Presentation
Abstract A 15-year-old girl with the "MASS" phenotype (meeting several of the minor criteria for Marfan syndrome) presents with a new onset low-pressure postural headache. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Therefore, physicians caring for children with Down syndrome should be familiar with the presenting features of AML. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]
A man in his 70s with hypertension, benign prostatic hypertrophy, and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) presented for a second opinion regarding treatment of MDS. Three years prior he had developed neutropenia and mild thrombocytopenia. [jamanetwork.com]
At present it has been assigned no separate MIM number, but shares that of the Barlow syndrome [MIM*157700]. [ m itral valve prolapse, a ortic anomalies, s keletal changes, and s kin changes.] [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Workup
The diagnosis is therefore usually made only after a thorough workup. [sciencebasedmedicine.org]
See Workup for more detail. Treatment of Meigs syndrome Exploratory laparotomy with surgical staging is the treatment of choice. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Treatment
Epidemiologic mass treatment refers to treatment of whole communities (mass treatment) or high-risk subgroups within communities (targeted presumptive treatment) based on high STD prevalence rates. [journals.lww.com]
Treatment is based on the individualÕs symptoms. Source: Genetic and Rare Diseases Information Center (GARD), supported by ORDR-NCATS and NHGRI. [diseaseinfosearch.org]
Treatment will depend on your child’s symptoms, age, and general health. It will also depend on how severe the condition is. There is no cure for Marfan syndrome. Treatment is based on which organs are affected. [massgeneral.org]
The pathophysiology and treatment of spontaneous intracranial hypotension are discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The most widely used treatment is surgical removal of the tumor, known as transsphenoidal adenomectomy. [pituitary.mgh.harvard.edu]
Prognosis
As for the prognosis, based on longer series, 5 the most important factors to keep in mind are the state of the disease and tumor histology. [archbronconeumol.org]
Notwithstanding, except for the risk of pulmonary embolism, the long-term prognosis of BD patients with intracardiac thrombi seems to be good as long as they receive only medical management. Financial support None. [scielo.org.mx]
Thus, the purpose of the current studies was to determine if saliva contains biomarkers that can be used as diagnosis/prognosis tools for SS. [iovs.arvojournals.org]
Prognosis Meigs syndrome is a benign disease, if properly treated. No recurrence after sugical removal of the mass has been reported. Clinicans should be aware of this rare and treatable condition. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Etiology
[…] through laboratory diagnosis to determine the etiologic agent(s). [journals.lww.com]
Additional diagnostic testing, usually imaging and biopsy, is indicated to determine etiology. CT with IV contrast is the most valuable imaging technique. [merckmanuals.com]

Etiological possibilities include intrathoracic malignant tumor, which is responsible for 60%–85% of cases. [archbronconeumol.org]
Origin of pleural effusion The etiology of pleural effusion is unclear. Efskind and Terada et al theorize that ascitic fluid is transferred via transdiaphragmatic lymphatic channels. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology and treatment of spontaneous intracranial hypotension are discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The genetic basis of the syndrome is fully considered, and all aspects of the pathophysiology of IGF-I deficiency are described. Data derived from the recently generated mouse model of LS are reviewed and compared with the human LS experience. [books.google.com]
