Handlebar Injury

The small intestine is the third in frequency intraperitoneal organ which is injured after blunt trauma of the abdomen. In most of the cases, this type of injuries is accompanied by other injuries, which make it more difficult to diagnose. Failure of diagnosis and delay in treating these injuries significantly increase the morbidity and mortality of these patients. Abdominal visceral injuries after flipping the handlebar of the bike are common in children. Such injuries can cause injury to both solid and hollow abdominal viscera. Unlike children, adults’ abdominal visceral injuries after flipping the bike’s handlebar are extremely rare. A 25-year-old man was admitted to our department due to progressively abdominal pain after an accident with the handlebar of his bike. The subsequent CT scan after per os administration of contrast medium revealed the presence of free intraperitoneal contrast. It is a rare case of jejunal perforation after flipping the handlebar of the bicycle which was treated by partial removal of the injured part of jejunum and end-to-end anastomosis. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time we describe such an injury with this mechanism to an adult.

 The small intestine is third in frequency intraperitoneal organ injured after blunt trauma of abdomen. Peritonitis caused by isolated jejunum perforation is very rare. As most of these cases are accompanied with injuries with other structures in the abdomen, hence it is not suspected. Therefore failure in diagnosis and delay in treating these injuries significantly increase the morbidity and mortality of these patients. Here, we report a case of a 60 year old gentleman admitted in surgery department with severe abdominal pain, multiple episodes of vomiting followed to fast breathing and reduced consciousness. Our patient presented in septic shock, with toxic looks and clear cut rigid abdominal wall. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time we describe a case report on isolated jejunum perforation as a result of physical assault. Journal of Gandaki Medical College Vol. 10, No. 1, 2017, Page: 57-58

ABSTRACTHuman coenurosis is a rare zoonotic disease caused by the larvae of Tinea multiceps seen in sheep-rearing countries. We report the case of a 63-year-old male who was referred to our hospital with a working diagnosis of skull base chondrosarcoma. Histopathological examination after surgical excision revealed characteristic feature of coenurus with multiple scolices invaginating from the outer cuticular layer. Coenuri are often mistaken for giant cysticercal cysts and hydatid cysts. Despite its wide prevalence in cattle, only two cases of human coenurosis are reported from India till date. We report the third case from India.

Pseudocysts are one of the common complications of chronic pancreatitis. Usually they present with chronic abdominal pain and obstructive symptoms. The symptomatology mainly correlates with the location of the pseudocysts. Thoracopantreatic pseudocysts are rarely encountered in surgical practice. They can present in the acute setting with hemoptysis or rupture. They can also have an indolent course with dysphagia and other mass effects. We report a rare case of mediastinal pseudocyst with rupture into the bronchus causing massive haemoptysis.

Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus or Echinococcus multilocularis. Humans are accidentally infected with the parasite. The cyst is usually found in the liver and lungs and rarely occurs in other body parts. The present article describes a rare case of pelvic hydatid cyst in a young man who presented with nausea, vomiting, and right abdominal pain. Two large cystic masses were discovered during a CT scan in the patient’s pelvic region, resulting in right urinary tract hydroureteronephrosis. Additionally, the antibody index was used to confirm the presence of a primary hydatid cyst.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Hypodontia is the term used to describe the developmental absence of one or more primary or permanent teeth, excluding the third molars. It is the most commonly occurring developmental dental anomaly and can be a challenge to manage clinically. Hypodontia can occur in association with syndrome or it may occur in nonsyndromic patient. Bilateral occurrence is common but it is very rare to see two bilateral congenital missing teeth in a nonsyndromic patient. This case report presents a rare occurrence of congenital bilateral missing mandibular second premolars and mandibular lateral incisors in a nonsyndromic patient. How to cite this article Agarwal N, Chaturvedy S, Marwah N, Mishra P, Kanjani S.

The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was detected for the first time in China in December 2019. Soon after it was declared a pandemic. Main symptoms include fever, dyspnea, cough, muscle pain, headache, anosmia and ageusia, however a growing body of evidence shows that other organs can be affected. Gastrointestinal manifestations have been observed in a considerable number of patients and include abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomiting. The involvement of liver as well as pancreas has been also described, however there are only a few cases of acute pancreatitis reported in patients with COVID-19. Therefore, we present a case of 6-year-old child with mild acute pancreatitis and COVID-19 pneumonia.
