Blunt trauma of the scrotum is sometimes associated with severe injuries such as testis rupture. However, there are few reports of traumatic rupture of the epididymis with blunt scrotal trauma. In addition, severe epididymis injuries after scrotal trauma are always associated with severe testis trauma. We experienced a case of solitary rupture of the left epididymis that occurred in a traffic accident. We report herein such a case and review the literature. To our knowledge, this case is the 4th case of solitary epididymis rupture by blunt scrotal trauma.

Introduction And Importance: Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a rare benign vascular tumor characterized by abnormal endothelial proliferation and inflammatory cell infiltration, primarily affecting the head and neck region. The diverse clinical presentations of ALHE pose significant diagnostic challenges, often leading to misdiagnosis. Accurate histopathological examination is crucial for differentiating ALHE from other vascular lesions and guiding appropriate treatment.

The nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) contains neurons that relay sensory swallowing commands information from the oropharyngeal cavity and swallowing premotor neurons of the dorsal swallowing group (DSG). However, the spatio-temporal dynamics of the interplay between the sensory relay and the DSG is not well understood. Here, we employed fluorescence imaging after microinjection of the calcium indicator into the NTS in an arterially perfused brainstem preparation of rat (n = 8) to investigate neuronal population activity in the NTS in response to superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) stimulation.
