Main causes for development of cholelithiasis in children were: hemolytic disease, especially sickle cell disease or hereditary spherocytosis. Non hemolytic stones in adults are primarily cholesterol-based. In younger children, many stones have predominantly calcium carbonate.......

Gastric Antral Vascular Ectasia (GAVE) is a rare clinical disease which can cause recurrent upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract bleeding. This is a condition in which the blood vessels in the lining of the stomach become fragile and become prone to rupture and bleed. It is responsible for the occurrence of about 4% of non-variceal upper GI hemorrhages. GAVE is also known as watermelon stomach because of its characteristic endoscopic appearance. The disease is usually associated with chronic illness, mostly liver cirrhosis and connective tissue diseases........

The monkeypox virus is a rare viral disease capable of causing severe illness in humans and animals. A sooty mangabey and a rope squirrel were the only known wild outbreaks of monkeypox, which may be transmitted through saliva or respiratory excretions. Humans may contract monkeypox by inhaling droplets from their respiratory tracts, contacting bodily fluids, or contacting their environment contaminated by infected patients. Nosocomial transmission has also been described. Monkeypox has a 6 to the 13-day incubation period, and symptoms include lethargy, chills, fever, headaches, swelling of lymph nodes, asthenia, myalgia, and back pain. Viral culture, electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry.......
