The majority of abdominal aortic aneurysms have been treated by endovascular aneurysm repair in the past decade. Common perioperative complications after this procedure are mostly related to vascular access and improper stent-graft placement. We present the first case of bilateral lower extremity claudication due to severe angulation of the graft-aorta interface, which may have been prevented by a more critical consideration of the patient's anatomy. Treatment required open explantation and repair of the abdominal aortic aneurysms which led to complete resolution of claudication. The results of this case highlight the importance of adherence to instructions for use guidelines.

Background: Chondrosarcomas of the larynx, relatively rare tumors with low grade pathology in approximately 95% of cases, can most often be managed with conservation laryngeal procedures. Dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas are much more rare and aggressive requiring more aggressive surgical extirpation.
Methods: A patient underwent three debulking procedures for a laryngeal chondrosarcoma Grade I/II histologically over a 2.

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare, chronic, neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by painful ulcers that are often misdiagnosed as wound infections. We report two cases of postsurgical PG following breast surgery: A 46-year-old woman with a non-healing ulcer after a breast biopsy and a 37-year-old woman with wound dehiscence after bilateral reduction mammoplasty. Both cases were initially managed with repeated debridements, antibiotics, and wound care without improvement.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a self-limited, idiopathic, non-neoplastic disorder characterized by the proliferation of phagocytic histiocytes, which can mimic malignant lymphoproliferative disease. Cases of RDD most commonly present as bilateral painless cervical lymphadenopathy, with lesser involvement of the axilla, inguinal, and mediastinal lymph nodes. We present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of endometrial serous carcinoma who underwent evaluation at a dedicated breast imaging department after positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed breast masses and axillary nodes with increased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).

To describe the efficacy of belzutifan as a treatment for juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastomas in patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease. A case and its findings were analyzed, and a systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed and Ovid MEDLINE. At a routine follow-up, a 63-year-old woman with a history of von Hippel-Lindau disease and slowly progressive bilateral juxtapapillary retinal hemangioblastomas presented with decreased visual acuity (VA) in the right eye resulting from significant lesion growth and an increase in central macular edema and exudate.
