Introduction: We aim to report an uncommon case of post ERCP perforation that effectively managed conservatively in non-hepatobiliary surgery centre. Case report: A 46-year-old man diagnosed to have obstructive jaundice secondary to distal common bile duct (CBD) stone. He underwent ERCP at a private centre, sphincterotomy was performed, but, the operator had failed to insert the stent and complicated with post ERCP perforation evidenced by contrast extravasation beyond 1/3rd of the CBD and referred to our centre. Patient was subjected for re ERCP. There were difficulties in cannulating the CBD and stent was inserted. Cholangiogram revealed contrast leak around the pancreatic duct and bifurcation of hepatic duct. There was no evidence of CBD stone. Computed Tomography (CT) of the abdomen revealed extensive subcutaneous emphysema on the right side of the abdomen to right inguinal region, extensive retroperitoneal free air and pneumoperitoneum, but there were no free fluid or contrast extravasation. The patient subjected for non-operative management (NOM) for the complication and kept fasting with total parenteral nutrition and intravenous antibiotic. He recovered well with the opted management. Patient was programmed with Gastrograffin study after 10 days that showed no evidence of contrast leak to suggest free bowel injury. He was allowed orally after that and was discharged well after 15 days with stent in situ. During follow up, he was well, and the stent removed after 3 months. Patient planned for laparoscopic cholecystectomy and on table cholangiogram. Conclusion:  Post ERCP perforation is uncommon but lethal. Early recognition of the complication is crucial hence appropriate management can be arranged to avoid death. To date, surgery is not the only choice available to manage this complication.

Contrast Extravasation

A central venous catheter can occasionally be used for contrast injection during a CT scan, with mediastinal contrast extravasation as a possible rare complication in this setting. According to the published cases, interventional venography has never been performed to assess the venous system directly. We present a case of mediastinal contrast extravasation with follow-up venography, which clearly depicted a subintimal leak and no evidence of sustained extravasation. The contrast was reabsorbed shortly after the extravasation with no adverse effects for the patient. The presented case illustrates the importance of recognition of proper positioning of central venous catheters before performing angiographies with relatively high flow velocity, such as CT angiography, as well as the importance of performing staff being familiar with different aspects of working with central venous catheters.

Coronary artery perforation is a rare but serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. This case report describes a patient with Grade III perforation of the left anterior descending coronary artery who underwent placement of a peripheral arterial stent graft due to persistent contrast extravasation refractory to conventional coronary stent graft placement and balloon tamponade.

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.

This case report describes the positive outcome of a therapeutic intervention that integrated an intensive, residential component with follow-up telepractice for a 21 year old male who stutters. This therapy utilized an eclectic approach to intensive therapy in conjunction with a 12-month follow-up via video telepractice. The results indicated that the client benefited from the program as demonstrated by a reduction in percent stuttered syllables, a reduction in stuttering severity, and a change in attitudes and feelings related to stuttering and speaking.

Extract Information

Real-time amplitude contour and spectral displays were used in teaching speech production skills to a profoundly deaf, nonspeaking boy. This child had a visual attention problem, a behavior problem, and a poor academic record. In individual instruction, he was first taught to produce features of speech, for example, friction, nasal, and stop, which are present in vocalizations of 6- to 9-month-old infants, and then to combine these features in syllables and words. He made progress in speech, although sign language and finger spelling were taught at the same time. Speech production skills were retained after instruction was terminated. The results suggest that deaf children are able to extract information about the features of speech from visual displays, and that a developmental sequence should be followed as far as possible in teaching speech production skills to them.

On page 112 of the report by Wilson, Oldring, and Mueller ("Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Dissection: A Case Report Involving Return of Spastic Dysphonia after Initial Surgery," pp. 112-118), the paraphrase from Cooper (1971), "if the patients are carefully selected and are willing to remain in therapy for a long period of time," was inadvertantly put in quotation marks.
