We report a 66-year-old woman with a mixed corticomedullary tumor of the left adrenal gland. The patient was found to harbor an adrenal incidentaloma while investigated for a spigelian hernia. Due to the atypical radiological features and the relatively large size of the adrenal lesion she underwent a left adrenalectomy following endocrine testing to exclude a functional lesion. Subclinical Cushing’s syndrome was suggested by the failure to obtain adequate cortisol suppression (less than 1.8 μg/dL) following dexamethasone administration pre-operatively; cortisol suppression was restored post- operatively following the excision of the tumor. Histology was consistent with a corticomedullary mixed adenoma, a lesion for which, there is paucity of published data regarding its natural history and long term outcome. The finding of this case highlights the importance of this extremely rare entity which should be included in the long list of causes of adrenal incidentaloma since cases with intra-operative complications have been described. The previously reported reappearance of this tumor in the contralateral adrenal gland emphasizes the need for prolonged follow-up.

  • History of Medicine on the Border Between Philosophy and Science
    Vol. CXXI • No. 2/2018 • August • Romanian Journal of Military Medicine Article received on January 31, 2018 and accepted for publishing on May 16, 2018. REVIEW ARTICLE History of medicine on the border between philosophy and science Mirela Radu 1 Abstract: Physicians have represented a long time the main transmitters of knowledge as they were real scholars. If Renaissance promoted the study of the human body anatomy and physiology, the next step made by practitioners of medicine was to spread the enlightenment. That meant the shift of the very purpose of their profession: from passive opposition to ailments towards an active involvement into the lives of the impoverished. In order to change the odds in the battle against diseases, physicians had the great burden to enlarge the cultural horizons of those whose health was in their hands. Therefore, one way of imparting knowledge was by publishing and spreading their attainments to the general public in a comprehensible way. Once people gained awareness of the dangers entailed by bad hygiene, the physicians’ role in society switched towards more cultural realms. At the beginning of the 20th century health care professionals achieved the next step in the becoming of medicine: setting up a new science to link humanities with pure science. In Romania, the main promoters of this new border science were Victor Gomoiu and Valeriu Bologa and they co-opted other intellectuals. Keywords: philosophy, science, history of medicine, alchemy, folklore The new involves acknowledging the past, gathering various ethno- transforming it and bypassing mistakes. The 20th graphic materials and century met the expectations of those who wanted to photos from all corners of know this history by setting up the Institute of History our country.

  • Medical Practice in Transition: the Case of Serbian Maternity Care Services and Their Users
    Biljana Stanković University of Belgrade, Faculty of Philosophy Serbia MEDICAL PRACTICE IN TRANSITION: THE CASE OF SERBIAN MATERNITY CARE SERVICES AND THEIR USERS Resources of Danubian Region: the Possibility of Cooperation and Utilization Editors Luka Č. Popović Melita Vidaković Djordje S. Kostić Belgrade Humboldt-Club Serbien 2013 ISBN 978-86-916771-1-4 BILJANA ST A N K O V I ć 306 MEDICAL PRACTICE IN TRAN S ITION : THE CA S E OF S ER B IAN M ATERNITY CARE S ERVICE S AND THEIR U S ER S Abstract. Drawing on the evidence from everyday medical practice and experiences of women, users of Serbian maternity care services, this paper will tend to point to some of the important conflicts and inconsistencies that are being reproduced in Serbian health care system that is going through transition. Analysis will mainly focus on the gap between the creation of new policies and clinical guidelines and their actual implementation in practice, as well as on the unsynchronized transformation of different actors involved in medical practice that leads to tensions between sources of knowledge/models of practice in medical care. Key words: healthcare system, health policy, clinical guidelines, medical practice, process of transition Introduction: complex and incoherent character of medical practice When we think or talk about medicine, we usually have in mind something that has been written in medical books or scholarly journals. There we find a broad range of medical knowledge – from reports about research results in different areas of biomedical science, to guidelines for best medical practice and information about new developments in medical technology.

Fisher’s test, however, showed for these receptors arose upon noticing their expression on a statistically significant result between metastasis and ex- skin, intestine and breast stem cells. pression of LGR5 with p=0.025. Methods: We examined the tissues of 53 patients who had Conclusions: It becomes apparent that patients with in- been diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the colon.

We measured the expression levels of by a more aggressive form of the disease with an increased LGR5 by immunohistochemistry and we correlated those and rate of metastasis.
