AI Article Synopsis
- The case involves a rare type of abdominal injury where a 30-year-old male experienced severe disruption of the abdominal wall and bowel evisceration after being run over.
- Surgical intervention included an abdominal exploration and reconnection of damaged bowel sections (jejunum and sigmoid colon) through end-to-end anastomosis.
- Despite the extensive injury, the abdominal wall defect was managed in stages without requiring plastic surgery, leading to a successful recovery.
Article Abstract
Blunt traumatic abdominal wall disruptions associated with evisceration (abdominal wall injury grade type VI) are very rare. We describe a case of large traumatic abdominal wall disruption with bowel evisceration and complete transection of jejunum and sigmoid colon that occurred after a 30-year-old male sustained run over injury to abdomen. Abdominal exploration and primary end to end jejuno-jejunal and colo-colic anastomosis were done. Staged management of giant abdominal wall defect was performed without any plastic reconstruction with good clinical outcome.

Background: The most frequent type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Although lymph nodes are the most commonly affected organs compromising 70% of DLBCLs, only 5% of extranodal lymphomas represent skeletal muscle involvement. Specifically, abdominal wall muscle involvement is rare and there are only a few reported cases of DLBCL with this type of muscle involvement.

Splenic cysts are rare medical conditions, and their incidence is dominated by parasitic types. Non-parasitic splenic cysts, whether true cysts (with a cellular lining of the cystic wall) or pseudocysts (without a cellular lining), are significantly rarer than parasitic ones. Their etiology is not fully established, with fetal remnant development, metaplasia, and mesothelial invagination being widely accepted possible mechanisms.
