Timely Treatment

Abdominal hydatidosis resulting in an internal hydatid bladder fistula postoperatively is quite rare and might have serious consequences without timely treatment. A 74-year-old Tibetan woman presented with abdominal distension and was diagnosed with hydatid disease. Cyst contents were removed, and the pericyst was partially resected without contraindication. Furthermore, no internal urinary fistula was found before or during the operation, and the presence of an internal fistula was indicated by methylene blue retrograde injection via urinary catheter after the operation. The use of postoperative methylene blue retrograde injection via urinary catheter is recommended to identify internal hydatid bladder fistula formation.

Introduction. Hydatid disease is caused by the tapewormEchinococcus granulosusand is still a matter of public health in many regions of the world, where it is an endemic parasitic disease. Although the liver is the most involved organ, hydatidosis can be found anywhere in the human body. Rare forms of location may lead to diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas.Case Report. Herein we report a rare case of acute abdominal pain and progressively increasing abdominal distension due to abdominal and multiple splenic echinococcosis in a 72-year-old Caucasian male. We also provide a brief review of the literature.Conclusion. Although hydatid disease is found most often in the liver and lungs, rarely any organ of the body can be involved by this zoonosis. Though rare, the possibility of unusual location of echinococcosis must always be considered by the operating surgeon, when dealing with diffuse abdominal pain in endemic areas, because any misinterpretation may result in unfavorable outcomes.

Abdominal Hydatidosis

Hydatid disease in human is common and liver is the most common site of involvement followed by lungs. Within the abdomen, hydatid disease can disseminate to involve spleen, pancreas, mesentery, kidney, ovary, gut, supra-renal glands etc. Such disseminations are usually secondary to rupture of a cyst: spontaneous, iatrogenic or traumatic. Without such a history, primary disseminated intra-abdominal hydatidosis is rare. Here we present such a case.Birdem Med J 2018; 8(1): 75-76

Background: Hemolymphangioma is a rare benign tumor. To the best of our knowledge, there were only 10 reports of this tumor of the pancreas until March 2018. Case Report: Here, we reported a large invasive hemolymphangioma of the pancreas in a young woman with a complaint of abdominal distension and an epigastric mass about 3 weeks. She was found to have a huge multilocular cystic tumor at the neck and body of pancreas on computed tomography. She was eventually diagnosed with hemolymphangioma of the pancreas after operation. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no signs of recurrence. Conclusion: From our case and literature, we can conclude that hemolymphangioma of the pancreas is uncommon benign tumor, and it is hard to make an accurate diagnosis preoperatively. Radical surgical resection should be performed whenever possible. The prognosis of this disease seems good.

Pathologic Findings

An infant, 5½ months of age, died after a brief acute illness characterized by irritability and somnolence leading terminally to coma, and by excessive sweating, abdominal distension, tachypnea and tachycardia. Acidosis and azotemia were marked. He was found at necropsy examination to have pathologic findings compatible with both beriberi and Wernicke's encephalopathy. Investigation of the dietary history and analysis of the formula fed the patient confirmed the suspicion of deficient intake of thiamine. This is the first case report in which the coexistence of these two pathologic conditions in a child proven to have had an inadequate diet, has been documented. It lends further support to the thesis that Wernicke's encephalopathy is caused by nutritional deficiency. The importance of vitamin supplementation of restricted diets used in the therapy of infantile eczema is emphasized.

Beta-hemolytic Streptococcus group G, a rare human pathogen, has long been implicated in human disease as causing pharyngitis, puerperal sepsis, empyema, and even septicemia. We are reporting a rare, life-threatening, acute illness, primary peritonitis, due to this organism, whose etiological source probably was a family dog. Case Report R.K., a 2-year-old girl, was admitted with the complaints of anorexia, vomiting of three days' duration, and severe abdominal distension of one day's duration. The symptoms started following a burn injury over the face and lips three days prior to admission. Past history was noncontributory. Physical examination revealed an ill child of average size, fully conscious.

Mucinous Neoplasms

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are benign cystic lesions of the pancreas with recognised premalignant potential. An occasional feature of IPMNs is fistula formation to surrounding organs. This report describes a case of a pancreaticogastric fistula from a main duct IPMN that produced the complete resolution of the patient’s symptoms.
