Intracardiac migration of inferior vena cava (IVC) filter or stent is a rare but potentially fatal complication of endovascular venous device placement. There is no consensus whether migrated stents should be surgically removed by open cardiac surgery or retrieved by the percutaneous endovascular route and whether an intervention should be performed immediately or expectantly. Herein, we report a 39-year-old female who received emergent left lobe living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) owing to posthepatectomy liver failure.

Background: Petroclival meningiomas are still a neurosurgical challenge due to their proximity to cranial nerves and cerebral vasculature along the surgical corridor. The usual extension of large petroclival meningiomas is along the posterior fossa, frequently compromising and displacing adjunct cranial nerves such as the sixth and seventh-eight cranial nerve complex with brainstem compression, causing progressive neurological deficit and severe headache. The goal of sizeable petroclival meningioma surgery treatment is a maximal resection with preservation of neurological function.

In 2014 a 36-year-old healthy female-to-male transgender patient attended the London Women's Clinic to consider oocyte and embryo freezing before sex reassignment surgery. The patient began IVF treatment in 2015; from two cycles, nine metaphase II oocytes and five blastocysts were frozen. Three years later the patient returned with his partner, a 39-year-old healthy transgender male-to-female individual, ready to start a family with surrogacy treatment.
