Ventricular Septal Aneurysm Mimicking Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Mass In A Patient With Ventricular Septal Defect., Nikhil A. Mehta Md, Syed Rafay Ali Sabzwari, Sara Godil Md, Ghulam Akbar Md, Raman Dusaj Md, Neeraj Shah

Cardiology Division

A 50-year-old man presented with an episode of chest pain. Cardiac magnetic resonance revealed the presence of a large ventricular septal aneurysm partially closing a perimembranous ventricular septal defect, prolapsing into the right ventricular outflow tract, and mimicking a mass. We illustrate the diagnostic approach and management of such ventricular septal aneurysms. (

Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Induced By Immune Checkpoint Inhibitiors: A Case Report And Review Of The Literature., Zeeshan Ali Md, Muhammad Usman Zafar, Zachary Wolfe, Faisal Akbar, Bradley Lash

Hematology-Medical Oncology Division

In recent years, the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in cancer treatment has rapidly expanded. In randomized clinical trials, these agents have demonstrated clinical efficacy in extending survival and increasing response rates. Immune-related adverse effects (irAEs) involving various organs have been frequently narrated. Herein, we present a case report of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) as a rare side effect of nivolumab, plus ipilimumab, in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A review of the literature for other case reports of TTP during treatment with ICIs was also performed. Our aim is to elucidate the significance of early …

Hematology-Medical Oncology Division

The treatment of metastatic melanoma has changed dramatically in the last decade with the introduction of immunotherapy and targeted therapy. A futile disease in the past is now treated with various options, resulting in improvement in progression-free and overall survivals, along with improvement in the quality of life. Having said that, the majority of patients with metastatic melanoma eventually succumb to the disease. Molecular profiling of each tumor in the advanced stage is standard of care now, as this would lead to individualized treatment options for each patient. Here, we present a rare case of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 …

Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis In Cardiogenic Ascites., Muhammad Usman Zafar, Jasraj Marjara, Zahid Ijaz Tarar, Ghulam Ghous, Preysi Patel Do

Department of Emergency Medicine

The most common cause of ascites is liver cirrhosis. Additional causes such as heart failure, cancer, and pancreatitis among others can also precipitate this abnormality. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is an infection of ascitic fluid that happens without any evidence of an intra-abdominal surgically-treatable cause. Ascites of cardiac origin can also be complicated by SBP. Here we present a case of a 62-year-old male with extensive cardiac history who presented to our service with ongoing dyspnea and orthopnea. He also had significant abdominal distention and pitting edema. The patient was found to have constrictive pericarditis and was admitted for pericardiectomy. …
