A 40-year-old white male with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia presented to our institution with symptoms of fever, rash and pleuropericardial pain. A two-dimensional echocardiogram revealed a pedunculated left ventricular mass which simulated a left ventricular myxoma. Left ventricular wall motion and
Agnogenic myeloid metaplasia (AMM) is one of the myeloproliferative disorders, and is usually accompanied by extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) in various organs, mainly in the liver, spleen and lymph nodes. Extramedullary hematopoiesis and/or leukemic transformation of EMH in the pleura is a rare
Nephrogenic adenoma, also referred to nephrogenic metaplasia, is a benign proliferative lesion of urothelium, usually associated with chronic physical stimuli or inflammation. Familial Mediterranean fever is an inherited autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent short episodes of fever.
A 60-year-old man with a one-year history of agnogenic myeloid metaplasia was admitted to the hospital because of fever and a skin eruption. He had fever, anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, and a raised painful erythematous plaque in the face. The same kind of skin lesion developed thereafter at a
Myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM) is an uncommon disorder in young individuals, for whom haemopoietic stem cell transplantation offers the only possibility of cure. However, although the latter procedure is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, the clinical course of MMM is
In 78 patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM) the serum procollagen III peptide activity (s-PIIIP) had a higher mean value than in 22 normal adult volunteers (22.5 v. 10 ng/ml). Nevertheless, 21.8% of the patients had s-PIIIP within the 95th percentile of the normal control group
BACKGROUND
Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XPN), a rare form ofchronicpyelonephritis, is commonly associated with lithiasis and rarely leads to keratinizing squamous metaplasia. Its manifestations closely mimic those of a renal neoplasm, leading to misdiagnosis of malignancy, often resulting in
Patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM) often experience debilitating constitutional symptoms such as drenching night sweats, profound fatigue, unexplained fevers, and unintentional weight loss. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) contributes to organ fibrosis and hypercatabolic symptoms
BACKGROUND
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), also inherited with autosomal recessive trait, is characterized by recurrent episodes of fever, arthritis, and serositis. Congenital Byler Syndrome (Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis) inherited with autosomal recessive trait and
Systemic amyloidosis is one of the serious complications of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF). Amyloid accumulation secondary to FMF can cause pressure symptoms in thyroid gland rarely. A 17-year-old male patient with the diagnosis of FMF performed the complaints of dyspnea during his follow-up
OBJECTIVE
Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital cystic malformations of the lung. We retrospectively analyzed ten cases of bronchogenic cyst (BC) to reinforce the importance of recognizing this malformation.
METHODS
Between 1985 and 2000, ten pediatric patients with BC were treated surgically in
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) caused by new corona--virus SARS-Co-V was not identified at humans and animals up to this time. A characteristic feature of this disease is biphasic course. First high fever, parainfluenza syndrome followed by increasing respiratory distress. The main role in
Neurenteric cysts are extremely rare congenital anomalies, often presenting in the first 5 years of life, and are caused by an incomplete separation of the notochord from the foregut during the third week of embryogenesis. They are frequently accompanied with spinal or gastrointestinal
Autologous transplantation after myeloablation for myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia provides a palliative therapy with a long term relief of symptoms. We have transplanted three patients with more than 5 x 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg body weight after myeloablation with treosulfan (total dose 42
Chronic nephrolithiasis predisposes to squamous metaplasia and subsequently SCC which is a rare malignancy of the upper urinary tract. A 60-year-old woman with a long standing history of renal calculi presented with flank pain and fever. Investigations revealed a mass in the superior pole of a non
