Introduction: We aim to report a case of squamous cell carcinoma 29 years following restorative colonic transplant in esophagoplasty for caustic ingestion and to emphasize the importance of long-term follow-up.
Presentation Of Case: We report a case of a 59-yo patient with malignant degeneration of colon transplant squamous cell 29 years following restorative esophagoplasty for caustic ingestion. He reported symptoms of progressively worsening dysphagia, odynophagia, and left cervical mass with fistula.
Acute intestinal invagination is the pathology of infants and small children. Its occurrence in adults is rare, and it represents 1 to 5% of intestinal occlusions often leading to the discovery of an organic cause that may be tumor. We report the case of a 72-year-old patient admitted to the emergency room of Ibn Sina Rabat, Morocco, for intestinal occlusion.

Aim: We evaluated the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of AKT1 and LMTK3 and the risk of colorectal cancer in a case-control study in Moroccan population.
Internal hernias are defined as the protrusion of abdominal viscera through an aperture in the intraperitoneal recesses, they are considered as a rare cause of intestinal obstruction. The paraduodenal hernias are the most common type of congenital hernia especially the left-sided ones.
