Plasmodium ovale infection in Sri Lanka: distant exposure and incidental detection of hyperparasitemia: a case report
ConclusionA long incubation period, incidental detection ofP ovale in a blood smear, and hyperparasitaemia are the atypical presentations of this case. Postoperative bacterial infection and stress may have reactivated the dormant malaria (hyponozoites) in this patient with an unusual picture. Coinfection of malaria with bacterial sepsis is a challenge in the management of the patient. As the Anopheles mosquito vector exists in Sri Lanka, the risk of indigenous transmission is high from such imported cases ofP. ovale. (Source: Journal of Medical Case Reports)

Management of a Rare Challenging Case of Duodenal Ampullary Lipoma
AbstractDuodenal lipoma is a very rare entity with limited case reports present in literature. But duodenal ampullary lipomas are even more rare in nature. Owing to the recent advances in endoscopy and modern imaging techniques, more cases are being diagnosed and treated. However, challenge lies in performing a less invasive and least morbid procedures to treat them surgically in such complex location of tumour. To study the diagnosis and treatment of duodenal ampullary lipoma in a young male patient and challenges faced during surgical management. A 15-year-old young boy presented to us with complaints of intermittent upp...

Not only enuresis: do not disregard organic disorders
We report a 7-year- old female with a history of recent onset of sphincter troubles and recurrent low urinary tract infections. She presented urinary urgency associated to daytime incontinence, bedwetting almost every night in the previous 3 months and sometimes encopresis. The physical and neurological examination was silent, no psychological or social problem intercurred. As first approach, she was treated with deamino-delta-D-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP) 120 mcg associated with oxybutynin 5 mg and educational therapy, for 3 months without benefits. So, she underwent a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spinal cord,...
