Bowel intussusception is rare in adults and usually driven by an underlying pathological process affecting the bowel. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) most common type of kidney cancer its disease course, depending on initial histology stage, can metastasize to adrenal glands, lungs, bones, brains contralateral that be challenging follow. We present case a patient with history radical left nephrectom...

We report the unusual case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with multiple episodes of small bowel obstruction. Initial exploratory lap-roscopy did not reveal an etiology of the obstruction. Subsequent upper endoscopy identified a non-obstructing gastric trichobezoar which could not be removed endoscopically but was not thought to be responsible for the small bowel obstruction given its loca...

Internal hernia represents only a small fraction of the patients with intestinal obstruction, however 50% of paraduodenal hernia present as an acute intestinal obstruction. The case is a 28-year old man with presentation of complete bowel obstruction. Diagnosis confirmed through physical examination and abdominal radiography. Laparatomy was performed during which total herniation of small intes...

Splenosis is a rare occurrence that is defined as autotransplantation of splenic tissue usually after splenic rupture due to trauma and subsequent splenectomy. Although splenosis most commonly occurs in the abdomen, the authors report a rare case of thoracic splenosis after remote thoracoabdominal trauma. A 62-year-old woman was found to have lower-lobe, pleural-based nodular lesions in juxtapo...

Splenosis refers to heterotopic autotransplantation and implantation of splenic tissue following splenic trauma or surgery. Splenosis in gastric fundus is rare and difficult to diagnose, since splenosis has similar manifestation with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) under routine endoscopy examination. In this report, we present two quite rare case of splenosis. Both of their pre-operative...

•Splenosis can mimic carcinomatosis upon many imaging modalities.•History of splenectomy must be considered when evaluating carcinomatosis.•Scintigraphy is the preferred for confirming the presence of splenosis.

Inflammatory bowel disease includes both Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. Pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease differs from adult inflammatory bowel disease in disease type, location, progression, and sex preponderance, and 20% to 30% of inflammatory bowel disease is diagnosed in childhood. Children are more likely than adults to present with extraintestinal manifestations of inflamm...

Introduction: Rotation of the small bowel around its mesenteric vascular pedicle is termed midgut volvulus. This abnormality frequently causes obstruction and, most importantly, compromises the intestinal blood flow, threatening bowel viability. Midgut volvulus can be primary without findings of any associated underlying cause, or secondary to other congenital or acquired conditions. Primary mi...
