Abstract

Background: Simultaneous non-traumatic bilateral basal ganglia haemorrhage is an infrequent entity. ICH accounts for 10 to 20 % of all cerebrovascular events in the US, with 30-day mortality up to 40%. The predisposing factors and pathophysiological processes leading to simultaneous bilateral basal ganglia development are not well known. Case presentation: A 43-year-old female patient was diagnosed with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage in the left basal ganglia and intraventricular haemorrhage. The patient underwent an urgent ICH evacuation craniotomy. After the procedure, the patient was treated in the intensive care unit. The patient was intubated for 4 days. Then, on the fifth day of stay in the ICU, a tracheostomy was performed on the patient. Conclusion: Spontaneous ICH has high mortality and morbidity. ICH management is mainly on timely targeted blood pressure management, effective and rapid reversal of coagulopathy to prevent hematoma expansion, and uncompromising intracranial pressure management.

Abstract

Background: Pulmonary contusion, a common consequence of chest trauma, presents significant management challenges, especially when associated with multiple rib fractures and other injuries. These cases often require intensive care due to the high risk of complications and mortality. This report presents a case of a patient with pulmonary contusion, multiple rib fractures, and cerebral contusion to illustrate the complexities involved in managing such cases. Case Presentation: A 44-year-old male was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) following a motor vehicle accident. He presented with decreased consciousness, multiple rib fractures, severe lung contusion, and cerebral edema. The patient's condition was further complicated by the development of respiratory distress and hemodynamic instability. Conclusions: The management of pulmonary contusion with multiple rib fractures and associated injuries requires a multidisciplinary approach with careful attention to respiratory support, hemodynamic management, pain control, and early intervention for complications.

Abstract

Background: Retropharyngeal abscess (RPA) is a serious deep neck space infection that can lead to life-threatening complications such as airway obstruction, mediastinitis, and sepsis. The Trendelenburg position, where the patient's head is lower than their feet, has been traditionally used in the management of RPA to prevent aspiration of pus in case of abscess rupture. However, the optimal positioning for patients with RPA remains a topic of debate. Case presentation: A 51-year-old male patient presented to the emergency room with a 5-day history of progressive dysphagia and neck swelling. He was diagnosed with a ruptured retropharyngeal abscess extending to the mediastinum (descending necrotizing mediastinitis). The patient underwent surgical drainage and was subsequently admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), where he was intubated and mechanically ventilated in the Trendelenburg position. Five days later, the patient developed pneumonia, suspected to be ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Conclusion: The Trendelenburg position may be considered in the management of RPA to minimize the risk of aspiration. However, it is essential to weigh the potential benefits against the risks, including VAP, and to consider alternative positions such as the lateral Trendelenburg position, which may offer similar benefits with reduced risk. Further research is needed to determine the optimal positioning strategy for patients with RPA.

Abstract

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. This condition can cause significant blood loss in a short period of time, requiring rapid and appropriate intervention to prevent fatal complications. A 30-year-old female patient came to the hospital with G0P1A0H1 with bleeding from the birth canal, currently 37-38 weeks pregnant. After examination, the patient was found to have suspected placenta previa accreta. During surgery, grade 3 placenta accreta was found to have infiltrated the urinary bladder, and a joint operation was performed with the urology department. Intraoperative bleeding was approximately 2000 cc, and during the operation, 4 units of whole blood, 2 units of PRC, 4 units of FFP, and 4 units of cryoprecipitate were administered. Intraoperative hemodynamics fluctuated. After the operation, the patient was transferred to the ICU for monitoring. Management of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is based on rapid diagnosis and immediate replacement of lost blood volume, as well as restoration of the blood's ability to carry oxygen. In addition, prompt medical and surgical measures to address the underlying cause of bleeding are essential to prevent further blood loss
