Sickle cell anemia is the most common abnormality of the red cell. The clinical manifestations of SCD are mostly related to hemolytic anemia, hypersplenism, and Vaso-occlusion, which can lead to acute and chronic pain and tissue ischemia or infarction. Disseminative or primary invasive infections such as histoplasmosis can masquerade in splenomegaly resulting in multiple hospital visits for acute splenic crises, causing increased morbidity and mortality. This case would increase our index of suspicion for invasive Splenic fungal infection in a sickle cell patient, especially with recurrent abdominal pain and hepatosplenomegaly as well as its management.

A 30-year-old primigravid at 31 weeks of gestation with ARDS and severe PIH was initially diagnosed at an external facility. Despite aggressive management, her blood pressure remained high. An incidental chest CT scan revealed overlooked coarctation of the aorta. Other secondary causes, like pheochromocytoma and renovascular hypertension, were explored.

Cyclopia is a rare and severe form of holoprosencephaly, a condition in which the forebrain fails to divide into two hemispheres during embryonic development. It is poorly reported in sub-Saharan Africa. We report the case of a 21-years-old G2P1001 lady who was referred to our service for better management of preterm labor. She was 29 weeks pregnant, and her cervix was 4 cm dilated on arrival. Labor progressed to vaginal delivery of a preterm malformed baby girl. Physical examination of the neonate revealed.

We describe the case of a 58-year-old black male smoker patient with untreated hypertension admitted to the emergency room without symptoms, having presented a few hours earlier, moderate chest pain with transient sweating. The clinical examination found blood pressure asymmetry and a weaker radial pulse on the right arm. The ECG showed nonspecific abnormalities. D dimers were greater than 20,000 µg/L. Chest CT angiography showed Stanford type A aortic dissection. The patient underwent emergency surgery with aortic valve replacement.
