Abstract

Background:  Abnormalities of the human meniscus, including discoid meniscus, double-layered meniscus, and ring-shaped meniscus, have been reported. The prevalence of discoid meniscus is extremely rare, with an incidence of 0.9%-2.4% in the Asian population. Traditionally, discoid meniscus concomitant anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures are extremely rare cases. The aim of this study is to discuss a rare case to provide diagnosis and management properly by using arthroscopy.Case Presentation:  A 21-year-old male Balinese, complained of pain in his right knee after fast walking for two months and an unstable knee in the past 1 year ago. On physical examination, the range of motion was limited due to the pain for flexion of more than 90°. Special tests such as Lachman test positive, and Anterior drawer test positive. The patient had medial joint line tenderness, and a McMurray test elicited pain on the medial joint line. Meanwhile, an MRI examination of the right knee showed a discoid medial meniscus with a horizontal cleavage tear and a discoid lateral meniscus with an incomplete tear. We performed a partial meniscectomy of the incomplete discoid medial meniscus and resection of the pathologic medial patellar plica. We performed surgical reconstruction of the ACL ruptured after the meniscus was repaired.Results:  We presented a 21-year-old male with discoid meniscus concomitant ACL rupture to his right knee. After the patient was performed with partial meniscectomy of the incomplete discoid medial meniscus and resection of pathologic medial patellar plica following surgical reconstruction of the ACL ruptured. The patient had no limitation of motion or pain 1 year after the operation and he had no complaints and was satisfied with the result by radiograph.Conclusion:  We concluded that This rare case of medial discoid meniscus concomitant with the ACL rupture must be reconstructed. The treatment of discoid meniscus should consider its tear pattern and whether it is symptomatic. With the development of arthroscopic techniques, the treatment of discoid meniscus has gradually changed from total meniscectomy or partial meniscectomy.Keywords:  anterior cruciate ligament, meniscus, discoid, knee, arthroscopy.Correspondence:  I Gusti Ngurah Wien Aryana.

Abstract

Background: Spondylodiscitis is a rare but serious spinal infection that may result in neuro-logical and systemic complications, especially when associated with paraspinal abscess formation. This case highlights its clinical severity and the importance of early intervention. This study aims to highlight the clinical importance and potential severity of spondylodiscitis, particularly when complicated by paraspinal abscess formation. Case Presentation: A patient presented with progressive lower back pain, bilateral lower limb weakness, and systemic symptoms including fever and night sweats. Laboratory tests revealed hypoalbuminemia, leukocytosis, and anemia. MRI imaging identified a paraspinal abscess at the L3–L5 levels, resulting in lumbar canal stenosis and worsening neurological deficits. Emergency surgical intervention was undertaken, consisting of abscess drainage, laminectomy for neural decompression, and posterior spinal stabilization. Intraoperative findings included a substantial purulent collection, necessitating extensive debridement. Postoperatively, the patient demonstra¬ted clinical improvement with ongoing antibiotic therapy, nutritional support, and rehabilitation. Discussion: Spondylodiscitis with paraspinal abscess is a diagnostic challenge due to its insidious onset and non-specific presentation. Delayed recognition increases the risk of severe neurological impairment and systemic sepsis. MRI is the gold standard for early detection, while micro¬biological confirmation is crucial for targeted treatment. A multidisciplinary approach is essential. Surgical intervention is indicated for progressive neurological deficits, extensive abscess formation, or spinal instability, with timely antibiotic therapy playing a critical role in infection control. Conclusion: This case illustrates the importance of early diagnosis and timely surgical manage-ment in spondylodiscitis with paraspinal abscess. Multimodal treatment improves outcomes and helps prevent long-term disability.

Abstract

Severe sepsis is sepsis with one or more organ dysfunction. One of the causes of sepsis in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia (HAP). HAP occurs 5-10 cases per 1000 patients on mechanical ventilation. Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is predominantly caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Several important factors in the pathogenesis of VAP are barrier to Na+-K+-Cl– transporter-1 (NKCC1), endotracheal tube device without antibiofilm. VAP can be prevented by oral hygiene, endotracheal tube device made from antibiofilm, head up 30 degrees, evaluation of cough ability, swallowing function
