Pathological personal history 1 month prior hospitalization for complicated acute appendicitis + pyelonephritis + severe thrombocytopenia (autoimmune treated with corticosteroids) with septic shock, appendectomy was performed, due to torpid evolution, intensive care unit with placement of central venous catheter treated with intravenous antibiotics is performed, CT scan is performed of thorax, abdomen and pelvis in search of aggregate pathology; finding multiple renal lithiasis that conditions hydronephrosis and reactivation of pyelonephritis, so he continued with antibiotic therapy and underwent endoscopic lithotomy, due to febrile persistence and with a positive blood culture result for candida Albicans, intravenous antifungals (anidulafungin) were started for 1 week, with improvement satisfactory for what was decided his discharge. During hospitalization it was required to transfuse 2 globular packages and platelet plasmapheresis as well as replacement of calcium, phosphorus and potassium.

  • Choroidal Granuloma

    Apr 23 2019 by Purva Patwari

    22-year-old male patient presented with blurring of vision in the right eye noticed since last one week. He was asymptomatic a week ago when he noticed the blurring in his right eye. On examination his vision was 6/6 in both eyes. Anterior segment was normal. Posterior segment was normal for the left eye. Right eye examination revealed a clear vitreous cavity with choroidal granulomas scattered throughout the fundus. The present picture shows choroidal granulomas with OCT segment passing through the parafoveal lesion showing subretinal fluid accumulation and corresponding thickening of the retinal layers. CT scan reveals heterogeneously enhancing lymph nodes showing conglomerationin the hilar region-possibility of tubercular etiology.
