Patent Vitello-Intestinal Duct (VID) results as of failed obliteration of the fetal omphalocele coelom (herniated loops of intestine in the umbilical cord) during the development of the midgut. Herein, we report a case of a male child who presented at 5 year of age with history of persistent fecal discharge from umbilicus since birth.The VID stula was conrmed with a ultrasound and a wedge resection with primary anastomosis was done for it. The child was discharged 5 days postop without any complications. This case report highlight a rare cause of umbilical discharge for which surgical intervention was required.

Interhemispheric Cyst

Asymmetric ventriculomegaly, interhemispheric cyst and dysgenesis of the corpus callosum (AVID) constitutes a rare imaging triad. Additional findings include subcortical and subependymal heterotopia, polymicrogyria, fused thalami, deficient falx, and hydrocephalus. The knowledge of this triad helps us to diagnose prenatally by sonography and fetal MRI. In this case report authors present MRI Imaging findings in a case of AVID syndrome in a 6year old male child presenting with history of seizures and delayed milestones.

Aneurysms of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are exceedingly rare; less than 50 cases have been reported in the world literature. Owing to the paucity of data regarding the natural history of IVC aneurysms, there is no consensus on their treatment. This case report describes the evaluation of an IVC aneurysm in a 56-year-old male, briefly discusses the embryologic development of the IVC, and revisits the question of whether surgical intervention is indicated in these patients.

Nuchal cord is the umbilical cord accident least associated with stillbirths. It is a common occurrence; however, the expertise to diagnose multiple and tight loops on ultrasound is minimal, especially in limited-resource settings. We report a 30 year-old gravida 1, who presented at a gestation of 39/40+6/7 with a 2 day history of inability to appreciate foetal movements. An urgent obstetric ultrasound revealed absent foetal cardiac activity, reduced amniotic fluid and normal placenta but the report had no comments on the umbilical cord. She delivered a macerated male infant with a tight cord around the neck thrice. This case report highlights the importance of third trimester sonography screening of umbilical cord abnormalities and the mechanism of intrauterine foetal death associated with umbilical cord accidents.

Introduction: An aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is an abnormal connection between the aorta and the gastrointestinal tract that develops due to a pathologic cause. It is a rare, but life-threatening, cause of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. Although no single imaging modality exists that definitively diagnoses AEF, computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the abdomen and pelvis is the preferred initial test due to widespread availability and efficiency. Case Report: Many deaths occur before the diagnosis is made or prior to surgical intervention. We describe a case of a patient with a history of aortic graft repair who presented with active GI bleeding. Conclusion: Although CTA can make the diagnosis of AEF, it cannot adequately rule it out. In patients with significant GI bleeding and prior history of aortic surgery, vascular surgery should be consulted early on, even if CTA is equivocal.

Abstract Background Hepatocellular carcinoma is a primary liver malignancy often caused by viral hepatitis infection due to chronic inflammation and persistent cytokine release. Although rare, patients may present with large, pedunculated hepatocellular neoplasms that extend into the intra-abdominal space. Here, we present a case report on a 66-year-old male who was found to have such a mass that required careful pre-operative planning to complete a challenging, yet worthwhile, surgical intervention with R0 resection. Case Presentation A 66-year-old Caucasian male with a history of Hepatitis C presented with 4-5 months of abdominal pain, distention and weight loss. Imaging revealed a large heterogenous mass attached to the left lobe of the liver, with compression of the stomach, transverse colon and abdominal wall. Biopsy revealed hepatocellular carcinoma with extensive necrosis and ultimately the patient required surgical intervention, which required resection of omentum, partial gastrectomy, hepatectomy and extensive dissection of the mass to separate the tumor from the remaining intra-abdominal structures and the retroperitoneum. Conclusion Peduncular hepatocellular carcinomas vary in presentation and difficulty of resection. The prognosis and probability of successful surgical intervention depends on the level of differentiation, early staging, size of the neoplasm and invasion into surrounding structures. In this case, R0 resection was successfully performed.

Tumefactive Fibroinflammatory Lesion

AbstractObjective:A 65-year-old man presented with a nine-month history of swelling in the midline of the forehead. After surgical intervention, this lesion was found to be a tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion of the frontal sinus. This case report and review aims to report this new location for tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesion, and to discuss whether, in retrospect, there would have been alternative options to surgery.Methods:Case report and literature review.Results:Tumefactive fibroinflammatory lesions are rare. Although cases in the sinonasal tract have been described, none involving the frontal sinus have previously been reported. A review of the literature suggests that these lesions have an association with other fibroinflammatory lesions, and may be amenable to systemic steroid therapy.Conclusion:Each case should be managed on its merits, and a biopsy taken followed by subsequent screening for associated fibroinflammatory lesions. In the case of an isolated lesion, a surgical approach is probably favoured in a patient suitable for general anaesthesia.

ABSTRACT To report a case of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) with huge ulcer and to review our experience with these aggressive tumors in our hospital. We retrospectively reviewed the presentation, treatment and survival of all the patients who were diagnosed with ATC at Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II (HRPZ II), Kota Bharu, Malaysia from 2004 to 2010. A 63-year-old woman presented to outpatient clinic with history of anterior neck swelling for more than 10 years. She complained of rapid increase in size with huge ulcer and associated with hoarseness of voice and shortness of breath over 1 month period. She was investigated and the diagnosis of ATC was established. However, she refused for any surgical intervention and eventually succumbed during the palliative treatment 5 months later. ATC is a very rare thyroid cancer and usually presents at a very late stage with significant morbidity and mortality. Early detection, new therapeutic strategies and more studies especially based on molecular approaches may probably more helpful for better survival results in the future.

Peutz Jeghers Syndrome

The Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is a hereditary disease that requires frequent endoscopic and surgical intervention, leading to secondary complications such as short bowel syndrome. CASE REPORT: This paper reports on a 15-year-old male patient with a family history of the disease, who underwent surgery for treatment of an intestinal occlusion due to a small intestine intussusception. DISCUSSION: An intra-operative fiberscopic procedure was included for the detection and treatment of numerous polyps distributed along the small intestine. Enterotomy was performed to treat only the larger polyps, therefore limiting the intestinal resection to smaller segments. The postoperative follow-up was uneventful. CONCLUSION: We point out the importance of conservative treatment for patients with this syndrome, especially those who will undergo repeated surgical interventions because of clinical manifestation while they are still young.

Calcific myonecrosis is characterized by central liquefaction and peripheral calcification involving the entire muscle mass and is considered to be a late sequel of compartment syndrome. Being a rare presentation, considering differential diagnosis is important. Diagnosis is based on history of trauma and typical radiological features. Symptomatic patients require complete excision of the mass while asymptomatic patients can be treated nonoperatively.
