Introduction: AKI incidence reported in COVID-19 patients is increasing with contradictory study results about AKI development with increased mortality. This study was conducted to assess a possible correlation between risk factors that led to AKI and increased mortality. Methods: A total of eight articles found through an online database published between 2020 and 2021 were used. A total of 9 455 patients with COVID-19 were divided into AKI and non-AKI.

Background: Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare autoimmune disease and is one of the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies which predominately affects the skin and muscles. Its estimated incidence is less than 10 cases per million population with an overall female/male ratio is approximately 2:1. This case report presents a classic case of dermatomyositis in a male in Indonesia.

Introduction: Lymphoma can occur in adults and the elderly, this will affect the condition of both diagnosis and therapy. Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the case is rarely found and often overlaps the anatomical pathology picture similar to plasmacytoma. It is aggressive and often relapses.

Insulinoma is a rare entity, in which neuroglycopenia symptoms of recurrent hypoglycemia are often confused with the neuropsychiatric disorder, especially in a patient with hydrocephalus. Hypoglycemia leads to a proinflammatory and procoagulant state, which may worsen the COVID-19 prognosis. We report a case of a 25-year-old woman with an initial presentation of seizure. No previous medical history and drugs were recorded. Intravenous dextrose is administered as low blood sugar was evident but no marked improvement in consciousness was observed.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was declared a pandemic since it rapidly spread worldwide. COVID-19 has various manifestations, ranging from asymptomatic to life-threatening conditions. During the pandemic, patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARD) were included in the population at risk. In addition, the use of immunosuppressants or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) was considered to increase the susceptibility to infection. Studies have reported that COVID-19 and ARD have similarities in their clinical findings and immune responses. This study aims to understand the profile of patients with ARD infected with COVID-19 at Dr. Soetomo Hospital in 2020–2022.

Introduction: To date, severe Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) that can be associated with mortality only occurred in 0.1 % – 2 % of all OHSS cases. This paper reports one of those rare cases accompanied by spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and thrombocytosis. Case Presentation: A 28-year-old female had OHSS as a complication of in-vitro fertilization. Clinical presentation fever, dyspnea, ascites, thrombocytosis, leukocytosis, and bilateral multiloculated cystic ovaries.

Introduction: Solid pseudopapillary pancreatic tumor (Frantz’s Tumor) is a low-grade malignancy, that lacks clinical symptomatology. It was treatable with a favorable prognosis. Case presentation: A young female patient presented with increasing abdominal pain three years ago. Abdominal examination revealed a lump palpable. Contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography abdomen reported a solid mass measuring 13.9 cm x 13.2 cm x 8.9 cm from the pancreas with an enhancing cystic component. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy yielded a cellular sample comprising pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas. A distal pancreatectomy was performed; she was discharged in satisfactory condition.

Introduction: Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common zoonoses worldwide. Clinical manifestations of ocular toxoplasmosis are highly specific. Atypical manifestations are not uncommon and are not always recognized as specific to ocular toxoplasmosis. Here, we present a rare manifestation of acute blindness in ocular toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent patient.

Background: Malignancy is the most common cause of non-inflammatory pericardial effusion that is usually neglected. Metastatic involvement of the pericardium is reflecting the advanced stage of the disease and generally associated with poor outcomes.

Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has diverse clinical manifestations. Vasculitis is one of the clinical manifestations found in SLE. Vasculitis is present in different clinical forms, with purpura lesions seeming to be uncommon. Case Presentation: We report a case of a 20-year-old male SLE patient who developed purpura on his extremities. Histologically, the lesions were suggestive of leukocytoclastic vasculitis.
