Surgical Condition

Foramen of Winslow hernias are a rare type of internal hernia that account for less than 1% of all cases of intestinal obstruction. It is extremely rare surgical condition with estimated mortality of about 50%. Timely diagnosis aided by computed tomography (CT scan) can facilitate proper planning and surgical treatment. Optimal treatment depends on patient’s condition, status of the incarcerated structure as well as surgeon’s comfort and preference.

AbstractA non-traumatic intra-cystic hemorrhage in an arachnoid cyst is a rare event, with few cases reported in the literature. We present a case of an eleven-year-old boy patient, which presented a spontaneous acute subdural hematoma and intra-cystic hemorrhage after a strong headache episode. The results were evidenced by a computed tomography (CT) scan and surgical findings. We perform a brief literature review on the arachnoid cyst and its suggested treatments. In our case, the patient underwent a surgical treatment with a complete resolution of the case.

Abstract Background Small intestine duplication cysts (SIDCs) are rare congenital anatomical abnormalities of the digestive tract and a rare cause of hematochezia. Case presentation We describe an adult female presented with recurrent hematochezia. The routine gastric endoscope and colonic endoscope showed no positive findings. Abdominal CT scan indicated intussusception due to the "doughnut" sign, but the patient had no typical symptoms. Two subsequent capsule endoscopes revealed a protruding lesion with bleeding in the distal ileum. Surgical resection was performed and revealed a case of SIDC measuring 6 * 2 cm located inside the ileum cavity. The patient remained symptom-free throughout a 7-year follow-up period. Conclusion SIDCs located inside the enteric cavity can easily be misdiagnosed as intussusception by routine radiologic examinations.

Epigastric Abdominal Pain

Abstract Herniation through the foramen of Winslow is rare, with a non-specific clinical presentation and his diagnosis may be difficult. A 44-year-old female was admitted with an acute epigastric abdominal pain. A computed tomography showed an internal hernia of the colon in the lesser sac. Laparoscopic reduction of the herniated contents and the fixation of the ascending colon with several non-absorbable sutures were performed. Twenty months after surgery, the patient has not experienced any recurrence. Computed tomography helps practitioners to the preoperative diagnosis of herniation through the foramen of Winslow, to the viability of the herniated contents and presence of occlusion. In case of herniation through the foramen of Winslow favored by a mobile ascending colon with a misapposition of the right Told fascia, the fixation of the colon with a non-absorbable suture was safe and may prevent the risk of recurrent internal hernia and colonic volvulus.

Abstract Background The common complications of radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy usually include wound infection, hemorrhage or hematomas, lymphocele, uretheral injury, ileus and incisional hernias. However, internal hernia secondary to the orifice associated with the uncovered vessels after pelvic lymphadenectomy is very rare. Case presentation We report a case of internal hernia with intestinal perforation beneath the superior vesical artery that occurred one month after laparoscopic pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer. A partial ileum resection was performed and the right superior vesical artery was transected to prevent recurrence of the internal hernia. Conclusions Retroperitonealization after the pelvic lymphadenectomy should be considered in patients with tortuous, elongated arteries which could be causal lesions of an internal hernia.

Abstract Background Aneurysmal degeneration of the coronary button after aortic root replacement using the button technique is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. However, the appropriate management of this complication, including the indications for conservative and surgical treatment, is still unknown. Case presentation Here we present a 38-year-old woman who successfully underwent surgical repair of a left coronary button aneurysm using the graft interposition technique 24 years after aortic root replacement. Because follow-up computed tomography after aortic root replacement showed a progressively enlarging left coronary button aneurysm, the patient was judged an acceptable candidate for surgical treatment, considering the potential risk of aneurysmal rupture and subsequent myocardial infarction. The postoperative recovery was uneventful. The patient is doing well 1 year after the surgery. Conclusions We believe that serial follow-up using computed tomography is mandatory for coronary button aneurysms, and surgical intervention may be considered if progressive enlargement of the aneurysm is observed, especially in younger patients.

AbstractA 25-year-old patient was admitted to the emergency room presenting headaches after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) 30 days before, when he collided frontally with another driver. After a skull radiography, the presence of a foreign body was observed in the frontal sinus. A cranial computed tomography (CT) scan found that it was a tooth. The patient underwent surgical treatment for the removal of the tooth. Traumatic brain injury caused by non-missile penetrating objects is unusual, and has been described in case reports in the literature. To the best of our knowledge, no similar reports can be found in the literature.

Characteristic Imaging

Abstract Background: Bezoar bowel obstruction is a rare entity and remains difficult to detect on imaging studies. Recognition of its characteristic imaging pattern will be useful for diagnosis and management in the setting of intestinal obstruction.Case presentation: We report a 68-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hospital with signs of intestinal obstruction including abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distention. She was diagnosed with phytobezoar small bowel obstruction on computed tomography (CT) imaging. The patient underwent surgery to confirm the diagnosis and subsequently recovered well.Conclusions: Bezoar is indicated by the sign of floating fat-density debris sign on CT images. It needs to be differentiated from small-bowel feces sign in intestinal obstruction.
