Stomach and duodenal ulcer as a cause of death in patients with cancer: a cohort study.
Int J Emerg Med

Faculty of Medicine, University of Kalamoon, Al_Nabk, Syria.
Introduction: Non-cancer deaths are now becoming a significant threat to the health of cancer patients. Death from stomach and duodenal ulcer is linked to cancer due to the side effects of treatment and its pathogenesis. However, guidelines for identifying cancer patients at the highest risk of death from stomach and duodenal ulcer remain unclear.

BACKGROUND The configuration of the hepatic arteries is known to vary substantially between individuals. Here, we report a rare retroperitoneal configuration of an accessory hepatic artery existing alongside a left and right hepatic artery branching from the proper hepatic artery. During routine dissection, we discovered an anomalous configuration of the hepatic arteries that does not fit the commonly used categorizations for abnormal hepatic vasculature.

Article Synopsis
- A 78-year-old male patient presented with persistent vomiting due to a rare case of metastatic urinary bladder cancer, which led to gastric outlet obstruction.
- Despite recent follow-up showing no disease recurrence, tests revealed duodenal stenosis and abnormal mesenteric fat swelling, initially misinterpreted as inflammation.
- A laparoscopic exploration confirmed peritoneal carcinomatosis, ultimately identifying urothelial cancer cells, highlighting the need for clinicians to think about metastatic bladder cancer in similar situations.
Background: In April 2024, our hospital confirmed a rare case of intra-abdominal infection by Kodamaea ohmeri. The patient sought medical attention at our hospital after taking painkillers orally for one month, experiencing recurrent abdominal pain for 17 days and worsening for 7 days. In March 2024, the patient received symptomatic treatment with oral analgesics (diclofenac sodium) for arthritis.

Tierklinik Düsseldorf GmbH, Düsseldorf, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate the detection frequency and anatomy of the duodenal papillae and related structures in cats, using ultrasound on 50 cats.
- - The major duodenal papilla was detected in all cases, while the minor one appeared in 10%. Key dimensions of the anatomical structures were measured in clinically healthy cats.
- - Findings suggest that ultrasound exams of duodenal papillae are straightforward and can be an essential part of diagnosing conditions in feline patients.
