Left Para-duodenal hernia with distal bowel ischemia: An unusual presentation of the internal hernia: A case report and literature review.

Internal hernias, including Left para duodenal Hernias (LPDH), are rare and challenging to diagnose due to their nonspecific symptoms and complex anatomical presentation. This report presents a unique case of a 29-year-old female with preoperatively diagnosed uncomplicated LPDH, complicated by distal bowel ischemia-a manifestation not extensively documented in existing literature. Initial imaging revealed dilated jejunal loops indicative of LPDH, with subsequent contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) showing ischemic changes in bowel segments distal to the hernia.

Retrocaval ureter presenting with hydronephrosis: A case report of rare entity in Nepal.

Hydronephrosis, characterized by the dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces, often results from obstructive uropathy, commonly due to ureterolithiasis. However, rare congenital anomalies, such as a retrocaval ureter (RCU)-where the ureter passes behind the inferior vena cava- can also cause hydronephrosis. This case report describes an 11-year-old male presenting with right-sided flank pain and hematuria.

Comparative evaluation of knee osteoarthritis: radiography vs. ultrasonography in Nepalese population: a cross-sectional study.

Background And Objectives: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative and long-term debilitating disease with rising prevalence, predominantly involving larger joints including the knee joint. While radiography has traditionally been the primary modality for joint evaluation, there is a growing trend towards using ultrasonography (USG) for musculoskeletal disorders, including joint assessment. This study aimed to find the role of USG in the evaluation of OA of knee joints with comparison to the radiographs.

Incidental diagnosis of bilateral common iliac artery aneurysms: a case report and comprehensive literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Aneurysms are dilatations of arteries, with abdominal aortic ectasias (AAE) considered precursors to abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Iliac artery aneurysms (IAAs), often accompanying AAA, present a serious risk, particularly due to rupture. Here, the authors present a case highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing isolated bilateral common iliac artery aneurysms (CIAAs).

Surgical management of extensive facial vascular malformation with skin graft: A multidisciplinary approach-Case report.

Vascular malformations are rare congenital abnormalities of blood vessels that persist throughout life. Large vascular malformations affecting the facial region can be distressing and require meticulous management to achieve satisfactory outcomes and prevent recurrence. Here, we present a case of a 40-year-old man with a progressively growing tumor-like mass on the right side of his face, extending from the periorbital region to the chin.

Association between gallstone disease and carotid intima-media thickness: a prospective observational cross-sectional study in a tertiary care center.

Background And Objectives: Gallstone disease (GD) is a prevalent health issue globally, particularly in developed nations, and has notable associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD). This prospective observational cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the association between gallstone disease and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), a marker of carotid atherosclerosis, in a tertiary care setting.

Method: Conducted at a tertiary care center, the study included 96 participants (48 with gallstone disease and 48 age and sex-matched controls).

Challenging diagnosis and management of anaplastic meningioma in a pediatric patient: A case report.

This case report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic journey of a 16-year-old female presenting with chronic headaches, ultimately diagnosed with anaplastic meningioma. Despite its rarity in pediatric patients, anaplastic meningioma necessitates swift recognition and management due to its aggressive nature. Imaging findings, including CT and MRI, initially suggested a provisional diagnosis of hemangiopericytoma, emphasizing the diagnostic challenge posed by this condition.

Traumatic cavernosal artery pseudoaneurysm: a rare cause of erectile dysfunction following pelvic trauma: a case report and comprehensive literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Erectile dysfunction (ED) resulting from pelvic trauma, particularly cavernosal artery pseudoaneurysm, poses a complex clinical challenge. Traumatic injuries, including blunt force trauma, can lead to diverse vascular complications affecting erectile function. Recognizing and addressing these issues is pivotal for optimal patient management.

Bilateral Optic Neuritis in a Patient with Enteric Fever: A Case Report.

Background: Bilateral optic neuritis following enteric fever is a rare condition requiring early evaluation by an ophthalmologist and prompt treatment for visual rehabilitation.

Case: A 31-year-old female diagnosed with enteric fever presented to the Neuro-ophthalmology department with sudden painful loss of vision in both eyes for 10 days.

Observations: Her Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was counting fingers close to face in left eye and 6/18 in right eye.

Microbial dynamics and climatic interactions in pig sheds: Insights into airborne microbes and particulate matter concentrations.

Emissions of airborne pollutants from livestock buildings affect indoor air quality, the health and well-being of farmers, animals and the environment. This study aimed to evaluate the microbial count within pig sheds and its relationship with meteorological variables (temperature, relative humidity and air velocity) and particulate matter (PM and PM) and microbial diversity. Sampling was conducted both inside and outside of two pig sheds over three seasons (summer, rainy and winter), with regular monitoring at fortnightly intervals.

Angiodysplasia simulating variceal bleeding: a challenging case report of diagnosis and intervention.

Introduction And Importance: Angiodysplasia, a prevalent vascular anomaly in the gastrointestinal tract, often presents with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, sharing symptoms with gastric varices. The diagnostic challenge arises due to overlapping clinical features. This case report highlights the importance of considering angiodysplasia in the differential diagnosis, especially when variceal bleeding is less likely, and emphasizes the role of various diagnostic modalities in accurate identification.

Evaluating aortomesenteric parameters in a tertiary center of Nepal for superior mesenteric artery syndrome diagnosis and risk factors: cross-sectional study.

Background And Objectives: This study examines aortomesenteric angle (AMA) and distance (AMD), which are critical in superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome. Addressing the scarcity of SMA cases, the research explores potential links with lower BMI and aims to establish normative data for diagnostic and predictive purposes, using contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scans across various BMI and sex categories.

Methodology: A retrospective quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted on 189 patients undergoing abdominal contrast-enhanced CT scans between December 2019 and December 2020.

Pericardial hydatid cyst: A comprehensive case report on diagnosis and multidisciplinary intervention in a young patient.

Pericardial hydatid cysts, although rare, present unique diagnostic challenges and require a multidisciplinary approach for effective management. This parasitic infection, caused by larvae, typically affects the liver and lungs but can manifest in the pericardium, leading to potentially life-threatening complications if untreated. The 22-year-old female's escalating dyspnea posed diagnostic challenges despite inconclusive echocardiography.

Anencephaly in a triplet pregnancy: Unprecedented spontaneous reabsorption in-utero and subsequent normal delivery via c-section: A rare case report.

Multiple pregnancies are infrequently encountered, with the incidence of spontaneous triplet pregnancies estimated at approximately 1 in 7000 pregnancies. Triplet gestations are recognized for their propensity to bring about a spectrum of pregnancy related complexities, encompassing fetal structural abnormalities, neurological anomalies, disturbances in amniotic fluid levels, preterm labor, and suboptimal neonatal outcomes. Anencephaly is a serious congenital defect where the brain and skull do not fully develop, often leading to a poor prognosis.
