Malrotation of the gut is rare in adults. We discuss the case of a 30-year-old primiparous woman who presented to the acute gynecology ward at 19-weeks’ gestation with ongoing nausea and vomiting throughout pregnancy. She attended on a number of occasions with the same symptoms and was trialed on a number of different antiemetics. Initial biochemical investigations were unremarkable, however, the patient started to develop signs of ‘abdominal obstruction’. A magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the pelvis showed evidence of duodenal obstruction secondary to malrotation which may be secondary to a fibrous (Ladd’s) band. She was treated laparoscopically via a Ladd procedure and had an uneventful recovery. Interestingly, the patient presented again in her second pregnancy with very similar symptoms and underwent another Ladd procedure, but via a laparotomy. This is an interesting, rare and unusual case of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy.

✓ The authors present an unusual case of intramedullary arachnoid cyst diagnosed in a patient after the lesion was resected. A wide decompressive surgery was performed and the lesion removed. Histopathological findings were consistent with the diagnosis of arachnoid cyst. Postoperatively the patient exhibited marked improvement in neurological status. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no case report of intramedullary arachnoid cyst reported in the literature. With the advent of newer neuroimaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging the number of cases of intramedullary arachnoid cysts encountered in the future may increase.

Pitutary adenomas are one of the commonest tumors of seller region of which prolactinomas and non- functioning adenomas predominate. The usual presentation are symptoms of endocrine dysfunction and mass effects. We present a case report of 37 year old male presenting with frontal headache and vomiting. Clinical observations revealed frontal bossing with enlarged hands and feet which arose a suspicion of Acromegaly. Investigations revealed elevated IGF 1 (insulin like growth factor) and growth hormone levels. Magnetic resonance image of the brain were done which showed pituitary adenoma. This case highlights the importance of clinical examination and the treating physician must have high clinical index of suspicion to detect endocrine dysfunction and use the modern techniques like stereotactic radio surgery (SRS).

We present a case of quadrilateral space syndrome (QSS) in a patient with left arm pain. The patient sustained a trauma to his left arm, and QSS was successfully diagnosed by physical examination, magnetic resonance image, electromyographic evaluation, and nerve conduction studies. Surgery was performed to decompress the axillary nerve and the patient recovered fully with minimal residual symptoms.

Introdução: O osso navicular é um dos ossos do tarso que mais raramente sofre uma fratura. Com o formato de um barco e posicionado entre a cabeça do tálus e dos três cuneiformes, desempenha um papel importante na sustentação da coluna medial do pé. Uma vez fraturado, pode ter seu diagnóstico feito através da radiografia, tomografia computadorizada, ressonância magnética ou ainda por cintilografia óssea. Objetivo: Relatar um caso incomum de fratura do osso navicular, diagnosticado apenas pela ressonância magnética. Relato do Caso: Mulher de 41 anos que após uma queda referiu dor em seu pé direito com piora ao caminhar. Apresentava dor à palpação na porção medial e dorsal do mediopé e edema. Radiografia do pé normal. A ressonância magnética apresentou traço de fratura na porção medial do osso navicular. Conclusão: Apesar de incomum, as fraturas do mediopé devem ser pesquisadas com métodos de imagem e, mesmo quando a radiografia seja normal, na continuação da sintomatologia do paciente, exames de maior acurácia devem ser realizados, tais como a TC e a RM.Palavras chave: Ossos do tarso, Fraturas ósseas, Imagem por ressonância magnéticaABSTRACT:Introduction: The navicular bone is one of the tarsal bones that most rarely suffers a fracture. Shaped like a boat and positioned between the head of the talus and the three cuneiforms, it plays an important role in supporting the medial column of the foot. Once fractured, the diagnosis can be made through radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, or even bone scintigraphy. Objective: To report an unusual case of fracture of the navicular bone, diagnosed only by magnetic resonance imaging. Case Report: A 41-year-old woman who, after a fall, reported pain in her right foot, which worsened when walking. He had pain on palpation in the medial and dorsal portion of the midfoot and edema. The radiograph of the foot is normal. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a fracture in the medial portion of the navicular bone. Conclusion: In spite of being uncommon, midfoot fractures should be investigated with imaging methods and, even when the radiograph is normal, in the continuation of the patient’s symptoms, more accurate tests should be performed, such as CT and MRI. Keywords: Tarsal bones, Bone fractures, Magnetic resonance imaging
