AbstractFibrosarcoma of the skull is an extremely rare condition. We report a case of a male patient surgically treated by radical tumor excision and plastic reconstruction with a free myocutaneous latissimus dorsi flap. Revascularization on the side of the intervention was verified intraoperatively by using an infrared thermography camera in the follow-up period to evaluate flap vitality in addition to standard clinical monitoring. We observed no complications and achieved a good aesthetic result.

Although an ascending aortic thrombus is a rare condition, it can cause serious complications of thromboembolism. Here we present a rare case of a patient who was hospitalized due to ileal arteries embolization caused by emboli from a giant thrombus in the ascending aorta. After 10 days anti-coagulation therapy, we performed a surgery to replace the ascending aorta containing the strip organized thrombus with a synthetic graft. During two years of postoperative follow-up, no recurrence of aortic thrombosis was found. Although the exact cause of this thrombus remains unclear, we believe that it is important to perform a surgery as soon as the presence of an ascending aortic thrombus is confirmed, which could help preventing the major recurrent embolic events.

ABSTRACTA rare case of a 42-years old man presented with repeated hydrocephalus due to the neurocysticercosis cyst (NCC) in the lateral ventricle. Patient was operated previously 2½ years back for a similar lesion at same site. Both times he was treated endoscopically with removal of the cyst. Interestingly there was no parenchymatous lesion at any stage of follow up. Isolated recurrent intraventricular NCC is a rare condition that has never been reported in the literature.

Persistent genital arousal disorder is a rare condition characterized by unwanted intrusive symptoms of sexual arousal without specific context. Their possible aetiologies and treatments are multiple and mostly based on case reports. We aim to do a comprehensive review of persistent genital arousal disorder and describe a case of a postmenopausal woman who developed this disease and, during the follow-up, was diagnosed with advanced endometrial cancer, reminding physicians to keep in mind the possibility of multiple diagnosis in the same patient, including malignancy. Although there is no description of this association in the literature, the possible aetiologies of persistent genital arousal disorder are diverse, and we sought this rare case should be disclosed.

Uterine prolapse and bladder exstrophy (BE) during pregnancy is a rare condition. The aim of this study was to present a rare case of pregnancy complicated by both bladder exstrophy and uterine prolapse. A 39-year-old pregnant woman (gravida 2, para 1) presented to the maternity department at 39 weeks of gestation with labor pain. Physical examination showed regular uterine contractions; the cervix was completely out of the vaginal opening with dilatation of 3 cm and effacement of 30%. She had a history of multiple surgeries for correction of bladder exstrophy and also suffered from uterine prolapse. In active labor, abnormal fetal heart rate tracing happened, so an emergent cesarean section was planned, and a healthy neonate with the normal Apgar score was born. At regular follow-up until four months after delivery, there was no sign or symptom of uterine proplase. Multidisciplinary management of patients with BE and uterine prolapse may result in optimal perinatal outcomes. Uterine prolapse may disappear after delivery, even in the complicated case of bladder exstrophy.

Introduction: The use of associated less invasive techniques can be an alternative skin rejuvenation treatment. Objective: To demonstrate the efcacy and safety of the 4T treatment. Methods: Retrospective study of patients that underwent rejuvenation treatment using 4 different techniques simultaneously: polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) lling, fractional CO laser, 2 radiofrequency, and botulinum toxin. More than 1,400 patients who underwent this treatment between December 2009 and July 2019 were analyzed. Results were very good in all patients submitted to the 4T technique as documented by pic Results: tures, assessment of the medical team and by the patients. Follow-up was similar to the single use of CO2 laser with edema for 2-3 days, additional 3-4 days until complete skin scaling and decrease of the swelling (downtime 5-7 days). It was possible to reestablish the natural volumetric loss caused by ageing and there were no complications in any patient. Conclusion: Treatment with the 4T technique is effective and safe for facial rejuvenation and can enhance a good aesthetic result as assessed by physicians and patients.

Multiple epidermoid cyst is relatively rare condition now a day. They are asymptomatic, but cosmetically unaccepted. Once infected cause fatal complication like Fournier`s gangrene and septicemia. They are successfully managed surgically by complete excision with good cosmetic result and minimum morbidity. Here we report a case of 44 years old male patient with symptom of multiple epidermoid cyst over scrotum for last 10 years.In this case complete excision of scrotal wall with cyst followed by mobilizing scrotal skin and primary suturing was done.

Peripheral Giant Cell Granuloma or the so called “Giant Cell Epulis” is the most common oral giant cell lesion. It is described as non-neoplastic, hyperplastic lesion occurring exclusively on gingival/alveolar crest that appears as a overgrowth of tissues, following trauma or irritation arising from periosteum or periodontal membrane. It can be sessile or pedunculated with size usually less than 2cm. Although being uncommon, this lesion carries a lot of uncertainity in terms of its etiology, growth potential, biological behavior (recurrence), histogenesis of its cells and its treatment. We hereby report a case of a 49-year old male patient, with peripheral giant cell granuloma in mandibular posterior region, who was successfully treated and is on regular follow up since 6 months.

Abstract Introduction This is a case report of a rare condition of pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa (P-MAIVF). Case presentation The patient was a 42-year-old Filipino gentleman. He first presented to us in 2014, for routine echocardiographic examination as a part of a preoperative assessment for a non-cardiac surgery. Patient was asymptomatic and had a history of bicuspid aortic valve, which was complicated by endocarditis in 2006, and was treated with antibiotics. Echocardiography findings: Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed a bicuspid aortic valve of no hemodynamic significance . A P-MAIVF was noted by Transesophageal echocardiography as a cavity expanding posteriorly into the left atrium from the left ventricular outflow tract, with a narrow neck at the junction of the aortic posterior cusp and the anterior mitral leaflet (Figure A). The cavity showed the characteristic expansion during ventricular systole, and collapse in diastole. Color flow showed the flow through the neck in systole and emptying during diastole (Figures C,D). There was mild mitral incompetence and no fistula was detected. Diagnosis was confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance (Figure B). Follow up Because of the known complications of this condition, some of which are potentially fatal (such as rupture into the pericardium and tamponade), he was offered a surgical repair, which he had refused. Alternative conservative follow-up strategy was implemented and we had the opportunity to follow him for more than 5 years. During these years he was asymptomatic and uncomplicated. There was no change in the size of the pseudoaneurysm or its flow pattern. Conclusion This report demonstrates a rare case of P-MAIF as a complication of bicuspid aortic valve endocarditis and a long-term patient survival of a potentially fatal condition without corrective surgery.

Tumoral calcinosis is a rare condition characterized by solitary or multiple, periarticular masses. Surgical excision of the tumoral calcinosis lesion is a well-documented treatment, but recurrences are not uncommon. A case of 42 year old male patient of tumoral calcinosis presented to us with history of repeated surgical excision twice in past 8 years for recurrent swellings. He was started on IV zoledronic acid and the patient has shown improvement after two years with no recurrence in follow up.
