Aortic ulcerated plaque discovery following mesenteric infarction in a 60-year-old patient: a case report.

Introduction: A penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU), which accounts for 2-7% of all acute aortic syndromes, is the ulceration of an aortic atherosclerotic plaque that passes through the internal elastic lamina and into the aortic medium. Although PAUs are frequently seen in the middle and lower descending thoracic aortas, it is rare for them to arise in the ascending aorta. Atherosclerotic vascular illnesses and isolated peripheral arterial illnesses are associated with similar risk factors, such as male sex, advanced age, a history of tobacco use, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and coronary artery disease.

A 37-year-old female with a carotid body tumor (paraganglioma): A rare case report from Syria.

Introduction And Importance: This case study presents the clinical details of a 37-year-old woman who presented with an asymptomatic swelling in the right supraclavicular region, ultimately diagnosed as a carotid body tumor (CBT).

Case Presentation: The patient's medical background, which included her brother's CBT, prompted further investigation. Upon clinical examination and imaging studies, a tissue mass surrounding the right internal carotid artery was identified.

A 24-year-old patient with testicular benign capillary hemangioma: A rare case report.

Key Clinical Message: The importance of urologists and pathologists being knowledgable about primary testicular hemangiomas and other benign adult testicular neoplasms, though rare, is crucial. Ensuring these professionals are well-versed in these conditions is vital in medicine. Testicular sparing surgery, especially when tumor markers are negative, is a common approach for patients with small or uncertain testicular masses.

Co-occurrence of ectopic pancreas and superior mesenteric artery syndrome in a child: A case report and literature review.

Ectopic pancreas refers to pancreatic tissue that lacks vascular or anatomical connection with the main body of the pancreas. Superior mesenteric artery syndrome involves the compression of the third part of the duodenum between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. We present a case of a 12-year-old female with a 4-year history of recurrent episodes of severe epigastric pain, improved by sitting and leaning forward, and occurred monthly for nearly 48 h.
