Splenic volvulus on ectopic spleen in adults: A case report.

Ectopic spleen is a rare clinical entity characterized by splenic hypermobility which may be congenital or acquired. The spleen may be migrated to different positions in the peritoneum. The main complication is pedicular torsion with splenic volvulus, presenting as an emergency abdominal surgery.

Incarcerated primary anterior liver hernia: A case report.

The anterior liver hernia is a very rare entity that mainly occurs within an incisional hernia. Primary anterior liver hernia, in the absence of a previous abdominal incision, is extremely rare. The diagnosis is suspected in patients with epigastric bulging.

Spontaneous splenic rupture during infection of cytomegalovirus. A case report.

Splenic rupture is most commonly encountered after blunt abdominal trauma. Spontaneous atraumatic splenic rupture is a rare but dramatic occurrence that is most commonly attributed to infection or neoplasia. We report the case of a 27-year-old female patient without pathological history.

Primary true enterolithiasis: A rare cause of acute small bowel obstruction.

Enterolithiasis is an uncommon medical condition. It's defined by the formation of gastrointestinal concretion in the setting of intestinal stasis. Enteroliths are typically incidentally discovered during imaging and are a rare cause of acute small bowel obstruction.

Utero-cutaneous fistula following cesarean section: A case report.

Utero-cutaneous fistula is a rare pathology. It mostly occurs consecutively to surgical intervention such as Cesarean section. Blood discharge from the cesarean scar during menstruation is a quasi-pathognomonic feature.

A Rare Case of Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency.

Unlabelled: Lipomatous pseudohypertrophy (LPH) of the pancreas is an uncommon affection of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. It is defined as substitution of the pancreatic exocrine gland by a large fat component. We report the case of a young patient with malabsorption syndrome (chronic diarrhoea and steatorrhoea), abnormal laboratory results and normal fibroscopy.

[Nutcracker syndrome: a rare cause of abdominal pain in adults that shouldn't be ignored: a case report].

Nowadays, the knowledge of vascular abnormalities is essential for all specialists in their clinical practice and may prevent serious complications through early interventions. Nutcraker syndrome is caused by left renal vein (LRV) compression, usually occurring in the fork formed by the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and leading to the narrowing of the aortomesenteric portion of the left renal vein and to the dilatation of its distal portion. Symptoms are dominated by lumbar, abdominal, pelvic pain and haematuria.

Emphysematous Pancreatitis: A Rare Complication of Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis.

Unlabelled: Emphysematous pancreatitis is a rare and fatal complication of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. We report a radioclinical observation of a 61-year-old female patient who consulted for epigastric pain radiating to the back, associated with vomiting and elevated lipasaemia more than 3 times the normal value. The abdominal computerized tomography (CT) scan carried out on the fourth day of hospitalization, based on worsening of the clinical condition, showed pancreatic necrosis associated with the presence of air bubbles.
