Haemangiopericytoma is an uncommon tumour of vascular origin. We report a case of one of the rarer sites of this tumour in man: pelvic paravesical site. We report case of 47 years old man with pelvic hemangiopericytoma and discuss imaging studies and pathohystological findings. Although modern imaging techniques have provided useful information concerning the hypervascular and clearly demarcated appearance of this tumour which displaces but does not invade adjacent organs, its diagnosis can only be established by histology. Its degree of malignancy and its invasive potential are unclear. The risk of local recurrence and metastases in more than one half of cases justifies wide surgical excision, possibly combined with adjuvant radiotherapy, and long-term follow-up. That is to say, that hemangiopericytoma malignum pelvis is the very rare sites of this tumour and till now it is not reported in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Open abdomen treatment (OAT) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. In cases where primary or delayed fascial closure cannot be achieved, vacuum-assisted wound closure and mesh-mediated fascial traction are indicated, which often result in a planned ventral hernia. If secondary skin closure is not feasible, common treatment of granulated abdominal defects involves split-thickness skin-grafting or healing by secondary intention leading to significant scarring and sometimes mutilating defects.

Thinning of anterolateral thigh flap is challenging. Anatomical studies have shown variations in arterial branching patterns in the subcutaneous layer, which were suspected to be the reason for the high frequency of thinning failures. We attempted to visualize subcutaneous arterial courses preoperatively and perform thinning of perforator flaps using this information appropriately.

Assistive technology (AT) professionals are in pressing need with nowadays growing aged/disabled population, so as well-designed higher education programs in this field. This study designed and implemented a case-based active learning approach within an undergraduate course related to AT in Hong Kong, and assessed its impact on enhancing student engagement over two academic years. A total of twelve multimedia patient case dossiers on six major physical disabilities were created.
