A sixty nine year old lady presented with life threatening upper gastrointestinal bleeding from the stomach. Multiple attempts at endoscopic localisation and therapy failed, as did one attempt at therapeutic splenic artery embolisation and two laparotomies. She finally underwent total gastrectomy. Gastric histology revealed necrotising arteritis consistent with polyarteritis nodosa. On retrospect she was found to have a number of features of polyarteritis nodosa, including the classic visceral microaneurysms on angiography. She responded to intravenous corticosteroids, but succumbed to a myocardial infarction three months later. Keywords: Polyarteritis nodosa; PAN; GI haemorrhage; Gastrectomy; Microaneurysms INTRODUCTION Although upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage is a commonly encountered clinical problem, it is a rare initial mode of presentation for a vasculitic process such as polyarteritis nodosa (PAN). Polyarteritis nodosa is a systemic necrotising vasculitis involving the medium and small sized arteries in many vascular beds. Though expansile arterial lesions (microaneurysms and ectasias) at arterial branch points are classical, occlusive arterial lesions may be at least equally and possibly more common.1 Gastrointestinal involvement includes bleeding, ulceration, infarction and perforation of hollow viscera including appendix and gall bladder.

Physiology of Dysphagia Dysphagia: difficulty in swallowing Swallowing: function of clearing food and drink through oral cavity, pharynx and oesophagus into stomach at an appropriate rate and speed Phases of swallowing: □ Oral phase: voluntary → Mastication of solids → form food bolus → Tongue movement to achieve glossopalatal seal → push food bolus or fluid against hard palate □ Oropharyngeal phase: involuntary → Activation of mechanoreceptors of pharynx → initiation of swallowing reflex → Soft palate elevates (levator veli palatini) → nasal cavity closed off → Larynx elevates (suprahyoid muscles) → larynx closed off (by epiglottis) → Pharyngeal muscles contract → food bolus delivered from pharynx into oesophagus □ Oesophageal phase: involuntary → Peristaltic movement of muscularis propria → food bolus delivered into stomach Dysphagia can be classified as □ Oropharyngeal dysphagia → difficulty with initiation of swallowing → Usually functional (i.e. due to neuromuscular diseases) □ Oesophageal dysphagia → failure of peristaltic delivery of food through oesophagus → Can be functional or mechanical (i.e. due to mechanical obstruction) - Page 193 of 360 - B.

Background: The number and the proportion of patients with non- H.pylori, non-NSAIDs peptic ulcer disease leading to upper gastrointestinal bleeding is believed to be increasing after eradication therapy for H.pylori. Patients and methods: Medical records of patients referred to the emergency room of Taleghani hospital from 2010 with a clinical diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (hematemesis, coffee ground vomiting and melena) were included in this study. Patients with hematochezia with evidence of a source of bleeding from upper gastrointestinal tract in endoscopy were also included in this study. Results: In this study, peptic ulcer disease (all kinds of ulcers) was seen in 61 patients which were about 44.85% of abnormalities seen on endoscopy of patients. Among these 61 ulcers, 44 were duodenal ulcer, 22 gastric ulcer (5 patients had the both duodenal and gastric ulcers).

Pulmonary embolism is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. A more significant line of research needs to be done to investigate thromboembolism in cancer. Ultrasonography is a reliable diagnostic bedside test for PTE in critically ill and immobile patients. In this review, we want to display a case with both obstructive and hypovolemic shock and how ultrasonography can assist us to diagnose it. Keywords: Cancer, Gastrointestinal bleeding, Thromboembolism, Ultrasonography, IVC collapse INTRODUCTION Gastrointestinal cancers are associated with a high incidence of thromboembolic events. Patients with major gastrointestinal bleeding who develop clinically apparent venous thromboembolism (VTE) exhibit a particularly difficult therapeutic dilemma because they are at substantial risk of recurrent pulmonary embolism in the absence of treatment, and of recurrent hemorrhage if treated with the anticoagulant [1]. Furthermore, in critically ill patients (cancer with shock) we can use ultrasonography as a diagnostic tool to evaluate the patient’s shock subtype and assess him for having a sign of thromboembolism [2].
