Bachelor scurvy.

Scurvy occurred in an elderly man with fatigue, dyspnea on exertion, and extensive ecchymoses and brawny edema of the legs. Platelet count, prothrombin time, and partial thromboplastin time were normal, but serum ascorbic acid level was very low. Other signs considered to be classic and almost pathognomonic for were absent: bleeding gums, hyperkeratotic follicles, coiled hairs, and perifollicular hemorrhages. Reliance on these well-known features of scurvy may obscure or delay diagnosis of an easily cured disorder Severe scurvy is most commonly suggested by tenderness, extensive ecchymoses, and brawny edema of the lower extremities.

A brief historical review of vacuum extraction, indications for use, safety considerations, mode of action, delivery technique, and discussion of nursing implications is presented. Safety and effectiveness of vacuum extraction are supported by the results of a comparative study done at Mount Sinai Medical Center in which 256 vacuum extractions and 300 randomly selected forceps deliveries were performed. Indications for use, clinical status before application, maternal complications, and immediate neonatal complications are analyzed and discussed.

Spontaneously acquired factor VIII inhibitor in a non-haemophiliac child.

A three-year-old girl who had for two months suffered bruising after minimal injury was admitted because of diffuse ecchymoses and a large haematoma hindering elbow movement. These symptoms were attributable to the development of antifactor VIII inhibitor. No definite etiology was evident despite repeated immunological investigation. Although the inhibitor still persisted at high levels after two years, no further haemorrhage occurred, excepted haematomas three months after the onset of symptoms, in association with mumps.
