Adrenal haemorrhage in pregnancy is rare but can lead to significant maternal and foetal morbidity if unrecognised. We present the case of a 25-year-old woman in her second pregnancy, who was admitted at 34+4 weeks of gestation with severe abdominal pain. Despite initial unremarkable assessments, further imaging revealed a left adrenal haemorrhage, with evidence of prior right adrenal infarction, resulting in primary adrenal insufficiency.

While internal hernias are rare in the paediatric population, it should be considered as a cause for an acute abdomen following blunt trauma. Internal hernias represent a surgical emergency that requires prompt recognition due to the high risk of strangulation and ischaemia of affected bowel loops. The case of a transomental hernia (TOH) is described in a young girl.

Background: Undiagnosed and untreated atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) can result in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). To obtain an accurate diagnosis, it is crucial to recognize the symptoms and signs suggesting renal artery stenosis (RAS) and perform appropriate diagnostic and treatment procedures afterward.
Case Presentation: We present a case of a 60-year-old female patient with hypertensive crisis, acute heart failure (HF), and pulmonary edema as the initial signs of acute kidney injury (AKI) caused by right RAS and left renal artery occlusion in the presence of severe aortic atherosclerosis revealed on computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the abdomen.
