Endovascular embolization (EE) has become an effective method for the treatment of intractable epistaxis (IE). However, complications such as facial pain, headaches, aphasia, hemiplegia, and transient blindness can also occur during or after surgery. In this article, we report a rare case of IE with residual intravascular guidewire after EE. Open surgery was used to remove the guidewire. However, to avoid serious complications such as massive hemorrhage, only part of the guidewire was removed.

Abstract Background: We report the rare case of an adult with a primary extranodal polymorphous hemangioendothelioma at dorsum, treated with endovascular coiling followed by open surgery resection. Clinical history, findings of spinal arteriography, histopathological findings and combined surgical procedure are reported.Case report: A 22-year-old male patient complained of a dorsal mass that has been increasing in size, painful, soft, no mobile and without neurological symptoms. A vascular tumor was suspected and an endovascular followed by an open surgical approach was performed. Histopathological diagnosis of an extranodal polymorph hemangioendothelioma was documented and a total resection was confirmed by free-tumor resection margin. The postoperative course was uneventful. Conclusion: Polymorph hemangioendothelioma is a rare vascular tumor. given the high vascular features of the lesion and, therefore, the high rate of bleeding during surgery.

The transobturator tape (TOT) procedure has become practically widespread worldwide. Complications seem to be rare, but recognizing them intraoperatively is the most significant step because some of the complications which may appear in postoperative period can be challenging for both physicians and patients. The purpose of this case, with this patient who was operated on with open surgery, is to evaluate this rarely seen unrecognized and uncommon bladder perforation after TOT procedure and thus make some contribution to the literature. Here, we present a case report about the treatment of a 48-year-old woman patient with unrecognized and uncommon bladder perforation after TOT procedure, 5 months postoperatively. Cystoscopic evaluation is not recommended routinely, but it must be performed if the patient is complicated enough to create doubt and also the surgeon's skill and ability are not sufficient enough to operate decently.

COVID-19 is an infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Now there are increased cases with super infections by mucormycosis, which were rarely reported in the beginning of the current pandemic of COVID 19. Herewith a case of 47 year-old male patient of post COVID-19 infection having severe hypoxia and was on ventilator, received steroid treatment and also known case of HIV/AIDS. Now admitted to our hospital having fever, facial pain, and swelling mid-face region. His RT-PCR test was positive. On clinical, radio imaging and on histopathological findings diagnosed as maxillary mucormycosis. We are presenting this rare case for its clinical, radio imaging, and on histopathological findings.

Abstract Cirsoid aneurysms (arteriovenous malformations [AVMs]) are Anomalous fistulous arteriovenous communications of scalp with ill-defined natural course that are rarely encountered in neurosurgery. Patients with AVM of the scalp present clinically with headache and either a small innocuous-looking subcutaneous scalp lump or a large, pulsatile mass with or without bruit, which has a propensity to massive hemorrhage. Complex vascular anatomy and interconnections and high shunt flow make their management difficult. We report a rare case of a 40-year-old man who presented with a swelling over his occipital region that progressively enlarged over the course of 6 years. Being high flow shunt surgical excision was attempted.

Bladder Rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare disease. It can be diagnosed by imaging and histological examination and managed using multi-modal therapy. Herein, we report a large non-metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma mass positioned in the bladder which was successfully eradicated through open surgery.

Background: Multiple splenic artery aneurysms (MSAAs) are rare and there are few reports about their treatment. We herein present a rare case of MSAAs treated with splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization.Methods: A 51-year-old female patient was incidentally diagnosed with MSAAs. Splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization was the chosen treatment.Outcomes: The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged from the hospital 5 days after splenectomy. The patient has been doing well during the 27-months of follow-up.Conclusion: Combined with the experience of the previous literature, we think splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization is a safe, reliable and minimally invasive treatment for some selected multiple SAAs, depending on several patient parameters, such as the age, sex, aneurysm dimension, aneurysm location, complications, and severity of the clinical findings.
