Spinal cord stimulator medullary compression-a very rare SCS complication and surgical treatment.

Project description:IntroductionThe risk of spinal cord damage after Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) implant is a very rare event. In our case report, the patient was affected by a progressively worsening spinal stenosis due to SCS compression.Case reportThe authors describe a progressive paraparesis in a 58-year-old woman with a long history of back pain and multiple spine surgeries. Computed tomography (CT) outlined vertebral canal stenosis corresponding to an electrode array implanted in T9. A posterior T8-T10 spinal cord decompression with explanation of the SCS device was performed and a partial neurological improvement was observed immediately postoperative.DiscussionSpinal cord stimulation has been used since 1967 for the treatment of refractory chronic pain, particularly failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Still, the mechanism underlying its function is not completely clear. Moreover, complications are mainly related to implant dysfunction and the risk of direct and indirect spinal cord compression is described as exceptional in the literature. Our aim is to describe the case SCS device spinal cord direct compression and its surgical treatment.

Symptomatic inguinal bladder hernia causes post-renal acute kidney injury: A rare case report.

Project description:IntroductionInguinal bladder hernia (IBH) is a rare condition representing less than 5% of all inguinal hernias. Most cases occur in elderly overweight men. Patients may present with variable symptoms such as urinary symptoms, inguinal swelling, or pain; however, most of them are asymptomatic and only less than 7% are diagnosed pre-operatively. Different radiological studies can be used if IBH suspected preoperatively including ultrasound, computed tomography scan; however, cystography is the most sensitive test for diagnosis of IBH. Open reduction and hernia repair are the standard treatment of IBH.Case presentationWe report a rare case of an-83-year-old male who presented with left inguinal pain associated with lower urinary tract symptoms including dysuria, nocturia, post-voidal dribbling, and urinary frequency. Laboratory studies showed acute kidney injury (AKI), and computed tomography (CT) of abdomen and pelvis without contrast CT revealed a herniation of 80% of the bladder through the left inguinal canal into the left scrotal sac, with moderate bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureter, though no obstructing calculi are seen. Pre-operative diagnosis of incarcerated inguinal bladder hernia (IBH) was made, and a timely surgical intervention preceded by bladder catheterization led to a significant improvement of AKI and an excellent outcome without post-operative complications.Discussion and conclusionIBH is uncommon condition that can present with non-specific urinary symptoms; therefore, high index of suspicion is mandated for diagnosis especially in patients with risk factors. Pre-operative radiological evaluation to avoid iatrogenic bladder injury with subsequent surgical repair is the standard management for IBH as we accomplished in our case.

Does the use of hernia mesh in surgical inguinal hernia repairs cause male infertility? A systematic review and descriptive analysis.

Project description:OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study was to systematically review the available clinical trials examining male infertility after inguinal hernias were repaired using mesh procedures.METHODSThe Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Chinese Biomedical Medicine Database were investigated. The Jada score was used to evaluate the quality of the studies, "Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine-Levels of Evidence" was used to assess the level of the trials, and descriptive analysis was used to evaluate the studies.RESULTSTwenty nine related trials with a total of 36,552 patients were investigated, including seven randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 616 patients and 10 clinical trials (1230 patients) with mesh or non-mesh repairs. The Jada score showed that there were six high quality RCTs and one low quality RCT. Levels of evidence determined from the Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine further demonstrated that those six high quality RCTs also had high levels of evidence. It was found that serum testosterone, LH, and FSH levels declined in the laparoscopic group compared to the open group; however, the testicular volume only slightly increased without statistical significance. Testicular and sexual functions remained unchanged after both laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair (TAPP) and totally extra-peritoneal repair (TEP). We also compared the different meshes used post-surgeries. VyproII/Timesh lightweight mesh had a diminished effect on sperm motility compared to Marlex heavyweight mesh after a one-year follow-up, but there was no effect after 3 years. Additionally, various open hernia repair procedures (Lichtenstein, mesh plug method, posterior pre-peritoneal mesh repair, and anterior tension-free repair) did not cause infertility.CONCLUSIONSThis systematic review suggests that hernia repair with mesh either in an open or a laparoscopic procedure has no significant effect on male fertility.

Variants in GATA4 are a rare cause of familial and sporadic congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

Project description:Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by incomplete formation of the diaphragm occurring as either an isolated defect or in association with other anomalies. Genetic factors including aneuploidies and copy number variants are important in the pathogenesis of many cases of CDH, but few single genes have been definitively implicated in human CDH. In this study, we used whole exome sequencing (WES) to identify a paternally inherited novel missense GATA4 variant (c.754C>T; p.R252W) in a familial case of CDH with incomplete penetrance. Phenotypic characterization of the family included magnetic resonance imaging of the chest and abdomen demonstrating asymptomatic defects in the diaphragm in the two "unaffected" missense variant carriers. Screening 96 additional CDH patients identified a de novo heterozygous GATA4 variant (c.848G>A; p.R283H) in a non-isolated CDH patient. In summary, GATA4 is implicated in both familial and sporadic CDH, and our data suggests that WES may be a powerful tool to discover rare variants for CDH.

Primary Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma of the Urinary Bladder: Update on a Rare Disease and Potential Diagnostic Pitfalls.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) represents the most frequent type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Globally, DLBCL is an aggressive disease, requiring an accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment. The diagnosis is often made on biopsy samples of a nodal mass, however, approximately 40% of DLBCL cases arise at extranodal sites. The most common extranodal site is the gastrointestinal tract, however any extranodal area may be primarily involved. Primary urinary bladder lymphoma represents only 0.2% of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas, whereas secondary involvement of the urinary bladder by a systemic lymphoma is a more common event. Despite being rare, DLBCL is considered to represent the predominant primary urinary bladder lymphoma. The majority of cases reported in the bladder belong to the DLBCL, NOS group, and there are only rare cases of EBV-positive DLBCL, NOS. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on DLBCL primarily occurring in the urinary bladder, with the aim of increasing clinician and pathologist awareness on this aggressive lymphoma rarely arising in the urinary bladder. Additionally, we focus on those entities which should be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis, highlighting potential diagnostic pitfalls.

Tricuspid stenosis: A rare and potential complication of ventricular septal occluder device.

Project description:Asymmetrical septal occluder device (ASOD) has made percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defect an easy and effective management option. Although there are reports of aortic and tricuspid valvular regurgitation after deployment of ASOD, only few cases of tricuspid stenosis (TS) has been reported so far in the literature. We report a case of malaligned ASOD that occurred after successful device closure resulting in TS along with mild tricuspid and aortic regurgitation requiring surgical retrieval. Transesophageal echocardiography played crucial role in detecting the cause of tricuspid valve dysfunction besides providing continuous monitoring during the procedure. We intend to emphasize the need of echocardiographic evaluation of the tricuspid valvular apparatus and aortic valve during and after the device deployment even after the successful device closure to prevent this rare complication.

Surgical clip migration following laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A rare cause of acute cholangitis.

Project description:Clip migration following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is a rare and late complication of LC. The first case of surgical clip migration after LC was reported in 1992, and since then less than 100 cases have been reported in the literature. We report the case of cholangitis secondary to a surgical clip migration in an 83 years old male patient, 8 years after LC. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen (CT) showed intra and extrahepatic ducts dilatation secondary to a hyperdense object located in the distal common bile duct (CBD). It was removed successfully from the CBD by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography after sphincterotomy. At the last follow-up of one year after her admission, the patient is symptom-free with normal liver enzyme and abdominal CT. Surgical clip migration into CBD, should be included in the differential diagnosis while treating patients with the past surgical history of LC. Early diagnosis and treatment of this complication can avoid serious complications.

A rare case of multiregional spinal stenosis: clinical description, surgical complication, and management concept review.

Project description:Study Design Case report and literature review. Objective Multiregional spinal stenosis (MRSS) has not been described in the English literature, although a few studies report the concept of tandem spinal stenosis. Due to the concurrent spinal stenosis occurring in three separate regions of the spine, clinical presentation of MRSS may be less distinct, and its surgical treatment priorities and challenges differ from single-region spinal stenosis. The purpose of this article is to describe a new concept and a rare case of MRSS as separated segments of spinal stenosis in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. Methods A retrospective case description of MRSS and surgical strategies used in managing such extensive multiregional stenosis and its potential complications. Results A novel surgical strategy using a combination of laminectomies with fusion and laminoplasty without fusion to treat this patient with such extensive cervical to thoracic myelopathic cord compression is described. Initial good recovery after cervical cord decompression was followed by a delayed recurrence of symptoms from thoracic cord compression. The subsequent thoracic surgical decompression, its complications and management, and patient recovery are discussed with a literature review highlighting the possible mechanisms for postoperative loss of neurologic function after thoracic decompression. Conclusion MRSS is a rare cause of extensive compression of multiple regions of the spinal cord. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this report is the first to use the term multiregional spinal stenosis to describe this new emergent clinical entity, surgical management strategies, and potential complications.
