Bilateral congenital inguinal hernia with right-sided Amyand's hernia in a premature twin: Case report and a summary of clinical presentations, management and outcomes in neonates and infants with Amyand's hernia.

Introduction And Importance: Congenital hernias occur 70% on the right side, 25% on the left side, and approximately 5% bilaterally. The finding of a congenital Amyand's hernia is of interest, especially in patients who do not present risk factors associated with connective tissue disorders, ascitic conditions, fetal developmental disorders or any condition that increases abdominal pressure.

Case Presentation: Male patient, 6 months old, was brought to the pediatric surgery department due to a visible mass in the bilateral inguinal region, which protruded with crying.

First case report of spontaneous perinatal gastric perforation in premature neonate with potter sequence and syndrome.

Introduction And Importance: The Potter sequence is defined as a series of congenital defects related to severe oligohydramnios, associated with polycystic kidney disease, bilateral renal agenesis, pulmonary hypoplasia, obstructive uropathy and premature rupture of membrane, which compromises the life of the neonate sometime after birth. Within the evidence published so far, which is very little, no perforation of the gastrointestinal tract has been reported as a complication of this condition.

Case Presentation: Male neonate born preterm with prenatal diagnosis of pulmonary hypoplasia, polycystic renal dysplasia and severe oligohydramnios (Potter sequence), presented acute respiratory distress syndrome 10 min after birth, requiring mechanical ventilation and admission to the intensive care unit.

Perforación de colon secundaria a empalamiento autoinfligido: a propósito de un caso.

El empalamiento es una causa grave y rara de lesión anorrectal, pudiendo darse en multitud de contextos, ya sea de índole accidental, psiquiátrica o por prácticas sexuales o criminales. El objetivo de este manuscrito es mostrar al autoempalamiento como agente causante de lesión anorrectal, de presentación extraordinaria. Se presenta un caso de empalamiento autoinfligido con perforación intestinal en un hombre de 44 años, que acudió al servicio de urgencias sin el objeto causante de la lesión y con un cuadro de abdomen agudo, debido a hemoperitoneo, peritonitis fecal y perforación en la unión rectosigmoidea.
