Cerebral Venous Thrombosis in a 17-Year-Old Female Patient: A Case Report.

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare disorder predominantly affecting young women. Clinical presentation is not specific and varies depending on the location of the thrombus. The diagnosis requires clinical suspicion with confirmation by images. Guidelines for treatment recommend heparin during the acute phase even in patients with intraparenchymal hemorrhage. It is associated with a good prognosis when diagnosed and treated promptly. We present a case of CVT and intraparenchymal hemorrhage in a 17-year-old female with severe headache, nausea, vomiting, and altered mental status. The patient was diagnosed with CVT secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). She showed improvement after anticoagulation and corticosteroids.

Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma With Lung Metastasis in a 29-Year-Old Male Patient: A Case Report.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an uncommon biliary neoplasm that is more frequent in male patients. CCA is categorized into intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (eCCA) associated with the anatomical origin location. The clinical presentation is non-specific and varies depending on the origin, iCCA is generally asymptomatic until advanced disease is present therefore this neoplasm presents a poor prognosis with a survival rate of two years. We present a case of iCCA with lung metastasis in a 29-year-old male patient with no risk factors for this malignancy.
