Case Report: False aneurysm as a late unusual complication of the aortofemoral bypass graft in a patient with critical leg ischemic symptoms: interesting case.

Aortofemoral bypass surgery is a common procedure for treating aortoiliac occlusive disease, also known as Leriche syndrome, which can cause lower extremity ischemic symptoms. Diagnostic imaging techniques play a crucial role in managing pseudoaneurysms (PSAs), with Duplex ultrasound and Computed Tomography-angiography (CTA) being effective tools for early diagnosis. Pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) present as pulsating masses with various symptoms, and prompt intervention is essential to avoid complications.

Volvulus of a wandering spleen in a pediatric patient.

Wandering spleen is a rare condition in children that is often caused by the loss or weakening of the splenic ligaments. Its clinical presentation is variable; 64% of children with wandering spleen have splenic torsion as a complication. A 13-year-old boy who had been showing abdominal pain in the hypogastric region accompanied by vomit and an enormous tumefaction in the suprapubic region came to our observation.

Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava.

Inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor that originates from the smooth muscle cells of the venous media and is more frequent in females in the V-VI decade of life. Due to scarce and specific symptoms, diagnosis is not simple, and often metastases to the liver, lungs, and/or lymph nodes are already present. A 44-year-old male patient arrives at our institution presenting diffuse abdominal pain and a sense of weight associated with lumbar pain.

Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord: The state of art and our experience.

Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord is a malignant neoformation so rare that less than 200 cases are reported in the world. It is a tumor that originates from adipose tissue and when it is found in the spermatic cord it can deceptively simulate an inguinal hernia and not be easily identified. The present work describes the case of a 37-year-old man with liposarcoma of the spermatic cord who arrives at our institution with painless swelling of the left testicle.

Para-oesophageal hernia in 4-month-old girl: possible role of ultrasound-case report and literature review.

Hiatal hernia is the passage of digestive tract portions into the posterior mediastinum through a defect in the esophageal diaphragmatic hiatus. By guidelines, the diagnosis uses first-level radiographic investigations such as chest X-ray and contrastographic methods. As of today, use of ultrasonography in the suspicion/diagnosis of hiatal hernia is not standardized although it shows advantages such as not using ionizing radiation, which is essential in the small pediatric patient.
