Evisceration of the small intestine through the anus is an extremely rare event in children. We report a 2-year-old boy who sustained transanal small bowel evisceration associated with bilateral diaphragmatic rupture, left diaphragmatic herniation, and spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality which happened after crushing by motor vehicle. We reviewed children with transanal small bowel evisceration and discussed etiological differences between children and adult. We also discussed the basic principles of management and follow up in these patients.

Purpose: Current guidelines recommend endoscopic resection for rectal neuroendocrine tumors (RNETs) under 10 mm. Incomplete resections necessitate salvage procedures, highlighting the need for complete R0 resection. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of wide hot snare polypectomy (WHSP) compared to endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for the salvage treatment of small RNETs.

Background: Anastomotic leakage (AL) and small bowel obstruction (SBO) are common complications after rectal cancer radical surgery (Dixon). Although the commonly used defunctioning stoma (DS) can reduce the incidence and harm of AL, it increases the probability of other adverse consequences, including SBO. Therefore, a safe and effective method for preventing the complications related to the radical surgery of rectal cancer is urgently needed.
