摘要:

Abstract:Patients undergoing intra‐aortic balloon counter pulsation (IABP) for acute life threatening cardiac disease usually have abnormal electrocardiograms (ECGs) and are prone to arrhythmias and conduction disturbances. We report a patient in whom movement of the electrocardiographic lead to the left leg by the balloon catheter caused artefact simulating a conduction disturbance and arrhythmi

摘要:

Abstract:Hemopericardium complicating acute myocardial infarction generally has a poor prognosis. Two cases of this complication, one due to subacute rupture of the free left ventricular wall, are reported. Both patients are still alive and well ten years after urgent surgical intervention. Good long‐term results are possible in this condition if diagnosis and surgical intervention are not delaye

摘要:

Abstract:The Guillain‐Barre syndrome and pemphigus foliaceus occurred simultaneously in a patient on long‐term treatment with D‐penicillamine. It is proposed that both conditions may have developed as a result of a disturbance of immunoregulation caused by D‐penici

摘要:

Abstract:Two known epileptics presented with abnormal behaviour. One was inattentive, aggressive and ataxic. The other carried out quite complex, though purposeless activity. EEG's revealed that the patients' behavioural abnormalities were due to uncontrolled seizures. Absence Status is an uncommon condition and its various manifestations can lead to delays in its recognition and treatment. It should be considered as a possible diagnosis in any patient who presents with recurring episodes of confusion.

摘要:

Abstract:We report the complication of cardiac tamponade occurring secondary to a pericardial effusion in a patient with persistently seronegative rheumatoid arthritis. The frequency and presenting features of this potentially life threatening complication of rheumatoid arthritis are reviewed and management of this complication is discussed.

摘要:

Abstract:A 65‐year‐old woman presented with an autoimmune hemolytic anemia and was subsequently diagnosed as having malignant lymphoma. Cytotoxic chemotherapy was followed by the development of fatal Legionnaires' disease, confirmed by isolation ofL. pneumophilaserogroup 6 from pleural and lung aspirate specimens. This is believed to be the first reported isolation of serogroup 6L. pneumophilain Australia. (Aust NZ J Med 1984; 14: 59

摘要:

Abstract:A case is presented of fatal veno‐occlusive disease of the liver in a patient undergoing treatment by whole abdomen irradiation for carcinoma of the ovary. She had also been exposed to herbal tea and chemotherapy, each of which may cause veno‐occlusive disease in its own right. Interaction of these agents is postulated and should be considered before submitting patients to combination treatment. (Aust NZ J Med 1984; 14: 61

摘要:

Abstract:A 58‐year‐old Chinese woman was admitted to hospital with a presumed hypersensitivity reaction to allopurinol. Her illness was characterised by high fever, eosinophilia, exfoliative dermatitis and jaundice. She developed fulminant hepatic failure and septicemia with a fatal outcome. Clinical details are presented and the possible relationship of allopurinol hypersensitivity to renal impairment is discussed. (Aust NZ J Med 1984; 14: 63
