Article Synopsis
- Hirschsprung's disease is a congenital condition where no ganglion cells are present in the colon, affecting its ability to move waste; it can often be misdiagnosed, even into adulthood.
- A case study of a 20-year-old male showed that after years of untreated chronic constipation, he faced an intestinal obstruction that led to emergency surgery and a diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease.
- The treatment involved Soave-type surgery, which was successful, and the study suggests that adults with long-term constipation issues may need to be evaluated for this disease.
Introduction: pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a benign condition that affects the knee, leading to abnormal proliferation of the synovial membrane and the accumulation of hemosiderin in the joint cavity. Although it can be surgically treated, PVNS tends to have a high recurrence rate, potentially resulting in chronic joint damage.
Case Report: we present the case of a young woman who experienced localized pain in her right knee due to a recurrence of PVNS.
The Double Bundle U-DOS Reverse Technique for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tears is a novel arthroscopic technique that combines two well-known procedures: the mono-tunnel approach and the medial-portal approach, provides better posterior stability, improved functional outcomes, and a reduced risk of posterior tibial subluxation. This technique allows for the simultaneous treatment of anterolateral and posteromedial bundles and has been successfully performed on 16 patients, with follow-up showing sufficient support and resistance to posterior tibial subluxation or excessive displacement, resulting in a stable knee joint.
