Background and Objectives: Hypermethylation of the tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A and activating mutation of BRAF gene have been recently reported in thyroid cancers. To investigate the role of these two epigenetic and genetic alterations in thyroid tumor progression, methylation of RASSF1A and BRAF mutation were examined in thyroid tumors. Materials and Methods: During 2007 to 2017, 69 papillary carcinomas, 18 nodular hyperplasia, 3 follicular carcinomas, and 13 follicular adenomas were selected. The methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) technique was used in detecting RASSF1A methylation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single-stranded conformation polymorphism and sequencing were used for BRAF gene mutation study. Results: The hypermethylation of the RASSF1A gene was found in 84.6%, 100% and 57.9% of follicular adenomas, follicular carcinomas, and papillary carcinomas, respectively. Nodular hyperplasia showed a hypermethylation in 33.3%. The BRAF mutation at V600E was found in 60.7% of papillary carcinoma and 27.0% of nodular hyperplasia, but none of follicular neoplasms. The BRAF mutation was correlated with the lymph node metastasis and MACIS clinical stage. There is an inverse correlation between RASSF1A methylation and BRAF mutation in thyroid lesions. Conclusion: Epigenetic inactivation of RASSF1A through aberrant methylation is considered to be an early step in thyroid tumorigenesis, and the BRAF mutation plays an important role in the carcinogenesis of papillary carcinoma, providing a genetic marker.

Tetanus is a life-threatening infection that is rare in the developed country. Because of the rarity: of the disease, the clinician may be unfamiliar with the clinical presentation and unsuspecting of the diagnosis. However, tetanus can rapidly progress into lethal muscle spasms accompanied by respiratory insufficiency, and it has a mortality of 15 to 30%. The most common presenting symptom was trismus, followed by neck pain, dysphagia, generalized pain and facial muscle contractions. Dysphagia is a common symptom of tetanus, but not common as an initial symptom, the correct diagnosis and adequate therapy are likely to be delayed. Treatment involves administration of penicillin, tetanus immune-globulin, debridement of wounds, aggressive supportive care, and initiation of active immunization. We report an elderly woman presenting with dysphagia as an initial symptom of tetanus with review of literature.
