<p>Las hernias intercostales son muy poco frecuentes y las que han sido reportadas en la literatura muestran un origen traumático.  Por ello, presentamos un caso insólito al ocurrir en un paciente sin antecedente traumático conocido además de otros datos peculiares como la presencia de  hernia intercostal con preservación diafragmática, asociación muy poco frecuente. El diagnóstico radiológico es fundamental y permite orientar la estrategia terapeútica adecuada. En la mayoría de los casos el tratamiento quirúrgico se basa en la reparación herniaria asociada a la utilización de material protésico que , como en el caso presentado, permiten una buena evolución clínica de los pacientes.</p><p> </p><p>ABSTRACT</p><p>Intercostal hernias are very rare and those reported in the literature show a traumatic origin.  Therefore, we present an unusual case when occurring in a patient without a traumatic history known in addition to other peculiar data such as the presence of intercostal hernia with diaphragmatic preservation, very rare association. Radiological diagnosis is essential and allows to guide the appropriate therapeutic strategy. In most cases surgical treatment is based on herniary repair associated with the use of prosthetic material which, as in the case presented, allow a good clinical evolution of patients.</p>

Abstract 16p12.2 microdeletion has been associated with congenital heart defects and developmental delay.

A 70-year-old asthmatic man presented with a history of chronic intermittent left-sided chest pains and a bulge-like deformity of his chest which became more prominent with expiration. He sustained a traumatic fall 2 years prior whereby he fractured his right humerus at the surgical neck, requiring total arthroplasty. Examination and CT imaging of the thorax revealed a left costal arch fracture with hemidiaphragm rupture and associated transperitoneal fat herniation. He underwent left thoracolaparotomy with costal arch and diaphragmatic hernia repair. He was discharged 48 hours postoperatively and is satisfied with good outcomes under initial follow-up. This case report highlights the surgical management of a condition that usually presents late after significant trauma and may progress to visceral strangulation if untreated.

AbstractThe main aim of this case report is to thoroughly describe the steps of diagnosis and treatment in the rare incidence of patellar tendon gouty tophus. The case of a 53-year-old man manual worker who was treated with open excision of the lesion, following failure of extended medical treatment with rheumatological input, is presented. Surgical treatment led to full restoration of the patient's knee function. Open or arthroscopic surgery is a viable option for the unusual case of intratendinous patellar gouty deposition if the patient fails medical management. Medical treatment should still be the mainstay.

We describe a case of a lingual thyroglossal duct cyst diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound at 26 weeks of gestation. The follow-up ultrasound scans revealed no changes in the cyst measurement. Surgical treatment was performed without any complication 72 hours after delivery with good results.
