Secondary aorto-duodenal fistula: a diagnostic challenge in a patient with fever and anemia
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2024 Mar 12. doi: 10.17235/reed.2024.10358/2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 69-year-old male, three years post-endovascular exclusion for an abdominal aortic aneurysm, presented with asthenia and fever. An abdominal CT scan showed no gastrointestinal tract communications, abscess, or contrast extravasation. Tc-99m-HMPAO-labeled leukocytes scintigraphy with SPECT/CT revealed increased uptake on the posterior surface of the aortic graft, along with air bubbles in its right iliac limb. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed, revealing a duodenal ulcer in the transition between the second and t...

Role of H.pylori in Chronic Sore Throat by Using H.pylori Line
This study aimed to detect role of H pylori in chronic pharyngitis. 85 patients who had chronic pharyngitis with normal CBC, WBCS, lymphocyte, monocyte and eosinophils with negative ASO titer and throat swab. These patients did H pylori line to detect H pylori virulent antigen. 77 patients with chronic pharyngitis are positive H pylori and after medical treatment 68 patients became negative. H. Pylori line is a new test for detection of the virulent strains and screening H pylori carrier at risk of developing gastric and duodenal ulcers as well as cancer.

Phenolics and terpenoids with good anti-inflammatory activity from the fruits of Amomum villosum and the anti-inflammatory mechanism of active diterpene
Bioorg Chem. 2024 Feb 15;145:107190. doi: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107190. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe fruits of Amomum villosum are often considered a medicinal and food homologous material and have been found to have therapeutic effects in chronic enteritis, gastroenteritis, and duodenal ulcer. The aim of this study is to discover the anti-inflammatory active ingredients from dried ripe fruits of A. villosum and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms. We verified that the inhibitory activity of the ethyl acetate extract was superior to Dexamethasone (Dex), so we ultimately chose to study the ethyl acetate extract from ...

Removal of an impacted apricot pit from a scarring duodenal stenosis using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) stone extraction technique
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2023 Nov 6. doi: 10.17235/reed.2023.10019/2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 66-year-old man presented with repeated vomiting for 5 days. Initial gastroscopy showed gastric retention while computed tomography (CT) revealed a 1.8*1.1 cm, oval-shaped, high-density object in the duodenum. Considering his past medical history of a surgical repair for duodenal ulcer perforation 20 years ago, a diagnosis of foreign body (FB) impaction causing gastric outlet obstruction was established. After gastric lavage, a second gastroscopy was performed. A brownish round FB impacted upon scarring stenoses at the junct...
