[ { "from": "human", "value": "As a physician engaged in clinical diagnostic reasoning, here is a case report from Pubmed, please analyze the input and accurately identify the diagnosis presented within it.\nINPUT: A 54 years old man presented with ED secondary to a robotic radical prostatectomy in 2005.

He had a history of hypertension, diabetes, and chronic renal failure, all of which were well controlled.

He made an unremarkable post-operative recovery and was discharged with the implant deflated to be reviewed in clinic. Over the following 3 months he had problems inflating the device due to a “sticky pump” and pain in the right iliac fossa. To exclude a device leak an magnetic resonance imaging was ordered which showed the reservoir to be full and centrally placed within the pelvis (Fig. A).\\nThe patient was then offered an exchange of pump but decided instead to have the device replaced with a malleable penile implant which was performed after an additional 3 months. The cylinders and pump were removed and a malleable Genesis implant inserted after a mini salvage washout. The reservoir was emptied and retained after the tubing was cut high. At follow up the malleable implant was excellently sited but the patient continued to experience right abdominal pain. An abdominal CT scan was ordered which revealed that the reservoir had migrated into the abdomen and had become wrapped around the caecum (Fig. B). Removal of the reservoir was planned initially by a laparoscopic approach although due to adhesions it was difficult to identify it. An open incision was then made in the right iliac fossa but the reservoir could not be found. A second midline upper abdominal incision was made and the reservoir retrieved for the left upper quadrant. A speedy recovery was made, the right abdominal pain resolved and the patient was happily having sexual intercourse.\nOUTPUT:" }, { "from": "agent", "value": "Erectile dysfunction, Peyronie disease" } ]

INPUT: A 51-year-old male, known case of Type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension and a chronic alcohol consumer in cirrhogenic doses, presented with fever and altered sensorium and yellowish discoloration of eyes and urine and myalgia for three days. The patient deteriorated showing confusion, aggressive behavior and altered sensorium without any motor deficit. On investigation, he was found to have deranged liver function tests. Chest X-Ray revealed bilateral homogenous opacities in the right lung, 2-D echo showed left ventricular hypertrophy. USG abdomen revealed hepatosplenomegaly with ascites and gall bladder wall edema. Tissue samples of lung, myocardium, liver, kidney, pancreas, spleen, adrenal glands, stomach and brain, were taken for histopathology investigation. On gross examination, the lungs were congested and boggy and liver was enlarged. The external surface was smooth with retained capsular sheen. Rest of the organs were normal. The selected specimens were formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded. Sections were cut at three micra and stained using the standard H&E and special stains such as PAS, MT, reticulin Perl, ZN, van Kossa and Congo red were carried out wherever required. All slides were examined and photographed on a Nikon eclipse Ni microscope.\nSections from the liver showed micro and macro-vesicular steatosis. Mild portal and periportal infiltrate composed of mononuclear cells was noted with a small fibrous expansion of the portal tracts. Bilateral kidneys showed mostly normal glomeruli. The tubulo-interstitium appeared unremarkable. Blood vessels showed intimal proliferation with onion skin appearance in some vessels. Cerebral hemispheres showed astrocytic swelling with a prominence of nuclei and nucleoli. Pons, medulla, and cerebellum showed normal histomorphology.

INPUT: A 58-year-old male smoker presented with a one-month history of exercise chest pain. His exercise ECG was borderline normal, so coronary angiography (CAG) was performed. The CAG revealed severe stenosis in the circumflex and right coronary artery (RCA). Borderline severe stenosis was also detected in the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery (, ). The fractional flow reserve value was 0.92.\nTwo stents were implanted in the RCA and circumflex artery, one after the other. Immediately after the procedure, the patient developed chest pain. An emergency CAG did not identify any culprit lesion.\nHalf an hour after the second CAG, the patient complained of severe chest pain. An ECG revealed ST-segment elevation in leads V1–4, consistent with anteroseptal MI , which had not been there before . The patient was taken immediately to the catheterisation unit.\nThere was no occlusion in the implanted stents but the stent in the RCA was under-expanded. Dilatation was performed, however, the patient continued to experience chest pain. Therefore, a stent was implanted for LAD stenosis. Initially, the chest pain decreased but then increased again. An echocardiogram revealed a localised apical pericardial effusion .\nThe patient’s chest pain remained constant for several hours, without any recurrence of elevated cardiac enzymes. His chest pain was attributed to local pericardial irritation due to coronary perforation by the guide wire during implantation of the stent .\nSeveral days after the procedure, the ECG showed complete resolution of the ST-segment elevation, with no pathological Q wave .

As a physician engaged in clinical diagnostic reasoning, here is a case report from Pubmed, please analyze the input and accurately identify the diagnosis presented within it. INPUT: A 55-year-old woman presented with increasing episodes of focal seizures. The initial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a mass lesion with signal void in the left frontal supplementary motor cortex (). Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) confirmed the diagnosis of an intracranial AVM in the left frontal supplementary motor cortex (). She underwent SRS using X-ray beams of 6 mV with a prescription dose of 25 Gy at the isocenter in a single fraction.\nThe follow-up MRIs demonstrated gradual obliteration of the AVM. Two years after the SRS, she developed recurrent headaches, and right-sided lower limb paresthesia. Contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1W) MRI showed an enhanced lesion at the previous AVM site, indicating brain necrosis (). Despite steroids therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, she suffered from repeated focal seizures and developed progressive hemiparesis. During the next 2 years, she was admitted to our hospital six times for symptoms of raised intracranial pressure, and treated with steroids. Four years after SRS, she was admitted to our hospital because of tonic seizure. Computed tomography (CT) scanning revealed microbleeding foci in the necrotic tissue (). T2W MRI showed a necrotic mass and surrounding massive edema in the left hemisphere ( and ). On DSA, neither residual AVM nor early draining vein was observed, which confirmed complete obliteration ().\nFDG PET was performed to rule out other epileptogenic foci ().

His neurological exam was normal including his memory, speech, cranial nerves, coordination, and motor and sensory examination.\nOvernight polysomnography with pH probe showed no OSA. He had 4 episodes of choking during non–rapid eye movement sleep. He was awake and interactive after the first 2 episodes (). He had 23 reflux episodes to distal esophagus, none of which were associated with his choking episodes. An awake “routine” EEG showed bihemispheric theta frequency slowing of the background activity without focal or epileptiform features. Long-term video EEG monitoring revealed 9 episodes of gasping/choking lasting from 32 to 90 seconds with an average of 45 seconds. Filtering electromyographic artifact and re-montaging uncovered rhythmic theta activity beginning approximately 10 seconds after the onset of the event and compartmentalized in F3/C3 region followed by a brief period of generalized slowing. The interictal EEG had no epileptiform discharges. On retrospective review, his sleep EEG montage showed similar abnormalities associated with his gasping episodes (). He required levetiracetam, phenytoin, and valproic acid to achieve adequate control of his seizures, and he was eventually discharged on carbamazepine and levetiracetam. OUTPUT:

The Ki-67 labeling index reached up to 80%–90%. Tumor cells were positive for EBV-encoded RNA in situ hybridization, EBV latent membrane protein-1 (LMP1), EBV nuclear antigen-2 (EBNA-2), but negative for HHV8. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with EBL, not PEL, arising in the PJP-associated cavitary lung lesion. He was treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy along with anti-microbes for 6 months, followed by chemotherapy. OUTPUT:
