Vertebral Duplication represents the most severe aspect of the spectrum of Split Cord Malformations. It is a rare anomaly with very few reported cases. Associated other spinal anomalies along with severe neurovascular and genitourinary anomalies may also co-exist. We are reporting a case of a 21 years old adult female patient, who presented with history of trauma, incidentally detected to be having complete lumbar duplication along with dural sac duplication and multiple complex segmentation anomalies in the form of incarcerated lateral hemi-vertebra, butterfly vertebra and non-segmented lateral hemi-vertebra at D10 to D12 vertebrae. On Computed Tomography (CT) imaging these anomalies become well evident while the patient presented with no neurological manifestations or abnormalities. This is a rarely reported scenario in literature where no neurological symptoms are seen in a case of vertebral duplication.

Abstract Background CHARGE syndrome is a life-threatening congenital anomaly. The syndrome associations consist of coloboma, heart disease, atresia of the choanae, retarded growth and development, genital hypoplasia/genitourinary anomalies, and ear anomalies and or hearing loss. The aim of this paper is to describe and discuss a rare case of CHARGE syndrome. Case presentation During the routine dissection, atrial septal defect, overriding aorta from both ventricles, patent ductus arteriosus, duodenal anomaly, absent pancreas, right side descending and sigmoid, intestinal herniation in lesser sac, and left kidney anomaly were observed. Conclusions This rare case is of importance in re-considering the criteria of CHARGE and understanding the importance of the orchestrated morphologic driving forces of embryonic development.

Urological Emergency

AbstrakFraktur penis merupakan kegawatdaruratan urologi yang jarang dan sebagian besarterjadi pada trauma tumpul pada penis yang mengalami ereksi. Fraktur penis sering terjadipada saat hubungan seksual dan jarang terjadi pada trauma tumpul karena benturan. Traumamenyebabkan robekan dan rembesan darah pada tunika albuginea. Intervensi bedah dapatmemberikan hasil penyembuhan yang baik secara fungsional dan kosmetik. Dilaporkankasus pada laki-laki usia 22 tahun yang datang dengan riwayat nyeri dan bengkak pada penissetelah benturan pada stang motor saat kecelakaan lalu lintas satu jam sebelum masuk rumahsakit. Pemeriksaan fisik didapatkan bengkak, hematoma pada batang penis, deformitasberupa angulasi ke kiri disertai nyeri tekan. Pasien masih bisa buang air kecil. Hasil urinalisisdidapatkan eritrosit 60-70/LPB, sedangkan darah rutin dalam batas normal. Kami memutuskanmelakukan eksplorasi, tampak rupture pada corpus cavernosum dan diperbaiki dengan jahitanprimer pada corpus cavernosum yang robek. Pasien dirawat selama 3 hari dan pulang denganfoley-catheter terpasang. Kasus pasien ini adalah salah satu contoh kasus dari fraktur peniskarena trauma tumpul penis secara langsung yang bukan disebabkan karena hubunganseksual.AbstractPenile fracture is a rare urological emergency that occurs almost exclusively due to blunttrauma on erect penis. Penile fracture often occurs during sexual intercourse and is rare in blunttrauma from impact. Trauma caused rupture and hematoma of tunica albuginea. Early surgicalintervention gives good cosmetic and functional outcome. We report the case of 22 -year-oldmale who presented to the emergency department 1 hour following blunt injury of his penisafter traffic accident. In physical examination we found swelling and haematom of penile shaft,angulation to the left and tenderness. Mixturation was normal. There were 60-70 eritrocytes inroutinely urinary examination. There were no abnormality in routinely blood examination. Weperformed an exploration and found rupture at corpus cavernosum. The rupture was repairedwith primary suture. The patient was hospitalized for 3 days and discharged with folley catheterinserted. This patient was an example of penile fracture caused by direct blunt trauma outsidesexual intercourse which is a rare case.

Pulmonary Changes

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
