Uterine rupture often occurs in the third trimester of pregnancy or during labor. Its occurrence in early pregnancy and in the absence of any predisposing factors is very rare. Untimely diagnosis and a low index of suspicion could be life-threatening. Here we report the case of a 29-year-old woman with a history of two previous cesarean sections. An ultrasound report revealed a dead fetus in th...

left ventricular free wall rupture is responsible for up to 10% of in-hospital deaths following myocardial infarction. it is mainly associated with posterolateral myocardial infarction, and its antemortem diagnosis is rarely made. one of the medical complications of myocardial infarction is the rupture of the free wall, which occurs more frequently in the anterolateral wall in hypertensives, wo...

introduction sialolithiasis is the most common disease of salivary glands. sialography is particularly important for the assessment of the outflow tract and in diagnosing obstructive salivary gland lesions including calculi. case presentation we report on a 38-year-old female with sialolithiasis whom had wharton’s duct perforation, complicating the sialography. she was treated conservatively wi...

various complications of hydatid cyst have been recognized to date. we have encountered one such complication-rupture of hydatid cyst to the duodenum­ leading to upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a 40 year old male, who referred with severe right upper quadrant (ruq) pain and gastrointestinal bleeding of a few hours' duration. laparotomy revealed a cyst (7 x 15 cm) in the left lobe of the...

Adrenal gland pseudocysts are not common conditions, and most of them are nonfunctional and asymptomatic. However, large pseudocysts may causes abdominal discomfort and have compressive effects on adjacent organs. They may rupture spontaneously or after trauma, and lead to retroperitoneal hemorrhage and surgical emergency. Herein, we report a case of 21-year-old female who presented with acute ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture can occur in different ways, such as closed rupture into the retroperitoneum, open rupture into the peritoneal cavity, rupture into surrounding hollow structures, and chronic contained or sealed rupture. Here, we report an unusual case of spontaneous rupture of AAA into a renal cyst that presented with hematuria, abdominal pain and shock, and which was di...

We employ N-body, smoothed particle hydrodynamical simulations, including detailed treatment of chemical enrichment, to follow a gas-rich merger which results in a galaxy with disk morphology. We trace the kinematic, structural, and chemical properties of stars formed before, during, and after the merger. We show that such a merger produces two exponential disk components, with the older, hotte...

background : these days, the antibiotic resistance of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates to imipenem has significantly increased. therefore the study of resistance to imipenem in this organism to imipenem in determining the appropriate treatment is crucial and necessary. the goal of this study is to compare three phenotypic methods of e-test, disk diffusion and micro broth dilution in the study of...

cardiac rupture, particularly rupture of the left ventricular wall, has a very high mortality rate. in this occasion, even if injured patients being alive when carried to the hospital, many of them will die due to following possible reasons: severe bleeding, cardiac tamponade, wasting time for routine and usual diagnostic procedures or transferring the injured to other hospital equipped for car...
