Rapidly Recurrent Basilar Artery Thrombosis Treated With Emergent Mechanical Thrombectomies And Stenting, Mark Cohen, Amna Imran, Ankur Garg

Neurology

Acute basilar artery thrombosis (BAT) is a life-threatening condition that can be treated by emergent mechanical thrombectomy (EMT). Recurrent acute BAT is a rare phenomenon. Here we describe a case of rapid recurrent acute BAT that was treated each time by EMT and finally by emergent basilar artery stenting with good outcome

Double Pylorus: Case Report Of Atypical Presentation, Christopher Lozano Orpiano Do, Gurjeet Kang Do, Michael Quinn Do, Lakshminarasimhan Venu Md, Joseph Staffetti Md

Gastroenterology

Introduction: Double pylorus is a rare endoscopic finding that has been reported in 0.001% to 0.4% of upper gastrointestinal endoscopies, consisting of a gastroduodenal fistula extending from the prepyloric gastric antrum to the duodenal bulb through an accessory channel. In the majority of cases, it is a complication when peptic ulcers erode and create a fistula between the duodenal bulb and the distal stomach. It usually presents on the lessor curvature of the gastric antrum and on a superior wall of the duodenal bulb. It is commonly an endoscopic finding, since clinical presentation is similar to other peptic diseases.
