Background: Colosalpingeal fistula is a rare complication secondary to diverticular disease. The pathogenesis is still not clearly understood. We present the case of a colosalpingeal fistula and a review of the management of this pathology. Case report: A 69-year-old patient with uncomplicated diverticular disease was referred to our department for recurrent vaginal discharge. The clinical examination was unremarkable, hysteroscopy revealed the presence of air in the uterine cavity in the absence of a uterine fistula. A preliminary diagnosis of colosalpingeal fistula was made and was confirmed by computed tomography (CT) scan and hysterosalpingography. A one-stage surgery via laparotomy was successfully performed with remission of the symptoms. Conclusion: Colotubal fistula is a rare complication resulting from intestinal diverticular disease. The purpose of this paper was to emphasize the presence of a rare, but serious complication occurring in diverticular disease with atypical symptoms and one-stage surgery treatment.

Bonebridge (BB) is the first active implantation system for bone conduction that is placed fully under the skin. Experience suggests that BB is characterized by low incidence of postoperative complications. This case report presents a rare case of a 16-year-old girl with incidence of emphysema occurring over the implant 1 year after operation. We performed a computed tomography scan that showed pockets of gas above the floating mass transducer so we provided the revision surgery and sealed the artificial opening with fat from the earlobe and fibrin glue. Since that time, no air has collected in the retroauricular area and the implant has been fully functional.

Bilateral Tessier no. 7 clefts are rarely reported in the literature. Here, we describe the presence of accessory maxilla with supernumerary teeth in a patient who exhibited bilateral Tessier no. 7 clefts; the diagnosis was established based on the patient’s history, clinical presentation, and computed tomography images. A review of the available literature revealed 24 patients with Tessier no. 7 clefts from 2000 to 2020, including our patient. The most common clinical manifestation in patients with Tessier no. 7 clefts comprises bilateral facial clefts. Additionally, Tessier no. 7 clefts are more frequently found in boys or men, rather than in girls or women. The presence of an accessory maxilla with supernumerary teeth in a patient with bilateral Tessier no. 7 clefts is extremely rare. Early detection of craniofacial abnormalities is important, because it may influence patient prognosis and management.

Pancreatic Head Tumor

There have been no reports of ruptured solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) into adjacent organs. A 22-year-old female was referred to our hospital for treatment of a pancreatic head tumor. Computed tomography (CT) examination at our hospital showed a 5-cm tumor containing air, although CT at a previous hospital revealed an 8-cm tumor without air. Thus, a spontaneous rupture of the tumor into the duodenum was suspected. Subtotal stomach preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with combined resection of the portal vein was performed. Contrast radiography of resected specimen showed the medium injected into the tumor leaking out from the 2nd portion of the duodenum. Histologically, the patient was diagnosed as SPN. Microscopic invasion to the portal vein and duodenum were also confirmed. She did not experience any postoperative complications and has remained well without any signs of recurrence during 2 years of follow-up. Although there have been 14 studies reporting ruptured SPN, this is the first report of SPN that spontaneously ruptured into the duodenum. An extremely rare case of SPN of the pancreatic head that spontaneously ruptured into the duodenum was reported.

Multislice Computed Tomography Imaging of Diverticultis Complication: Colovenous FistulaAcute colon pathology as diverticulitis is a frequent and important gastrointestinal disease, but the clinical diagnosis is often difficult to state. Several radiological studies have been used to assist in the diagnosis of acute diverticulitis (e.g. barium enema, ultrasound, and computed tomography (CT). Colovenous fistula is a rare complication of diverticulitis. We have analyzed MSCT imaging role in evaluation of such complicated form of diverticular disease.

AbstractObjectives:To discuss the pathophysiology of atlanto-axial subluxation as a rare complication of tonsillectomy, and to discuss the important radiological findings for diagnosis and treatment planning.Case report:We report a case of post-tonsillectomy atlanto-axial subluxation, also known as Grisel's syndrome, in a child. On the third day after surgery, the boy presented with torticollis with no neurological deficit. Rotatory atlanto-axial subluxation was clearly shown in computed tomography scans of the neck. Cervical traction for one week successfully reduced the subluxation, with no long-term sequelae.Conclusion:Pre-existing cervical ligamentous laxity and post-operative infection are believed to be the main causes of Grisel's syndrome. Although it is rare, patients are advised to seek treatment early if any neck pain or fever persists. Early diagnosis is important for better treatment outcome. Initial conservative measures are advised before more invasive cervical traction is adopted.

Round Ligament Varicosity

Round ligament varicosities occur almost exclusively in pregnant and postpartum women and present similarly to inguinal hernias clinically, thus posing diagnostic challenges to clinicians. The distinction of the two conditions is important as round ligament varicosities do not require surgery while inguinal hernias do. Rarely, round ligament varicosites may be complicated by thrombosis or hemorrhage. In this case report, we present a rare case of round ligament varicosity (RLV) which has been complicated by thrombosis. The radiological features on ultrasound and contrast computed tomography of a thrombosed RLV are presented.
