Crohn’S Diseases

Crohn's disease may affect any segment of the gastrointestinal tract; however, isolated duodenal involvement is rather rare. It still remains a complex clinical entity with a controversial management of the disease. Initially, patients with duodenal Crohn' s disease (DCD) are managed with a combination of antiacid and immunosuppressive therapy. However, medical treatment fails in the majority of DCD patients, and surgical intervention is required in case of complicated disease. Options for surgical management of complicated DCD include bypass, resection, or stricturoplasty procedures. In this paper, we reported a 33-year-old male patient, who was diagnosed with isolated duodenal Crohn’s diseases, and reviewed the surgical options in the literature.

It is the most common benign mass found at the junction of the anterior two third and the posterior one third of the tongue. It requires to be excised if it becomes symptomatic by becoming a goiter. It is usually treated medically by thyroxin suppression therapy. However, in cases where the response to medical treatment is poor, it can be excised or transposed. We present a case report of a 28-year-old female with Lingual thyroid who underwent a novel surgical cervical transposition procedure with good result.</span></p>

Spontaneous Intracerebral Haemorrhage

Abstract A haemorrhagic cerebrovascular accident refers to a spontaneous bleeding in the cerebral parenchyma, located either supratentorial or infratentorial, that occurs in the absence of a surgical or traumatic cause. The incidence is estimated at 12-15 new cases per 100.000 inhabitants per year. Intracranial haemorrhage is the third most frequent cause of stroke, the vast majority being represented by primary/hypertensive (spontaneous) intracerebral haemorrhage, ruptured saccular aneurysm, a vascular malformation or haemorrhage associated with the use of anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents. A cerebral tomography computer examination is the examination of choice in diagnosis of haemorrhagic CVAs. The treatment can be either therapeutic or surgical, depending on the case, with the consideration that an immediate medical treatment is mandatory for the best odds of recovery.(1)

Background. Macroprolactinemia is defined as predominance of high molecular weight prolactin forms in the circulation. Although macroprolactin is considered as a biologically inactive molecule, some authorities suggest treatment in symptomatic cases. Gigantomastia is defined as excess breast tissue and most cases in the literature were treated by surgical intervention.Case. A 44-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with gigantomastia and galactorrhea. The patient had a demand for surgical therapy. In laboratory examination, she had hyperprolactinemia and macroprolactinemia. Pituitary imaging revealed 6 mm microadenoma in right side of the hypophysis. Since she was symptomatic, cabergolin treatment was started. Macroprolactin became negative, breast circumference decreased significantly, and galactorrhea resolved after treatment.Conclusion. Gigantomastia might be the presenting symptom in patients with macroprolactinemia. In these patients medical treatment with cabergoline may be used initially as an alternative to surgical approach.

AbstractThe main aim of this case report is to thoroughly describe the steps of diagnosis and treatment in the rare incidence of patellar tendon gouty tophus. The case of a 53-year-old man manual worker who was treated with open excision of the lesion, following failure of extended medical treatment with rheumatological input, is presented. Surgical treatment led to full restoration of the patient's knee function. Open or arthroscopic surgery is a viable option for the unusual case of intratendinous patellar gouty deposition if the patient fails medical management. Medical treatment should still be the mainstay.
