INTRODUCTION: Severe head trauma could be followed by a wide range of movement disorders. Usually, they appear as a moderate or severe intention tremor that causes great patient disability. Those movement disorders use to be refractary to medical treatment, although sometimes they would be spontaneusly controlled by a year. CLINICAL CASE: 14 year old boy who suffered severe head trauma at age of 8. One year after the injury he developed an action tremor and choreiform dyskinesia with hemibalistic features evocated by the movement...

OBJECTIVE: To describe the perioperative characteristics, complications and outcome of the first 22 patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy for refractary/recurrent ITP in our institution. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Clinical and biochemical characteristics, spleen size, indication for surgery, operative time, blood requirements, complications and outcome of 22 patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy between 1994 and 1997 were prospectively recorded. Their mean age was 40 +/- 15 (+/- SD), 15 females and 7 males...

INTRODUCTION: Prospective study to evaluate efficacy of ketogenic diet (KD) in the treatment of children with intractable epilepsies (IE). Tolerability of the KD was also considered. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Criteria for inclusion were: 1. Epilepsy refractary to treatments with antiepileptic drugs (AED) in monotherapy and combining two or three AED. 2. Acknowledgment of blood levels of these drugs in therapeutic range. 3. Absence of liver or kidney disease, metabolic abnormalities, inborn errors of metabolism or other progressive encephalopathies...

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) represents a new surgical technique minimally invasive utilized in the treatment of portal hypertension. Such technique avoid the risks of general anesthesia, and major surgery like portocava anastomosis, reducing the hepatic-portal gradient, and help bleeding esophagogastric varices, hemorrhagic congestive gastropathy and refractary ascites. Certainly diminishes the intensity of intraperitoneal colorectal circulation and the necessity of blood transfusion during surgery for liver transplantation...

We present the case of a silicotic patient, with recurrent febrile episodes during the past three years, who was hospitalized for the study of prolonged fever. In addition to compliance with the criteria of fever from unknown origin (FUO), the patient presented semiology and echocardiogram compatible with infectious endocarditis. Later on, he developed a severe aortic failure refractary to medical treatment and hence, he underwent surgery. The surgical intervention showed an abscess in the aortic root, which resulted to be of a tuberculous origin and an intact aortic valve...

Naloxone clorhidrate was administered intravenously to 15 patients with endotoxic shock and refractary hypotension, following meningococcal sepsis. Doses used were between 0.01-0.2 mg/kg. Three patients (two of them with moderate shock) showed an increase in sistolic arterial pressure, which was maintained and above 20 mm/Hg. Among the rest of them (except one with severe shock) naloxone action was non-existent in nine cases, or with short action and without answer to next doses in other three. Eleven patients died...

We studied the antiarrhythmic effect of oral Mexiletine in 20 patients with stable high-frequency ventricular arrhythmias refractory to therapeutic doses of conventional antiarrhythmic therapy. Arrhythmias were classified according to modified grading system of Lown and Wolf. The efficacy of Mexiletine was assessed with use of both the arrhythmic modified classification of Lown and Wolf and count of premature ventricular beats (PVB) from 24 hours ambulatory electrocardiographic recordings. The dose of Mexiletine was 300 mg every 8 hours; 24 hours ECG recordings were obtained in each patient on days 5,15 and 20 during Mexiletine therapy...

JOURNAL ARTICLE
J Faergemann
Pityrosporum and Candida-yeasts are opportunistic pathogens and infections require predisposing factors. These factors are also of major importance in treatment and the reason for recurrence and sometimes chronicity of the disease caused by these yeasts. Pityrosporum orbiculare and P.ovale are both lipophilic, probably identical, and both are members of the normal human cutaneous flora. In pityriasis versicolor they change from the blastospore form to the mycelial form. My favourite treatment for pityriasis versicolor is propylene glycol 50% in water applied with a gauze pad twice daily for 2 weeks...

We herein report the case of a 53-year-old white acromegalic patient with an abdominal mass due to massive cardiomegaly. The patient suffered from long lasting acromegaly refractary to bromocriptine, transsphenoidal surgery and radiotherapy. He had been previously diagnosed as having systemic hypertension, ischemic chest pain and congestive heart failure with marked cardiomegaly. The present admission was due to asthenia, anorexia and weight loss that were finally attributed to adrenal insufficiency secondary to radiotherapy...
