Background: Hypopituitarism is the most common endocrinology complication of postoperative craniopharyngioma. However, we found a 10-year-old girl with a history of postoperative craniopharyngioma presenting with central precocious puberty (CPP), central diabetes insipidus (CDI), and growth hormone deficiency (GHD). Case presentation: A 5-year-old girl experienced breast growth followed by menstruation six months later. The patient's weight was 19 kg (weight-for-age: P25-P50), height was 109 cm (height-for-age: P10-P25), and good nutritional status (Waterlow 90%). The stage of pubertal development was M2P2. There was a history of craniopharyngioma, and it was resected at the age of 2 years. After surgery, the patient developed CDI and has received desmopressin. No new tumour growth was found from evaluation with periodic MRIs every three years. After CPP was established, with increased serum levels of LH, FSH, and estradiol, GnRH agonist therapy was given at 100 mcg/kg BW every month. During five years of follow-up, the patient experienced clinical and laboratory improvement. However, the growth is only 3-4 cm/year (

Background: Incisional hernia is a condition in which internal organs, such as the intestines, protrude through a previous surgical incision or suture. This occurs due to the failure of the abdominal wall to close properly. The closure of the abdominal wall is influenced by patient-related factors and technical factors during surgery. Incisional hernia following appendectomy is a rare condition, with an incidence rate of less than 0.12%. With this case report, the author aims to contribute to the literature on strangulated incisional hernia post-appendectomy. Case presentation: A 42-year-old male presented to the emergency department with complaints of right lower abdominal pain for the past three days. The patient reported a lump that had been intermittently present for the past nine years but became persistent three days ago. The patient had a history of appendectomy nine years ago. Vital signs were relatively stable, and physical examination revealed a bluish mass measuring 10x8x4 cm in the abdomen. Radiological abdominal assessment revealed a high-level obstructive ileus. Subsequently, the patient underwent a laparotomy, and a right hemicolectomy was performed, removing a segment measuring 50 cm from the ileocecal junction to the ascending colon. Conclusion: Incisional hernia following appendectomy is a rare complication, but it can occur due to various risk factors, such as surgical site infection, improper choice of suture material, and inappropriate wound closure technique. The management of this condition can involve the use of tension-free synthetic mesh in either laparotomy or laparoscopy.

Pneumonia is an acute inflammation of the lung parenchyma caused by various types of microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. The use of antibiotics is often faced with many types and inappropriate doses, and using antibiotics for too long can increase the risk of bacteria multidrug resistance (MDR). Therefore, the choice and dosage of antibiotics must be appropriate to reduce the rate of bacterial resistance. The increasing incidence of bacterial resistance is an indicator of failure in treating pneumonia because, apart from clinical improvement, optimal eradication of bacteria should also be the goal in every antibiotic administration. The aim of this literature review is to explain the basis for administering and selecting empiric antibiotics for pneumonia infections as well as appropriate antibiotic management and adequate especially in bacterial pneumonia, to provide a better prognosis.

Aspergillosis is one of the complications of lung cancer and lung cancer treatment. Diagnosis of Aspergillosis in lung cancer, in general, is still a challenge because clinical symptoms and examination results are not typical, and risk factors often go unnoticed. To simplify the diagnosis of Aspergillosis, several criteria have been created based on the patient's condition, clinical and radiological features, and mycological laboratory examination. Doctors' vigilance still needs to be increased, examination facilities are still limited in certain cities, and diagnostic services have not been integrated, so management is not optimal. This literature review aims to increase doctors' knowledge and awareness regarding aspergillosis in lung cancer, which is an important step to improve the appropriate management of this disease.

Ultrasonography (USG) is useful in diagnosing abnormalities in the thoracic area, such as pleural effusion, pneumothorax, consolidation, atelectasis, pulmonary edema, etc. The advantages of thoracic ultrasound are low cost, non-radiation, non-invasive, easy to carry, short examination time, and a dynamic aspect that can be seen during the examination. Thoracic ultrasound can be used to guide thoracentesis procedures, chest tube placement, and aspiration of lung abscesses. Ultrasound can be substituted as a computed tomography scan (CT-Scan) as a guide for aspiration and biopsy of the lung parenchyma, pleura, and chest wall. Portable and compact ultrasonography provides the opportunity for ultrasound examinations to become a routine part of an examination, like a stethoscope. Ultrasonography also has limitations in patients with subcutaneous emphysema, peripheral edema, and obesity. Ultrasound examination is very dependent on the experience and abilities of the operator.

Background: Eisenmenger syndrome is very rare in pregnant women. Debates remain concerning the management of Eisenmenger syndrome in this patient population, and the prognosis is unclear in terms of maternal and fetoneonatal outcomes. Managing anesthesia in maternal patients with a cardiac abnormality might be particularly difficult because these individuals have inadequate circulatory reserves and altered maternal cardiovascular physiology. Case presentation: We present a 26-year-old 34 weeks pregnant woman with Eisenmenger’s syndrome (ES) scheduled for an elective caesarean section. The clinical findings reveal slight tachypnea with peripheral oxygen saturation of 82% with oxygen supplementation using a cannula at 3 lpm. The patient's baseline hemodynamics are stable, but a third-degree murmur is heard in the 3rd and 4th left intercostal space. The patient was managed with epidural anesthesia using bupivacaine 0.5% 20 ml without adjuvant. The epidural catheter was inserted in an interspinous process between L3-L4. The surgery was done in 90 minutes with stable hemodynamics, and postoperatively, the patient was monitored in the intensive cardiac care unit (ICCU). Conclusion: Epidural anesthesia has been shown to provide favorable outcomes due to its slow onset and reducing the likelihood of abrupt hemodynamic changes.

Background: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a localized malignant tumor in the basal layer of the epidermis thought to be the result of prolonged sun exposure and associated with gene mutations in most cases. Although rarely metastazises, BCC can cause high levels of morbidity due to its locally destructive nature. There are several modalities for managing BCC, and the defect caused by the lesion can reconstructed by local flap. Case presentation: We present a 55-year-old woman with a chief complaint of a blackish lump on the left maxillary region, growing bigger, and frequent episodes of bleeding. The lesion was excised and followed by histopathological examination, which revealed mixed subtype BCC. Closure of the defect with an advancement flap was performed with favorable results. Conclusion: Surgical excision is the best option for managing BCC, while a skin flap is preferred to close defects for lesions on the cheek.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that is a global health problem. The problem is that 5-28% of patients receiving tuberculosis treatment suffer from drug-induced hepatitis on antituberculosis drugs (OAT). The clinical picture should be differentiated from other liver diseases. The level of symptoms varies from asymptomatic to symptomatic, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, jaundice, hepatomegaly, and increased liver function. OAT use is stopped if clinical symptoms are found and ALT/AST increases ≥3 times, or if there are no symptoms but there is an increase in bilirubin ≥2 mg/dl or ALT/AST values ≥5 times without clinical symptoms. The use of OAT can be continued, but with supervision, if there are no clinical symptoms and the increase in ALT/AST is <2 times and the bilirubin value is <2 mg/dl. Treatment can be carried out again by reintroducing OATs one by one according to ATS recommendations.

Pleuroscopy is a less invasive treatment that allows access to the pleural cavity with the use of both visual and surgical equipment. This technique can be conducted with local anesthesia and mild sedation. Pleuroscopy is a medical procedure used for both diagnosis and treatment in the pleural cavity. Pleuroscopy enables direct observation of the pleural surface, enhancing the safety of procedures such as pleural biopsy, pleural fluid drainage, and pleurodesis. One purpose is to assist in verifying the diagnosis of cancer. This review was aimed to describe the use of flexi-rigid pleuroscopy in malignancy.

Subcutaneous emphysema is the result of air infiltrating the subcutaneous and soft tissues. The prevalence of subcutaneous emphysema varies between 0.43% and 2.34%. Subcutaneous emphysema typically results in mild symptoms, poses no significant risk, and does not necessitate specific medical intervention. Pathologies affecting underlying tissues can exhibit greater severity and pose a risk to life. Subcutaneous emphysema is a challenge in terms of how to handle it. The treatment should initiate a focused endeavor to determine the underlying etiology of subcutaneous air dissection. This literature review focuses on subcutaneous emphysema, specifically exploring its pathogenesis and therapy strategies for people with this condition.
