RESUMO
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients are at risk for common and atypical infections. Superior diagnostics can decrease infection-related morbidity and mortality. A novel plasma cell-free DNA next-generation sequencing test detected an uncommon presentation of Chlamydia trachomatis and recurrent and metastatic complications of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia before standard microbiology.
RESUMO
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: After studying this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Understand updates in the basic science, epidemiology, and treatment of Dupuytren's disease. 2. Understand treatment with needle aponeurotomy, collagenase, and fasciectomy. 3. Understand advanced needle techniques for Dupuytren's contracture. 4. Understand the safety and effectiveness of a new treatment, collagenase. SUMMARY: The literature on Dupuytren's disease encompasses many specialties. Its treatment is generally by perforating, excising, or dissolving the affected tissues. This article reviews the changing understanding of this disease and treatment options.
