Over Time

The rare presentation of spontaneous, corpus cavernosal abscess with evident pus discharge is reported. The 19-year-old English man was successfully treated with surgical drainage and antibiotics with long-term sequelae in form of mild, left-sided penile deviation, but normal erectile function. Though he did not require any further surgical intervention for correction of chordee at that time, there remains a possibility of it getting worse over time, which may ultimately need surgery for correction. The possible aetiology, diagnosis, and treatment of this rare condition are briefly discussed.

Success Of Treatment

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia peritonitis has been only occasionally reported in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Because this microorganism has multi-drug resistance, its treatment is hard and long-term. The treatment might not be successful despite all the efforts and the process of peritoneal dialysis, and may terminate with loss of the catheter. In the present paper, S. maltophilia peritonitis developed in a 6-year-old girl patient, who underwent peritoneal dialysis due to bilateral dysplastic kidney, suffered from episodes of peritonitis frequently and required hospitalization, was presented with literature data. Even though the case received multiple antibiotic treatment and underwent endoluminal brushing (EB), the success of treatment could not be achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this patient is the youngest case in the literature.

Willebrand Factor

An 18-year-old man with a history of type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD) presented with a spontaneous pyohaemothorax. Type 3 VWD may present with both mucocutaneous and deep-seated bleeds, such as visceral haemorrhages, intracranial bleeds and haemarthrosis. There have been very few cases described in children of spontaneous pyohaemothorax. Management of this patient was challenging due to risks of bleeding following surgical drainage, requiring constant replacement with von Willebrand factor concentrate, while monitoring factor VIII levels to balance the risks of thrombosis.

It is of prime importance to be aware of various variants and thereby managing such challenging cases accordingly.Case presentation: We present a middle-aged female patient with subhepatic perforated appendicitis and peritonitis who underwent an exploratory laparotomy and appendectomy.Conclusions: Surgical management of such patients is challenging due to an atypical presentation. The surgical management of such patients is discussed with a brief review of literature.

First Time

Idiopathic infected hydrocele in infants is a rare, but well-documented, entity in English literature; however, occurrence of such a condition in a toddler is not yet documented. Here we report the case of an idiopathic infected hydrocele in a toddler for the first time in English literature. We also discuss a review of literature and demonstrate management of infected hydrocele by antibiotics without any surgical intervention, also for the first time in English literature.
