Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare disease in which venous malformations (VMs) involve any body organ, most commonly the skin and the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Treatment of BRBNS aims at preserving the GI tract as much as possible. Although there are several dozen case reports about BRBNS that describe short-term clinical courses, a few provide an account of long-term clinical course. Here, we report a case of BRBNS in a girl that required multiple abdominal surgeries due to the GI VMs and a recurrence at an interval of 14 years. The preferred approach for gastrointestinal VMs involves the complete resection of all lesions without residual VMs. It is important to bear in mind the possibility of delayed recurrence of GI VMs after surgical or endoscopic treatment.

Oesophageal liposarcomas are particularly rare, accounting for 1.2–1.5% of all gastrointestinal liposarcomas. Surgical resection is the usual treatment. Endoscopic resection is minimally invasive but still controversial. This current case report describes a rare case of a large oesophageal liposarcoma in a 52-year-old male that presented with 10-year history of dysphagia for dry and solid food that was exacerbated by a recent common cold. Thoracoscopic and laparoscopic oesophagectomy was performed. He did not have any dysphagia or dyspnoea 1 week postoperatively. The excised specimen consisted of a polypoid mass measuring 21.0 cm × 5.1 cm. Histological examination confirmed that it was an oesophageal liposarcoma. At 1-year postoperatively, there was no sign of recurrence. Thoracoscopy and laparoscopy can be used to treat large oesophageal masses. Long-term follow-up is required as oesophageal liposarcomas tend to recur.

AbstractWe present a case of chronic wrist pain in a 14-year-old child with mild radial longitudinal deficiency and radiographic carpal collapse due to the absence of the scaphoid. Wrist arthroscopy demonstrated synovitis and a tear to the TFCC, which would be called “degenerative,” according to the Palmer classification. This was debrided, and the patient is still asymptomatic at long-term follow-up. Review of the literature found one paper with a similar observation in a 17-year-old adolescent. We propose that paediatric “degenerative” tears ought to be called “congenitally adapted” tears.

Lateral palatal synechiae are rare congenital adhesions running from the free borders of the cleft palate to the lateral parts of the tongue or the oral cavity floor, typically found in cleft palate lateral synechiae syndrome. We present a case of congenital lateral palatal synechia associated with a cleft palate that we treated and followed up for 10 years. We present the long-term prognosis. We also discuss variations in intraoral synechiae associated with cleft palate and the etiology of lateral palatal synechiae through a literature review.
