Acute non-immune hemolytic anemia in enteric fever due to nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi: A case report

Nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi is a well-known cause of enteric fever, and its prevalence is increasing worldwide. However, the incidence of enteric fever complicated by non-immune hemolytic anemia without co-existing thalassemia or glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is rare. In this case report, we present a case of acute non-immune hemolytic anemia in enteric fever caused by nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi.

Primary antiphospholipid syndrome in a male presents with acute digital ischemia: Dramatic response to glucocorticoid

We present a rare case of primary antiphospholipid syndrome in a 38-year-old male who presented with painful digital ischemia. Early initiation of anticoagulation and addition of glucocorticoid led to a significant improvement in the patient.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome: Delayed diagnosis in a 14-year-old child with end-stage renal disease

We report a case of a 14-year-old boy with a typical phenotype of BBS who remains undiagnosed until the development of end-stage renal disease.
