Intussusception of Meckel's Diverticulum: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Colorectal Surgery, Blackpool Teaching Hospitals, Blackpool, GBR.
Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is a common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract, present in approximately 2% of the population. While typically asymptomatic, MD can lead to complications such as obstruction and intussusception. Here, we present a case report of a man presenting with abdominal pain with an incidental finding of MD complicated by intussusception and our management approach.

Ministry of Heath-Jordan, Jordan.
Introduction And Importance: Stricture formation is a well-known Crohn's disease consequence that usually results from recurrent cycles of inflammation and healing and primarily affects the small intestine.
Case Presentation: In this report, we describe the case of a 35-year-old male with an 18-year history of Crohn's disease complicated by long-kinked ileal stricture who presented with a 3-month history of subacute small intestinal obstruction diagnosed with MR enterography and underwent failed medical treatment.
Clinical Discussion: The patient, a male showing signs of wasting due to a prolonged subacute small intestinal obstruction, underwent an MR enterography which revealed a 6-cm kinked ileal stricture.
Giant inguinal hernia with mal-rotation in a resource-limited area: Case report.

School of postgraduate, Amoud University, Somalia; Faculty of Science, Charles University, Czechia. Electronic address:
Introduction: Giant inguinoscrotal hernias (GIH), defined as hernias extending below the inner thigh midpoint in a standing position, are rare and often seen in resource-limited settings due to delayed medical care. These hernias pose surgical challenges, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where standardized management protocols are lacking, and risks such as cardiorespiratory compromise are significant.
Case Presentation: A 55-year-old male presented with a large, irreducible right inguinoscrotal hernia of 1.
Confocal Endomicroscopy Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Abnormalities in Individuals Without Documented Gastro-Intestinal Disease.
United European Gastroenterol J
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, CHU Liège, Liège, Belgium.
Background And Aims: Probe-based confocal endomicroscopy (pCLE) allows real-time microscopic visualization of the intestinal mucosa surface layers. Despite remission achieved through anti-tumor necrosis factor or vedolizumab therapy, anomalies in the intestinal epithelial barrier are observed in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Our study aimed to assess these abnormalities in non-IBD individuals and compare them with IBD patients in endoscopic remission to identify the associated factors.

BMC Med Imaging
January 2025
Department of Radiology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, No. 121, Jiangjiayuan Road, Nan Jing, 210011, P.R. China.
Objectives: This study aims to develop and validate nomograms that utilize morphological and radiomics features derived from computed tomography enterography (CTE) to evaluate inflammatory activity in patients with ileocolonic Crohn's disease (CD).
Methods: A total of 54 CD patients (237 bowel segments) with clinically confirmed CD were retrospectively analyzed. The Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) was used as a reference standard to quantify the degree of mucosal inflammation and assess disease severity.
