In this case report, we share our experience with an emerging complication in laparoscopic surgery caused by the use of barbed sutures for an off-label indication. We describe a postoperative volvulus caused by the adhesion of the small bowel and V-Loc suture after a ventral laparoscopic rectopexy in a 48-year-old female patient. We also suggest cutting flush the end of the V-Loc and extending the follow-up of these patients.

Risk Of Rupture

Incisional hernia Complicates only 2%-10%. Spontaneous evisceration of content is very rare but whenever it occurs, it demands emergency surgery, to prevent further obstruction, strangulation of bowel and to cover its contents. The hernial contents can be covered primarily by mesh repair if the general condition of the patient and local condition of the operative site allows or can be covered by skin followed by delayed mesh repair. Authors report such rare case of spontaneous evisceration of omentum in 35 years old female patient who was known case of incisional hernia for 2 years. Neglect for early operative intervention or delay in seeking the treatment for an incisional hernia increases the risk of rupture.

Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) of the foot is one of the most severe injuries of the foot and typically results from a fracture, crush or vascular injury. ACS, isolated to a single foot compartment, is a rare complication following a simple twisting injury of the ankle. In this article, the authors present the case report of a 25-year-old man who developed ACS, isolated to the lateral compartment of the foot, secondary to rupture of the lateral ligament complex and subsequent haematoma formation. An emergency fasciotomy was performed and the patient had complete resolution of his symptoms. ACS is usually associated with significant trauma, however, there are reported cases in the literature associated with a minor injury. In this case report, the authors describe how ACS developed following a simple ankle sprain playing sports in the absence of a high-energy insult or fracture.

Laryngeal Nerve Palsy

Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve palsy following thyroidectomy is usually attributed to surgery whereas sometimes the cause can be non-surgical and can result in adductor palsy. Bilateral Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (RLN) paralysis is a rare complication of thyroidectomy. We present a 35 years female patient who developed dysphonia due to bilateral adductor RLN palsy following total thyroidectomy. The clinical findings and recovery were suggestive of a non-surgical cause for palsy in this patient. The management of these patients differs and the knowledge in this regard is very important for the surgeons. Tracheostomy is not required, and recovery of the nerve occurs in most cases in adductor palsy.

AbstractA retropharyngeal pseudomeningocele after cervical vertebral fracture dislocation is an extremely rare complication and often associated with hydrocephalus. It usually presents with respiratory difficulty and dysphagia, sometimes as an incidental finding in radiological study. We reported a case of 45-year-old female patient who had posttraumatic lower cervical prevertebral retropharyngeal pseudomeningocele, found as an incidental finding in a routine radiological workup. Patient underwent ACDF but expired 2 weeks postoperatively due to respiratory failure. Although the prognosis of retropharyngeal pseudomeningocele depends upon the severity of initial trauma, early recognition and management can prevent enlargement of cyst and development of respiratory difficulty and dysphagia.
