Eyes
Anisocoria
- Over the next few days, while our patient was stabilized and his renal function improved he developed anisocoria due to a new ischemic stroke on the opposite side, complicated with brain edema.[jmedicalcasereports.com]
Skin
Insect Bite
- We present the case of a 57 year-old male who had a 5 year-history of an irregularly shaped verrucous infiltrative plaque related to and insect bite and posterior trauma due to the manipulation of the lesion.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Urogenital
Metrorrhagia
- Abstract We present first case report on itraconazole, a drug very commonly used for onychomycosis, used along with simvastatin that caused metrorrhagia.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Brain Edema
- Over the next few days, while our patient was stabilized and his renal function improved he developed anisocoria due to a new ischemic stroke on the opposite side, complicated with brain edema.[jmedicalcasereports.com]
Other ECG Findings
Ischemic Changes
- An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed atrial fibrillation (AF) with rapid ventricular response; his echocardiogram ejection fraction of 60% with no wall hypokinesia and computed tomography (CT) results confirmed ischemic changes in the area of distribution[jmedicalcasereports.com]
Treatment
- CONCLUSIONS: For patients with mild or moderate onychomycosis, we recommended a pure medication treatment or combination treatment with medication and laser.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- On day 17 of itraconazole treatment, she developed hypotension and hypoxemia shock after intravenous administration of itraconazole 200 mg, which was eventually reversed by steroid treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- RESULTS: The mucoadhesive tablets (n 171) did not show inferiority to itraconazole (n 172) in the treatment of OC.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Itraconazole is an antifungal imidazole used for the treatment of aspergillosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Co-administration of olaparib with rifampin resulted in a statistically significant decrease in the relative bioavailability of olaparib: C max treatment ratio, 0.29 (90% CI, 0.24-0.33); mean AUC treatment ratio, 0.13 (90% CI, 0.11-0.16).[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
- […] report highlights the importance of a high degree of clinical suspicion in order to diagnose and treat allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in patients with a long-standing history of severe asthma as early as possible as this has a major impact on prognosis[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Primary malignant melanoma of the vagina is extremely rare, with a poorer prognosis than cutaneous malignant melanoma.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Tumor expression and circulating levels of angiogenic factors have been correlated with aggressive tumor growth, predilection for metastasis, and prognosis in a wide array of solid tumors, including lung cancer ( 2–4 ).[doi.org]
Etiology
- This is the second report of this fungus as an etiologic agent of eumycetoma in humans.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The battery of diagnostic evaluations performed revealed no other positive etiological factor, leading to the diagnosis of DAH possibly induced by intravenous ITCZ with a positive drug lymphocyte stimulation test.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The etiological agents are in a clinical complex, which includes Sporothrix brasiliensis, Sporothrix schenckii, Sporothrix globosa, and Sporothrix luriei, each of which has specific epidemiological and virulence characteristics.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- On the basis of mycological features and the results of the sugar assimilation test, the etiologic agent was identified as Prototheca wickerhamii.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Serologic evaluations on presentation ruled out infectious diseases or other etiological factors. Liver function tests showed alanine aminotransferase 3330 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase 3250 U/L, and bilirubin 21 mg/dL.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
