Ileocecal intussusception as the initial presentation of endometriosis: case report.

Cecal endometriosis is a rare entity that can present as nonspecific acute abdominal pain and can be complicated by ileocolic intussusception, which is extremely infrequent. We present the case of a 33-year-old woman with no relevant pathological antecedents who consulted for abdominal pain for 5 days, associated with rebound tenderness and abdominal guarding on the right lower quadrant and a palpable mass during the physical examination. Computed tomography was realized and emergency surgery performed due to suspected ileocolic intussusception.

Complex giant incisional hernia repair with intraperitoneal mesh: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: An incisional hernia is one of the most frequent complications after abdominal surgery, with an estimated incidence of 2-20% after midline laparotomy. They are often caused by poor wound healing. We present the case of a complex giant incisional hernia that was repaired by implanting an intraperitoneal mesh.

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of complicated acute diverticulitis: A retrospective cohort study.

Introduction: Currently, the debate on the usefulness of Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) as a predictor of complications in acute diverticulitis (AD) remains open, especially, the relation to the severity of the disease, the clinical impact, and the necessity of minimally invasive or emergency surgical procedures. On the other hand, its diagnostic efficacy has not been studied even in our field. The objective of the present study was to determine the utility and diagnostic precision of NLR in complicated acute diverticulitis (cAD).

Multiple intestinal perforations due to primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma: A case with an infrequent extra-nodal presentation.

Introduction: Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) is an uncommon subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (2-3%), predominantly occurring in female young adults. Extrathoracic involvement is found in 10-20%. It can affect the kidneys, pancreas, stomach, adrenal glands, liver, and infrequently the central nervous system (6-9%).

[Congenital renal arteriovenous fistula: a rare cause of acute abdomen and a review of its literature].

Introduction: Congenital renal arteriovenous fistula is an abnormal connection between the arterial and venous system. Since the first case described in 1928 by Varela et al, no more than 200 cases have been published.

Material And Methods: A 45-year-old woman consulted for severe abdominal and low-back pain associated with arterial hypertension.
