Collision tumors, characterized by the coexistence of two unique neoplasms in close approximation, are rare and pose diagnostic challenges. This is particularly true when the unique neoplasms are of the same histologic type. Here we report such a case where comprehensive tumor profiling by next generation sequencing (NGS) as well as immunohistochemistry revealed two independent adenocarcinomas comprising what was initially diagnosed as a single adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal (GEJ) junction.

Background: Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are slow-growing, cystic, highly morbid central nervous system tumors located adjacent to vital structures including the pituitary, hypothalamus, and optic chiasm. Tumor recurrence is common. Treatment relies on resection with or without adjuvant radiation and is highly individualized.

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are slow-growing, expansile bone tumors most often observed in the long bones and lumbar and thoracic spine. Anterior column ABCs of the spine are rare, and few cases have described their surgical management, particularly for lesions with extension into the odontoid process and the bilateral C2 pedicles. In the present case, the authors describe a two-stage strategy for resection of a symptomatic 2.

High-pressure injection injuries, although rare, are commonly discussed orthopaedic surgical emergencies. In many cases, high-pressure injection injuries can have detrimental effects on the patient. However, there are rare instances where surgical intervention may be more harmful than helpful.

Monopolar electrocautery is usually a safe and effective technique used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy and bile duct surgery, but it may lead to adverse consequences, even ventricular fibrillation (VF). Amiodarone is an effective antiarrhythmic drug commonly used in practice to treat ventricular and atrial arrhythmias, but it may induce tachyarrhythmia or even VF. We report a case of VF occurring twice during cholecystectomy.
