Neonatal Paratesticular Scrotal Mass: A Rare Case of Atypical Neurofibromatous Neoplasm with Uncertain Biologic Potential.

Atypical neurofibromatous neoplasm with uncertain biologic potential presenting as a paratesticular scrotal mass in a neonate with congenital giant melanocytic nevus is rare. Only one such case of neonatal scrotal neurofibroma has been reported earlier. We report an additional case and its management.

Complicated duodenal perforation in children: Role of T-tube.

Background: Diagnosis of duodenal perforation (DP) in children is often delayed. This worsens the clinical condition and complicates simple closure.

Objectives: To explore the advantages of using T-tube in surgeries for DP in children.

VACTERL Associated with a Rare Limb Anomaly Combined with Edward (Trisomy 18) Syndrome.

VACTERL association is a heterogeneous condition that includes at least three out of six core structural defects which occur together more commonly than would be expected by chance alone. We report a rare association of VACTERL with unilateral proximal focal femoral deficiency and trisomy 18 syndrome.

Gossypiboma mimicking posterior urethral stricture.

Introduction: Foreign bodies in the urogenital tract are not uncommon. Hairpins, glass rods, umbilical tapes, ball point pen are described in lower urogenital tract. Retained gauze piece (gossypiboma) in posterior urethra may cause diagnostic dilemma.

Sudden endotracheal tube block in a patient of Achalasia Cardia.

Endotracheal tube block due to various mechanical causes such as mucous, blood clot, denture, and ampoules have been reported. A patient of achalasia cardia with chronic passive aspiration pneumonitis developed mucoid mass in the respiratory passage which dislodged during the surgical procedure. The episode occurred almost an hour after induction of anesthesia and the dislodged mucoid mass blocked the lumen of endotracheal tube, leading to hypoxia and impending cardiac arrest.
