RESUMEN
We report a12-year-old child with pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) whose mother had pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism. The child had low serum calcium, high phosphorous and high parathormone (PTH) levels. PHP occurs due to a defect in the guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein). She also had hypothyroidism which is known to utilize the G protein pathway. She developed T 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) while under follow-up. This is arguably the first time T1DM has been reported associated with PHP.
RESUMEN
Rhinoscleroma, also known as Mikulicz disease, is a chronic progressive disease caused by Klebsiella rhinoscleromatis. The disease is uncommon in Delhi. There are no cytological references of this disease. We describe the cytological features which should alert the pathologist to rule out this entity, which needs to be treated early. Immunohistochemistry on histopathological material is a useful adjunct to the diagnosis.
