Blunt Traumatic Tracheobronchial Injury: a Clinical Pathway.

Background: Motor vehicle collisions (MVC) are a major burden on healthcare systems. Saudi Arabia is one of the countries with a high mortality rate of MVC. Blunt tracheobronchial injuries are rare; however, it is a catastrophic event that requires a high center of care.

Jejunal diverticulosis: A case report.

Introduction: Jejunal diverticulosis is a rare entity that presents a challenging diagnosis due to its vague and non-specific clinical presentations. 40 % of the patients remain asymptomatic until the development of complications.

Case Presentation: We report a case of 84 years old female who presented to the hospital with vomiting and abdominal pain, found to have jejunal diverticulosis complicated by perforation in a CT scan.

Primary Pulmonary Synovial Sarcoma with Hemothorax: a Case Report.

Background: Synovial sarcoma is a rare and aggressive soft tissue malignancy most commonly arises from periarticular tissue of the extremities. Although several cases in the literature have reported different origins, primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma (PPSS) is an exceedingly rare and underrecognized entity, accounting for 0.5% of all lung malignancies.

Management of Very Late Pancreatic Metastasis of Renal Cell Carcinoma 8 Years After Radical Nephrectomy: A Report of a Rare Case.

BACKGROUND The most common primary malignant neoplasm of the kidneys in adults is renal cell carcinoma (RCC), which originates inside the renal cortex and accounts for 80-85% of all primary renal neoplasms. RCCs can spread to many organs, including the liver, lungs, bones, and brain. Disease is quiescent until the late stages of disease in the vast majority of patients.

Colonic mucinous adenocarcinoma with secondary in the breast: A case report and literature review.

Introduction: Secondary breast metastasis from the colonic origin is a rare phenomenon in the literature, and an estimation of an increase in the incidence has been reported in the literature to reach approximately 7%.

Presentation Of Case: We report a case of a 56-year-old male with constipation who underwent extended right hemicolectomy after confirmation of adenocarcinoma of the right colon. The patient was diagnosed with multiple metastases over 5 years and endured numerous resections of the costal margins, ribs, diaphragm, liver wedges, abdominal wall, and the small bowel.

Changes in Heart Rate Variability and Baroreflex Sensitivity During Daytime Naps.

Background And Objectives: Changes in autonomic cardiac activity during night sleep are well documented. However, there is limited information regarding changes in the autonomic cardiac profile during daytime naps. Heart rate variability (HRV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) are reliable measures of autonomic cardiac activity.

Bilateral uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic sympathectomy for managing secondary Raynaud's in CREST syndrome: A case report.

Introduction: Secondary Raynaud's is a manifestation that can present in CREST syndrome as a variant of five different diseases: Calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, Esophageal dysmotility, Sclerodactyly, and Telangiectasia. Secondary Raynaud's presents as a result of an imbalance between vasoconstriction and vasodilation potentially leading to tissue ischemia. The mainstay treatment is medical while surgery treatment preserved as a last resort.

Radiologically Guided Management of Secondary Spontaneous Pneumothorax.

Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax is a serious medical condition that typically occurs in patients with an underlying lung pathology such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Those patients are usually compromised and more amenable to higher morbidity and mortality rates. Moreover, they are poor candidates for general anesthesia and mechanical ventilation due to their poor health condition.
