Introduction Video urodynamic studies (VUDS) use fluoroscopic imaging to visualize the bladder and multichannel urodynamics assess its function. Qualitative assessment of shape is used identify abnormal features (e.g., diverticula) that correspond with pathophysiology; however, this limited in ability predict Therefore, we developed a novel quantitative approach obtained from VUDS images utiliz...

INTRODUCTION Perforations of jejunal diverticula are uncommon and repeated symptomatic perforations have been reported only twice before in the literature. This is the first case report of recurrent perforation of a jejunal diverticulum to be successfully managed non-operatively. CASE PRESENTATION We report a recurrent perforation of a jejunal diverticulum in an 87-year-old Caucasian man who ...

GASTRIC DIVERTICULA ON THE GREATER CURVATURE (Abstract): Gastric diverticula are extremely rare in the surgical pathology and is usually asymptomatic. Their discovery is in most cases incidentally, on radiographic examination or autopsy. The most frequent localization is on the posterior wall of the cardia and on the lesser curvature of the stomach. Symptomatic gastric diverticula are rare, mai...

The ciliated cysts are a rare congenital lesion developed from the primitive anterior intestine. essentially supra-diaphragmatic and located in bronchial tree, esophagus, mediastinum sublingual. When cyst is infra diaphragmatic, it’s usually liver especially medial segments (IV, V, VIII). It can be pancreas as well. It’s location gall bladder exceptional. Many times incidental finding. Cystic g...

Jejunal and ileal diverticula are rare in adults. Duodenal diverticula are five times more prevalent than jejunoileal diverticula. Most patients are asymptomatic. However, chronic symptoms including intermittent abdominal pain, flatulence, diarrhea and constipation are seen in 10%-30% of patients. Gastric cancer is the second most common cancer in South Korea and here we report a case of early ...

The role of ultrasound imaging in urogynecology is not clearly defined. Despite significant developments in visualization techniques and interpretation of images, pelvic ultrasound is still more a tool for research than for clinical practice. Structures of the lower genitourinary tract and pelvic floor can be visualized from different approaches: transperineal, introital, transvaginal, abdomina...

Bladder exstrophy is a very rare congenital disorder, in which the first stage of reconstruction is usually performed within the first 72 hours of life. The most feared form of failure of the reconstruction is postoperative dehiscence of the bladder and abdominal wall. We present an 11-year-old girl with bladder exstrophy. She underwent three iliac bone supra-acetabular osteotomies with repair ...

Neurogenic bladder is a very broad disease definition that encompasses varied disease and injury states affecting the bladder. The majority of patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction do not have concomitant intrinsic sphincteric deficiency (ISD), but when this occurs the challenges of management of urinary incontinence from neurogenic bladder are compounded. There are no guidelines for sur...

A 34-year-old man presented with abdominal pain radiating to the back. He reported several similar episodes in the preceeding years and consecutively had lost 22 pounds in weight. The patient denied alcohol abuse. Laboratory investigations suggested biliary pancreatitis (lipase 4580 U/L, bilirubin 2.4 mg/dl, γ-GT 317 U/L). Physical examination was unremarkable except for moderate epigastric ten...
