Tumor mimicking cervicocranial actinomycosis with intracranial extension- a diagnosic dillema-first case report in somalia.

Actinomycosis is a rare bacterial infection characterized by nonspecific clinical and radiological manifestations. It often presents in cervicofacial, abdominopelvic, and thoracopulmonary forms, with cervicofacial being the most common. The extensive differential diagnosis and vague clinical and radiological features contribute to diagnostic challenges.

Bilateral Orbital Cellulitis Causing Septic Pulmonary Embolism and Subsequent Bilateral Pneumothorax: A Rare Case Report.

Introduction: Septic pulmonary embolism is a serious and rare complication of orbital cellulitis. Orbital infection usually arises from adjacent soft tissue or hematogenous infections.

Case: A 2-year-old girl presented with high-grade fever, cough, and bilateral eyelid swelling for 5 days preceded by edema and a perinasal facial skin furuncle.

Giant external iliac-vein aneurysm presenting urinary urgency as first symptom: A rare case report.

A venous aneurysm is the dilation of a single communicating venous system, with or without an associated arteriovenous fistula. The literature documents a few cases of such aneurysms. A seventy-year-old man came to our hospital complaining of increased urinary frequency for the last few months, a left leg ulcer, and swelling of the left lower quadrant of the abdomen for 2 years.

Atypical perforated appendicitis secondary to schistosomiasis: a rare case report.

Introduction: Schistosomiasis is the second most common parasite disease after malaria and a rare cause of appendicitis. It has been well-documented in the literature that schistosomiasis infection can have several multisystem effects. The unusual condition known as schistosomal appendicitis was initially described by Turner.

Anal extrusion of silent migrated ventriculoperitoneal shunt: Case report and literature review.

The standard surgical treatment for hydrocephalus is ventriculo-perioneal shunting with shunt failure being the most common complication. A rare and serious consequence is intestinal perforation. A malnourished 9-month-old boy presented with anal protrusion of the distal migrated ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt after 2 months of shunt placement.

Isolated temporal infarct due traumatic vertebral artery dissecting pseudo-aneurysm: a rare case report.

The authors describe a rare case of traumatic vertebral artery dissecting pseudo-aneurysm with temporal lobe infarct in the pre-foramina segment of the left vertebral artery following knife injury of the left anterolateral neck area. A 40 years old man was admitted to the emergency department after a penetrating injury in the left anterolateral neck. On contrast-enhanced CT and Doppler ultrasonography in the neck, a dissecting pseudo-aneurysm of the vertebral artery was revealed.

Bilateral bifid mandibular condyle associated with ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint in a 6-year-old child.

Bifid mandibular condyle with ankylosis is an extremely rare condition and may arise as a developmental or traumatic defect. We report here a case of bilateral bifid mandibular condyle with ankylosis in a 6-year-old child. The patient had severe limitation of mouth opening and history of trauma 2 years ago.

Sonographically diagnosed and conservatively managed case of polyorchidism: A case report.

Polyorchidism is a congenital abnormality with distinct sonographic characteristics. In most cases, sonography is sufficient for diagnosis. In instances of complicated polyorchidism, an MRI may provide further information.

A case report of Fournier's gangrene: Imaging ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scan.

Necrotizing fasciitis and/or Fournier's Gangrene is a rare, life-threatening soft tissue infection that, if not treated promptly, can immediately develop into systemic toxicity. It affects the genital, perineal, and perineal tissues, predominantly affecting men but can be seen in women. The diagnosis is often made clinically but radiologic examinations are helpful to determine the extent of the infection and can aid preoperative planning.
