Intensive care for seriously ill patients affected by novel coronavirus sars - CoV - 2: Experience of the Crema Hospital, Italy.

Aims: In this work, the survival and mortality data of 54 consecutive patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and suffering from severe respiratory insufficiency imputable to viral SARS - CoV - 2 infection were analyzed and shared, after a critical review of the evidence in order to optimize the most dedicated clinical and treatment strategy, for a future 'targeted' management in the care of the possible return flu outbreak.

Methods: At our Emergency Department of the Crema Hospital, from the beginning of the pandemic until the end of June 2020, 54 consecutive patients admitted to ICU suffering from severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) and severe respiratory distress (ARDS) attributable to viral SARS - CoV - 2 infection were recruited. The recruitment criterion was based on refractory hypoxia, general condition and clinical impairment, comorbidities and CT images.

Emergency treatment of violent trauma: clinical cases and surgical treatment of penetrating thoracoabdominal, perineal and anorectal trauma.

Aim: The authors analyse clinical cases of penetrating thoracic, abdominal, perineal and anorectal injury and describe the traumatic event and type of lesion, the principles of surgical treatment, the complication rate and follow up.

Materials And Methods: In the last 24 months, we analyzed 10 consecutive cases of penetrating thoracic and abdominal wounds [stab wound (n=7), with evisceration (n=4), gunshot wound (n=1)], and penetrating perineal and anorectal wounds (impalement n=4). In addition, we report an unusual case of neck injury from a stab wound.

[The rupture of splenic artery aneurysm in Erdheim disease].

Splenic vessel aneurysm is often a casual pathology during strumental imaging or laparotomy. The first cause for the formation of the aneurysm is a vessel primitive degenerative pathology of the medium wall, or idiopathic cystic medionecrosis, that to develop in aneurysmatic dissection. In the early diagnosis, in the selective patients, resulted indicate an endovascular therapy, while in emergency the laparotomy is a gold strandard for reduction morbility and mortality.

[Anal Masson's tumor].

The Authors report on an extremely rare case of anal Masson's tumour and has described clinical and histological considerations. Is important the surgical resection of the lesion because this tumour is similar to angiosarcoma.

[Early diagnosis in acute mesenteric ischemia. Case series and clinical review].

The AA report on 12 cases of intestinal infarction for acute mesenteric ischemia (IMA) in critical patients observed in the last 2 years. In this work some clinical data, blood tests and strumental considerations are described. IMA is a vascular emergency with severe prognosis and high rate morbidity and mortality, often correlated to a diagnostic delay.
