Hiatal hernia (HH) is the herniation of elements abdominal cavity through esophageal hiatus diaphragm. A giant HH with pancreatic prolapse very rare and its causing pancreatitis an even more extraordinary condition. We describe a case 65-year-old man diagnosed acute secondary to herniation. In these cases, may be caused by diaphragmatic crura impinging upon pancreas leading repetitive trauma as it crosses hernia; intermittent folding main duct; ischemia associated stretching at vascular...

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection has been associated with malignancy, most notably hepatocellular carcinoma. Previous research shown that C is increased colorectal adenomas and neoplasia. Currently, there are no studies on the association of CHB adenomas. We aimed to identify a possible link between adenoma.A retrospective chart review was performed 588 consecutive patients undergoing screening or diagnostic colonoscopy were previously screened diagnosed B. Comparisons categorical...

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a prevalent malignancy with significant morbidity and mortality. Identifying potential premalignant lesions crucial for early detection effective management. Lichen planus (LP), chronic inflammatory disorder has been associated an increased risk of developing OSCC. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic importance p16 p53 expression in identifying LP as lesion Materials Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on archived tissue...

The gastrointestinal tract is the most common site in United States for extra-nodal lymphoma involvement. Primary colorectal involvement very rare, only accounting 0.3% of large intestine cancers. There has been a small increase incidence these high-risk patient populations which include IBD, Celiac disease, H. pylori and other autoimmune diseases. We report case 47 years old male with no risk factors, who presented to hospital non-specific signs symptoms. Imaging revealed cecal mass...

Background. Data examining the association between obesity and erosive esophagitis (ErE) have been inconsistent, with very little known about interracial variation. Goals. To examine ErE among patients of different ethnic/racial backgrounds. Methods.

Introduction: Epidemiologic studies suggest that diverticulosis may increase the risk for colorectal neoplasm. However, published data have been conflicting. The aim of this study is to investigate association between and adenomas. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional observational on 1,363 patients who underwent screening colonoscopies at Nassau University Medical Center from November 2009 March. Among these, 302 were identified as diverticulosis. Logistic regression model was assess...

Patients with can present abdominal pain, hematemesis, melena, perforation, obstruction. Diagnosis made a combination clinical, radiological, pathological findings. Treatment data limited due to cases reported. We case 47-year-old female who presented coffee-ground...

A BSTRACT Background: Pulpotomy is a common dental procedure used to treat extensively decayed primary teeth, aiming preserve the vitality and function of remaining pulp tissue. Various pulpotomy techniques materials have been developed, but their long-term outcomes in terms success rates complications remain subject ongoing research.

Introduction: Factors such as advanced age, male gender, and comorbidities, diabetes mellitus, are independent risk factors for poor bowel preparation. Studies have shown that diabetic patients a significantly poorer response to 6 Liters Golytely preparation compared non-diabetic patients, unfortunately correlation between varying levels of HbA1c with much larger sample size has not been investigated. Our aim in this retrospective study was find the following factors: Hba1c levels, body mass...

Purpose: Drug-induced autoimmune-like hepatitis (AIH) is an almost complete mimic of the classical AIH. The diagnosis based on same guidelines. One distinguishing feature that drug-induced AIH has acute onset, whereas classic commonly a more insidious onset. There female predominance. Statins have been increasingly associated with autoimmune reactions, including and lupus. A 35-year-old woman, no significant medical history, presented to our hospital one week nausea, generalized pruritus,...

Purpose: Telaprevir has been increasingly used in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavarin for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1. Skin rash is most common side effect telaprevir, as it can occur 56% patients, compared to 34% taking or alone. It usually mild nature, rarely a cause cessation. However, about 3.7% patient have reported severe rashes, sometimes requiring discontinuation medication. We present case drug-induced systemic eosinophilia (DRESS) syndrome...
