The Emberá, tourism and indigenous archaeology: "rediscovering" the past in Eastern Panama
No full textIn this article we discuss the interest of the Emberá (an Amerindian indigenous group) in collecting knowledge about material remains of the past-such as colonial and pre-colonial ceramic fragments - that are easily found in Eastern Panama. We situate this interest of the Emberá (and their desire to learn more about the past) within the context of indigenous tourism, which has inspired the articulation of new narratives about Emberá history and identity. In addition, the accidental discovery by the Emberá of ceramic fragments from past periods has instigated and facilitated archaeological investigation, a process that resulted in a reciprocal exchange of knowledge between the Emberá and the academic investigators. Such a reciprocal relationship, we argue, can contribute towards the decolonisation of archaeology, create synergies between anthropology and archaeology, and enhance indigenous representation in tourism

Polycystic Horseshoe Kidney: A Rare Coexistence as a Challenge for the Surgeons. Case Report [Policistinis pasagos inkstas: retas derinys ir iššūkis chirurgams. Atvejo analizė]
No full textAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) with concomitant horseshoe kidney is an extremely rare entity. In this case, we report a 45-year-old male patient with ADPKD and a horseshoe kidney who demonstrated hypertension, urological complications, and discomfort symptoms such as pain, breathing difficulties, and abdominal meteorism. After preoperative assessment and planning, the patient underwent nephrectomy. Bilateral nephrectomy without dividing the isthmus was performed successfully. The isthmus, which had complicated vasculature and was full of cysts, remained intact, avoiding severe bleeding and in-fection. The postoperative course was uneventful. Keeping the isthmus intact in such cases is a challenge for the surgeon. The rarity of polycystic horseshoe kidney in combination with the altered abdominal anatomy requires the proper preoperative strategy in order to avoid intraoperative complications. © 2022 Dionysios Prevezanos, Nikolaos Garmpis, Dimitrios Dimitroulis, Anna Garmpi, Vasiliki E.

Dimitrios Tsamis Karatasos : a symbol of Greek, Serbian and Bulgarian friendship
No full textTwo Serbian texts extol the contribution of Dimitrios Tsamis Karatasos to the Balkan joint effort to throw off the Ottoman yoke. These texts are analysed by the author within the historical framework of their period, so that the man’s personality and work may be accurately evaluated from a fresh viewpoint. More specifically, the author conducts a research on the tombstone of Dimitrios Tsamis Karatasos, which he discovered himself at Naoussa, and the octet engraved on it, which is also published here. The work is illustrated by seven plates, of which four have not been published previously
All that Glitters is not Cholecystitis. A Rare Presentation of Acute Pericarditis Mimicking Cholecystitis and Review of the Literature [Ne viskas, kas blizga, yra ūminis cholecistitas. Retas ūminio perikardito, imituojančio cholecistitą, atvejis ir literatūros apžvalga]
No full textAcute pericarditis is the most common inflammatory disorder of the pericardium, responsible for approximately 5% of visits to the emergency departments, concerning chest pain without myocardial infarction. We report a case of a 41-year-old man who presented to our hospital, complaining about retrosternal and epigastrium pain. The transthoracic echocardiogram showed pericardial effusion while the electrocardiogram and laboratory findings revealed acute pericarditis. An abdominal ultrasound revealed gallbladder edema. The pericardial effusion was treated with pericardial catheter insertion, diuretics, and nonsteroidal anti-in-flammatory drugs. This case shows that acute pericarditis can be clinically presented with many ways, one of them being gallbladder edema. Furthermore, in this case-based review we present all cases of simultaneous appearance of pericarditis and acalculous cholecystitis or gallbladder edema. © 2022 Anna Garmpi, Christos Damaskos, Nikolaos Garmpis, Vasiliki E.

The Exemplary Life of Dimitrios Vikelas (1835-1908)
No full textThis paper describes the "satisfying curve" of Dimitrios Vikelas' life journey, starting from Syros in 1835, moving via Constantinople, Odessa, and Syros again, to London, Paris and finally Athens. It explores Vikelas' multiple aspects, as merchant, writer, traveller, lecturer and essayist, Olympic founder, educationalist, book collector and philanthropist, all of which were united in the public-spirited man of letters (logios). It sets Vikelas in the context of the Greek commercial diaspora, the world of the London expatriate Greek community, and the dynamic society of late nineteenth-century Athens, beginning in the 1870s to act as a magnet to Greek expatriates. The author stresses two qualities of Vikelas: his belief in the idea of a progressive Greek state marked by advances in education, culture, tourism and standards of public life; and the self-awareness and experience which inform his autobiographical writings, not only his memoir My Life but also his last such work, The War of 1897
