AbstractObjective:We report a case of post-partum surgical cervical emphysema, which is a rare but well recognised complication of labour. By reporting the first case in the ENT literature, we aim to raise awareness of this complication, particularly amongst trainees, to ensure that patients are managed most appropriately.Case report:A 36-year-old, primigravida woman developed neck swelling and odynophagia post-partum. Surgical cervical emphysema was palpated, with further examination excluding pneumomediastinum and pneumothorax. The patient was managed conservatively, with complete resolution of symptoms within a week.Conclusions:Surgical cervical emphysema, pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum are all well recognised post-partum complications. The vast majority of cases do not present with respiratory or cardiac compromise and can be appropriately managed conservatively, with expectation of resolution in a fortnight. There is no evidence that such patients are at increased risk during subsequent pregnancies.

Pseudo aneurysm wall is not formed by vascular tissue but develops from organized thrombus, associated fibrosis and surrounding tissue. Post stab injury pseudo aneurysm associated with arteriovenous fistula of lower limb is exceptional. Here one such case is reported who was operated 4 months after the incidence of stab injury in his way back home at an incidence of robbery. The patient was very poor and did not have the ability to seek higher medical care. He was moving everywhere with a big pulsatile mass on supero medial part of his left thigh. Lastly surgical intervention was done and the patient got well.Bang Med J (Khulna) 2015; 48 : 34-36
