Laryngopharyngeal herpes simplex virus infection is rare and presents typically in the supraglottis. Findings on presentation can range from small mucosal lesions to fungating obstructive masses mimicking neoplasm. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Intravenous Administration

  Local cidofovir therapy for viral hemorrhagic cystitis could be an alternative to intravenous administration of cidofovir. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Intravenous Drugs

  Because of this infrequent dosing schedule, patients do not need to have a catheter surgically implanted, as is required for other intravenous drugs for cytomegalovirus. [aidsmap.com]

  The risk factor for HIV infection was intravenous drug use in five, and sexual risk relationships in three. [journals.lww.com]

• Crying

  A previously healthy, full-term, 4-month-old boy presented with progressively weakening cry, hoarseness, and increased work of breathing. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hodgkin Lymphoma

  We describe a 42-year-old man with AIDS and Hodgkin's lymphoma whose severe and recalcitrant cutaneous warts resolved following treatment with local 1% cidofovir. Clinically significant improvements were observed in a two-week period of therapy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Intestinal Atresia

  We report the occurrence of TS in a 20-month-old girl with multivisceral transplantation due to short-bowel syndrome secondary to intestinal atresia and gastroschisis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Keratosis

  Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is a rare entity, characterized by a follicular digitate keratosis predominantly affecting the face and variable degrees of hair loss, most severely facial hair, that occurs in immunosuppressed individuals, and is considered [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Bladder Pain

  Interstitial cystitis causes disabling bladder pain and is usually diagnosed in the absence of infection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Focal Neurological Deficit

  We report on a stem cell-transplanted patient with B cell chronic lymphatic leukemia who presented with a subacute onset of focal neurological deficits, gait abnormalities, emotional lability and dementia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Pulmonary Infiltrate

  In this study, we report 2 renal transplant patients who presented with fever and pulmonary infiltrates. Both patients continued to worsen despite antibiotic therapy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

OBJECTIVE: The treatment of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) continues to be difficult. Adjuvant pharmacological treatment is increasingly being used, and intralesional cidofovir injection remains the leading option. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Our results suggest that cidofovir-treated children have a better prognosis compared to those treated surgically only; the duration of treatment until eradication of JRRP was shorter in the former. [scielo.br]

Potent thymidine phosphorylase (TP) inhibitors with anti-angiogenic activity are required to improve the prognosis of patients with TP-positive tumors. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Cell death was specific as it was also present in a human proximal tubular epithelial cell line (HK-2), but not in a human kidney fibroblast cell line, and was prevented by probenecid. An inhibitor of caspase-3 (DEVD) prevented cidofovir apoptosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
