Collision tumor of the appendix with concomitant cecal adenocarcinoma: A case report and literature review.
Int J Surg Case Rep

Department of Surgery, Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Introduction: Collision tumors of the appendix are rare tumors consisting of two distinct pathologies arising from different cell lines simultaneously. The most common type is the coexistence of a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) with a low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN). We report a unique case of appendiceal collision tumor with synchronous cecal intra-mucosal carcinoma and pulmonary sarcoidosis.

Subhepatic appendicitis is an unusual presentation of acute appendicitis (AA). Similarly, another uncommon condition that resembles AA is appendiceal diverticulitis (AD), which is a rare form of vermiform appendix pathology. It is exceedingly uncommon for the two to occur simultaneously.

We present a case of multiple abdominal pathologies occurring simultaneously, which emphasizes the importance of keeping a broad differential and evaluating each diagnosis. A 33-year-old female presented with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Her workup included computerized tomography which demonstrated acute appendicitis with concern for a closed-loop bowel obstruction.

The prediction of the coexistence of acute appendicitis and renal colic can be challenging, especially when the patient's symptoms point toward one diagnosis. In this case report, we describe a patient who presented to the emergency department with severe lower abdominal pain that was thought to be solely due to acute appendicitis. Further evaluation, however, revealed the simultaneous coexistence of a right ureteral stone, causing severe hydroureteronephrosis.

Article Synopsis
- Severe infections can cause immune cells to overreact, leading to lasting organ damage, while anti-inflammatory drugs may increase infection risks instead of helping.
- A new nanomedicine using nanoparticles loaded with a photosensitizer and a chemiluminescent agent targets an inflammatory environment to effectively kill pathogens and overactive immune cells.
- This innovative approach has shown significant success in various infection models, suggesting these nanoparticles could be a promising treatment option for severe infectious diseases by balancing infection control and inflammation reduction.
