PLoS One
December 2024
Department of Medical Imaging, The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Gusu School of Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.
Objective: To analytically depict the associated malformations of polysplenia syndrome (PS) in adults via computed tomography (CT).
Materials And Methods: The incidence of malformations associated with PS in twelve adult patients was retrospectively analyzed via CT imaging.
Results: The number of splenic nodules ranged from three to twelve; the splenic nodules were located in the left upper quadrant in nine patients and in the right upper quadrant in three patients.
Acute gastric volvulus combined with pneumatosis coli rupture misdiagnosed as gastric volvulus with perforation: A case report.
World J Gastrointest Surg

Department of General Surgery, Anqing Municipal Hospital, Anqing 246000, Anhui Province, China.
Article Synopsis
- Acute gastric volvulus is a rare and challenging surgical condition that can lead to serious complications like gastric ischemia and necrosis if not diagnosed early.* -
- The case involves a 67-year-old woman with symptoms of abdominal distension and retching, where imaging revealed free air in her abdomen but no typical signs of perforation.* -
- Endoscopic treatment effectively restored normal organ positions, and the presence of free air was linked to potential colonic air cyst rupture, highlighting the importance of considering other causes when diagnosing gastric torsion.*

Article Synopsis
- The case describes a rare portal vein (PV) anomaly during embryonic development, specifically highlighting the presence of three distinct portal veins identified through CT venography.
- The anatomical structure involves the superior and inferior mesenteric veins forming a trunk that splits into one vein entering the liver and another joining the splenic vein, which further divides into two branches entering the liver.
- This report emphasizes the significance of understanding PV anatomy for surgical planning, as such duplications are extremely rare and can inform better clinical practices among healthcare professionals.
