Introduction: The development of molecular biology and cancer immunology has brought drastic changes in anticancer in recent years. Recently, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPIs) have emerged as new classes of anticancer therapies. Although generally considered less toxic than cytotoxic chemotherapy, these new drugs can cause significant side effects including thyroid dysfunction. We report the case of thyroiditis induced by Pembrolizumab (...

Introduction: COVID-19 is a pandemic related to SARS-COV-2 virus infection. It is most often manifested by an influenza-like syndrome with other symptoms that are more specific such as loss of smell and taste.Its severity is highly variable, ranging from asymptomatic to severe or prolonged forms.We report the case of a 47-year-old female patient, who is being followed for hypoparathyroidism, who developed severe and persistent cram...

Introduction: Papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common form of thyroid cancer. It is differentiated, slow growing and usually has a good prognosis. Its risk factors are not all identified; we note exposure to radiation, particularly ionising radiation, and certain genetic mutations which are currently being explored. The aim of our work is to study the relationship between papillary thyroid carcinoma and cervical cancer.Observation: We report the c...

Introduction: Thevenard’s disease is a sensory neuropathy with a type of ulcerative-mutilating acropathy of progressive course. It has a hereditary character with autosomal dominant inheritance. It is a scarce disease, which usually affects feet but can also affect hands. It causes disorders of thermoalgesic sensitivity, leading to painless ulcerations at the pressure points and then bone deformities with osteoarticular destruction and ‘cubic foot‘ appearance. R...
