Appendicitis-I: Introduction01:22

Appendicitis-I: Introduction

3.4K
The appendix, a small, narrow, blind tube extending from the inferior part of the cecum, is widely regarded as a vestigial organ, having lost much of its original function through evolution. Despite its diminished role, the appendix can become inflamed, a condition known as appendicitis.
Etiology: Appendicitis can arise from various causes, primarily rooted in the obstruction of the appendix lumen. Factors contributing to this obstruction include fecal accumulation, lymphoid hyperplasia and, in...

Abdominal Regions and Quadrants01:19

Abdominal Regions and Quadrants

19.4K
To promote clear communication, for instance, about the location of a patient's abdominal pain or a suspicious mass, anatomists and clinicians typically use imaginary lines to categorize the abdominopelvic cavity into either four quadrants or nine regions to identify organs in the cavity.
The simpler quadrants approach, which is more commonly used in medicine, subdivides the cavity with one horizontal and one vertical line that intersects at the patient's umbilicus (navel). The four...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome I: Introduction

1.4K
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is characterized by functional disturbances in the gastrointestinal system, presenting a cluster of symptoms without evident structural or biochemical abnormalities. It primarily affects the large intestine and may cause abdominal pain, bloating, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or both.
IBS is a chronic condition that can persist over a long period or recur frequently.
The pathogenesis of IBS involves a complex interplay of the following factors:

Drugs for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis in IBD01:29

Drugs for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis in IBD

606
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory condition primarily affecting the colon and rectum. The primary drugs used in the treatment of ulcerative colitis are aminosalicylates. They exhibit anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. They modulate inflammatory mediators and inhibit the activity of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB). Aminosalicylates also reduce inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin and leukotriene production and decreasing neutrophil chemotaxis and superoxide...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease

1.5K
Introduction
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...

Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Acute sacroiliitis is an uncommon condition presenting diagnostic challenges.
  • Sacroiliac joint pain can mimic more frequent musculoskeletal disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current data on the etiology, risk factors, clinical presentations, and diagnostic approaches for acute sacroiliitis.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was performed using the PubMed database with the term "acute sacroiliitis."
  • Relevant data were extracted and organized to address the study's objectives.

Main Results:

  • Pyogenic sacroiliitis is the most frequent cause, though brucellosis, reactive arthritis, and crystal-induced sacroiliitis can present similarly.
  • Imaging modalities like bone scintigraphy, CT, and MRI are crucial for diagnosis and assessing complications.
  • Rare causes include hematological malignancies and isotretinoin treatment.

Conclusions:

  • Timely diagnosis requires clinical awareness and thorough physical examination.
  • Appropriate laboratory and imaging studies are essential for confirming the diagnosis and guiding treatment.
