Successful posterior urethroplasty with gracilis muscle flap interposition and a VY gluteal flap of the perineal wound gap following abdominal-perineal resection: A case report.

Unlabelled: An iatrogenic urethral perineal fistula can cause challenging problems for surgical reconstruction. In most cases, treatment is performed in three steps: double-diversion urinary and intestinal diversion, closure, and diversion. The augmented posterior urethroplasty interposition with a gracilis muscle function flap for the repair of the perineal gap was successful.

An extremely rare neoplasm 'atypical spindle cell pleomorphic lipomatous tumor': a case report.

Spindle cell lipoma is a rare histological variant of lipoma accounting for 1.5% of adipocytes tumors. It is composed of an admixture of mature adipocytes and fibroblast-like spindle cells in a myxoid stroma.

Treatment outcomes of esophageal cancer in Eastern Africa: protocol of a multi-center, prospective, observational, open cohort study.

Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a major cause of cancer morbidity and mortality in Eastern Africa. The majority of patients with ESCC in Eastern Africa present with advanced disease at the time of diagnosis. Several palliative interventions for ESCC are currently in use within the region, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy with and without chemotherapy, and esophageal stenting with self-expandable metallic stents; however, the comparative effectiveness of these interventions in a low resource setting has yet to be examined.

International Study of the Epidemiology of Paediatric Trauma: PAPSA Research Study.

Objectives: Trauma is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The literature on paediatric trauma epidemiology in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is limited. This study aims to gather epidemiological data on paediatric trauma.

Parasitic twin within spina bifida.

Spinal dysraphisms in association with accessory limbs are extremely rare congenital anomalies. The potential mechanisms of development and classification of these anomalies remain unclear. We report a unique case of a baby boy with an accessory foot and external genitalia in association with spina bifida.
