Metallic Ring

Strangulation of penis is a rare clinical entity, which requires urgent urological management to prevent its devastating outcomes. The treatment of penile strangulation is immediate decompression of the constricted penis to facilitate free blood flow. Many different techniques have been described in literature to remove the constricting penile foreign bodies, but there is no universally accepted technique. Each case needs individualized handling in removing the foreign body. The procedure should be done with as little discomfort to the patient as possible and under anesthesia. Here we present to you a case report on a rare case of a metallic ring penile foreign body causing penile strangulation.

Introduction: Richter's hernia is a rare entity representing a small percentage of all hernia cases. These are small fascial defects that entrap partial circumference of the bowel and vary in presentation with associated increases in morbidity and mortality. Case Report: A 78-year male presented with Richter's hernia of the umbilical region which was diagnosed intra-operatively. The content was the ileal wall with pre-gangrenous changes. Because of doubtful viability resection of the segment and end-to-end anastomosis was done. The postoperative period was uneventful. Discussion: In female and old age patients, Richter's hernia is common with the femoral and inguinal regions being the common sites. The presentation may vary from vague pain abdomen and swelling to gangrene and perforation peritonitis. Some patients present as intestinal obstruction while in some cases the presentation mimics acute gastroenteritis. Radiological investigations like X-ray, ultrasonography (USG), and CT (computed tomography) scan aid in diagnosis but most of the time diagnosis is made intraoperatively. Surgical reduction or resection is often warranted depending on the viability of entrapped segment. Conclusion: To diagnose and manage this deceptive clinical entity experience and expertise is required. Timely taken decision and intervention helps to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with it

Esophageal diverticulum with secondary bronchoesophageal fistula is a rare clinical entity that manifests as respiratory infections, coughing during eating or drinking, hemoptysis, and sometimes fatal complications. In the present study, we describe a case of bronchoesophageal fistula emanating from esophageal diverticulum in a 45-year-old man who presented with bronchiectasis. We summarize the characteristics of this rare condition based on a review of the relevant literature.

Choristomas are rare entities which are aggregates of microscopically normal cells or tissues in aberrant locations. They are a “heterotopic” rest of cells, as they appear as a tumor-like mass. Herein we report a case of cartilaginous choristoma in a 54-year-old male who presented with a swelling on right lower gingiva. The histopathological examination revealed features of a well circumscribed mass of mature cartilage in a dense fibrous connective tissue stroma.

First Case

Pulmonary angiosarcoma is a rare clinical entity with a poor prognosis and no established therapeutic strategies. We present the first case to our knowledge of metastatic pulmonary angiosarcoma, treated with checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy, and have an excellent response. Until now, patient has been treated with immunotherapy for 1 year, and his disease is stable and well-tolerated.
