Objective: To report on a case of intravesical explosion during transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) which was managed laparoscopically and to review the relevant literature. Clinical Presentation and Intervention: During TURP, a loud explosion was heard, and a jolt was felt in the abdomen. A bladder tear was seen endoscopically. Systematic laparoscopic exploration showed no injury to abdominal organs apart from the irregular large bladder tear which was repaired laparoscopically. The patient had an uneventful recovery. Conclusion: Bladder explosion during TURP is an extremely rare and serious complication. It should be considered as a blast injury and systematic exploration of abdominal organs and vessels should be performed. The severity and urgency of the condition should not preclude the use of laparoscopy for exploration and repair.

Hamate Fracture

Background: Dislocation of all 5 carpometacarpal (CMC) joints of a single hand is a rare injury. Methods: The literature regarding CMC fracture-dislocations was reviewed and a case was presented. Results: The relevant literature was consolidated to clinically relevant categories including ‘Clinical Presentation and Diagnosis,’ ‘Management of CMC Fracture Dislocation and Hamate Fractures,’ and ‘Outcomes.’ Conclusions: The mechanism associated with this injury is often high energy that causes multiple simultaneous life- or limb-threatening injuries that could distract the examiner from identifying this injury. The case we present involves an axial dislocation of the carpus that resulted in dorsal dislocations of all CMC joints, dislocation of the hamate-capitate articulation, as well as fractures of the first metacarpal and the hamate.

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, a rare condition of unknown etiology, was first described by Kitamura et al. from Japan in 1960. It is characterized by a triad consisting of well-demarcated erythema, hyperpigmentation, and follicular papules. We report the case of a 50-year-old Caucasian male, who had asymptomatic symmetrical facial lesions since the age of 42. His family history was unremarkable. Published erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli cases of the last 10 years are summarized in this report to demonstrate the variability and differences in the clinical presentation of this uncommon diagnosis.

Addison’s disease is often accompanied by a number of cardiovascular manifestations. We report the case of a 30-year-old man who presented with a new onset dilated cardiomyopathy due to Addison’s disease. The clinical presentation, treatment, and outcomes of this rare hormone mediated cardiac disorder are reviewed.

Primary osteosarcomas of the bladder account for about 0.04% ofbladder neoplasms. Most of the patients in the literature expiredwithin 6 months and, in almost all of the cases in the literature,radical cystectomy with postoperative chemotherapy was thetreatment choice. A 79-year-old gentleman presented with grosshematuria. Cystoscopy demonstrated a 2- to 3-cm tumour along thelateral wall of the bladder. The tumour was resected incompletelyvia initial transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT), anda second TURBT was subsequently performed to fully resect theresidual mass. Surgical pathology from these 2 resections revealedosteosarcoma with invasion into the muscularis propria. Acystoprostatectomy was performed and final pathologic specimenrevealed high-grade CIS without evidence of residual osteosarcoma.Postoperatively, the patient did not receive chemotherapy orradiation and currently remains disease-free 2 years post-radicalcystectomy. Only 33 well-documented cases of primary osteosarcomaof the bladder have been reported to date. However, thereare only 3 cases in which TURBT resulted in complete resection.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare tumor of the urinary system. Only three cases of EHE of the bladder have been reported to date, and the biological properties of the tumor in this location remain poorly characterized. We report a case of primary EHE of the urinary bladder in a 58-year-old woman who was treated by transurethral resection and review the existing literature on the diagnosis and treatment of EHE of the bladder.

Salivary gland tumors are rare among all head and neck tumors. Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most commonly seen subtype, and 85% of the cases are located in the parotid gland. PA may very rarely be seen in minor salivary glands. Minor salivary gland PAs are mostly located in the hard and soft palates. Nasopharyngeal PA is very rare, and a total of 8 cases have been published to date. In this case report, a 51-year-old female patient who had nasopharyngeal PA with chondroid metaplasia is presented, and we review the relevant literature.

Assessment And Treatment

Wandering spleen and gastric volvulus are two rare entities that have been described in association with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The diagnosis is difficult and any delay can result in ischemia and necrosis of both organs. We present a case of a 13-year-old girl, previously operated on for anterior diaphragmatic hernia and intrathoracic gastric volvulus, that presented to our service for a subdiaphragmatic gastric volvulus recurrence associated with a wandering spleen. In this report we reviewed the literature, analyzing the clinical presentation, diagnostic assessment, and treatment options of both conditions, in particular in the case associated with diaphragmatic hernia.

The Authors report a case of vesical hemangioma; it was typical for site and clinical presentation whereas the age of onset and gross appearance were atypical. A TUR biopsy was performed without complications, but did not confirm diagnosis. A partial cystectomy was performed. A one-year follow-up, negative for recurrence, confirmed this procedure as the definitive treatment of choice.
