An arteria lusoria is a well-known anatomic variant of the right subclavian artery. We describe a patient in whom an arteria lusoria injury was revealed by delayed-onset tension hemothorax following blunt trauma to the thorax.

Acupuncture, an increasingly popular alternative medical therapy, has heightened the demand for information on its safety profile. This is a case report involving a 28-year-old female who presented with intense right-sided chest pain and breathlessness after an acupuncture session where needles were inserted into her chest wall. The immediate medical evaluation revealed a tension pneumothorax with radiographic evidence of a mediastinal shift, compelling, urgent intervention via chest tube insertion.

Introduction: Although ab-interno trabeculotomy-related (goniotomy-related) surgeries has a favorable safety profile, cyclodialysis cleft refractory to conservative management could occur, thereby requiring additional surgical treatment. External and, more recently, internal cycloplexy have been attempted to treat cyclodialysis clefts with hypotony maculopathy, however the traditional methods require conjunctival or scleral incisions and have been inappropriate for glaucoma patients who need to undergo future trabeculectomy. Therefore, we report two cases who underwent a novel reliable technique for suture fixation of the detached ciliary body onto the original scleral bed directly through the intraocular approach without conjunctival or scleral incision, minimally invasive direct internal cyclopexy, in the management of goniotomy-related cyclodialysis cleft with hypotony maculopathy.

Purpose: The identification of sports and physical exercises with injury risk is necessary to preserve the capacity of athletes and people who perform physical education and also to prevent the installation of functional deficiencies.
Methods: We have selected the articles related to the pathogenic mechanisms involved in musculotendinous and fascial injuries produced as a result of physical exercise.
Results And Discussions: The lesional pathogenesis is complex and incompletely clarified.
Tension pneumocephalus in a patient with NF1 following ventriculoperitoneal shunt-deciphering the cause and proposed management strategy.

Introduction: Spontaneous pneumocephalus following ventriculoperitoneal shunting is a very unique complication, seen in a handful of patients. Small bony defects form as a result of chronically raised intracranial pressure, which can later lead to pneumocephalus once intracranial pressure decreases following ventriculoperitoneal shunting.
Case Report: Here, we present a case of a 15-year-old girl with NF1 who presented to us with pneumocephalus 10 months following shunting and our management strategy along with a literature review of this condition.
