secreting adrenal adenomas, medical and surgical treatments are both well described, trans-catheter arterial embolization an uncommon form of therapy, currently. where therapy has not provided sufficient response, is deemed appropriate, aldosteronomas shown promise in a number case series. We present the 69-year-old man refractory be candidate for laparoscopic adrenalectomy. The patient underwent successful selective functional adenoma,...
Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a rare peritoneal malignancy characterized by the progressive accumulation of mucinous material and tumour within abdomen pelvis. Percutaneous drainage mucin may be non-surgical option for relief symptoms; however, it remains difficult due to high viscosity mucin, with numerous case reports reporting difficulty removing through medium-bore catheters alone. BromAc therapy currently undergoing development which dissolves masses allows extraction. This report describes...
Sic Vos Non Vobis (‘For You, But Not Yours’) were the words Vergil wrote on Emperor Augustus’ palace doorpost, when Bathyllus, another poet, had plagiarised his work lavishing praise emperor Augustus.1 In famous retribution, he quipped bees do not produce honey for themselves, but others. maybe it is time a change? Interventional radiology (IR) and interventional neuroradiology (INR) have recognition branding problem. There confusion about their identity only amongst public also our medical...
We present the case of a 17 years old girl with per rectal haemorrhage secondary to pelvic arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and potentially haemorrhoids. Pelvic AVMs are rare extremely variable in their clinical presentation, size location pose therapeutic challenge. Focus has turned towards interventional radiological procedures angioembolisation as main treatment form for AVMs. A presented rural hospital significant bleeding requiring transfer tertiary centre radiology capabilities....
Intrahepatic bile leaks secondary to disconnected hepatic segments following liver resection can be difficult treat [1]. There are only isolated reports of successful endoscopic management [2] [3]. We present the case a 41-year-old woman with colorectal cancer and secondaries who received segment IVb multisegment microwave ablation. Surgery was complicated by biliary sepsis large leak. Baseline cross-sectional imaging retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) established presence surgically...
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes cancer-associated morbidity and mortality in world, with lower survival rates when metastases are present. We present a case 69-year-old man, diagnosed metastatic rectal to lungs 2015. Over course 5 years, he was treated 4 microwave ablation procedures both his lungs. Despite this, does not have any local recurrence or symptoms since first 7 years ago. This highlights potential for be used curative intent pulmonary colorectal as an alternative...
