Laparoscopy was the surgical approach in 36 patients (62%) with a conversion in 8. Postoperative complications were seen in two patients (Clavien-Dindo II and IIIb). Conclusion Despite extensive diagnostic work-out an MD was recognized in only a few patients preoperatively. Laparoscopy was the surgical approach in two-thirds of the patients.Glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GN) is a nerve compression syndrome that presents with episodes of unilateral sharp, stabbing pain in the distribution of the ninth cranial nerve. This syndrome may present with cardiac and autonomic manifestations - a condition termed vagoglossopharyngeal neuralgia (VGPN). Most cases of VGPN arise from neurovascular insult at the cerebellopontine angle. Conservative treatment for VGPN includes antiepileptic medications. Surgical treatments include trigeminal tractotomy-nucleotomy, Gamma Knife® stereotactic radiosurgery, radiofrequency thermocoagulation, rhizotomy, and, as shown in this paper, endoscopic microvascular decompression (E-MVD). In this article, we present two cases. Case 1 demonstrates a 53-year-old male with right-sided GN symptoms that began to experience syncopal episodes 10-years after the initial presentation. Case 2 presents a 61-year-old female with a history of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and the malignant vasovagal syndrome that became associated with painful, shooting left anterior neck spasms consistent with GN. Both patients underwent E-MVD, leading to complete relief of neuralgia and cardiac symptoms. Our outcomes support previously published reports of successful treatment of VGPN using microvascular decompression (MVD) and describe a purely endoscopic surgical technique. MVD is the preferred treatment option for VGPN with evident neurovascular insult.Xia-Gibbs syndrome (XGS) is a rare genetic disorder that has been discovered as a distinct clinical entity in the recent past. The occurrence has been attributed to the mutation of AT Hook DNA binding motif Containing 1 (AHDC1) gene that is carried on chromosome 1p36. The concerned gene participates in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair apart from other crucial functions. The mutation results in dysfunction that leads to neurodevelopmental delay. The spectrum of manifestations constitutes intellectual disabilities, hypotonia, expressive language delay, sleep difficulties, and short stature. Dysmorphic facial features include depressed nasal bridge, hypertelorism, down-slanting or up-slanting palpebral fissures, horizontal eyebrows, dysplastic dentition, thin upper lip vermilion, and micrognathia. The phenotype is still expanding. The condition may range from mild to severe dysfunction depending on the area and site of genetic aberration but variation is evident. Thus, the correlation between genotype and phenp in provision of early and effective rehabilitation services for patients with XGS.Achalasia is a rare primary disorder of esophageal motility characterized by insufficient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation and loss of esophageal peristalsis. This results in patient complaints of dysphagia to solids and liquids, regurgitation, chest pain, and weight loss. However, achalasia may also present with respiratory symptoms, such as aspiration pneumonia, due to remarkable regurgitation. In untreated patients and a long period of evolution, respiratory symptoms may even be the initial manifestation of achalasia. An endoscopic finding of retained food and saliva with a puckered gastroesophageal junction or barium swallow showing dilated esophagus with birds beaking in a symptomatic patient should prompt appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. We describe an atypical presentation of a rare disease in a young man with a history of symptoms caused by the late manifestation of achalasia.Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is one of the most common thyroid malignancy with various histologic variants. Acknowledging the correct histological variant of PTC helps to know about the tumor's nature and prognosis. The Warthin-like variant of papillary thyroid (WLPTC), a newly described histologic variant of PTC, is relatively uncommon. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nx-1607.html A 16-year-old female presented with complaints of painful thyroid swelling for two years. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) from the lobes showed lymphocytic thyroiditis features with Hurthle cell change. Sections from the left lobe revealed a diagnosis of a Warthin‑like variant of PTC without nodal metastasis. WLPTC is a rare variant having a favorable outcome due to the absence of lymph node metastasis, extra-thyroidal extension, and a low recurrence rate. The correct cytological and histomorphological features are of utmost importance to render the diagnosis of WLPTC for better management.Backgrounds and aim Besides the clinical evidence supporting insulin resistance in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients, the exact mechanism elucidating insulin resistance is still under discussion. The present study aimed to observe any relationship between serum hepcidin, serum iron, and insulin resistance in CHC patients. Methodology A total of 54 individuals were recruited in this study, assorted into group A (CHC population with diabetes) and control group B (CHC population without diabetes). Both groups were tested for serum hepcidin, iron, ferritin, and serum glycemic indices (fasting blood glucose, serum insulin, and insulin resistance). Serum parameters were compared between diabetic and non-diabetic CHC patients by using the Mann-Whitney U test. Correlation analysis was done between serum hepcidin and serum iron, serum hepcidin, and insulin resistance, and serum iron and insulin resistance by applying the Spearman correlation test. Results Diabetic and non-diabetic CHC populations exhibited an iron profile of chronic illness, i.e., low serum iron and hepcidin along with normal ferritin levels. Also, the diabetic and non-diabetic CHC population exhibited normal serum insulin and insulin resistance. However, the fasting serum glucose of the diabetic CHC population was higher than normal. Correlation analysis indicated a negative significant correlation (rho=-0.404, p=0.036) between serum iron and insulin resistance among the diabetic CHC population. Conclusion Our study could not provide any mounting evidence in favor of insulin resistance in the chronic hepatitis C population via serum iron or hepcidin. Hepatitis C virus causing diabetes mellitus may have some etiology other than iron metabolism.
