A Unique Case Report of Complete Left Main Coronary Artery Occlusion in a 24-Year-Old Male.

A 24-year-old male presented to hospital following syncope with electrocardiographic changes and was found to have left main coronary artery occlusion requiring emergent coronary artery bypass grafting.

Bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions: Case report detailing successful treatment with timely mechanical thrombectomy.

Bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusion is a very rare and dangerous pathology, accounting for less than 1% of stroke presentations. Unless treated, the natural course of the disease leads to coma or death and thus is extremely important to be detected early and managed appropriately. We present the case of a 69-year-old lady who woke with right-sided weakness and was found to have a left middle cerebral artery stroke on arrival to her local hospital, which progressed to bilateral paresis and dysarthria whilst on transfer to a tertiary hospital for definitive management. The patient underwent emergent mechanical thrombectomy of bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions and made a complete recovery. This case emphasis the importance of the early recognition of rare bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions and demonstrates that timely and effective treatment can have favorable outcomes for patients.

Regression of a solitary osteochondroma of the distal humerus in a toddler following trauma.

Osteochondromas are bone exostoses, with the vast majority extending from the metaphyseal region of long bones and are capped by cartilage. A review of the current literature reveals spontaneous regression of osteochondromas is a rarely documented event, with all but two of these recorded events resolving before skeletal maturity and within 6 years of identification. We present a case of trauma-induced resolution of a solitary osteochondroma after less than 3 months in a 15-month-old male, with a review of current literature.
