ABSTRACT

We diagnosed a case of Takayasu arteritis (TA) involving subclavian arteries, the aorta, superior mesenteric artery and renal arteries presenting with stenotic, occlusive, and aneurysmal lesions along with mural thrombus, which responded well to ATD and steroids. We report this case as a rare combination of vascular lesions in a patient with a relatively rare variant of TA.

ABSTRACT

Leptospirosis is a potentially fatal disease which can cause multi-organ dysfunction. It can have different rare presentations. Acute pancreatitis is one such rare gastrointestinal manifestation which present as an acute abdomen. Simultaneous presence of features of both acute pancreatitis and acute hyponatremia in a case of Weil's disease characterised by combination of jaundice, acute kidney injury, hypotension and hemorrhagic manifestation is very rare.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Dengue, an acute viral disease, transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, has a variable clinical spectrum ranging from asymptomatic infection to life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. However, neurological complications, in general, are unusual but have been observed more frequently in the recent past, and some studies highlighted varied neurological complications during the course of illness. Although dengue is classically considered a nonneurotropic virus, there is increasing evidence for dengue viral neurotropism. In this study, we have evaluated clinico-radiological profile and outcome of nine serologically confirmed dengue patients having varied manifestations of central nervous system (CNS) involvement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All the consecutive patients presented with neurological complications with positive serology for dengue infection (IgM positivity) in Department of Medicine, in a tertiary care hospital in Eastern India from August 2013 to October 2014 were included in the study. These patients were subjected to a detailed clinical evaluation, laboratory assessment including complete hemogram, coagulation profile, liver function test, serum electrolytes, and routine CSF (Cerebrospinal Fluid) study with the exclusion of other common neuroinvasive pathogens. RESULTS: Out of 9 patients with neurological complications associated with confirmed dengue infection, 2 (22%) patients had dengue encephalopathy, 5 (56%) patients have dengue encephalitis, 1 (11%) patient had dengue meningitis, and 1 (11%) patient had postdengue immune-mediated CNS involvement. CONCLUSION: This case series reaffirms the occurrence of varied CNS manifestations in dengue virus infection and underlines the importance of inclusion of dengue in the differential diagnosis of acute encephalitis syndrome.
