Sister Mary Joseph’S Nodule

Umbilical metastases, also termed Sister Mary Joseph's nodule, are reported rarely in medical literature and they are associated with advanced metastatic intra-abdominal and pelvic cancers. The purpose of this publication is to report a rare case of umbilical metastasis misdiagnosed as acomplicated umbilical hernia. Case presentation. A 74-years-old woman with nausea and painful umbilical swelling was misdiagnosed as incarcerated umbilical hernia оn the initial examination. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a huge pelvic cystic-solid mass, probably originates from right ovary. Conclusion. In conclusion, the presented case demonstrated that due to the lack of understanding Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule could be easily mistaken for incarcerated umbilical hernia.

Standard Guideline

Introduction: Flood syndrome is a rare and potentially fatal complication of liver cirrhosis with gross ascites. Case presentation: We present a case of Flood syndrome in a gentleman with alcoholic cirrhosis and ascites who had sudden spontaneous rupture of umbilical hernia, resulting in sudden gush of ascitic fluid from the hernia. The wound was cleaned and covered in sterile dressing and was admitted for further management. His umbilical hernia wound was closed at bedside by General Surgery team and he underwent ultrasound-guided ascitic drain insertion by Interventional Radiology. His stay was complicated by bacterial peritonitis which was treated with intravenous antibiotic. Patient eventually recovered and was discharged well. Discussion: Flood syndrome has high complication and mortality rate. Recent reported cases were reviewed, focusing on the causes of cirrhosis, complications of Flood syndrome, treatments provided and the outcomes. Conclusion: There is currently no standard guideline for the management of Flood syndrome which falls in the grey area between medical and surgical management. Proper medical management with early surgical consultation is important to reduce the morbidity and mortality for these patients.

Bowel Strangulation

An umbilical hernia, although considered a benign condition of childhood, may rarely manifest with serious complications such as incarceration and viscous organ strangulation. One such case is presented in this report in an attempt to enrich the current literature, due to the relative lack of data in regard to complicated umbilical hernias in children and definite guidelines regarding the monitoring and management of uncomplicated cases. In addition, we discuss some of the latest advancements concerning the matter at issue.

Pulmonary Changes

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
