Item type:Publication, OSMOTIC DEMYELINATION SYNDROME(Македонско лекарско друштво = Macedonian medical association, 2023-04-07); ; ; ;Risteski, FilipChalcheska, SlavicaAbstract. Osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) may be observed as a result of a rapid change in serum osmolarity, such as that induced by an overly rapid correction of serum sodium levels in hyponatraemic patients. Case presentation. We report a case of a 40-year-old male, first hospitalization through Emergency center (glucose 6.4 mmol/l. ECG: sinus rhythm, normal axis with SF 70/min.). Patient has electrolyte imbalance ,elevated liver enzymes, high enzyme activity predominantly of CK (6664) in relation to transaminase activity (AST 288, ALT 127), elevated CK, hyponatremia, hypokalemia and extremely low sodium = 95.Main complaints were muscle pain, muscle weakness, slurred speech, weakness, walk inability. Diagnostic findings. The diagnosis was confirmed by MRI 1,5T Simens Magnetom Essenca (brain) that showed large tipical inhomogeneous hypersignal lesion in the central pontine region on T2 weighted and FLER images with restriction of DWI. There is signal intensity of the basal ganglia nucleus lentiformis and and caudate cerebral nuclei on axial T2 weighted images and FLAIR images which were suggestive of CPM. Teaching points. Central pontine myelinolysis is an acute non-inflammatory demyelinating disorder.It is precipitated by the rapid correction of severe chronic hyponatraemia.Electrolyte abnormalities other than sodium should be investigated and rectified.An in-depth neurological examination is mandated to assess the severity and progression of ODS.MRI is the radiological modality of choice for earlier detection of ODS lesions. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, COVID -19 INDUCED AORTIC THROMBUS AND CRITICAL LIMBISHAEMIA(Македонско лекарско друштво = Macedonian medical association/De Gruyter, 2023-04-07) ;Nancheva Bogoevska, Andrea; ;Risteski, Filip ;Gjoreski, AleksandarJovanoska, Ivona50 years old male presented with livid redness on both feet, predominantly left, accompanied with severe pain and coldness. Two weeks before, he admitted to hospital due to COVID-19 bronchopneumonia. Urgent abdominal and lower extremities contrast enhanced CT was performed, which showed mural thrombus of the abdominal aorta (AA) extending from below the left renal artery to the iliac bifurcation and total occlusion of the left and partial occlusion of the right crural arteries. Interventional procedures are the first choice for initial emergency management, leaving surgery as a second and anticoagulant therapy as third option for treatment. Endovascular treatment is based on stent grafting. Covered stent graft was used to repair the AA and kissing stenting technique was used in the aortoilical part. The result was complete patency of AA and both iliacal arteries, with improved clinical status. Mural thrombi are likely to occur in large vessels as the heart and descending aorta, and less commonly in the aortic arch or the AA, causing flow reduction. Their occurrence is a rare in the absence of hypercoagulative state or inflammatory, infectious, or familial aortic ailments. In our case, Covid -19 is associate occurrence of thrombus in the AA, which throws out smaller thrombi in the peripheral circulation that causes critical limb ischemia (CLI).CT is the best modality for early diagnosis and endovascular treatment the least invasive treatment. Mural aortic thrombus accompanied by CLI is an urgent medical condition which, if not diagnosed and treated on time, can result in limb amputation or death. Endovascular stenting is first choice of treatment in patients without previous vascular disease. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
