Prompt Diagnosis

Neonatal scrotal haematoma is a rare entity which requires prompt diagnosis and management. Mostly the diagnosis is confirmed at exploration. A male baby was delivered by Caesarean section with antenatally identified scrotal mass. Examination and work-up pointed to idiopathic scrotal haematoma which was drained surgically. No cause of scrotal haematoma could be identified. The baby is doing fine postoperatively.

Advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma presenting with endobronchial metastases is an extremely rare phenomenon, with only a few cases reported to date. Despite endobronchial metastases being a rare occurrence, the clinically significant sequelae require prompt diagnosis and management. Therapeutic bronchoscopy represents an effective palliative treatment for malignant airway obstruction. This case report describes a 62-year-old man who presented with bilateral endobronchial metastases from advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma, requiring symptom palliation with laser bronchoscopy.

Prompt Diagnosis

Neonatal atrial flutter is a rare entity seen in the newborn period. With prompt treatment, they mostly revert to normal rhythm, with good long-term prognosis. But prolonged untreated atrial flutter can result in heart failure. This necessitates prompt diagnosis and treatment of the condition. However, all available treatment modalities are not effective in all patients. Here, we report 2 newborns with atrial flutter who did not respond initially to medical management, but eventually responded to cardioversion, with good outcome.

Hospital Acquired

A 36-year-old woman presented to the maternity unit two days post caesarean section (CS) with abdominal distension, pain and constipation. She was found to be septic on admission. Imaging demonstrated dilated bowel loops without an identifiable site of obstruction highlightingOgilvie’s syndrome (OS) as the cause of her symptoms. Hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) was identified as thesource of infection with accompanying right sided lower lobe collapse. She was reviewed by multiple specialties to aid management and was subsequently managedconservatively for pseudo-obstruction. She made a good recovery and was able to return home after 10 days in hospital

Causative Factors

Pneumoparotid is considered to be a rare entity, but the diagnosis might not be as uncommon as reported. We report a case in which computed tomography incidentally revealed air in the parotid ducts bilaterally. Treatment is aimed at the elimination of predisposing and causative factors, but because our patient denied any symptoms or precipitating factors and had a benign presentation, no immediate intervention was initiated.

Work Up

Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare entity and usually diagnosed at later stages which poses a treatment dilemma and usually results in a bad prognosis. It is the second most aggressive endocrine malignancy after anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. Here we report a case in a young male diagnosed incidentally on an ultrasound scan done for abdominal pain. On examination his abdomen was soft with no obvious mass palpable. We are reporting a brief summary of the diagnosis, work up and management of this rare entity in the hope that it may shed some more light on the appropriate management of this elusive condition.

Abstract Traumatic subdural hematomas of the posterior fossa are rare but dangerous neurosurgical emergencies that require prompt diagnosis and management to avoid the uniformly poor outcome. We present a case of a teenager with severe TBI and acute subdural hematoma of the posterior fossa that deteriorated rapidly before surgery but eventually made a good recovery. We also the review the literature concerning traumatic posterior fossa subdural hematomas [PFSDH].

Prompt Diagnosis

Microcolon is a radiographic feature of a low intestinal obstruction that result from intrauterine underutilization or what is term unused colon. The finding of microcolon on contrast enema study in newborn with distended abdomen usually suggests jejunoileal obstruction, jejunoileal atresia, meconium ileus, or occasionally totals colonic agangliosis. We are therefore presenting this case to highlight the wonders that imaging will perform in prompt diagnosis and management of this condition.
