Introduction Gynaecological structures such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, ligaments and uterus are rarely encountered inside a hernial sac. The prevalence of groin hernias containing parts of female genitalia remains unknown. The aim of this review was to summarise the existing evidence on inguinal hernias containing ovaries with or without the other female adnexa. Methods A systematic search was conducted for literature published up to February 2018 using the MEDLINE®, Scopus® and Google Scholar™ databases along with the references of the full-text articles retrieved. Papers on observational studies and case reports concerning women who were diagnosed with an ovarian inguinal hernia (pre or intraoperatively) were considered eligible for inclusion in the review. Results Fifteen papers (13 case reports, 2 case series) comprising seventeen patients (mean age 47.9 years) were evaluated. A left-sided hernia was noted in 13 cases (77%) whereas 4 patients had a right-sided hernia. Eight patients underwent preoperative imaging with computed tomography, ultrasonography or both. This was diagnostic in five cases. In 11 patients, hernia contents were repositioned, 2 had a salpingo-oophorectomy and 2 an oophorectomy. Eight patients underwent hernia repair with mesh placement while three had a herniorrhaphy. Conclusions Ovarian inguinal hernias should be considered among the differential diagnoses of a groin mass or swelling. In women of reproductive age, repair of the hernia with the intent to preserve fertility is of critical importance.

Cisternal Drainage

Background: Some complications associated with cisternal drainage have been reported; however, there are few reports on direct vascular injury caused by cisternal drain. We experienced two rare cases of thalamic infarction caused by cisternal drain placement during open clipping for a ruptured anterior communicating artery (AcomA) aneurysm through an anterior interhemispheric approach. Case Description: Two cases of ruptured AcomA aneurysm were treated by surgical clipping through an anterior interhemispheric approach, and then a cisternal drain was inserted from opticocarotid space toward prepontine cistern. Postoperatively, the magnetic resonance imaging showed unilateral anterior-medial thalamic infarction in both two cases. By reviewing the postoperative computed tomography and digital subtraction angiography, it was suspected that the cisternal drain, which was inserted slightly deep, obstructed the P1 perforator because of an anatomical variation involving a lowered basilar bifurcation and caused postoperative unilateral paramedian thalamic infarction. Conclusion: To avoid these complications, neurosurgeons should consider the potential for P1 perforator injury related to cisternal drain placement.

Abstract Background: Surgical ciliated cysts (SCC) of the maxilla appear as a delayed complication after surgery in the maxillary sinus, midface osteotomies, traumatic tooth extraction, and maxillary fractures. They are defined as a lytic lesion with entrapment of the pseudostratified columnar epithelium.Report of three cases: We present three patients in which after orthognathic surgery a slowly enlarging asymptomatic swelling mass was developed. On CT, all the cases presented lytic expansive lesions in the alveolar ridge. In the three cases, lesions were completely excised, and upon histological examination, ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium with goblet cells was found so they were diagnosed as SCC. An exhaustive review of the medical literature was conducted. The PubMed database was searched for PubMed Central (PMC). 44 references were found, reporting 1555 cases: 11 series and 33 case reports, being the largest series from the Asian countries. The mean age was 46.5 years, and more frequently described in male patients. The most frequent form of presentation was as unilateral unilocular cysts in the posterior maxilla. They were described most frequently after a Caldwell-Luc approach. The average latency time was of 19.9 years.Conclusion: SCC is a rare complication after orthognathic surgery, but large series have been published, so maybe it could be interesting to include these cysts in the next Edition of the World Health Organization Classification of the Head and Neck Tumors: Odontogenic and Maxillofacial Bone Tumors, making clear the difference between SCC and mucoceles to avoid future confusions.
