Recurrent Pneumonia due to Fibrosing Mediastinitis in a Teenage Girl: A Case Report with Long-Term Follow-Up

A teenage girl was evaluated for recurrent right pneumonia. The evaluation revealed a calcified mediastinal mass that compressed the right intermediate and middle lobar bronchi, as well as the right pulmonary artery and veins. The clinical picture together with imaging studies and borderline positive serology testing suggested a diagnosis of fibrosing mediastinitis associated with histoplasmosis. This rare condition is characterized by the local proliferation of invasive fibrous tissue within the mediastinum due to a hyperimmune reaction to Histoplasma capsulatum. Antifungal and anti-inflammatory therapies are usually ineffective, and surgical intervention contains a high morbidity risk. Palliative surgery and stenting of the compressed airway have been suggested. In the past, the prognosis was thought to be poor, but recent studies demonstrate a more positive outcome. Our patient had been radiologically and functionally stable under follow-up for over thirteen years and has married and delivered two healthy children, both following an uneventful pregnancy.

Skull Base Osteomyelitis from Otitis Media Presenting as the Collet-Sicard Syndrome

Skull base osteomyelitis can involve the jugular foramen and its associated cranial nerves resulting in specific clinical syndromes. The Collet-Sicard syndrome describes the clinical manifestations of palsies involving cranial nerves IX, X, XI, and XII. We present a rare atypical case of skull base osteomyelitis originating from infection of the middle ear and causing the Collet-Sicard syndrome. Caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae, this occurred in an elderly diabetic man subsequent to retention of a cotton swab in an ear with chronic suppurative otitis media. This case report illustrates the possibility of retained cotton swabs contributing to the development of otitis media, skull base osteomyelitis, and ultimately the Collet-Sicard syndrome in the ears of immune-compromised patients with chronically perforated eardrums.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae-related erythema multiforme: clinical and histological features. A single center series of 33 cases compared to 100 cases induced by other causes

Clinical aspects of Mycoplasma pneumoniae-related erythema multiforme (MP-EM) have been poorly described, MP-EM has a distinctive presentation compared with non-MP EM with diffuse atypical targets, and severe and extensive mucositis. Histology is similar to toxic epidermal necrolysis. Mucosal involvement management is essential in MP-EM to prevent possible sequelae.

IntroductionSurgical repair of the tympanic membrane, termed a type one tympanoplasty is a tried and tested treatment modality. Overlay or underlay technique of tympanoplasty is common. Sandwich Tympanoplasty is the combined overlay and underlay grafting of tympanic membrane.ObjectiveTo describe and evaluate the modified sandwich graft (mediolateral double layer graft) tympanoplasty using temporalis fascia and areolar fascia. To compare the clinical and audiological outcome of modified sandwich tympanoplasty with underlay tympanoplasty.MethodsA total of 88 patients of chronic otitis media were studied. 48 patients (Group A) underwent type one tympanoplasty with modified sandwich graft. Temporalis fascia was underlaid and the areolar fascia was overlaid. 48 patients (Group B) underwent type one tympanoplasty with underlay fascia technique. 48 patients (Group C) underwent type one tympanoplasty with underlay cartilage technique. We assessed the healing and hearing results.ResultsSuccessful graft take up was accomplished in 47 patients (97.9%) in Group A, in 40 patients (83.3%) Group B, and in 46 (95.8%) patients in Group C. The average Air-Bone gap closure achieved in Group A was 24.4±1.7dB, in Group B, it was 22.5±3.5dB and in group C, it was 19.8±2.6dB. Statistically significant difference was found in graft healing rate. Difference in hearing improvement was not statistically significant.ConclusionDouble layered graft with drum-malleus as a 'meat' of sandwich maintains a perfect balance between sufficient stability and adequate acoustic sensitivity.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of high-dose corticosteroid (120mg prednisolone equivalent daily) in Bell's palsy compared with low-dose corticosteroid (60mg PSL equivalent).MethodsA single-center retrospective observational study was performed. We included adult Bell's palsy patients who were treated within 7days after disease onset. We compared high- and low-dose corticosteroid for the non-recovery rate at 6 months after disease onset using inverse probability-weighted propensity score analysis (IPW-PS).ResultsA total of 368 Bell's palsy patients (281 in the high-dose and 87 in the low-dose group) were included. The non-recovery rate without IPW-PS was 13.8% in the low-dose and 8.2% in the high-dose group. After IPW-PS adjustment, the non-recovery rate was 13.1% in the low-dose and 7.8% in the high-dose group (difference=−5.28%, 95% confidence interval [CI] −12.7% to −2.1%, p=0.040). High-dose corticosteroid decreased the non-recovery rate in severe Bell's palsy patients with a Yanagihara score of 0–10 (difference=−16.1%, 95% CI −38.5% to −6.2%, p=0.012), but did not decrease in moderate Bell's palsy patients with a Yanagihara score of 12–18 (difference=−2.0%, 95% CI −11.0% to 7.0%, p=0.591). Subgroup analysis revealed that the efficacy of high-dose corticosteroids was higher when patients were treated within 3days after disease onset, but not when patients were treated at 4days or later after disease onset.ConclusionsPhysicians would be better to treat severe Bell's palsy patients with high-dose corticosteroids when the patients are treated within 3days after disease onset.

Gender difference and laterality of sleep position

Publication date: June 2018
Source:Auris Nasus Larynx, Volume 45, Issue 3
Author(s): Hiroaki Ichijo, Miwaoki Akita
ObjectiveA higher incidence in women (approximately 7:3) and a predominant involvement of the right ear (approximately 7:5) are interesting features of BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo). It is speculated that these features are related to sleep position. The first aim of this study was to compare the frequency of position shifts during sleep between men and women. The second aim was to elucidate any differences in sleep position between men and women. The third aim was to clarify the laterality of sleep position.MethodsWe retrospectively selected the data of 30 males (mean, 53.1 years) and 22 females (mean, 50.6 years) diagnosed as mild or moderate obstructive sleep apnea. A position sensor was attached to the patient's anterior chest. Supine position was defined as less than 45° tilt, and lateral position was defined as more than 45° tilt. A single overnight laboratory polysomnography provided the number of position shifts, total sleep time, sleep time spent in the supine position (S), sleep time spent in the right-side-down lateral position (R), and sleep time spent in the left-side-down lateral position (L).ResultsThe mean value and standard deviation of the number of position shifts per hour was 2.4±1.3 in males, and 2.3±1.1 in females. There was no significant difference between males and females. Twelve cases (40%) were lateral type (S<R+L), and 18 (60%) were supine type (S>R+L) in males. Ten cases (45%) were lateral type, and 12 (55%) were supine type in females. There was no significant difference between males and females. Seventeen cases (56.6%) were right-dominant type (R−L>0), and 13 (43.3%) were left-dominant type (R−L<0) in males. Thirteen cases (59%) were right-dominant type, and 9 (41%) were left-dominant type in females.ConclusionBody position and the number of position shifts during sleep differ substantially between individuals. There is no gender difference in the frequency of position shifts. Although the supine type is more common than the lateral type, there is no gender difference in sleep position. Therefore, the reason of higher incidence in women is not related to sleep. The right-dominant type occurs more than the left-dominant type in both genders. It is possible that this behavior is the reason for the predominant involvement of the right ear in BPPV.

Schwannomas of the external auditory canal are extremely rare and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. Herein, we report a case of schwannoma of the external ear canal in a 41-year male. Clinicians should consider the possibility that the schwannoma may originate in the external auditory canal mimicking other more frequently observed lesions.

Infrahyoid involvement may be a high-risk factor in the management of non-odontogenic deep neck infection: Retrospective study

Publication date: Available online 16 March 2018
Source:American Journal of Otolaryngology
Author(s): Hui Yuan, Rong Gao
ObjectivesThis study sought to investigate the impact of involvement of the infrahyoid neck space on the management of non-odontogenic DNI.MethodEighty-one patients treated for non-odontogenic DNI over 5 years were retrospectively recruited into this study. Demographics, etiology, radiology results, treatments, duration/cost of hospital stay, and complications were recorded. Differences between DNIs with and without infrahyoid involvement, as defined based on an anatomical chart, were analyzed.ResultsSixty-two male and 19 female patients with a median age of 46.22 years were included. Fifteen patients had cellulitis, and 66 patients had abscesses. Streptococcus was the most commonly observed bacterium. Compared with DNIs only in suprahyoid spaces (n = 60, 74.07%), DNIs with infrahyoid space involvement (n = 21, 25.93%) were associated with higher incidences of the involvement of ≥3 spaces (85.71%, P = 0.000), mediastinitis (38.10%, P = 0.000), tracheostomy (28.57%, P = 0.008), surgery using a transcervical approach (66.67%, P = 0.000), and intensive care unit therapy (19.05%, P = 0.004), as well as longer hospital stays (16 days, P = 0.000) and higher costs ($2872, P = 0.000).ConclusionInfrahyoid involvement should be regarded as a high-risk factor in the management of deep neck infection (DNI). A relatively aggressive plan that includes transcervical surgery and tracheostomy should be considered at earlier stages for DNI with infrahyoid involvement.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae induces allergy by producing p1-specific IgE

Publication date: Available online 16 March 2018
Source:Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology
Author(s): Qing Ye, Jian-hua Mao, Qiang Shu, Shi-qiang Shang
BackgroundOur previous study found that most of MPP patients had elevated serum total IgE levels.ObjectiveThe purpose of this paper is to determine components of mycoplasma pneumoniae that can cause IgE increase in children, and to clarify its specific mechanism.MethodsThe components of MP cells were isolated by serum IgE from patients with MP pneumonia (MPP). These components obtained through the prokaryotic expression were used as allergens to detect the proportion of allergen-specific IgE produced in MPP patients, and the clinical characteristics and related immune parameters of these patients who produced this allergen-specific IgE were also analyzed. In addition, cell experiment was used to verify the biological effect of these components in vitro.ResultsP1-specific IgE was detected in serum of MPP children. An about 24-kDa polypeptide of P1 protein was obtained through prokaryotic expression purified by nickel agarose affinity chromatography. Approximately 9.2% of MPP patients produced IgE against this polypeptide of P1 protein, which was more likely to be produced in MPP patients with no history of allergies or family history of allergy-related diseases. P1-specific IgE-positive MPP patients had more severe clinical symptoms, with excessive secretion of IL-4 and IL-5 and over-differentiation of Th0 cells into Th2 cells. Tests also demonstrated that the P1 protein stimulated excessive secretion of IL-4 and IL-5 in PBMCs from the peripheral blood of healthy donors.ConclusionMP is not only an infectious agent but also an allergen for certain individuals. The P1 protein of MP can induce the production of P1-specific IgE.

ObjectivesDefinitive chemoradiation (CRT) for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OC-SCC) is often criticized for poor efficacy or toxicity. We describe a favorable 20-year experience of primary CRT for locally-advanced OC-SCC.Materials and MethodsPatients with locally-advanced, stage III/IV OC-SCC receiving primary concomitant CRT on protocols from 1994 to 2014 were analyzed. Chemotherapy included fluorouracil and hydroxyurea with other third agents. Radiotherapy (RT) was delivered once or twice daily to a maximum dose of 70–75 Gy. Intensity-modulated RT (IMRT) was exclusively used after 2004. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), locoregional control (LRC), and distant control (DC) were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared across treatment decades using the log-rank test. Rates of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) requiring surgery were compared across treatment decades using the Chi-square test.Results140 patients with locally-advanced OC-SCC were treated with definitive CRT. Of these, 75.7% had T3/T4 disease, 68.6% had ≥N2 nodal disease, and 91.4% had stage IV disease. Most common primary sites were oral tongue (47.9%) and floor of mouth (24.3%). Median follow-up was 5.7 years. Five-year OS, PFS, LRC, and DC were 63.2%, 58.7%, 78.6%, and 87.2%, respectively. Rates of ORN and long-term feeding tube dependence were 20.7% and 10.0%, respectively. Differences in LRC (P = 0.90), DC (P = 0.24), PFS (P = 0.38), OS (P = 0.10), or ORN (P = 0.38) were not significant across treatment decades.ConclusionDefinitive CRT is a viable and feasible strategy for organ preservation for patients with locally-advanced OC-SCC.

Thrombotic microangiopathy associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) comprises a process of sequential endothelial damage, microvascular thrombosis, consumptive thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia that can affect several organs, including the kidney. A 36-year-old woman was presented with a petechial rash 3 weeks after an upper respiratory tract infection. Laboratory results showed normocytic normochromic anaemia, thrombocytopenia and evidence of TMA with decreased haptoglobin, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase and a peripheral blood smear with numerous schistocytes. Treatment included daily plasmapheresis and prednisolone, with favourable clinical evolution. Antibodies anti-ADAMTS13 were positive, establishing the diagnosis of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. There was also serological evidence of a recent infection by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and therefore the preceding respiratory tract infection by this agent was the most likely trigger for the disease. Due to the high mortality rate and poor outcomes, the prompt diagnostic and treatment are crucial in this rare disease. The identification of triggers related to this pathology can allow new therapeutic targets or preventive strategies.

Fixed drug eruption associated with aspirin

Description

A previously healthy 27-year-old woman presented to the outpatient urgent care clinic complaining of dark spots that appeared suddenly on both her feet and face. She had been prescribed aspirin (650 mg orally every 6 hours as needed) the day prior to presentation as therapy for migraine-type headache. She also then recalled that these spots had appeared suddenly, in exactly the same areas approximately 1 year before the current episode, also associated with ingestion of an over-the-counter medication (Alka-Seltzer; aspirin/citric acid/sodium bicarbonate). Physical examination was unremarkable with the exception of dark, erythematous, slightly oedematous round plaques asymmetrically distributed over her feet (figure 1) and left eyelid (figure 2). A complete blood count was ordered (results within normal range), and the patient was advised to substitute aspirin with ibuprofen, which controlled her headache. The skin lesions subsided and disappeared without complications within 2 weeks. 1

Acute scrotum in setting of acute pancreatitis

Acute scrotum is a urologic emergency with many aetiologies. Acute scrotum in setting of acute pancreatitis is a rare occurrence and results from an effusion of pancreatic juices into the inguinal canal along a retroperitoneal tract. Knowledge regarding the existence of this obscure condition is essential for its diagnosis. It is thus important for medical professionals, particularly internists, surgical trainees and emergency physicians, to be aware of the condition and the options for its management.

Case of hepatic flexure ectopic pregnancy medically managed with methotrexate

Abdominal pregnancies represent 1.4% of extrauterine pregnancies. A literature search of six cases involving bowel ectopic pregnancies provided anecdotal treatment options. This case involves a woman admitted at 6 weeks gestation with right iliac fossa and shoulder tip pain. An ultrasound scan revealed an empty uterus with free fluid in both adnexa and a 31x21 mm heterogenous mass adjacent to the right ovary. At laparoscopy, an ectopic pregnancy was identified at the hepatic flexure. The patient received two doses of methotrexate and monitored until the beta human chorionic gonadotropin reduced. The decision to manage with methotrexate was balanced against reported cases of bowel perforation and the possibility that a section of bowel may need removal if the pregnancy showed signs of invasion. Maternal mortality rate with abdominal pregnancy is 20% due to the risk of massive haemorrhage from placental separation or invasion of bowel vasculature. Medical treatment here was successful and avoided extensive surgery.

Author Correction: Secukinumab Demonstrates Significantly Lower Immunogenicity Potential Compared to Ixekizumab

In the original publication, information regarding "ustekinumab" was incorrectly published under the Methods section. The correct information in the section "Antibodies and Control Protein" should be "(secukinumab, 150 mg/mL; ixekizumab, 90 mg/mL; adalimumab, 50 mg/mL; ustekinumab 90 mg/ml)". Infliximab, which is mentioned in that section, was not used in the study.
