An unusual cause of duodenal obstruction in the newborn infant has been presented. Two cases have been cited from the literature. Diagnoses must be based on symptoms of vomiting with a failure to gain weight, supported by x-ray findings of a dilated duodenum. Lymphadenopathy in the small bowel mesentery, following diarrhea, may have been the inciting cause. Treatment consists of a side-to-side duodenojejunostomy.

BACKGROUND: A lipoma of the small bowel mesentery is a rare clinical entity. It rarely causes intestinal obstruction mainly due to volvulus.CASE: We report a case of a 25 years old male who presented with acute exacerbation of abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. Plain abdominal x-ray showed complete small bowel obstruction. At laparotomy, there was small bowel volvulus with a big yellow mass as an axis. Enbloc resection and end-to-end ileal anastomosis was done.CONCLUSION; Mesenteric lipoma are rare. They should be considered in cases of long standing abdominal pain.

A woman presented to our hospital with acute abdominal pain 7 months following an oesophagectomy. A chest X-ray revealed a new elevation of the left diaphragm. CT demonstrated a large left diaphragmatic hernia incarcerated with non-enhancing transverse colon and loops of small bowel. She deteriorated rapidly into obstructive shock and was urgently brought to the operating room for a laparotomy. The diaphragmatic orifice was identified in a left parahiatal position, consistent with a parahiatal hernia. Incarcerated necrotic transverse colon and ischaemic loops of small bowel were resected, and the diaphragmatic defect was closed primarily. Because of haemodynamic instability, the abdomen was temporarily closed, and a second look was performed 24 hours later, allowing anastomosis and definitive closure. Parahiatal hernias are rare complications following surgical procedures and can lead to devastating life-threatening complications, such as an obstructive shock. Expeditious diagnosis and management are required in the acute setting.

Background: Intramural hematoma of the duodenum is a rare cause of acquired duodenal obstruction. It is often a diagnostic dilemma and a high degree of suspicion is required to make an early and accurate diagnosis in children. Case Report: A 2-year-old child presented with bilious vomiting and abdominal distension. X-ray abdomen showed high intestinal obstruction. Ultrasound and CT scan abdomen gave suspicion of pancreatic pseudo-cyst near head of pancreas. At surgery, an intramural hematoma of the duodenum was found and drained. Conclusion: Intramural duodenal hematoma is a rare entity especially in children and should be considered in differential diagnosis of acquired duodenal obstruction.

Abstract   Not applicable because it is a Video presentation. Methods Not applicable because it is a Video presentation. Results Not applicable because it is a Video presentation. Conclusion Not applicable because it is a Video presentation. Video Video shows visualisation of thoracic duct during esophagectomy by real-time fluorescent imaging. Intraoperative fluorescence lymphangiography was performed by injecting 2.5 mg of ICG into small bowel mesentery at Laparoscopy.At Thoracoscopy, Thoracic duct was visualised after 65 minutes. ICG fluorescence lymphangiography provides a feasible, reliable and real-time imaging of thoracic duct during esophagectomy, thereby potentially reducing thoracic duct injuries. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ROGQ1K-yWkO-B3oSk8dGbsRu4iCKGfJq.

Mesenteric cysts are rare and occur in patients of any age. They are asymptomatic and found incidentally or during the management of their complications. They commonly originate from the small bowel mesentery, although a proportion of them have been found to originate from the mesocolon (24%) and the retroperitoneum [1] [2,3,4,5] (14.5%). A mesenteric cyst originating in the sigmoid mesocolon is a very rare nding. They are a rare cause of abdominal pain and are discovered incidentally. If symptomatic, patients with these cysts present with abdominal pain, vomiting and low backache. Performing a thorough physical examination and conducting radiological investigations like ultrasonography (USG), computed tomography (CT) are keys in diagnosing the mesenteric cysts.
