Mesh alone versus combined darn and mesh in primary inguinal hernia repair in adults: a randomized control trial.

Despite the availability of laparoscopy, open surgery remains the most common practice for primary inguinal hernia repair in general surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the combined mesh and darn (CMD) repair compared to mesh alone (MA) repair in treating adult inguinal hernias regarding recurrence and postoperative complications. We conducted a prospective randomized study, including 330 patients with primary inguinal hernias who underwent primary inguinal hernia repair at our facilities between February 2015 and January 2018.

Splenic-preserving surgery in hydatid spleen: a single institutional experience.

Though hydatid disease affects many organs in the human body, splenic hydatid accounts for approximately 0.8-4% of all human echinococcosis cases. Up to recently, splenectomy was the preferred surgery for hydatid spleen.

Sleeve gastrectomy mini-gastric bypass and their effects on type II diabetes mellitus and weight loss outcome.

Bariatric surgeries such as sleeve gastrectomy; mini-gastric bypass surgery are successful weight reduction surgeries which significantly impact metabolic syndrome. The purpose of this research was to assess the impact of laparoscopy gastrectomy and mini-gastric bypasses on weight decrease and diabetes remission of diabetic mellitus type 2 through two years of monitoring. Furthermore, this study looked at the difference between the two procedures regarding their efficacy and identify which one is proper for patients according to their comorbidities.

Trauma-induced large true superficial femoral artery aneurysm: A case report.

Background: A femoral aneurysm is a weakness and bulging in the femoral artery wall located in the thigh. Femoral aneurysms can burst, which may cause uncontrolled bleeding and life-threatening conditions. The aneurysm may also cause a blood clot, showering emboli, potentially resulting in leg ischemia and amputation.

The largest esophageal foreign body in adults: A case report.

Introduction: The swallowing of foreign bodies can be accidental or intentional. The majority of the cases of accidental foreign body ingestion are observed in children. In adults, foreign body ingestion can be accidental, related to specific pathological changes of the digestive tract, or deliberate, as observed in patients with psychiatric diseases or in those released from the prison.

Acute common iliac arterial occlusion caused by ruptured primary cardiac hydrated cyst -A case report.

Introduction: Hydatid cyst of the heart provides very rarely because of contractions of the heart natural resistance to the presence of viable cysts. Patients with cardiac hydatid cyst may remain asymptomatic for many years or have minor nonspecific complaints, but it is associated with an increased risk of lethal complications if left undiagnosed and untreated. Post rupture cardiac hydatid there is disseminated echinococcosis in the body.

Acute limb ischemia caused by ruptured cardiac hydatid cyst - A case report.

Introduction: Acute limb ischemia is a sudden decrease in limb perfusion that threatens the viability of the limb. Complete or even partial occlusion of the arterial supply to a limb can lead to rapid ischemia and poor functional outcomes within hours. In human echinococcosis cardiac involvement is a rare presentation, it may lead to life-threatening complications including cyst rupture; anaphylactic shock; tamponade; pulmonary, cerebral or peripheral arterial embolism.

Adductor magnus muscle primary hydatid cyst rare unusual site: A case report.

Introduction: The preferred localization of human echinococcosis is the liver and lungs, which account for 85% of cases. Primary musculoskeletal hydatidosis are seldom reported in literature and their incidence is unknown. Primary solitary intramuscular hydatid disease is rare, even in countries in which echinococcosis is endemic and accounts for 1% of all human echinococcosis sites.

Isolated primary subcutaneous hydatid in right hypochondrium region: Case report.

Introduction: Hydatid cyst (HC) disease is a serious health problem in endemic areas, solitary primary subcutaneous hydatid cyst is not frequent and the only symptom is generally a silent growing mass. Total excision remains the mainstay of treatment. The aim of the study was to present a case surgically treated.

Agenesis of gall bladder in laparoscopic cholecystectomy-A case report.
