Foreign body ingestion is a regular medical referral. Patients present with different objects such as chicken bones, nails, coins, and fishbones. It is usually managed in causality and passes without any intervention. However, occasionally, we come across fishbone complications requiring intervention. We discuss the course and management of two case reports of fishbone injuries in different abdominal regions.

Congenital clubfoot deformity takes the 2 nd place among the malformations of the muskuloskeletal system and is observed in 4-5 ‰ of newborn. More often the deformity is bilateral, in 20 % of cases it is associated with other developmental disorders and is frequently seen in different syndromes. Clubfoot classifications are variable and are constantly improved according to the practical needs. It is generally assumed that clubfoot is a polyetiological disease. The main theories of its development are congenital (genetic), mechanical and neuromuscular. The majority of specialists consider that clubfoot formation is due to dysplastic process with the predominant foot and shin lesion. Bone, neuromuscular or vascular system hypoplasia predominate depending on the severity of the deformity. Evolution of the clubfoot treatment methods occurs in a spiral-form fashion from the conservative management to total releases and bone reconstructions, from low-invasive to excessively radical surgery. At present the spiral turn has stopped at the consisting of many stages low-invasive method of clubfoot correction developed by I. Ponseti which is considered now to be the golden standard of treatment.

Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a rare, necrotising infection of the renal parenchyma, predominantly associated with Escherichia coli infection and unless promptly recognised and dealt with, it carries a poor prognosis. The current treatment is one of antimicrobial therapies together with nephrectomy in a majority of patients. We report an elderly man with multiple comorbidities with a diagnosis of EPN whose condition improved with antimicrobial and supportive therapy, and no surgical intervention was required.
