Article Synopsis
- Intussusception is rare in older patients, making it hard to diagnose, and it usually appears differently in adults compared to children, often leading to delayed diagnosis.
- The article discusses a case of a 13-year-old boy with chronic anal fissure and constipation, where an MRI unexpectedly revealed a colocolic intussusception.
- The case highlights the need for healthcare professionals to consider intussusception as a possible diagnosis in teenagers, even when symptoms seem nonspecific.
Introduction: Considering the importance of health, the effect of obesity on the quality of life, the person's self-image, and the effect of obesity on various organs, especially the vessels, and the absence or presence of a study in Iran that investigated the effect of gastric bariatric surgery on the diameter of the femoral vein, in the present study, we investigated the effect of bariatric surgery on femoral vein diameter in morbidly obese patients referred to Imam Hossein hospital.
Materials And Methods: The present study was a prospective cohort study on morbidly obese patients referred to the center in 2022-2023. In this study, 31 morbidly obese patients with BMI above 30 kg/m who were candidates for bariatric surgery were examined.
Introduction And Importance: Taenia saginata (T. saginata) is one of the most common cestodes in humans. Isolated perforation of the small bowel after blunt abdominal trauma is infrequent and the diagnosis should be based on exclusion.

- Sexual violence has significant long-term physical and psychological effects on victims, with a notable portion of rectal foreign body (RFB) cases resulting from sexual assault and patients often delaying reporting their injuries.
- The case presentations involved three male patients, averaging 41 years old, who sought help about two days post-assault due to foreign objects resulting from violence; these included items like bottles and water pipes.
- Treatment of these cases must prioritize not only the physical removal of the foreign bodies, using methods ranging from anal procedures to surgical intervention, but also address the psychological trauma to support the patient's overall recovery.

Background: Appropriate nutritional support after major surgeries is a real medical concern. As traditional surgical techniques have been replaced by novel methods, postoperative care should be revised as well.
Background: A period of starvation after colorectal anastomosis to permit for resolution of the clinical evidence of ileus has been an unchallenged surgical dogma until recent years. We intended to determine the safety and feasibility of an unconventional postoperative oral intake protocol in patients experiencing colorectal anastomosis.
Materials And Methods: Between 2013 and 2015, sixty consecutive patients underwent colorectal anastomosis and they were randomized into two groups.
