Nelson’s syndrome is a severe complication that may develop in patients with Cushing’s disease treated with bilateral adrenalectomy. Since pituitary tumors in Nelson’s syndrome are often aggressive, early diagnosis and careful management are essential. We report three cases illustrating this syndrome.

Brown tumors are bone manifestations of hyperparathyroidism (HPT). They usually occur in severe forms accompanied by signs of periosteal bone resorption. Their treatment mainly relies on parathyroidectomy.

We report a series of 9 cases of primary hyperparathyroidism revealed by a brown tumor. These clinical cases highlight the importance of phosphocalcic assessment in the presence of any bone swelling suggestive of a brown tumor.

Oncocytic thyroid carcinoma is a rare tumor characterized by the proliferation of Hürthle (oncocytic) cells. It is an aggressive tumor and is insensitive to radioiodine therapy. We report a series of five patients diagnosed with oncocytic carcinoma.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a frequent complication that generally evolves favorably; however, thromboembolic complications may occur. Pulmonary embolism is a rare complication. We report a series of five cases of type 1 diabetic female patients presenting with DKA complicated by thromboembolic disease, along with a review of the literature.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global health burden traditionally regarded as a metabolic disorder driven by insulin resistance, genetics, and lifestyle factors. Although scientific research has made considerable progress in identifying molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies, the disease is still widely considered irreversible. These approaches, however, overlook the deeper karmic origins of illness, which explain why patients are unable to restore normal pancreatic function or escape…

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing global health concern, characterized by insulin resistance, chronic hyperglycemia, and a range of associated complications. Traditional treatment regimens have largely focused on lifestyle changes and pharmacological interventions, but the search for novel therapeutic agents continues. Recent studies have explored the unique bioactive components of breast milk, which possess immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and metabolic properties. Among these,…
