AI Article Synopsis
- - An 85-year-old man experienced sudden aphasia and right-sided weakness and was diagnosed with a cerebral infarction, leading to an emergency mechanical thrombectomy for treatment.
- - During the procedure, the patient's leg flexed while replacing a sheath in the femoral artery, causing a massive scrotal hematoma and subsequent cardiopulmonary arrest, which he recovered from after CPR.
- - The scrotal hematoma, while serious, was managed with manual compression and did not enlarge; the case highlights the risks of puncture site complications during neuro-endovascular treatments.
Article Abstract
Objective: We report a case of huge scrotal hematoma during emergency mechanical thrombectomy.
Case Presentation: An 85-year-old man presented with sudden aphasia and right-sided hemiplegia. He was diagnosed with cerebral infarction due to left M1 occlusion and underwent an emergency mechanical thrombectomy. The treatment was completed with full recanalization, but when replacing the long sheath in the right femoral artery with a short sheath, the patient flexed his leg. The sheath could not be replaced, resulting in a massive scrotal hematoma. Shortly after, the patient went into cardiopulmonary arrest but recovered spontaneous circulation after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The puncture site was treated hemostatically with manual compression, and the scrotal hematoma was not enlarged. He was transferred to another hospital with a modified Rankin Scale score of 5.
Conclusion: Scrotal hematoma is a rare but potentially fatal puncture site complication that should be considered during neuro-endovascular treatment.

A Novel Technique for Inguinal Hernia Repair in Patients With Nonmalignant Ascites.
Cureus
December 2024
Surgery, Morsani College of Medicine, University of South Florida, Tampa, USA.
Introduction: We report a novel approach to open inguinal hernia repair in patients with known ascites in which the cord, hernia sac, and attached testicle on the affected side are repositioned into the retroperitoneum through the inguinal ring. By avoiding invasion of the peritoneum and limiting dissection of the sac off the spermatic cord, the risk of ascites leak and testicular ischemia is theoretically decreased.
Methodology: This is a retrospective case series report.

Department of Pediatric Surgery and Urology, Medical University of Bialystok, Waszyngtona 17, 15-274, Bialystok, Poland.
Cryptorchidism, the absence of one or both testicles in the scrotum, is the most common anomaly of genitourinary tract in males. The pathogenesis of undescended testes is unknown however the role of inflammation, tissue remodeling and oxidative stress is postulated. The aim of this study was to explore the role of HSP-70, MMP-3, MMP-17 and IL-8 in possible pathogenic pathways connected with cryptorchidism.
