Case Report of Incarcerated Gastric Volvulus and Splenic Herniation in Undiagnosed Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia in an Infant
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8VD27An upper gastrointestinal series (UGI) showed an enteric tube with its tip in the stomach and side-port in the esophagus. There was a large amount of air in the stomach and a small volume of scattered distal bowel gas. The tip of an enteric tube was seen in the stomach (red arrow). Contrast partially filled the stomach, and the greater curvature was visualized superior to the lesser curvature in the left upper quadrant (blue arrow). The body of the stomach was herniated into the right chest through a Bochdalek hernia (blue star). There was a large amount of air in the stomach and a small volume of scattered distal bowel gas. These findings were consistent with mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus.
Beware of the Pediatric Limp: A Case of Mycoplasma Associated Acute Transverse Myelitis
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8QQ1QAn MRI with contrast, T2 sequence was performed. In Figures a-d, the MRI of the patient’s brain and spinal cord on admission shows abnormal signals in the patient’s pons (lack of symmetrical gray-white differentiation on cross-section) along with hyperintensity (sagittally shown as brightness in what should be homogenously intense spinal cord) and significant central cord edema (with swelling seen as increased width) starting from C5 and continuing to the conus medullaris around L1/L2.
A Case Report of Calciphylaxis
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8KW8VOn arrival for this visit, the patient was nontoxic appearing with stable vital signs. The physical exam was notable for deep, ulcerated, bilateral anterior leg wounds with purulent drainage and large areas of eschar (see photographs).
Case Report: Iatrogenic Bowel Perforation Following Dental Procedure
DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8CD38The patient’s abdominal CT demonstrated a metallic foreign body in the left side of the abdomen within the small bowel, without surrounding induration or abscess. Radiology questioned whether the metallic foreign object perforated the bowel. Seen in the cross-sectional CT image, there is a hyperdense linear structure transversing the small intestinal wall, given that a portion of the structure was located outside of the lumen of the bowel.
