Abstract

Background: Hydatidiform mole or commonly known as molar pregnancy is one of the gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) caused by an abnormal trophoblast proliferation. About 50% of gestational trophoblast neoplasm (GTN) arises from molar pregnancy. Higher risk of GTN was found in older patient, especially women age ≥40 years old. Management of hydatidiform mole is often faced come challenges, especially in developing country like Indonesia. Although, suction curettage is the most recommended treatment for the evacuation of molar pregnancy, hysterectomy is considerable for women who have completed childbirth and do not wish to preserve their fertility.Case: Here we present case of 48 years old women with hydatidiform mole. Considering the age of the patient and the completion of her childbearing, we decided to do a laparotomy total abdominal hysterectomy for the evacuation of the mole instead of suction curettage. Turned out that this patient had an invasive mole, one of the types of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia.Conclusion: Although suction curettage is the most frequent technique for molar evacuation, hysterectomy is a reasonable option as primary treatment to be performed in older patients and for those who do not wish to preserve their fertility. The other important points such as socio-economic status, education level, and geographical issues should be considered also on managing older patients with hydatidiform mole in developing countries

Abstract

Peritoneal Malignant Mesothelioma (PMM) is uncommon disease, but increasing in frequency nowadays. This highly aggressive malignancy occurs most commonly in older men and has a strong association with asbestos exposure. It manifests most often as diffuse sheet-like or nodular thickening of the peritoneal surfaces, but it may occasionally be a localized mass. The very large variations of its clinical features and its histological appearance mimicking adenocarcinoma make this tumor is difficult to diagnose.We report a case of PMM that previously diagnose as adenocarcinoma of the ovary. A 29 year-old female came to gynecology clinic with para-ovarian mass. She had no history of asbestos exposure. The mass was oval 9x6x6 cm in size, whitish and firm. Microscopic features showed papillary dense structure with desmoplastic stroma, covered by a layer of cuboidal to columnar cells. The cells with mild pleomorphism and hyperchromatic nuclei, mitotic figures were minimal. The immunohistochemistry tests revealed positive for D2-40, Calretinin, CK8 and CK 18, weakly positive for Inhibin and EMA, and negative for CEA and AFP. Patient had been received chemotherapy, there were no metastasis.

Abstract

Psoas abscess is a rarely found abscess located in the iliopsoas compartment. It characterized by fever, back pain, and limitation of hip movements. Psoas abscess is hard to diagnose due to only 30% of classic symptoms and signs are found. In this study we discussed tuberculous psoas abscess in patient 26 years old male. Anamnesis, physical examination, and supporting medical tests were done to diagnose tuberculous psoas abscess. Therefore we performed abscess incision and drainage, followed by continuous tuberculous therapy.Keywords: tuberculous psoas abscess

Abstract

The brain ischemia due to vascular occlusion, especially in the main cerebral artery, could trigger the microglia as a natural immune cell in the brain. These activated microglia will turn up the inflammation cascade in the ischemic area. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) has a vital role in the microglial alteration to become an anti-inflammatory phenotype, which wind up the expression of MHC II and CD11c. Moreover, previous studies has supported that the stimulation of IL-4 in the culture of microglia/macrophage will produce this kind of “alternative” phenotype or neuroprotective phenotype, through the fall of TNF and rise of IGF-1. However, only a few have discussed the role and profile of IL-4 in ischemic stroke. This review article will cover the possibility of IL-4 role as an anti-inflammatory predictor in ischemic stroke.Keywords: Interleukin-4, microglia, ischemic stroke, inflammation

Abstract

Leukemia akut merupakan jenis kanker yang paling sering ditemukan pada anak-anak, dengan angka kejadian sekitar 30 persen dari keseluruhan kasus keganasan pada anak-anak, dengan leukemia limfoblastik akut (LLA) memiliki angka kejadian lima kali lebih sering daripada leukemia mieloblastik akut (LMA). Meskipun tata laksana dan regimen pengobatan untuk leukemia limfoblastik akut sudah lebih maju, angka harapan hidup pasien masih cukup rendah terutama pada kelompok pasien dengan usia awitan yang lebih tua (berkisar pada angka 40% pada kelompok umur lebih tua). Dilaporkan sebuah kasus pada seorang anak perempuan berusia 17 tahun yang datang dengan pendarahan dari hidung, telinga, gusi dan saluran cerna (melena dan hematemesis) sejak 3 hari sebelum masuk rumah sakit. Pemeriksaan darah dan apus darah tepi menunjukkan pansitopenia dengan hitung jenis 26% dominan limfosit, dan dengan persentase retikulosit 0.26% yang menunjukkan adanya kegagalan fungsi sumsum tulang. Pasien ini direncanakan untuk menjalani biopsi sumsum tulang sebelum akhirnya meninggal pada hari ketiga perawatan.

Abstract

Patogen MDRO, seperti vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Acinetobacter spp., extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria, dan Clostridium defficile seringkali menyebabkan kolonisasi/healthcare-associated infection (HAI) di lingkungan ICU. Sejumlah penelitian membuktikan bahwa petugas kesehatan menularkan pathogen ini melalui kontak langsung dengan tangan atau sarung tangan setelah menyentuh permukaan yang terkontaminasi atau pasien. Lingkungan berperan penting pada penyebaran hospital-acquired pathogens (HAP) dan terjadinya HAI. Metode pembersihan dan dekontaminasi rutin yang telah diterapkan dan dilakukan di lingkungan rumah sakit seringkali gagal ataupun tidak efektif dalam menggurangi penyebaran patogen MDRO. Kegagalan ini disebabkan tidak seluruh permukaan medis dan rumahtangga yang seringkali tersentuh tidak terdekontaminasi dengan sempurna. Untuk itu diperlukan tindakan lanjutan berupa pembersihan terminal menggunakan metode baru, seperti (1) hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) dan (2) sinar UV yang telah terbukti efektif secara mikrobiologi, aman dan mudah digunakan.

Abstract

Hemophilia A and B are X-linked recessive diseases that are caused by gene mutations in factors VIII adan IX of the blood clotting cycle. Hemophilia C is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a mutation in factor XI, and acquired hemophilia is largely is an autoimmune process. Hemophilia A and B cannot be distinguished clinically, and severe cases can cause bleeding in the joints and lead to chronic hemophilic arthropathy. The main treatment of hemophilia is infusions of factor VIII and IX, and DDAVP in less severe cases. The main complication that can rise from the use of clotting factors is the appearance of specific inhibitor antibodies that can neutralize the work of the factors. Severe cases of hemophilia A and B by itself carries a poor prognosis, but proper treatment throught the use of clotting factors can give a very good prognosis

Abstract

En plaque meningioma is at frontal region is difficult to be differentiated from osteoma, based on CT scan only. En plaque meningioma represents in 2-9% of all meningioma cases. Usually en plaque meningioma grows on the sphenoid wing, whereas only 1 % grows on the frontal and temporal bone. This case is female 37 year- old who presents with chronic headache and huge lump on her right forehead that she believes it slowly enlarges for the last 5 years. The Computerized Tomography scan (CT scan) shows thickening of the right fronto-temporal bone (3-4 cm) with the diameter of 12 cm and bony hard. Initial impression suggests it could be osteoma or fibrous dysplasia. After the MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) with contrast, it shows a carpet like tumor underline the thickening bone, and it suggest an en plaque meningioma. For en plaque meningioma, we have to remove the abnormal duramater. We suggest that for a case with a wide thickening calvarian bone, it’s better to get the MRI of the head with contrast.
