Termínom megaloblastovej anémie označujeme skupinu anemických syndrómov rôznej patogenézy, ktorá je charakterizovaná tzv. megaloblastovou prestavbou kostnej drene a neefektívnou hematopoézou. V periférnej krvi je prítomná makrocytóza, erytrocyty presahujú veľkosť 96 fl. Príčinou tohto stavu je porucha syntézy DNA v neprítomnosti stavebných prvkov ako sú vitamín B12 alebo kyselina listová, v dôsledku pôsobenia niektorých liekov alebo následkom poruchy priamo v genetickom vybavení bunky. Nasledujúca kazuistika opisuje prípad primomanifestácie ťažkej pernicióznej anémie s hemoglobínom 32,9 g/l formou rozvoja sekundárneho infarktu myokardu u 79-ročnej pacientky, ktorá bola hospitalizovaná na internej klinike.

Myocarditis is an acute inflammatory condition that can have an infectious, toxic or autoimmune aetiology. Myocarditis can complicate many infections in which inflammation may be due directly to infection of the myocardium or the effects of circulating toxins. The clinical picture ranges from a symptomless disorder, sometimes recognised by the presence of an inappropriate tachycardia or abnormal ECG, to fulminant heart failure. Myocarditis may be heralded by an influenza-like illness. In most patients, the disease is self-limiting and the immediate prognosis is excellent. However, death may occur due to a ventricular arrhythmia or rapidly progressive heart failure. Myocarditis has been reported as a cause of sudden and unexpected death in young athletes. Some forms of myocarditis may lead to chronic low-grade myocarditis or dilated cardiomyopathy. The case report describes a case of parainfectious myocarditis in a 20-year-old patient. Are the case reports useful for you? Would you also require case reports from other clinical disciplines? Do you have any comments or suggestions for improvement?

Zápalové ochorenie myokardu je obvykle súčasťou generalizovaného infekčného ochorenia, najčastejšie vírusového. Klinický obraz kolíše od banálneho, kedy má pacient iba ,,chrípkové“ príznaky, až po fulminantný a často fatálny priebeh. U niektorých jedincov nedôjde k úplnému zhojeniu, ale k rozvoju dilatačnej kardiomyopatie. Myokarditídy sú tak častou príčinou srdcového zlyhania mladších jedincov. Kazuistika opisuje prípad parainfekčnej myokarditídy u 20-ročného pacienta. Sú pre vás obrazové kazuistiky užitočné? Požadovali by ste obrazové kazuistiky aj z iných odborov?

Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a serious public health concern and a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Despite advances in antimicrobial therapies, microbiological diagnostic tests and prevention measures, pneumonia remains the main cause of death from infectious disease in the world. An important reason for the increased global mortality is the impact of pneumonia on chronic diseases, along with the increasing age of the population and the virulence factors of the causative microorganism. In 2013, the Global Burden of Disease Study based on data from 188 countries around the world, reported that lower respiratory tract infection was the second most common cause of death. In Europe, mortality rates for CAP vary widely from country to country, ranging from <1% to 48%. Are the case reports useful for you?

A breach in the integrity of the aortic wall allows arterial blood to enter the media, which is then split into two layers, creating a “false lumen“ alongside the existing or “true lumen“. The primary event is often a spontaneous or iatrogenic tear in the intima of the aorta. Disease of the aorta and hypertension are the most important aetiological factors. The aortic dissection is a relatively rare condition, but it may rupture and have fatal consequences. The case report describes a dissection of the descending aorta in a 55-year-old patient. Are the case reports useful for you? Would you also require case reports from other clinical disciplines? Do you have any comments or suggestions for improvement?

Impaction or impacted tooth is a tooth that didn’t erupt into its position in the right time of his physiological eruption, is covered by bone and requires treatment. After precisely locating the position of impacted tooth, the appropriate orthodontic appliance is adapted, the space for impacted tooth is created. With surgical exposure of the tooth, the crown is uncovered and eruption chain is adapted. The pull is activated by elastic thread or other auxiliaries such as Kilroy spring or Monkey hook, that help to move the tooth into required position. Are the case reports useful for you? Would you also require case reports from other clinical disciplines? Do you have any comments or suggestions for improvement? Please provide your feedback by filling out a short questionnaire.

A two stage treatment of distoocclusion with proclination of upper incisors (AII/1) is very efficient in correctly indicated cases and the timing of the treatment is essential. During the growth spurt the removable functional appliance is placed in the mouth (in this case bionator) to provide the bite shift to AI class and to raise the deep bite by correctly trimmed functional appliance. The second phase of the treatment with fixed appliance is reduced and only the anomalies of the position of individual teeth are corrected. Are the case reports useful for you? Would you also require case reports from other clinical disciplines? Do you have any comments or suggestions for improvement? Please provide your feedback by filling out a short questionnaire.

Výrazný predhryz alebo tzv. zväčšený incizálny schodík môže byť zapríčinený buď výraznou protrúziou rezákov a prominenciou maxily alebo v opačnom prípade mikrogéniou, tzv. vtáčí profil. Prvá anomália sa zvyčajne rieši extrakciami prvých premolárov s následnou retrakciou frontálnych zubov. Druhá anomália si pre korektné riešenie vyžaduje ortognátnu operáciu. Pri liečbe retrakciou frontálnych zubov si liečebný plán vyžaduje dôkladné určenie potreby množstva kotvenia retrakčného systému. Ak si nesmieme dovoliť posun distálnych zubov smerom meziálnym ani o 1mm, vyžaduje sa tzv. absolútne kotvenie k miniimplantátom – dočasným kotviacim zariadeniam, zavedeným do kosti v správnej pozícii. K týmto miniimplantátom smerujú ťažné pružiny, ktoré sú pripevnené k frontálnemu segmentu a retrahujú ho tak bez straty distálneho kotvenia. Sú pre vás obrazové kazuistiky užitočné?

Napriek výraznému pokroku v diagnostike a liečbe nádorov pľúc v posledných rokoch patrí bronchogénny karcinóm k malignitám s najvyššou incidenciou a najhoršou prognózou. Atelektáza pľúcneho parenchýmu predstavuje častú komplikáciu lokálne pokročilého karcinómu pľúc. Centrálne rastúce nádory spôsobujú atelektázu následkom endobronchiálnej obštrukcie dýchacích ciest, menej často vplyvom extramurálneho tlaku alebo tvorbou paramalígneho výpotku v pleurálnej dutine. Kazuistika opisuje prípad pacienta opakovane hospitalizovaného na Klinike pneumológie a ftizeológie UNLP a LF UPJŠ pre bronchogénny karcinóm s postupne dokumentovanou röntgenologickou progresiou nálezu, finálne s rozvojom atelektázy pravého pľúcneho krídla.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a hereditary progressive neuromuscular disorder that is inherited in X-linked recessive pattern. Mutation of dystrophin gene results into a loss of integrity and function of muscular fibres and their replacement by adipose and connective tissue. Muscle degeneration leads to motoric impairment and loss of walk around 12th year of age. Myocardium is also frequently affected. Respiratory muscles impairment and other complications lead to respiratory failure. If left untreated, death occurs around 20th year of life, usually due to cardiac or respiratory causes. Respiratory insufficiency development is treated by mechanical ventilation support. Are the case reports useful for you? Would you also require case reports from other clinical disciplines?

Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is defined as the combined presence of obesity (BMI > 30kg/m2) with awake arterial hypercapnia (pCO2 > 6.0 kPa / 45 mmHg) in the absence of other causes of hypoventilation. The exact prevalence of OHS in the general population remains unknown, and most prevalence data describe subjects with obstructive sleep apnoea, wherein its prevalence has been estimated to range from 10% to 38% in different groups. On the other hand, patients with OHS often suffer from sleep-related breathing disorders. Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea may reach up to 90-95% in OHS patients.
