Introduction. Acute myocardial infarction is a clinical manifestation of coronary disease which occurs when a blood vessel is narrowed or occluded in such a way that it leads to irreversible myocardial ischemia. ST segment depression in leads V1?V3 on the electrocardiogram points to the anterior wall ischemia, although it is actually ST elevation with posterior wall myocardial infarction. In the absence of clear ST segment elevation, it may be overlooked, leading to different therapeutic algorithms which could significantly affect the outcome. Case report. A 77 year-old female patient was admitted to the Coronary Care Unit due to prolonged chest pain followed by nausea and horizontal ST segment depression on the electrocardiogram in V1?V3 up to 3 mm. ST segment elevation myocardial infarction of the posterior wall was diagnosed, associated with the development of initial cardiogenic shock and ischemic mitral regurgitation. An emergency coronarography was performed as well as primary percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement in the circumflex artery, the infarct-related artery. Due to a multi-vessel disease, surgical myocardial revascularization was indicated. Conclusion. Posterior wall transmural myocardial infarction is the most common misdiagnosis in the 12 lead electrocardiogram reading. Routine use of additional posterior (lateral) leads in all patients with chest pain has no diagnostic or therapeutic benefits, but it is indicated when posterior or lateral wall infarction is suspected. The use of posterior leads increases the number of diagnosed ST segment elevation myocardial infarctions contributing to better risk assessment, prognosis and survival due to reperfusion therapy.

AbstractObjectives:We have performed supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy or with cricohyoidopexy for tumour (T) stage T2 and T3 laryngeal cancer cases and some T4 cases. We report the clinical symptoms and management, using this technique to avoid complications.Case report:Among patients undergoing the procedure, two cases manifested laryngeal chondritis following laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy. This complication was caused by C3–4 cervical osteophytes physically contacting the cricoid cartilage. Laryngeal microlaryngoscopy was performed, which revealed white, necrotic tissue in the posterior wall of the pharynx and persistent oedema of the neoglottis.Conclusions:When encountering a patient with an excessive osteophyte formation at the level of C3–4, one needs to take extra precautions when undertaking laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy or with cricohyoidopexy.

Abstract We present a case of a 48-year-old male patient who was admitted in our clinic for right nasal obstruction, antero-posterior mucopurulent rhinorrhea, recurrent right micro-epistaxis, hyposmia, cacosmia and right hemicrania. ENT findings and CT scan detects proliferative, polylobate, vascularized tumor formation occupying the right nasal nostril, with muco-purulent secretions lining the tumor formation. The tumor pushes the intersinusal wall to the side and the nasal septum to the contralateral nostril. The apparent origin is at the level of the right middle nasal meatus, but we could not identify a clear limit from the nasopharynx lateral and posterior wall. Resection of the entire tumor formation was performed under endoscopic control. The histopathological outcome revealed undifferentiated carcinoma; immunohistochemical tests were performed and support the myoepithelial origins.

Background: Incidence of perforation on posterior wall of stomach is rare throughout world; its occurrence has not been found till now in literature of central India. diffuse symptoms with delayed presentation to health center and poorly skilled faculty with facilities make a way to raise in total number of deaths associated with posterior gastric perforation. Objective: To report a rare case of posterior gastric perforation at a tertiary health care center in Central India, which would be first to be documented. Case Presentation: A 74-year-old male patient was referred to Department of General Surgery, AVBRH, with chief complaint of acute abdominal pain for two days. He had a history of alcohol consumtion which was stopped 2 years back A moderately distended, distinctly tender abdomen accompanied by guarding, rigidity and excluded bowel sounds was unveiled by abdominal examination. Patient has been resuscitated with intravenous fluids, antibiotics and analgesics. Consequently, an emergency exploratory laparotomy revealed a significant collection of purulent peritoneal fluid, 1x1 cm sized perforation on posterior wall of stomach. Perforation was repaired and thus patient recovered in a satisfactory way. Conclusion: And since posterior gastric perforation is extremely uncommon and expected to worsen, associated with increased morbidity and mortality leading to missed presence, this case report indicates that evaluation of patients with gastric perforation, identify risk factors and ability to repair perforations right away along with resuscitation will greatly enhance clinical outcome.

CONTEXT: Paranasal sinus cancer is considered rare, with an incidence of less than 1 per 100,000 per year, with the frontal sinus being the primary site in only 0.3%. We report a case of adenocarcinoma arising in the frontal sinus. DESIGN: Case report. CASE REPORT: A 59-year-old woman, secretary, came in February 1998 with a 4-month history of low intensity frontal headache. She denied contact with wood dust. On examination a non-tender swelling was noted over her right forehead next to the medial aspect of the right orbit. CT scan showed a soft-tissue mass involving frontal sinus with intracranial invasion through the posterior wall. The anterior ethmoid sinus and the medial aspect of the right orbit were also involved. MRI demonstrated dural thickening in communication with the frontal mass. She underwent an en-bloc tumor resection by craniotomy including orbital clearance. Histology revealed an adenocarcinoma. After surgery she had tumor recurrence, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy were started resulting in partial improvement.
