    Abstract Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is commonly associated with underlying respiratory disease. The authors present the case of a 68-year-old non-smoker, admitted with a possible acute coronary syndrome, who deteriorated in hospital secondary to total left lung collapse as demonstrated on chest radiograph. There was no significant history of respiratory disease. Histology from bronchoscopy and lavage indicated lung carcinoma; however biopsy and CT staging demonstrated APBA. This is the first report of lung collapse secondary to ABPA in which initial bronchoscopy suggested underlying carcinoma.

    Abstract A case of antiepileptic hypersensitivity syndrome presenting as an acute septic illness is reported. A 67-year-old man, with a history of essential hypertension (treated with amlodipine) and recently diagnosed nocturnal epilepsy (treated with phenytoin), presented initially with an acute pneumonic illness with periorbital oedema. This was treated successfully with antibiotics and his phenytoin was changed to carbamazepine due to concerns regarding the periorbital oedema. He was re-admitted the following month with a history of weight loss, rigors, night sweats and high temperatures. Investigations revealed very high inflammatory markers. Despite extensive tests, no source of infection, autoimmune disease or malignancy was identified. The carbamazepine was then stopped and over the next 5 days the patient's symptoms gradually resolved. The patient's haematological and biochemical abnormalities returned to normal and he was discharged home. Since discharge he has been very well with no further sequelae.

    Abstract Introduction: Numerous studies have been conducted in developed countries to evaluate the impact of interventions designed to reduce hospital admissions or length of stay (LOS) amongst frail older people. In this study, we have undertaken a systematic review of the recent international literature (2007-present) to help improve our understanding about the impact of these interventions.
    Methods: WE SYSTEMATICALLY SEARCHED THE FOLLOWING DATABASES: PubMed/Medline, PsycINFO, CINAHL, BioMed Central and Kings Fund library. Studies were limited to publications from the period 2007-present and a total of 514 studies were identified.
    Results: A total of 48 studies were included for full review consisting of 11 meta-analyses, 9 systematic reviews, 5 structured literature reviews, 8 randomised controlled trials and 15 other studies. We classified interventions into those which aimed to prevent admission, interventions in hospital, and those which aimed to support early discharge.
    Conclusions: Reducing unnecessary use of acute hospital beds by older people requires an integrated approach across hospital and community settings. A stronger evidence base has emerged in recent years about a broad range of interventions which may be effective. Local agencies need to work together to implement these interventions to create a sustainable health care system for older people.

    Abstract Background: Optimal management of carcinoma of the Bartholin gland is not yet defined. Patients with locally advanced disease have historically been managed by radical and, occasionally, exenterative surgery. Although the management of advanced vulvar cancer has shifted toward conservative management with primary chemoradiation, there is limited information on the similar approach to the management of advanced Bartholin's gland carcinoma.
    Case: We present a woman with stage IVA basaloid squamous carcinoma of the Bartholin gland. She was managed with primary chemoradiation in an attempt to spare her the morbidity associated with exenterative surgery. We discuss a rationale for the use of chemoradiation in advanced Bartholin's gland carcinoma.
    Conclusion: Conservative management of advanced carcinoma of the Bartholin gland with primary chemoradiation may be appropriate while sparing patients the sequelae of exenterative surgery.
