ABSTRACT In endemic areas, acute undifferentiated febrile illness has a wide differential with overlapping features that can lead to misdiagnosis. Although triple co‐infection with scrub typhus, dengue, and leptospirosis is extremely rare, high clinical suspicion and early detection are vital to avoid delayed treatment, multi‐organ dysfunction, and ...

Awake ECMO for Mid‐Tracheal Obstruction: When a Tracheostomy Isn't Enough
ABSTRACT Awake VV‐ECMO can be a life‐saving strategy for patients with near‐complete tracheal obstruction where tracheostomy and intubation are not feasible. Early multidisciplinary coordination enables safe airway control, tumor debulking, and stenting, facilitating both immediate stabilization and long‐term oncologic planning.

Exploring Pembrolizumab‐Induced IM3OS in a Patient With Bladder Cancer
ABSTRACT Pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), has transformed cancer treatment across various malignancies, including metastatic urothelial cancer. As the use of pembrolizumab becomes increasingly widespread, understanding its potential adverse effects is essential.

Abstract This report describes the complex management of an 11‐month‐old male cat with an intrathoracic tracheal avulsion following blunt trauma, a rare but critical injury typically associated with vehicular accidents. Presenting with severe dyspnoea 10 days after a car accident, the cat exhibited a marked narrowing of the tracheal lumen to 1.2 mm ...

Severe hyperglycaemia associated with prolonged isoflurane anaesthesia in an alpaca (Vicugna pacos)
Abstract Alpacas possess distinct glucose and insulin regulatory mechanisms compared with other species, often maintaining higher baseline blood glucose as a normal physiological adaptation. Inhalant anaesthetic agents can further disrupt glucose, insulin and potassium homeostasis, particularly during prolonged procedures.

Abstract A 6.5‐year‐old, spayed, female dog presented in acute respiratory distress. On admission, the dog exhibited dyspnoea, bradycardia, cyanosis and gastrointestinal signs, requiring immediate intubation and mechanical ventilation. Diagnostic evaluation revealed reduced butyrylcholinesterase activity, non‐cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, elevated ...
