Post molar choriocarcinoma with solitary renal metastasis in the absence of primary uterine tumor: a case report and review of the literature
ConclusionsUrological symptoms such as hematuria or spontaneous renal hemorrhage might be the only presentation of post molar choriocarcinoma with renal involvement. Thus, it can be beneficial to measure serum beta human chorionic gonadotropin levels among females of childbearing age who present with unexplained urological symptoms, especially if there is a history of prior hydatiform mole.

Intestinal intussusception as a postoperative complication of gastric bypass
We present the case of a 41-year-old female who underwent a laparoscopic gastric bypass 8 years prior to her admission to the emergency room, where she arrived complaining of severe and colicky epigastric abdominal pain. The abdominal computed tomography showed a jejuno-jejunal intussusception, for which the patient underwent urgent exploratory laparotomy with intussusception reduction. Intestinal intussusception is a possible postoperative complication of a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.PMID:38537228 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.21000795 (Source: Cirugia y Cirujanos)

Surgical Site Infections in Trauma Exploratory Laparotomies Preoperative Ceftriaxone and Metronidazole Versus Cefoxitin
Am Surg. 2024 Mar 27:31348241241695. doi: 10.1177/00031348241241695. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSurgical site infections (SSIs) remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing traumatic exploratory laparotomy. The goal of this study was to compare antibiotic usage and subsequent outcomes in patients undergoing traumatic exploratory laparotomy. A retrospective chart analysis and a chi-square test of independence were performed to examine the relation between preoperative cefoxitin versus ceftriaxone and metronidazole and the rate of SSI development. 323 patients were analyzed, 111 patients re...

Heterotopic Ossification of the Abdomen: A Rare Sequela Following Trauma and Damage Control Laparotomy
We present the case of a 22-year-old man, 20 months after life-threatening motor vehicle crash with major vascular injury requiring multiple abdominal surgeries. The patient was initially treated at a community hospital and subsequently developed a chronic left lower quadrant enterocutaneous fistula, accompanied by a gradually worsening diffuse abdominal pain. He was referred to our tertiary care center with extensive skin breakdown and an inability to control the fistula despite numerous wound care consultations. He also had severe abdominal deformities due to HO in the abdominal wall, peritoneum, paraspinal muscles, and ...
