Among atypical underlying causes, intracranial hypotension has been reported in few cases. We present what we believe to be another case of PRES possibly associated with intracranial hypotension, in absence of other known contributing factors. A 68-year-old woman with a dural tear was treated with lumbar liquor drainage and judged to have been cured. Three weeks later she suddenly presented with somnolence, agitation and disorientation. Brain MR showed hyperdense cortico-subcortical FLAIR lesions predominately in both occipital lobes. None of the typical predisposing factors were present. During the following 4 weeks the symptoms regressed significantly without any treatment, with follow up MRI also showing a clear remission of the hyperintense lesions in the temporal and occipital lobes. Data from individual cases suggest that intracranial hypotension may lead to PRES-like radiological patterns. Further observations are necessary to confirm this hypothesis and establish a pathological theory that would bind the two entities. The working theory could be based on compensatory vein dilatation and stagnation of venous flow leading to cytotoxic edema.","PeriodicalId":92691,"journal":{"name":"Mathews journal of case reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49047002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Child-Pugh score calculated was Class B (9 points). Abdominal ultrasound completed with hepatic CT angioscan showed a three centimeters mass of the hepatic dome with a typical vascular kinetic of hepatocellular carcinoma (Figure 1). Patient underwent chemoembolization with complete initial response. One year later, he was hospitalized for headache, dizziness, right hemiparesia and loss of hearing. Cerebral CT scan objectified a hypodense centimetric lesion in the frontal wall in contact with the posterior horn of the lateral ventricle raised after injection of contrast medium associated with perilesional edema (Figure 2). Neurosurgical approach was recused because of underlying cirrhosis with high risk anesthesia.

Clinical case: A 31-year-old female with generalized abdominal pain without peritoneal irritation accompanied by vomiting and loose bowel movements.

Discussion: The clinical diagnosis of mesenteric ischemia is difficult, and in most cases the abdominal pain is the cardinal symptom. The basis of the proper treatment of this entity is: early diagnosis, resection of the damaged intestine, restoration surgical blood flows or nonsurgical, second-look laparotomy and support of the ICU, as handled case described here.","PeriodicalId":92691,"journal":{"name":"Mathews journal of case reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42487804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They run with two phases; a period of proliferation (in the first 4 and 6 months of age, although it can last up to 18 months) and then one of involution (over the course of the years, which is complete in 50% of childhood hemangiomas at the age of five years-old and 70% at the age of seven years-old). Clinical cases: Seven patients with a clinical diagnosis of benign hemangioma of childhood. The recommended treatment period was nine months. Two cases presented early improvement at the 5th month of treatment and the rest completed the proposed 9th month schedule, observing a clear improvement in the lesions. At the end of the treatment, one patient required cosmetic surgery of the lesion in the right hemithorax, a procedure that was carried out without complications. The other three cases corresponded to: male six month old back injury; female 1 year lesion in the neck and supraciliary region of the left eye; and 2-year-old female with neck injury 1 month of propranolol treatment 2 mg/kg/day. Discussion: The use of propranolol has been a priority for the treatment of childhood hemangiomas, its discovery to induce the regression of a facial infantile hemangioma, was while treating a patient with obstructive cardiomyopathy who was administered propranolol, discovery by the group of Leauté-Lebréze in 2008.","PeriodicalId":92691,"journal":{"name":"Mathews journal of case reports","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48976747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
