Introduction: Pulmonary hernias are rare conditions, most are the results of an injury or previous thoracic surgery. Case report: We present a case of a 48-year-old woman injured in a car accident. The examination in the trauma centre revealed a chest injury with herniation of the lung parenchyma into the chest wall and fractures of long bones of lower limbs. Initially, an osteosynthesis of the left femur and the right tibia fracture were performed. The patient underwent a subsequent surgery to repair the pulmonary hernia. Conclusion: A pulmonary hernia is diagnosed either directly during a clinical examination or by imaging. A sovereign diagnostic method is a computed tomography. The method of treatment is a surgical repair with primary suture of the chest wall defect or implantation of a mesh to repair the pulmonary hernia.

Primary neuroectodermal tumors (PNET) have been known to have associations with Ewing Sarcoma family. Tumors that originate from lung parenchyma are a rarity and fatal as well. While the presenting symptoms are non-specific, diagnosis requires histological examination, utilizing immunohistochemical markers such as O13, HBA-71, and 12E7. Treatment is centred around surgical resection and chemotherapy. The authors present one such case, where early diagnosis and appropriate treatment have resulted in tumor regression and symptomatic-free period since last three years.

Energy drinks have been around for a long time, but they have just become popular in the markets in the last few years. This is a case report on fatal toxicity involving suicidal ingestion of a traditional energy drink called “Sukuday”. An autopsy of the corpse was done and it revealed multi-organ congestion and the presence of spume in the respiratory tract. The toxicological analyses of a sample of Sukuday revealed essentially alcans (C14 -C31).C24 H38 O4 probably 1, 2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, diisooctyl ester also called (Diisooctyl Phthalate, DIOP) was found at 22.8%, or the C16H22O4 (1, 2 Benzenedicarboxylic acid, mono [2 ethylhexyl]) ester also called (Mono [2-ethylhexyl] phthalate, MEHP). Traces of oxycodone were detected and identified by UPLC DAD/UV and confirmed in GC-MS. The literature on the toxicity of such substances was discussed. This case report is a description of a problem, which has become a public health problem.

Introduction: Evisceration of the lung is a rare consequence of open chest trauma that can be fatal. Evisceration of the lung refers to the protrusion of lung parenchyma through a defect of the thoracic wall, without parietal pleural or skin coverage. Case report: A 20-year-old man was brought to the emergency department (ED) with left lung evisceration from stab wounds. The eviscerated lung was left in place, and the patient was not intubated in the ED. He was immediately taken to the operating room (OR) for intubation and surgical repair. Other significant injuries were ruled out, the eviscerated lung was retrieved, the chest wall defect was closed, and the patient recovered well. He was discharged after seven days in good condition. Conclusion: The initial management of patients with lung evisceration is critical to prevent rapid decompensation and death. Appropriate ED airway management, lung retrieval in the OR, and thoracic wall repair is recommended for patients with lung evisceration.
