Case report on a rare complication after transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) for rectal malignancy vesicorectal fistula.

Introduction And Importance: Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision (TaTME) represents the latest surgical approach in rectal cancer management. We present a rare case of vesicorectal fistula (VRF) following a complication of TaTME surgery.

Case Presentation: A 67-year-old male underwent a Hartmann's procedure for perforated rectosigmoid cancer in 2019.

Case report on a rare cause of small bowel perforation perforated ileal diverticulum.

Introduction: Complications due to small bowel non-Meckel's diverticulosis is an uncommon clinical scenario encountered in clinical practice. A diverticulum in the ileum is rare among the locations of the diverticulum in the small intestine. We describe an unusual case of ileal diverticular perforation presenting as an acute abdomen.

Case report on a rare cause of silent duodenal perforation.

Introduction: Foreign body ingestion is a common clinical scenario encountered in clinical practice. Perforations related to foreign bodies are rare (<1%) but can present as a serious element in Emergency surgery. The most common site of perforations are angulated areas like ileocecal valve, sigmoid colon and duodeno-jejunal flexure and small bowel.

Strategies for Differentiating Gallbladder Carcinoma from Xanthogranulomatous Cholecystitis-a Tertiary Care Centre Experience.

Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) is an uncommon variant of chronic cholecystitis, characterized by focal or diffuse destructive inflammatory process. The importance of XGC is that it mimics gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) both preoperatively and intra-operatively, since it can present with pericholecystic infiltration, hepatic involvement and lymphadenopathy. As a result of this misdiagnosis which is not infrequent, the patient may need to undergo an unnecessary radical cholecystectomy rather than only a cholecystectomy which is associated with greater morbidity and mortality.

Amyand's hernia with appendicitis masquerading as Fournier's gangrene: a case report and review of the literature.

Background: The incarceration of an appendix within an inguinal hernia sac is known as Amyand's hernia. Appendicitis in Amyand's hernia accounts for 0.1 % of the cases.

New scoring system for differentiating xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis from gall bladder carcinoma: a tertiary care centre experience.
