Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) placement is increasingly being used in lieu of surgery for multiple procedures, including transmural fluid drainage. However, few studies have evaluated adverse events (AEs) associated with LAMS placement. Our aim was to characterize the rates AEs several strategies across different procedures and indications. A single-center retrospective cross-sectional study conducted on patients who underwent EUS-guided between 2015...
This retrospective study aims to evaluate the safety of everolimus when used as part immunosuppression regimen in patients who underwent liver transplant from 2009 2019 at a tertiary center. Patients were divided into two groups: those received post-transplant and did not. The primary outcome measured was development new pulmonary complications that had been associated with use prior studies. Lung function determined by tests if available or CT scans chest. Secondary outcomes included...
Carcinomatous pericarditis is a rare complication of locally aggressive breast cancer in which malignant cells directly extend into the pericardium causing inflammation and creating pericardial effusion. A 40-year-old woman with untreated metastatic presented to an outpatient clinic significant distress symptoms progressive shortness breath bilateral leg swelling. An urgent echocardiogram demonstrated large effusion echocardiographic evidence cardiac tamponade. She underwent emergent...
Background and study aims Endoscopic resection of lesions involving the appendiceal orifice is technically challenging commonly referred for surgical resection. However, post-resection appendicitis a concern. Many studies have varying rates post-procedure appendicitis. We aim to report rate by performing systematic review meta-analysis. Methods Studies that involved use full-thickness device (FTRD) management polyps were included. The primary outcome was after FTRD subgroup analysis...
Shrinking lung syndrome (SLS) is a rare pulmonary complication of autoimmune conditions. It has been sparsely described in the literature and its pathophysiology remains unclear. SLS typically reported patients with history systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who present shortness breath chest pain associated breathing. Chest imaging demonstrates no alveolar, interstitial, or pleural abnormalities. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are characterized by restrictive pattern reduced volumes....
Hypersplenism, portal hypertension, and ascites have been seen after liver transplants. Patients are usually treated medically with refractory patients potentially undergoing splenectomy. Splenic artery embolism (SAE) is an alternative that can be performed to limit the surgical intervention may benefit of improving hypertension. Few studies studied effect on main vein (MPV) velocities hepatic resistive indices (HARIs) which beneficial as markers hypertension.This study aims evaluate...
Solitary fibrous tumors are very rare in the pleura, and they generally found incidentally. Even though can potentially become malignant metastasize, have minimal clinical symptoms still be benign. Due to low incidence of these tumors, there is no standard therapy beyond surgical resection. We present an asymptomatic case a large, rapidly expanding solitary tumor pleura elderly female.
Metastatic seminoma to the pancreas is exceedingly rare, with few reported cases in medical literature. We present a case of 66-year-old male, six years post-remission from testicular seminoma, who presented obstructive jaundice and pancreatic mass mimicking primary malignancy. Diagnostic workup including endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy confirmed metastatic seminoma. He underwent successful treatment four cycles cisplatin etoposide, achieving complete remission. This underscores...
Metastasis to the stomach is a rare occurrence, especially from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We report case of 76-year-old man with history RCC, in remission for 11 years postnephrectomy, who presented gastrointestinal symptoms, was found have 2 cm gastric mass confirmed as metastatic RCC. Endoscopic submucosal dissection attempted, but due hypervascular nature mass, hybrid endoscopic performed, achieving complete resection. Follow-up at 7 months showed no recurrence, highlighting potential...

Calciphylaxis is a rare dermatologic condition that primarily associated with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Nonuremic calciphylaxis has been reported in patients autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus and other hypercoagulable states anti-phospholipid syndrome. New research throughout the COVID-19 pandemic shown an increased inflammatory coagulopathic complication of COVID-19. We present case patient nonuremic following treatment for severe no known cause...
Background: Sweet's Syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a rare inflammatory skin disorder that presents rapid onset of tender, lesions, which usually appear on the arms, face, and neck.It histologically characterized by infiltrate in dermis with karyorrhexis massive papillary dermal edema.Sweet's subdivided into three classifications based etiology: classical, malignancy-associated, drug-induced.Case Presentation: We present case 55 year old African American...
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of emergent ophthalmologic surgeries in an ambulatory surgery center (ASC) care setting compared to routine performed ASC. Methods:A retrospective cohort study at a single ASC included analysis surgical cases non-emergent cases.Data was provided by searching ophthalmology practice's case management database.An defined as any starting after 5:00 pm or completed during weekend on-call hours.Cases that were delayed and ran over time limit excluded.The then...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is an increasingly prevalent condition in the United States and world. Numerous screening tools have been created to help prevent identify early cases of CRC, which led better outcomes for patients. These range from stool tests more invasive procedures like a colonoscopy. With this array options, patients are often presented with bevy choices their primary care clinic may difficulty understanding difference between treatment. Popular culture has also influenced these...
