Early Enzyme Replacement Therapy Does Not Prevent the Protein Losing Enteropathy Syndrome in Neurovisceral Gaucher Disease

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gaucher disease (GD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by multisystemic involvement. With the advent of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), patient survival has improved, revealing new long‐term complications. We report a case of a 4‐year‐old male with severe neurovisceral GD who developed protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE ...

Esophageal Varices Bleeding in Portal Hypertension Due to Portal Vein and Splenic Vein Obstruction [PDF]

, 2002
Based on its relation to the liver sinusoid, increased pressure of portal vein can occur at three levels: presinusoid, sinusoid ,and postsinusoid. Obstruction of the presinusoid veins can be caused by extra- hepatic condition such as venous thrombosis ...

Shear wave elastography in assessment of liver stiffness and prediction of gastro-esophageal varices in patients with liver cirrhosis

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Background Shear wave elastography is an ultrasound applied technique used to measure tissue stiffness as a result of a disease. So, it can be used to evaluate liver stiffness as a result of liver cirrhosis and could correlate it with esophageal varices.
