Spontaneous Tumor Lysis Syndrome In An Adenocarcinoma Of Unknown Origin., Joshua A. Kalter Ms3, Jamie Allen Do, Yuchen Yang Do, Tyler Willing Do, Elizabeth M. Evans Do

Department of Emergency Medicine

Spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome (STLS) is a rare oncologic emergency caused by massive cancer cell lysis or necrosis without a precipitating factor. Although tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is most commonly associated with hematologic malignancies, a small number of cases in solid tumor malignancies have been reported. We present a case of spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome in a 77-year-old female with a widely metastatic, poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of unknown origin. She presented in distributive shock, and laboratory testing at admission revealed acute renal failure, high anion gap metabolic acidosis, hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hypocalcemia. Rasburicase and continuous renal replacement therapy were …

A 10-Year-Old With Frequent, Disruptive, And Unexplained Night Awakenings, Sameh S. Morkous Md, Faan Dec 2020

A 10-Year-Old With Frequent, Disruptive, And Unexplained Night Awakenings, Sameh S. Morkous Md, Faan

Department of Pediatrics

A 10-year-old female presented to the sleep clinic for a second opinion about her epilepsy diagnosis. She had been treated with antiepileptic medication but her events persisted. The child would wake up several times every night speaking nonsense words, appear confused to her family, and then go back to sleep. A video of the polysomnography (PSG) showed the patient having two of her typical events. The patient was eventually diagnosed with confusional arousal (CoA) secondary to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The nocturnal events resolved after her OSA was treated. This case highlights an atypical clinical presentation for a type of …


Rare Presentation Of A Rare Disease: Signet-Ring Cell Gastric Adenocarcinoma In Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome., Zeeshan Ali Md, Pritika S Manaktala, Saro Sarkisian Md, Muhammad A. Rizvi Md Dec 2020

Rare Presentation Of A Rare Disease: Signet-Ring Cell Gastric Adenocarcinoma In Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome., Zeeshan Ali Md, Pritika S Manaktala, Saro Sarkisian Md, Muhammad A. Rizvi Md

Hematology-Medical Oncology Division

Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) is an exceedingly infrequent genetic disorder characterized by a multitude of skin findings collectively known as poikiloderma. In normal cells, the RECQL4 gene is involved in DNA replication and repair. RTS is caused by a mutation in the RECQL4 gene, which results in increased predilection to develop various malignancies. Osteosarcomas and skin cancers are typically associated with this syndrome. We present a rare case of signet-ring cell gastric adenocarcinoma in a patient with RTS.


Accuracy Of Psychiatrists' Assessment Of Medication Adherence In An Outpatient Setting., Katherine B. Martin Md Dec 2020

Accuracy Of Psychiatrists' Assessment Of Medication Adherence In An Outpatient Setting., Katherine B. Martin Md

Department of Psychiatry

BACKGROUND: Many patients have uncontrolled psychiatric symptoms because they are not taking their medication as prescribed. Psychiatrists may have difficulty accurately assessing medication adherence, which is important because it helps guide them in how they prescribe. If nonadherence is the cause of uncontrolled symptoms, then strategies to improve adherence are advised. However, if nonadherence is not the cause, then the usual course of action would be to intensify or modify the medication regimen. Knowing whether nonadherence is a factor at the time of an appointment could help guide clinical decision making in real-time.

METHODS: A cohort of established patients in …
