Cecal Perforation Induced by Migrated Biliary Stent as a Rare Complication of ERCP: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a non-surgical method utilized to manage biliary tract obstruction, but the complication of biliary stent migration occurs in 5-10% of patients. Though migrated stents are commonly passed through the gastrointestinal tract without harm, intestinal perforation is a rare but severe complication, affecting less than 1% of cases. We report a case of a 65-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department with symptoms of abdominal pain, nausea, and loss of appetite.

Peritoneal tuberculosis pretending an acute abdomen; a case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Peritoneal tuberculosis (PTB) is an infrequent clinical condition that frequently eludes diagnosis. The scarcity of PTB cases underscores the necessity for heightened vigilance within clinical settings to detect its presence. Notably, there has been a noticeable increase in PTB incidence in recent years.

A ventral hernia containing appendix; a case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Abdominal wall hernia is a protrusion of abdominal contents through an acquired or congenital weakness or wall defect. A ventral hernia, including an appendix, is a rare condition. The appendix in the hernial sac is already known as inguinal and femoral hernia and has been named Amyand hernia and De Garengeot hernia, respectively.

Bariatric Surgery and Femoral Vein Diameter in Morbidly Obese Patients: a Cohort Study in Iran.

Introduction: Considering the importance of health, the effect of obesity on the quality of life, the person's self-image, and the effect of obesity on various organs, especially the vessels, and the absence or presence of a study in Iran that investigated the effect of gastric bariatric surgery on the diameter of the femoral vein, in the present study, we investigated the effect of bariatric surgery on femoral vein diameter in morbidly obese patients referred to Imam Hossein hospital.

Materials And Methods: The present study was a prospective cohort study on morbidly obese patients referred to the center in 2022-2023. In this study, 31 morbidly obese patients with BMI above 30 kg/m who were candidates for bariatric surgery were examined.

Spontaneous ventral gallbladder hernia complicated with perforation; a case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Ventral gallbladder hernia is a rare condition mostly related to past acquired abdominal wall defects, but spontaneous ones are scarce. It happens more in elderly patients. Etiology and causes are still unspecified, but the most related known causes of spontaneous gallbladder herniation are carcinoma, biliary tracked occlusion or abdominal wall weakness in elderly patients, respectively.

Small bowel volvulus and mesenteric ischemia induced by mesenteric cystic lymphangioma in an adult and literature review; a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Mesenteric cystic lymphangioma (MCL) is a rare benign intraperitoneal mass with congenital origin, and it is extremely rare in adults. Mesentery is an unusual location for cystic lymphangioma too. Clinical presentations are nonspecific, and diagnosis is challenging.

Taenia saginata, the incidental find in case of intestinal perforation after blunt trauma and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Taenia saginata (T. saginata) is one of the most common cestodes in humans. Isolated perforation of the small bowel after blunt abdominal trauma is infrequent and the diagnosis should be based on exclusion.
