Aortic aneurysm presenting as Budd Chiari syndrome.

Budd Chiari Syndrome is the eponymic designation of symptomatic post sinusoidal venous obstruction, whether or not this is associated with hepatic vein occlusion or vena caval obstruction. Dutta and associates (1) classified the syndrome into two distinct types. Type I involves obstruction to the hepatic veins while Type II pertains to an obstruction in the inferior vena cava above the entry of hepatic veins. We report a case of thoraco-abdominal aortic aneurysm presenting as Type II Budd Chiari Syndrome.

Comparative evaluation of the antihypertensive effect of timolol and propranolol in patients with essential hypertension.

Fifty patients with essential hypertension were studied for the antihypertensive effect of timolol and propranolol. In 16 out of 25 patients on timolol therapy (64%) blood pressure could be brought well under control (defined as diastolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg) while with propranolol 13 out of 25 patients (52%) responded. Side-effects were negligible with timolol as compared to propranolol therapy. This study revealed that timolol is an effective and safe drug in essential hypertension, and is tolerated better than propranolol by the patients.
