Crush injury with bone loss results in shortening the length of the thumb. Most of the immediate intervention is amputation and stump closure. Revision amputation with stump closure gives loss of functional length and the patient is unable to do daily activities as before. In most of all hand functions, the opposition of the thumb plays an important role. Reconstruction of the thumb with iliac crest bone graft with its functional length is one of the major achievements for the patient. As in our case, the patient is right-hand dominant he is more concerned about the functional length of the thumb, whatever the aesthetic appearance. Here we present a case of a 24-year-old male with thumb reconstruction in a severely injured thumb with loss of bone and soft tissue just distal to the base of the proximal phalanx. Nine months postoperatively, the patient showed a great outcome with restored thumb length, function, grip strength, and a good range of motion.

Published: September 2023

Sjogren's syndrome is a rare chronic autoimmune disease characterised by dry eyes and dry mouth due to autoimmune destruction of the lacrimal and salivary glands, which can occur concurrently with other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or thyroiditis. It can lead to renal complications such as interstitial nephritis and glomerulonephritis, with distal/ type 1 renal tubular acidosis which may result in life-threatening electrolyte imbalance. We present a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with complaints of multiple episodes of muscle weakness. Type 1 renal tubular acidosis was discovered to be the cause of her symptoms which lead to the subsequent diagnosis of Sjogren’s syndrome. This is rare presentation of Sjogren’s syndrome, and it poses a challenge to diagnosis. Early detection and diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome might be difficult due to existing diagnostic criteria, which contributes to a higher likelihood of missed diagnosis.

Immature teratoma is one of the rare malignant germ cell tumours presented in pregnancy. Here, we present 26-year-old pregnant women who had an incidental finding of left adnexal mass in an anomaly scan at 19 weeks of pregnancy. Laparotomy with peritoneal fluid cytology, left salpingo-oophorectomy and omental biopsy at 20 weeks of pregnancy revealed immature teratoma stage 1A, grade 2 in the histopathology report. However, she followed up with the metastatic mass in the pouch of Douglas at 30 weeks of pregnancy in magnetic resonance imaging despite being counselled for possible chemotherapy and surveillance. A baby with a good Apgar score and grade 3 immature teratoma in the metastatic mass was revealed following the exploratory laparotomy and cesarean section at 36 weeks of pregnancy. Fertility-sparing surgery with chemotherapy during pregnancy for high-grade tumours may result in a good prognosis.

Published: September 2023

The process of learning has been confined to the realms of educational institutions. Over the last ten years, the semantics of social media networks have evolved with the use of mobile gadgets. Consequently, nephrologists have realised the potential benefits of using these platforms for their educational and career development. Social media can change the horizon of nephrology education. The concept of bedside examination, teaching and sharing experiences have changed with the advent of Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and X (former Twitter). Other networking portals, such as WhatsApp, Telegram, X (former Twitter), and Pinterest, have also amassed the attention of selected users. Despite split opinions on the utility of social media, it is undeniable that it has influenced interaction between students and mentors. Resources ranging from online networks, blogs, visual aids, podcasts, online journal clubs, videos, live conference coverages, and tutorials have made it possible for nephrologists to stay informed and educated with recent updates. In this review, we discuss how social media can enrich nephrology academia, facilitate the sharing of research and access to fellowships and mentorship programs, provide career prospects to trainees, and broadcast scientific conferences while bringing nephrology societies together.

Background: Arm span is the closest physiologic measurement to standing height. Increased arm span to standing height ratio, which indicates a possible loss of height, due to aging, often results from osteoporosis-related vertebral collapse or other causes. This has possible consequences on lung functions.Objective: To evaluate the effects of aging related loss of height to severity of dyspnea.Method: Patients visited pulmonary function test laboratoryat Baghdad teaching hospital outpatient clinic department from first of November 2009 to thirty first of December 2010 for preoperative assessment were recruited to participate in our study. All recruited subjects were evaluated with a clinical history and physical examination followed by measurements of arm span, standing height, weight, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC). Patients 40 years old of age and older were included .Patients with chronic disabilities (cardiac, respiratory or systemic diseases) were excluded. Patients were classified according to their gender and Medical Research Council severity of dyspnea.Results: one hundred thirty one subjects aged 40 years and older were recruited for this study. Arm span to height ratio was significantly negatively correlated with FEV1/FVC ratio, FVC, and positively correlated with severity of dyspnea.Conclusion:There is a significant association between increased arm span to height ratio with increased severity of dyspnea. The role of arm span measurements in assessment of pulmonary function tests in older patients and the association between loss of height and dyspnea deserves further evaluation.
