Most commonly affecting the long bones of children and adolescents, SBCs can be asymptomatic or associated with pain or fractures. Multifocal SBCs, featuring multiple cysts across different bones, are exceptionally rare and pose unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Here, we report an exceptional case of a 20-year-old woman with multifocal SBCs affecting 9 known anatomical sites and discuss the unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. CASE REPORT A 20-year-old woman presented with right proximal tibia pain after a fall. Radiographs and MRI revealed radiolucent lesions in the proximal tibia, distal tibia, and fibula, with additional lesions identified on whole-body scintigraphy in the left proximal and distal tibia, left proximal humerus, and pelvis. Initial biopsy was suggestive of SBCs but inconclusive, and surgical biopsy was required for definitive diagnosis. Histologic evaluation confirmed SBCs, demonstrating cyst walls, cholesterol clefts, and fibrin-like deposits. Treatment included curettage, local adjuvant therapy with argon beam and doxycycline, bone grafting, and doxycycline sclerotherapy for pelvic and distal extremity lesions. At 17 months after treatment, the patient remained asymptomatic, with imaging showing sclerosis and near-complete resolution of the lesions. CONCLUSIONS This report presented a rare case of a young woman with multiple SBCs across 9 anatomical sites. Overall, the management of multifocal SBCs requires a multidisciplinary approach, involving orthopedic surgeons, radiologists, and pathologists for optimal outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":39064,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Case Reports","volume":"26 ","pages":"e946165"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11843777/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143434180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is crucial to identify the clues that might precede high-risk PE in resuscitated SCA. The presence of right bundle branch block (RBBB) with a QR pattern in V1 on the electrocardiogram (ECG) has a high positive predictive value for diagnosing cardiac arrest caused by high-risk PE. Therefore, we present a case study of SCA caused by high-risk PE. CASE REPORT A 44-year-old woman with no medical history presented to the emergency room due to SCA. The first ECG showed sinus tachycardia and RBBB with a QR pattern in V1. The clinical manifestations, particularly the abnormal ECG findings, led to the consideration of high-risk PE. Urgent thrombolytic therapy was administered before confirmation with computed tomographic pulmonary angiogram (CTPA). The patient was eventually diagnosed with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome and treated with warfarin. CONCLUSIONS RBBB with a QR pattern in V1 on ECG has a high positive predictive value for the diagnosis of cardiac arrest caused by high-risk PE. Furthermore, the presence of a QR pattern in V1 performs as an independent predictor for high-risk PE patients who may require advanced treatments, including systemic thrombolysis or invasive embolectomy.

We describe this clinical presentation after MP-CPC with diagnostic challenges. We provide an approach to how a proper diagnosis was reached and highlight the importance of preoperative assessment of corneal surface health in patients at risk. CASE REPORT A 36-year-old diabetic woman was referred to our cornea clinic for a new onset of a ring infiltrate in her right eye, after undergoing MP-CPC for an uncontrolled neovascular glaucoma. She had no pain or discharge, but was bothered by photophobia. After obtaining a proper medical history, best corrected visual acuity was 3/200 in the affected eye, corneal sensitivity was reduced, and slit lamp examination showed a large inferior corneal epithelial defect with a peripheral anterior stromal ring infiltrate. Corneal scrapings were obtained and differential diagnoses were excluded until a proper diagnosis of NK was reached. As conservative medical treatment with prophylactic antibiotics and frequent lubricating eye drops failed to achieve complete healing of the epithelial defect, amniotic membrane grafting was performed and resulted in complete healing with residual corneal scarring. CONCLUSIONS Neurotrophic keratopathy presenting as a corneal ring infiltrate can be confused with infectious keratitis and result in diagnostic challenges. As cases of NK after MP-CPC are more frequently reported, a routine preoperative assessment of corneal sensation is recommended, especially in patients at risk, such as diabetics. Preoperative counselling, customized treatment protocols such as shortening the treatment time, and close monitoring of postoperative ocular surface health should be implemented following MP-CPC to prevent the occurrence of serious ocular complications such as corneal scarring, melting, or perforation.</p>","PeriodicalId":39064,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Case Reports","volume":"26 ","pages":"e945852"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11833512/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143415524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to its rarity, the literature provides only weak evidence concerning their clinical course and treatment options. This report describes a 37-year-old man suffering from a multifocal, bilateral malignant testicular LCCSCT presenting as painless testicular masses. CASE REPORT A 37-year-old man presented with bilateral painless testicular masses. Imagery showed bilateral macro-orchitis with multifocal intratesticular hyperechoic and hypointense lesions. He underwent testis-sparing surgery with the enucleation of 1 testicular lesion. The anatomopathological analysis revealed an LCCSCT whose histological characteristics indicated a benign tumor.

CASE REPORT A 56-year-old previously healthy man presented to the Emergency Department with acute vision loss in his left eye. Four weeks before admission, he had an upper respiratory tract infection and received a diagnosis of VZV infection, based on skin examination and medical history. On ophthalmological examination in our hospital, the left eye showed exudative retinal detachment with necrotizing retinitis and profound uveitis. Blood tests for infectious diseases and opportunistic infections were performed. Intravenous antiviral treatment was started empirically, due to high suspicion of ARN.

The disease is characterized by rapid progression and the absence of effective treatment options, making it particularly devastating. Among its various subtypes, sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is the most common in humans. Diagnosing CJD before death is challenging due to its nonspecific symptoms and the difficulty in distinguishing it from other neurodegenerative conditions. CASE REPORT We detail the initial presentation of a 58-year-old woman with suspected sCJD, highlighting the atypical symptoms and prolonged survival. The uniqueness of this case lies in the fact that, despite the patient exhibiting relatively typical clinical features, all laboratory and examination results for CJD consistently returned negative. This led to the patient being transferred between multiple departments, including psychiatry, during the early stages of the disease, making it difficult to receive a correct diagnosis and treatment. The patient's journey through various medical consultations underscores the complexity of diagnosing such a rare condition. It illustrates the importance of a holistic approach that considers both clinical presentation and supplementary examinations. CONCLUSIONS Excessive reliance on supplementary examinations, coupled with insufficient awareness of sCJD across multiple clinical departments and a lack of attentiveness to clinical symptoms, culminated in a misdiagnosis as a psychiatric disorder.
