RESUMEN
Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are very uncommon, though when seen, they are typically found within the gastrointestinal tract. Rarely NETs can be seen within the lumen of the gallbladder. An 83-year-old woman presented to our hospital with vague abdominal pain and distention. She was found to have a mass within her gallbladder on imaging, and she was treated with surgical resection. Pathology revealed a gallbladder NET with lymphovascular involvement. NETs of the gallbladder remain a rare occurrence with a limited number of previous case reports.
RESUMEN
A 21-year-old female developed bilateral acute-onset paracentral scotomas three days after receiving the second dose of her Moderna COVID-19 vaccination. A clinical diagnosis of acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) was confirmed after classic findings were demonstrated on near-infrared reflectance imaging, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography, and colored fundus photography. The patient presented with visual acuity of 20/100-1 OD and 20/20 OS. After treatment with brimonidine and difluprednate, at a two-week follow-up, her visual acuity was 20/100-2 OD and 20/25-2 OS. There have been reported cases of AMN following flu-like illnesses as well as after receiving vaccines. However, this is the first report of AMN following vaccination with a Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
