The authors present the case of a 30-year-old female who was pregnant and contracted COVID-19. She presented with vaginal bleeding and eventually went on to miscarry. Here, we discuss the risk factor of COVID-19 for threatened miscarriage and spontaneous abortion as well as pregnancy being a risk factor for increased COVID-19 disease severity. The patient received casirivimab and imdevimab per emergency department protocol due to this increased risk.
The authors present the case of a middle-aged lady with two weeks of abdominal pain. Computed tomography imaging revealed sclerosing mesenteritis. Sclerosing mesenteritis is also known as mesenteric panniculitis and is a chronic fibrosing inflammatory disease that primarily affects the adipose tissue of the mesentery in the small intestine and colon. The clinical presentation, imaging findings, differential diagnosis, and therapeutic management are presented in this report. In our patient's case, she was able to be managed conservatively, without the need for surgery. This reflects the most benign and self-limiting natural history of the disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
