Fibrotic Lesion

Solitary intestinal myofibromatosis (SIF) is a very rare condition affecting the pediatric population and carries good prognosis following adequate management based on segmental resection. We describe a rare case who presented with features of neonatal intestinal obstruction due to a solitary stenosing fibrotic lesion originating from the ileum and compatible with SIF.

Delays In Diagnosis

Congenital mesocolic hernia is an extremely rare, but serious cause of intestinal obstruction in children. Given the rarity of this condition, delays in diagnosis and management can have catastrophic consequences. Congenital mesocolic hernias are usually caused by an abnormal rotation of primitive mid-gut and are divided into left and right congenital mesocolic hernias. We report and discuss the clinical and radiological features and management of a neonate with an extremely rare variant, congenital middle mesocolic hernia along with a literature review of this rare condition.

ABSTRACT Secondary abdominal pregnancy is a very rare condition. Outcome of secondary abdominal pregnancy with pregnancy continuing up to term and delivering a live baby by laparotomy is more rare. Management of secondary abdominal pregnancy depends on the gestational age of the fetus when diagnosed. If not diagnosed at the correct time patient may have life-threatening complications, for example, massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage, peritonitis, intestinal obstruction, intestinal perforation, fecal fistula formation, and lithopedion formation.

Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum

Idiopathic pneumomediastinum is a form of spontaneous pneumomediastinum without predisposing factors and precipitating factors. The purpose of this publication is to present a rare case of this pathological condition. Case presentation: A 21year-old female with spontaneous pneumomediastinum was revealed. Medical history, physical examination, imaging and interventional diagnosis couldn’t determine any predisposing and precipitating factors for pneumomediatinum: case of idiopathic pneumomediastinum with unusual widespread subcutaneous emphysema. Conclusion In conclusion, this publication refers to one relatively rare condition in the thoracic pathology – idiopathic pneumomediastinum. Being a case of idiopathic pneumomediastinum, there was an unusual clinical presentation of widespread subcutaneous emphysema. Despite widespread subcutaneous emphysema, the presenting case confirms the good prognosis of idiopathic pneumomediastinum.

Neonatal Intestinal Obstruction

Abstract Background Intestinal obstruction caused by a tumor is very rare in newborns, and the preoperative diagnosis is difficult. We herein report a rare case of neonatal colonic obstruction due to solitary intestinal myofibroma with characteristic findings on gastrografin enema and the surgical strategy. Case presentation A 4-day-old female infant presented to our neonatal intensive-care unit with abdominal distention and bilious vomiting after feeding. A gastrografin enema showed that the transverse colon near the hepatic flexure was not delineated at the oral side. When pressure was applied, a small amount of contrast material moved into the mouth in the form of threads. Microcolon was not observed, and stenosis of the transverse colon was found 9 cm from the Bauhin valve. Partial resection and end-to-end anastomosis were performed. A pathological examination of the resected specimen suggested gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). After obtaining a second opinion, the histology and immunohistological markers were deemed characteristic of infantile myofibroma. Conclusion If string sign and a napkin ring appearance are found in a case of neonatal intestinal obstruction, surgery should be performed with a tumor in mind. In cases of neonatal intestinal obstruction caused by a tumor, the lesion should be resected with a sufficient surgical margin before the pathological examination.

AbstractAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in the pediatric population is an extremely rare condition. We present an acute intracerebral hemorrhage in an 8-year-old boy, secondary to a ruptured middle cerebral artery cortical branch (M4 segment) aneurysm. There have been very few cases of cortical aneurysm reported in adults and we did not identify any pediatric cases in the literature to date.

Introduction: Intraorbital abscess is a rare complication of rhinosinusitis that affects most commonly the pediatric population. It is thought to be caused by direct extension or venous spread of infections from contiguous sites and can lead to life-threatening complications, like permanent visual loss and cerebral abscesses. Objectives: Intraorbital abscess is a rare condition that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment to avoid serious complications. Our objectives are to provide an overview of this rare disease process and its management including our successful treatment experience. Case Description: We present a 2 case report of a 13-year-old pediatric male and a 66-year-old male with history of chronic sinusitis who presented with a right intraorbital abscess successfully treated with external drainage with decompression of the orbit. Conclusion: When intraorbital abscess is encountered, a high index of suspicion is needed to allow prompt and accurate diagnosis for this infrequent condition. Timely surgical drainage of the abscess is needed to prevent the development of fatal complications.
