BACKGROUND Non-traumatic bladder rupture, a rare yet potentially life-threatening condition, can stem from diverse factors such as malignancies, bladder inflammation, or bladder diverticulum rupture. Pelvic radiotherapy, in extremely rare instances, can lead to radiation cystitis and subsequent bladder fistula formation.

Unlabelled: B-cell lymphomas are highly aggressive forms of lymphoma that commonly present with lymphadenopathy, systemic "B" symptoms, or organ involvement making them easy to recognize; however, a small percentage of B-cell lymphomas can present without any typical symptoms or evidence of lymphadenopathy, resulting in delayed recognition and management. Isolated thrombocytopenia without anaemia or leukopenia is an unusual presentation of B cell lymphomas and may be misdiagnosed as immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Given the rarity of this presentation, we wish to report a case of a 76-year-old female who presented with palpitations, shortness of breath, and recurrent chest infections.

Methemoglobinemia is an uncommon yet potentially life-threatening condition that results from the oxidation of iron from the ferrous (Fe²⁺) to the ferric (Fe³⁺) state, rendering hemoglobin unable to effectively transport oxygen. This translates into a state of functional hypoxia despite adequate arterial oxygen tension. Among the various causes of acquired methemoglobinemia, recreational inhalation of alkyl nitrites, widely known as "poppers," is a notable but underrecognized trigger.
