Penoscrotal Transposition

Penoscrotal transposition is a rare congenital abnormality. We report a case presenting prenatally with ambiguous genitalia and renal anomaly on obstetric ultrasound and fetal MRI and discuss the postnatal examination and autopsy findings. We present a review of the literature, including associated gene abnormalities.

Rare Congenital Abnormality

Splenogonadal fusion is a rare congenital abnormality. In this case report, the diagnosis of splenogonadal fusion was made after the removal of an abnormal mass at ‘routine’ left herniotomy. A cautious approach at surgery resulted in no apparent damage to the testicle. A short review of the literature is included.

Space Occupying Lesion

Splenogonadal fusion (SGF) is a rare congenital abnormality in which there is a fusion between spleen and gonad. Approximately 150 cases have been described in world literature. SGF can be continuous, where there is a connection between ectopic and orthotopic spleen, and discontinuous, with no connection. In our paper we report a case of SGF in a 36-year-old female with ultrasound and MR findings of space-occupying lesion in lower abdomen, and a review of the literature.

Cyst Cavity

Colonic duplication cysts are a rare congenital abnormality commonly presenting before two years of age. In adults, it has been rarely reported, most often as an incidental finding. We report a case of 42-year-old female complaining of constipation and lower abdominal pain. Patient’s CT scan of the abdomen showed a cystic lesion at hepatic flexure and the diagnosis was confirmed endoscopically using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). The cyst was treated employing hot snare to expose the cyst cavity. On our literature search, there have been no reported cases of colonic duplication cyst treated endoscopically. We here discuss incidence, diagnosis, characteristics, and treatment of duplication cysts with special emphasis on endoscopic therapy.

Histopathologic Finding

Meckel diverticulum is the most common congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal system. Although most Meckel diverticula are asymptomatic, they can also present with bleeding, obstruction, or perforation. Helicobacter pylori is pathognomonic for the development of a peptic ulcer. We present a case report of a patient with a Meckel diverticulum with Helicobacter pylori colonising its heterotopic gastric mucosa. This is a rare histopathologic finding. We also reviewed the literature of other similar cases published in English.

Sacral Spine

Caudal regression syndrome (CRS) is a rare congenital abnormality in which a segment of the lumbo-sacral spine and spinal cord fails to develop. The severity of the morphologic derangement inversely correlates with residual spinal cord function. We present a case report of a 10-year-old girl with Group 2 CRS, to emphasize clinical and radiologic findings in this rare abnormality.

Anterior Aspect

Hanging is a common method of suicide and multiple autopsy findings can be observed at the postmortem examination. Simon's sign is a haemorrhage into the anterior aspect of the intervertebral discs of the lumbar region that can be observed in hangings and other traumatic causes of death. This finding is considered evidence of vitality. Several mechanisms have been proposed regarding bleeding development. In this paper, we present a case of hanging in which Simon's sign was observed at the autopsy. A review of the literature regarding Simon's bleeding has been performed, and a discussion of the potential mechanism is reported. Although Simon's sign may be observed in hangings, a careful evaluation of all the available data, including investigation, autopsy findings, and toxicology, is mandatory to avoid misinterpretation of death's cause and manner.
