Abstract

AA amyloidosis is a complication related to several chronic inflammatory conditions like cancer, autoimmune diseases and infections, among others. The disease implicates amyloid fibrils deposit in tissues leading to organ failure. Renal involvement has been closely associated with amyloidosis and sometimes with tuberculosis too. Therefore, it is important to achieve a renal biopsy that allows elucidating the etiology of the clinical picture in order to provide the correct treatment to the patients. In this paper, we present a case of renal amyloidosis secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis which debuted as nephrotic syndrome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

5. High altitude pulmonary edema at 2640 m altitude associated with an acute Rhinovirus infection. First case in the literature.

Abstract

High altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is a multifactorial condition that may occur after ascent of high altitudes, especially in genetic predisposed individuals. Diagnosis is challenging and could lead to potentially lethal complications such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We present one of the few reported cases of HAPE below 3000 m of altitude, and the first to our knowledge to present with a concomitant acute Rhinovirus infection, precipitating and complicating the diagnosis and clinical course. Clinical manifestations, treatment, and outcomes are shown below., Competing Interests: We have no conflicts of interest to disclose., (© 2022 The Authors.)
