Misleading Interpretation

The atypical signs and symptoms, the misleading interpretation of symptoms by the patient's family, and the remarkable radiograph in the following case emphasize the difficulty in early diagnosis of pelvic appendicitis. CASE REPORT A 10-year-old boy came to the Emergency Department of Community Memorial Hospital, Toms River, New Jersey, complaining of pain in the pubic bone of four hours' duration. His mother thought he might have fallen on the cross-bar of his bike and was concerned about a possible fracture of the pelvis. The boy denied any nausea, vomiting, anorexia, or change in bowel habit and had no pain elsewhere. He had noticed no gross hematuria.

We report a case of necrotizing fasciitis in an 84 year-old man affected by diabetes mellitus. The patient was admitted in the Emergency Department of our hospital because of an acute and strong left leg pain that began almost 8 hours before admission. The left leg had an increased size and a movement limitation, with a hard haemathoma in the left thigh with subcutaneous crepitus. The lesion became worse and larger rapidly, with a wide extension from the back to the popliteal fossa. An antimicrobial therapy was immediately started with morphine for pain. A surgical debridment was performed, but the patient died for multiorgan failure. Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare and mortal disease, the early diagnosis is a challenge for the Emergency Department where patients are admitted and assessed primarly.

Blunt trauma abdomen leading to gallbladder perforation is a rare event usually recognized on evaluation and treatment of other visceral injuries during laparotomy. The gallbladder is relatively a well-protected organ. Isolated gallbladder perforation is extremely rare. The clinical presentation is variable, early diagnosis and treatment is of extreme importance to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with gallbladder perforation. We report a case of a patient who sustained isolated gallbladder injury following blunt trauma abdomen to emergency department in Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi.

Acute Form

Jejunogastric intussusception is an established complication following any type of gastroenterostomy. In its acute form it presents with abdominal pain and lump suggestive of obstruction. It is also a rare cause of haematemesis. Chronic and intermittent presentation has also been described. It is a surgical emergency in its acute form. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is required to avoid mortality. We report here a case that had a history suggestive of recurrent symptoms and ultimately presented as an acute emergency in the emergency department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh   DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbcps.v30i1.11366   J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2012; 30: 44-47
