Diagnosis and Treatment of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Lower Lip: Case Report
A 67-year-old woman attended the stomatology clinic complaining of a wound on the lip, painful, with an evolution of 3 months. During this period, she was treated by a dermatologist for herpes simplex, but without resolution. Anamnesis indicated systemic arterial hypertension and previous stroke; she denied smoking or performing activities causing sun exposure. A physical examination revealed an exophytic ulcer on the lower lip with a crusted necrotic background, indurated rounded borders, soft base, 1.5  cm in size, and loss of the mucocutaneous line.

Metastatic prostate cancer mimicking a subdural hematoma: A case report and literature review
Publication date: Available online 4 July 2018Source: Journal of Clinical NeuroscienceAuthor(s): Andrew Nunno, Mahlon D. Johnson, Guan Wu, Yan Michael LiAbstractOccurrences of metastatic prostate cancer imitating a subdural hematoma are limited to a small number of case reports, even though prostate cancer spreads to the dura more than other types of cancer. Here, we present the case of a 64 year-old male whose prostate carcinoma’s metastasis mimicked a subdural hematoma, and he suffered a middle cerebral artery stroke. Prostate cancer’s high rate of progression to the dura is disproportionate to its relatively low r...

Metastatic prostate cancer mimicking a subdural hematoma: A case report and literature review.
Abstract Occurrences of metastatic prostate cancer imitating a subdural hematoma are limited to a small number of case reports, even though prostate cancer spreads to the dura more than other types of cancer. Here, we present the case of a 64 year-old male whose prostate carcinoma's metastasis mimicked a subdural hematoma, and he suffered a middle cerebral artery stroke. Prostate cancer's high rate of progression to the dura is disproportionate to its relatively low rate of brain metastasis. Furthermore, we explore the potential molecular implications of prostate cancer's propensity to spread to the dura. P...

Chemoprevention of Barrett ’s Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma
AbstractBarrett ’s esophagus is common in Western countries, but progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma is uncommon. Chemoprevention therefore needs to consider whether benefits outweigh risks given an otherwise healthy population. This will depend on the particular population at risk and the relative safety of a potential preventive agent. Most evidence regarding the potential benefit of chemoprevention of Barrett’s esophagus and prevention of progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma is based on observational studies such as case–control and cohort studies. Given the potential benefits and relatively low risks, pa...

A Case of Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke Caused by Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia after Detaining Hepatic Arterial Infusion Catheter
In Japan, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using reservoir system is recommended for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) whose hepatic spare ability is favorable. Arterial infusion catheter is commonly detained in hepatic artery via femoral or brachial artery. In our hospital, catheter is often inserted by puncturing the left subclavian or brachial artery considering the patient's activities of daily living (ADL) during long-term detaining. However, it rarely causes posterior circulation ischemic stroke because of the left vertebral artery branches on the path of catheter.

Successful deep brain stimulation for central post-stroke pain and dystonia in a single operation
Conclusions Deep brain stimulation targeting multiple brain networks in one operation is feasible and safe. Deep brain stimulation may be considered in some refractory cases of central post-stroke pain; however, it requires meticulous programming.

Multiple Thrombi in the Heart in Trousseau Syndrome Caused by Pancreatic Carcinoma
A 65-year-old woman presented to our emergency room because of sudden onset of right hemiparesis with severe fatigue. Neurological examination revealed right hemiparesis with right facial numbness and an extensor planter response on the right side.Magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging revealed multiple highintensity areas in both cerebral hemispheres and the right cerebellum. A diagnosis of acute stage of multiple brain infarctions caused by emboli was made. An abdominal computed tomography showed a pancreatic tumor with multiple liver metastases.

Adverse effects of doping with anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) in competitive athletics, recreational sports and bodybuilding.
Authors: Vorona E, Nieschlag E Abstract Despite the fact that sports organizations and legislators have introduced various mechanisms to discourage athletes from using performance and appearance enhancing substances a high percentage of athletes admits to their unabated application. In competitive athletics, bodybuilding and in recreational sports anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) continue to be the substances most abused. This review summarizes the side effects of AAS abuse on organs and system functions in both sexes. High doses of AAS cause a significant increase of erythrocytes und haemoglobin concentration, w...
