Wandering Liver: A Case Report With Clinical and Radiological Insights.

Wandering liver (WL) is an exceptionally rare anatomical variant, scarcely described in the medical literature. This condition is characterized by hypermobility of the liver within the abdominal cavity, resulting from the weakening, laxity, or absence of the liver's suspensory ligaments. This case report describes a 28-year-old male patient with a history of Sashi-Pena syndrome who presented with chronic, nonspecific abdominal pain, in which cross-sectional imaging incidentally revealed WL.

Impact of Surgical Team Involvement at the Time of Trauma Activation for Pediatric Patients With Motorized Cycle or All-Terrain Vehicle Injury Mechanism.

Objectives: At our institution, level 2 trauma (L2T) activations are primarily managed by pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) physicians, whereas level 1 activations are co-managed by pediatric surgery and PEM. Starting in September 2019, the response to L2T activations due to all-terrain vehicles or motorized cycles (ATVs/MCs) changed to include surgical assessment upon patient arrival due to increased likelihood of significant injuries and need for higher level of care. The impact of PEM/surgery co-management of ATV/MC L2T patients on time to an admission decision is unknown.

Massive Desmoplastic Fibroma of the Proximal Tibia: Case Report.

Desmoplastic fibroma of bone is a very uncommon, benign but locally aggressive fibrogenic tumor. This report describes the case of a 45-year-old patient with a massive desmoplastic fibroma of the proximal tibia. A two-staged surgical procedure was successfully performed: wide resection and endoprosthetic reconstruction.

Genetic diversity of the Chagas vector Triatoma dimidiata s.l. (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) across geographic scales in a top-priority area for control.

Population genetic structure of arthropod disease vectors provides important information on vector movement and climate or other environmental variables that influence their distribution. This information is critical for data-driven vector control. In the first comprehensive study of the genetic structure of T.
