Abstrak : Exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) is a medical condition resulting from strenuous exercise characterized by skeletal muscle damage followed by the release of intracellular components into the circulation. ER has various clinical manifestations and is associated with various complications that increase morbidity and mortality. Case: A 23-year-old male came to the emergency department with decreased consciousness after playing futsal. After urinary catheter insertion, brown-colored urine was observed. Laboratory examination showed increased serum CK level (199,011 IU/L), increased serum creatinine, hyperkalemia, and metabolic acidosis. The diagnosis was exertional rhabdomyolysis, acute kidney injury, hyperkalemia, and metabolic acidosis. Conclusion: The condition of the patient improved after aggressive intravenous rehydration, intravenous insulin, and sodium bicarbonate therapy. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management can reduce complications, morbidity and mortality.

Abstrak : Spontaneous perirenal hemorrhage (SPH), also known as Wunderlich syndrome, is a rare condition that can potentially progress into life-threatening non-traumatic retroperitoneal hemorrhage. Common symptoms include acute flank or abdominal pain, a palpable flank mass, and fulminant hypovolemia, collectively referred to as Lenk’s triad, and diagnosis is typically established radiologically using a CT scan. Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) - a rare, immune-mediated hypercoagulable disorder that occurs in only 5 cases per 100,000 people per year worldwide. It is immune-mediated, characterized by persistent antiphospholipid antibodies (APLA) that cause both arteries and venous thrombosis, and can present as peripheral arterial disease (PAD), acute arterial occlusion, and early atherosclerosis. Case : A 33-year-old woman with chronic kidney disease (CKD) presented with SPH and incidentally diagnosed with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and APS. Conclusion : Conservative management was beneficial for SPH without the need for surgical intervention; however, antithrombotic therapy for PAD posed additional challenges before the patient was eventually discharged in improved condition for outpatient follow-up.

Abstrak : Bladder trauma is the second most commonly injured organ in the genitourinary system after the kidney. The injury can be caused by a variety of mechanisms, including blunt trauma, penetrating trauma, and iatrogenic procedures. Case: A 21-year-old male with multiple injuries following a motorbike accident. Upon examination, a foreign body was detected in the right thigh. A CT scan revealed a metal rod impaled in the patient’s bladder without any contrast leakage. The patient was planned for foreign body removal and bladder repair. During the removal, bladder leakage was detected. The patient underwent foreign body removal and bladder repair. Discussion: This case underscores the importance of considering bladder injury in trauma patients, even in the absence of classic clinical signs such as haematuria. It also highlights the potential limitations of initial imaging techniques like cystography in detecting bladder injuries when foreign bodies are present. Conclusion: This case emphasizes the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion and considering intraoperative exploration or additional diagnostic methods when imaging findings are inconclusive. Revising the diagnostic protocol for trauma patients with suspected bladder injury, especially if a foreign body is present, is essential to avoid missed diagnoses and improve patient outcomes.

Abstrak : Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor originating from nasopharyngeal epithelium; it is endemic in several regions, including Indonesia. This malignancy is the fourth most frequent cancer case in Indonesia. The etiology is not fully understood. The risk factors involve interactions between genetic and environmental factors, including age, gender, family history of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, consumption of fermented foods, and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Early detection used EBV serology, EBV DNA plasma, and endoscopy; the IgG NPC strip is commonly used in Indonesia. The gold standard for diagnosis is biopsy and histopathological examination. The management of the disease depends on its stage. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has shown several advantages over conventional radiotherapy. Follow-up is necessary to evaluate the outcome and remission.

Abstrak : Cerebral tuberculoma is a rare but serious manifestation of tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in the central nervous system. This granulomatous lesion, characterized by necrotic tissue in the brain parenchyma, accounts for approximately 1.4% of all TB cases. It predominantly affects high-risk populations including children, HIV/AIDS patients, and immunocompromised individuals. Clinical diagnosis remains challenging due to nonspecific symptoms such as persistent headaches, seizures, and focal neurological deficits that often mimic brain tumors. Advanced neuroimaging, particularly MRI, plays a crucial diagnostic role by demonstrating pathognomonic ring-enhancing lesions with surrounding edema. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis typically reveals lymphocytic pleocytosis, though its sensitivity is limited. Current treatment protocols recommend prolonged (minimum 12 months) combination anti-tuberculosis therapy using isoniazid and rifampin as firstline agents. Adjuvant corticosteroids are indicated for managing paradoxical reactions and cerebral edema. Neurosurgical intervention becomes necessary for large lesions (>2 cm) causing mass effect or hydrocephalus. With timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment, the prognosis is favorable, achieving up to 85% cure rates. However, delayed intervention significantly worsens outcomes, emphasizing the importance of early recognition in endemic regions. This condition highlights the neurological burden of TB and the need for improved diagnostic strategies.

Abstrak : This retrospective study evaluates the impact of triamcinolone-assisted vitrectomy on intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery, with particular focus on comparing outcomes in patients with and without lens surgery. Methods: Medical records of patients treated at R.D. Kandou Hospital from May 2019 to May 2024 were reviewed, and pre- and postoperative IOP values were analyzed. A total of 35 patients met the inclusion criteria. Results: The results show a significant reduction in IOP at all postoperative intervals, with mean differences of 11.12 mmHg at 1 day, 8.60 mmHg at 1 week, 13.23 mmHg at 1 month, and 16.91 mmHg at 3 months postoperatively. Analysis revealed no significant difference in IOP outcomes between phakic and pseudophakic patients. Conclusion: These findings indicate that triamcinolone-assisted vitrectomy effectively lowers IOP, regardless of lens status.

Abstrak : Influenza is an acute respiratory infection (ARI) caused by the influenza virus. World Health Organization (WHO) states that influenza virus infection causes 99% deaths in children under 5 years of age in developing countries. Transmission between individuals is fast because the influenza virus is transmitted through droplets. Symptoms of influenza disease vary; most are mild and self-limiting, but in some cases, it can cause severe complications and have an impact on mortality. Pneumonia is one of the most common complications of influenza, especially in the pediatric population. Influenza vaccination is an effective option for preventing infection and its complications. Several studies have shown that influenza vaccination can reduce influenza cases and the incidence of influenza-related pneumonia hospitalizations.
