Objective: Renal vascular thrombosis is a thrombotic blockage of the major renal arteries resulting in acute damage or chronic kidney disease. The study aims to analyze rare clinical cases of renal artery thrombosis with following renal infarction.
Materials and methods: The article present a retrospective study of examination and treatment results of patients diagnosed with the renal arteries thrombosis in the urological hospital of the Irkutsk Clinical Hospital No. 1 in the period 2012-2020.
Results and Discussion: During the entire observation period, there were two clinical cases of acute renal artery thrombosis. The 86-year-old woman developed thrombosis because of atrial fibrillation, which was probably the result of inadequate correction (insufficient dose of anticoagulant). Kidney infarction had complications like rapid suppuration because of chronic urinary infection and calculus of the renal pelvis. It resulted in nephrectomy with subsequent recovery. The second case was the 45-year-old man examined according to existing standards, and the diagnosed-on time in the first hours of the disease. However, complete thrombosis of the right renal artery neutralized the effectiveness of conservative therapy with warfarin. In this case, nephrosclerosis and renal failure were natural.
Conclusion: Renal artery thrombosis is a rare pathology that requires special attention from the clinician due to the high risk of renal function loss. Timely diagnosis and correct treatment tactics are especially important.

In this review article we summarized the differential diagnosis of radiological signs of pneumonia associated with COVID-19 infection and emphasized learning points.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a serious medical issue worldwide, because of its high prevalence, temporary disability and mortality rate. TBI is more common in young and middle-aged, i.e. the most active in the labor market, social relations of part of the population. TBI is damage to the brain from an external mechanical force, leading to temporary or permanent impairments of cognitive, physical, and psychosocial functions, with an altered state of consciousness. The diagnosis of TBI is a clinical decision, however, imaging, particularly Computed Tomography (CT) scan is a key in diagnosis, classification, prognosis, and follow-up. In this review, we have included the status of diagnosing TBI in both basic and clinical research. The objective of this study is to provide a brief overview of the various subtypes of traumatic injuries, their complications, along with both the non-invasive and invasive monitoring modalities necessary instances, with a brief analysis and literature review. For a detailed understanding and study of the topic, we included the CT scan data from our own research conducted at the GE LightSpeed VCT.
Difficulties encountered in diagnosing and treating COVID‐19 pneumonia and acute eosinophilic pneumonia during the pandemic from 2019 to 2021 led to the identification and study of the differential features of the two conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
