Ruptured Endometrioma Associated With Acute Appendicitis: A Case Report.

Endometrioma is a localized form of endometriosis, usually found within the ovaries bilaterally, containing degenerated blood products resulting from bleeding of ectopic endometriotic tissue at different ages. Rupture of the endometrioma is a rare complication that may result in hemoperitoneum and peritonitis and thus presents similarly to other more common abdominal emergencies, and the concomitant presence of a ruptured endometrioma and another abdominal emergency, although exceptional, remains possible. Ultrasonography and sectional imaging can be used to assess a diagnosis that is often confirmed postoperatively.

Jejuno-jejunal intussusception secondary to feeding jejunostomy tube: a case report.

Feeding jejunostomy is a simple and common procedure used to provide enteral nutrition. Acute intestinal intussusception on a jejunostomy tube is a rare complication that can have catastrophic consequences and often requires urgent surgical intervention. We report the case of a 45-year-old female patient with a stenosing hypopharyngeal tumor leading to complete aphagia.

Perforated degenerated immature teratoma of the ovary: Rare cause of acute peritonitis, case report and review of the literature.

Introduction And Importance: Malignant transformation of ovarian teratomas is rare, provoking peritonitis and death are exceedingly rare.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a 75-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department for severe abdominal pain with septic shock due to acute peritonitis caused by perforation of the ovarian mass.

Clinical Discussion: Teratomas are germ cell tumors usually composed of multiple cell types derived from one or more of the three germ layers.

Surgical management of sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) secondary to tuberculosis: A case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP), commonly known as abdominal cocoon syndrome (ACS), is considered one of the rare causes of bowel obstruction [1].

Case Presentation: In this article, we report the case of a 20-year-old male patient with a 6-month history of recurrent colicky right-sided upper abdominal pain accompanied by nausea, vomiting and bloating, which gradually increased in severity and frequency. The contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography suggested a small bowel obstruction with a differential diagnosis of SEP.

Malignant transformation of hepatocellular adenoma: report of a case.

Hepatocellular adenomas are benign liver tumours that occur mainly but not exclusively in young women taking contraceptives. Their malignant transformation into hepatocellular carcinoma is a rare complication that has been rarely reported in women taking contraceptives. The purpose of our work is to remind the epidemiological and diagnostic features of malignant transformation of hepatic adenomas by reporting the case of a hepatocellular carcinoma developed from a hepatocellular adenoma diagnosed within the Pathology Department of the Mohammed VI university hospital of Oujda.

Acute hemoperitoneum after ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma: First Moroccan SCARE-compliant case report and literature review.

Introduction: Acute hemoperitoneum with a spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rare type of internal bleeding that requires a multidisciplinary management approach.

Presentation Of Case: In this case report, we describe a fortuitously ruptured peripheral and discovered HCC in an 81-years-old woman treated effectively using hepatectomy.

Discussion: The use of the computed tomography (CT) angiography to diagnose the stability of the patient's condition allows both arterial embolization in case of active bleeding and the evaluation of the underlying hepatopathy.

Leiomyosarcoma of scrotum: case report.

Scrotal leiomyosarcoma is rare tumor. It presents as a painless, slow-growing cutaneous lesion. It's often mistaken for a benign condition.

[Breast tuberculosis: about a case].

Breast tuberculosis is rare. It poses a problem of differential diagnosis because it may be mistaken for breast cancer as clinical examination and diagnostic imaging are not specific. Breast tuberculosis should be suspected especially in endemic countries or in immunosuppressed individuals.

LRP5 variants may contribute to ADPKD.

Mutations in Polycystic Kidney Disease proteins (PKD1 or PKD2) are causative for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). However, a small subset of ADPKD probands do not harbor a mutation in any of the known genes. Low density lipoprotein Receptor-related Protein 5 (LRP5) was recently associated with hepatic cystogenesis in isolated polycystic liver disease (PCLD).

Whole-exome sequencing reveals LRP5 mutations and canonical Wnt signaling associated with hepatic cystogenesis.

Polycystic livers are seen in the rare inherited disorder isolated polycystic liver disease (PCLD) and are recognized as the most common extrarenal manifestation in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Hepatic cystogenesis is characterized by progressive proliferation of cholangiocytes, ultimately causing hepatomegaly. Genetically, polycystic liver disease is a heterogeneous disorder with incomplete penetrance and caused by mutations in PRKCSH, SEC63, PKD1, or PKD2.

Primary tuberculoma of the liver: a case report and literature review.

We report the case of an immunocompetent patient with an isolated tuberculoma of the liver, which was diagnosed by percutaneous US-guided liver biopsy. The patient received an antitubercular therapy, and there has been no relapse to date.

Giant malignant cystic pheochromocytoma: a case report.

Cystic malignant pheochromocytomas are uncommon. Differing from solid pheochromocytomas, which produce catecholamines and present adrenergic syndrome, cystic pheochromocytomas, may not produce these. Preoperative diagnosis may be difficult.

Giant liposarcoma of the omentum mimicking an ovarian tumor. A case report.

Liposarcomas are common soft tissue of the retroperitoneum and the limbs. They are rarely found in the greater omentum. Once in the peritoneum, these can become enormous and can be mistaken for ovarian mass.

Graves' disease allied with multiple pheochromocytoma.

Pheochromocytoma is an uncommon cause of high blood pressure touching adults. The combination of severe hypertension in the triad of headache, sweating, and tachycardia should suggest this diagnosis; this clinical picture is similar to that of hyperthyroidism. We report the case of a 22-year-old patient with multiple pheochromocytoma associated with Graves' disease revealed by malignant hypertension and discussed the difficulties of the diagnosis and the treatment approach.

Right diaphragmatic iatrogenic hernia after laparoscopic fenestration of a liver cyst: report of a case and review of the literature.

Iatrogenic right diaphragmatic hernia is very rare. We report the first case of a patient who had a diaphragmatic hernia after laparoscopic fenestration of liver cyst. A herniorrhaphy of the diaphragmatic defect was carried out after reducing the herniated organ.

Pancreatic GIST with pancreas divisum: A new entity.

Introduction: Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are uncommon intra-abdominal tumours. These tumours tend to arise with a higher frequency in the stomach and the small bowel. In fewer than 5% of cases, they originate primarily from extra-gastrointestinal tumours (EGISTs).

Giant trichobezoar of duodenojejunal flexure: a rare entity.

Unlabelled: Bezoars are concretions of undigested material in the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the stomach. Duodenojejunal localization of bezoars is exceptional. We report a case of a 27-year-old woman who experienced nausea, vomiting and severe abdominal pain for one week.

Patient satisfaction in an acute medicine department in Morocco.

Background: Patients' satisfaction is an important indicator for quality of care. Measuring healthcare quality and improving patient satisfaction have become increasingly prevalent, especially among healthcare providers and purchasers of healthcare. This is mainly due to the fact that consumers are becoming increasingly more knowledgeable about healthcare.

Stromal duodenal tumor revealed by an acute pancreatitis: report of a case.

Introduction: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are one of the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the human gastrointestinal tract. Duodenal GISTs are very rare and constitute less than 5% of all kind of GISTs.

Case Report: This is a report of a rare gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the duodenum in a 25-year-old female who was presented as an acute pancreatitis.
