Abstract:
We show two atypical Cogan's syndrome cases in forty-seven and fifty-six years old individuals. Characteristical symptoms of the syndrome were detected in both (interstitial keratitis, sensorineural deafness and vestibular dysfunction), but they could be considered as unusual because of the association of systematic symptoms and an onset with hearing loss. In both cases there was an increase in erythrosedimentation rate and immunoglobulins levels, as well as high titles for rheumatoid factor and non-specific autoantibodies. By means of a Western-blot technique, several chochlear antibodies with distinct molecular weight were detected, but the 68 KD appeared in both. Metil-prednisolone treatment did not avoid ocular and auditive reactivation in ne of the patients.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is classified into subtypes based on the predominant bowel habits as determined by the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS). The subtypes are:
Atypical Pneumonia
Autism Spectrum Disorder
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.
