The rarity of primary seminal vesical adenocarcinoma (PSVA) coupled with mostly late and advanced presentation with high mortality makes it an unanticipated malignancy with poor prognosis. Although there has been sporadic reporting of cases, the dearth of literature makes standardised care a challenge. The detection has incorporated immunohistochemistry for establishing the site of origin as well as the differentiation of primary from metastatic cancer. Surgical management with seminal vesiculectomy continues to be the mainstay of treatment, but difficult anatomy and delayed intervention do lead to an increased chance of residual disease that may warrant further adjuvant chemoradiation. We present a case report where PSVA developed in a patient with Zinner syndrome—an observation that is extremely rare with a literature review of PSVA including the various aspects of management including contemporary diagnosis techniques.

: Infective Endocarditis (IE), a known complication of hemodialysis (HD), has recently been categorized as Healthcare-Associated Infective Endocarditis (HAIE). Single pathogen bacteremia is common, polymicrobial endocardial infection is rare in this cohort of the patients. We report a case of endocarditis caused by Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia), a first ever reported combination of a usual and an unusual organism, respectively, in a patient on HD. Clinical presentation of the patient, its complicated course ,medical and surgical management ,along with microbial and echocardiographic findings is presented herein. The authors believe that presentation of this case of HAIE may benefit and contribute positively to cardiac science owing to the rare encounter of this organism as a pathogen in infective endocarditis and the difficulties in treating it.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare medical disorder, which is most often found in the immediate postpartum period. OVT is rarely considered idiopathic. We report a case of idiopathic OVT with pulmonary embolism in a 33-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain. Computed tomography and postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of idiopathic OVT. To date, only 12 cases of idiopathic OVT have been reported. In this case report, we present a summary of these cases and a review of literature regarding management of idiopathic OVT.

Hematuria is a critical symptom that should properly be investigated. One of the rare causes is renal papillary hypertrophy. Literature review revealed only few reported cases. Biopsy in reported cases has shown hyperplasia of renal papillae with normal histology. We report a case of bilateral renal papillary hypertrophy in a 32 years old female presented with intermittent gross hematuria. Computed tomgraphy urography, cystoscopy and selective cytology did not show any positive findings. Retrograde flexible uretero-renoscopy showed enlarged renal papillae protruding into upper and middle calyces of both kidneys with clots and active bleeding in some. Holmium:YAG Laser ablation of hypertrophic papillae showed an effective minimally invasive management of the condition.

Type Of Injury

ABSTRACT Lateral swivel dislocation, a subtype pattern of dislocations occurring at mid tarsal joint is a rare type of injury. A medially or laterally directed force applied to the forefoot causes dislocation of the talonavicular joint but not subtalar joint. The calcaneum alongwith the remaining foot swivels on the intact interosseous talocalcaneal ligament. The present case report is a more rare lateral swivel type of dislocation of talonavicular joint in a 25-year-old male. The article also presents a comprehensive review of literature and management of such type of injuries of the hindfoot . How to cite this article Kapila R, Verka Ps, Garg Rs, Ahmed M.

Abstract Aim: The study is the Case Report of spontaneous parasitic myoma with omental vessel, and the management at Bahrain Defense Force Hospital. Case Report: A 35years old female was diagnosed, almost 20 cm, sub serous myoma with the pedicle of 2cm from the fundus of the uterus. There was a feeding vessel from the omentum. She underwent myomectomy after the resection of pedicle and omental vessel .Post-operative period was uneventful. Conclusion: Parasitic myoma is the type of subserous uterine myoma. Generally surgical management is required for the relief of symptoms and to avoid encroachment of nearby abdominal or pelvic structures which in turn leads to further complications.
