Twin pregnancy complicated with bowel strangulation

Twin pregnancy complicated by an adnexal mass

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours are mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract.1 This case study reports the incidental finding of a left sided adnexal mass in a woman with twin pregnancy. The presence of any mass during pregnancy raises issues for patient management, the effect on the developing fetus and mode of delivery.

Small bowel ischemia caused by strangulation in complicated small bowel obstruction. CT findings in 20 cases with histopathological correlation.

PURPOSE To analyze the CT findings in 20 cases of complicated small bowel obstruction with surgically and histopathologically proven small bowel ischemia, caused by extrinsic venous outflow obstruction of the affected bowel loops and to discuss the question, if bowel wall thickening, abnormal bowel wall enhancement, ascites and mesenteric stranding correlate with the severity of bowel wall dama...

Left Paraduodenal Hernia with Bowel Strangulation

Transmesosigmoid hernia with small bowel strangulation

Introduction: Internal herniation of the small bowel is difficult to diagnose before surgery. Delayed laparotomy is related to high morbidity and mortality. We present a rare case of a transmesosigmoid hernia to demonstrate the importance of high suspicion and early laparotomy. Case Report: A 44­year­old female patient had severe abdominal pain of acute onset. A CT scan at six hours after onset...

Complicated Jejunal Diverticulosis: Small Bowel Volvulus with Obstruction

he incidence of the diverticulum of the small bowel varies from 0.2-1.3% in autopsy studies to 2.3% when assessed on enteroclysis. It occurs mostly in patients in the 6th decade of their life. Of all the small bowel diverticuli, jejunal diverticulum is the most common type. This rare entity is usually asymptomatic. However, they may cause chronic non-specific symptoms for a long period of time ...
