Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a very sensitive examination to detect pancreatic masses and can provide useful information in cases where conventional radiologic workup remains inconclusive. We present three cases in which EUS was decisive in establishing the correct diagnosis. Case 1: A 74-year-old female was hospitalized because of acute pancreatitis. Medical history, CT and MRI gave no clue to etiology, but EUS diagnosed a small pancreatic tumor. Case 2: A female patient was admitted because of abdominal pain and weight loss. While MRI suspected a pancreatic tumor, EUS showed typical features of autoimmune pancreatitis. Case 3: A 50-year-old patient was hospitalized with cachexia, ascites and pulmonary embolism. At first, a pancreatic tumor was suspected, but EUS showed a cystic lesion with a solid component (pancreatic pseudocyst).

Evidence Level

Thrombosed urethral prolapse is a rare clinical condition. In this context, we describe our experience and compare our findings with the literature, following presentation of five consecutive cases over 2 years. This will hopefully improve awareness and appropriateness of specialty referrals as a correct diagnosis is rarely established prior to the patient being seen by a urologist. We also wish to highlight a case presentation of thrombosed urethral prolapse outside the bimodal age distribution which has been recorded in the literature. Level of Evidence: Level 4

Acute puerperial uterine inversion is a rare life threatening obstetric emergency, in which the uterine fundus collapses into and out of the uterine cavity. Although precise cause is unknown, it is postulated to be caused by the mismanagement of the third stage of labour. The duration of time elapsed from moment of diagnosis to that of correction, along with rapid resuscitation measures are of utmost importance in its prognosis. Principle of treatment includes resuscitation followed by manual reduction of inversion uterus. Surgical procedure may be needed if reinversion is impossible. Reporting here are series of cases with acute inversion of uterus at third stage of labour followed by a short review of the literature.
