Annular pancreas is a rare congenital anatomical anomaly, in which the pancreatic parenchyma surrounds the descending duodenum. Generally, annular pancreas is diagnosed on the basis of symptoms associated with complications of peptic ulcer, pancreatitis, cholelithiasis, and rarely, malignant tumors. Herein, we report an 84-year-old man for whom, during hospitalization for a urinary tract infection, pancreatic cystic lesions and an annular pancreas were noted incidentally on computed tomography.

The posterior belly of the digastric muscle, referred to as the "resident's friend," serves as a valuable anatomical landmark because identification of its location during head and neck surgery helps to secure vital structures. A 53-year-old female was referred for an oral cavity mass with a biopsy confirmed squamous cell cancer. A physical exam revealed a 4 cm long and 2 cm wide right ulcerated oral tongue mass.

Acute aortic occlusion (AAO) is a rare and life-threatening condition, mostly secondary to acute thrombosis or embolism. It usually presents as bilateral lower limb ischemia; however, in rare cases, spinal cord infarction might coexist, mimicking cauda equina syndrome. We present a rare case of AAO by saddle embolism of a thoracic aortic mural thrombus.

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death among non-communicable diseases. The management strategy prioritizes early detection and optimal treatment, with emerging roles for imaging approaches. Photon-counting computed tomography is a new non-invasive diagnostic imaging tool that can detect high-risk plaques in coronary artery disease patients.

Department of Anorectal Surgery, Longhua Hospital, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Ulcerative colitis (UC) and psoriasis are highly correlated clinically; however, it is unclear whether they have a common pathophysiological mechanism. The purpose of this study is to investigate the important molecules and pathways that mediate the coexistence of UC and psoriasis through quantitative bioinformatics analysis of public RNA-sequencing databases. The UC (GSE38713) and psoriasis (GSE30999) datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.
