Rationale: Gastrointestinal solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is rare, just occupies about 5% of all EMPs. The most common site is small intestine followed by stomach. The colorectal incidence is much rare. Patient concerns: A 63-year-old female had an episodic pain around the umbilicus for about one week. The hyperemia and edema in the ileocecal mucosa were found in colonoscopy, and t...

Intussusception is a rare cause of bowel obstruction in adults. Clinical manifestations are not specific, making the preoperative diagnosis difficult to establish. We report a case of acute small-bowel obstruction due to ileocolic intussusception. An emergency explorative laparoscopy was performed and revealed a mass in the right colon proximal to the ileocecal valve. Conversion to open laparot...

On internal autopsy examination abdominal dissection cream-brown fluid in abdomen was observed. In the ileum, 45 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve, 1 cm in diameter perforation area was detected, ongoing dissection revealed diverticular, pouch...

Cutaneous catheterizable channels allow for continent bladder emptying when an alternate route is desired. The goals of channel creation in the neurogenic bladder population are successful urine elimination, renal preservation, continence and lastly cosmesis. In addition to a particular surgeon's comfort and experience with a given procedure, individual patient factors such as medical comorbidi...

A case report of recurrent appendicitis, 40 years after appendectomy is presented. In the present case, we failed to diagnose stump appendicitis preoperatively due to the existence of the lipohyperplasia of the ileocecal valve which showed features of ileocolic intussusception causing right lower abdominal pain and nausea. Inflammation of the appendiceal stump after appendectomy is a rare compl...

Intussusception is a relatively common cause of intestinal obstruction in children but a rare, and uncommon clinical entity in adults accounting for 1%. Lipoma accounts for 4% of all benign tumors of the gut. Most of these are seen in the large intestine, usually submucosal and around ileocecal valve. These are often asymptomatic. Though these lesions are benign, it continues to present difficu...
