Gastric necrosis secondary to gastric volvulus in a paraesophageal hernia: a case report.

Hiatal hernias are commonly encountered in clinical practice. In certain cases, especially in large hiatal hernias, gastric volvulus can occur. Patients with volvulus typically will present with vomiting, chest pain, shortness of breath, and dysphagia.

Primary Adenoma Arising From Two Ipsilateral Supernumerary Inferior Parathyroid Adenomas.

A single parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). However, multiple synchronous adenomas can be found at surgery. More uncommon are ipsilateral synchronous adenomas, and that combined with a supernumerary gland, is even more rare.

Gastrointestinal tract metastasis with subsequent intussusception and obstruction from an invasive lobular breast cancer: a case report.

Breast cancer is the commonest cancer in female population with lobular subtype comprising about 10% of all breast cancers. Breast cancer metastasis occurs in 0.3-18% of patients, with lobular cancer again being the most common subtype.

Does robotic-assisted transabdominal preperitoneal (R-TAPP) hernia repair facilitate contralateral investigation and repair without compromising patient morbidity?

Inguinal hernia repair (IHR) is performed through either an open or minimally invasive approach (MIS). MIS allows for exploration and potential repair of an occult contralateral hernia. The aim of this study is to evaluate complications associated with intraoperative contralateral exploration and repair through robotic-assisted (da Vinci) IHR.
