Abstract:
Hydatid disease is a significant health problem in many livestock-rearing areas especially in the developing world, mainly caused by Echinococcus granulosus. The liver and lung are the most common affected sites. However, hydatid disease can occur anywhere in the body. Simultaneous involvement of two organs or sites is very unusual, mainly for organs other than the lung and liver. We thus report a very unusual combination of hepatic and left iliac fossa with hydatid disease in an adult patient.

Abstract:
Pseudo myxomaperitonnei (PMP) is a rare case with progressive dissemination of mucinous tumours and mucinous ascites in the abdomen and pelvis with an estimated incidence of 1 to 2 out of a million. Psedomyxomaperitonnei is a neoplastic disease originating from a primary mucinous tumor of appendix, mucinous cystadenoma of ovary with a distinctive pattern of the peritoneal spread. Computed tomography and histopathology are the most reliable diagnostic modalities. We present a case of pseudomyxomaperitonnei in a 55 year old male presented with pain abdomen and abdominal distension with ascites.

Abstract:
This report presents the unusual case of a 5-year-old girl with iliac fracture just after Salter innominate osteotomy for developmental dysplasia of the hip. The iliac fracture was diagnosed two days after Salter innominate osteotomy, and computed tomography (CT) revealed that it was at the extremely thin portion of the iliac wing called the “iliac fossa.” We were able to reduce the fracture by pulling the left leg distally, and after reducing the iliac bone, the ilium was fixed by Kirschner wire from the anteroinferior iliac spine and anterosuperior iliac spine. The patient was in a hip-spica

Abstract:
Rationale: Congenital factor V deficiency is classified as a rare bleeding disorder that is expressed in an autosomal recessive manner and generally occurs in 1 in a million people. This disorder is accompanied by a variety of clinical manifestations, which can easily lead to misdiagnosis. This is the first report to identify the factor V gene variant c.2439delC (p.I814Lfs*23) in exon 13. Patient concerns: A 13-year-old boy was admitted with a suspected left iliac fossa abscess. He had been previously diagnosed with and underwent management for a left iliac fossa abscess at a local hospital. T

Abstract:
Abstract The approach to evaluating patients presenting with left iliac fossa pain is set out using an example case with questions for the reader as the case evolves. This includes salient points in history taking, physical examination, relevant investigations, and a brief discussion of management. Shorter clinical vignettes follow, illustrating how other pathologies can present with the same symptom: left iliac fossa pain. Relevant guidelines and evidence are referenced. The chapter ends with a series of short answer and single best answer questions to support exam preparation.

Pathologies that should be excluded at the earliest possible opportunity are shown in bold. There are a number of gynaecological pathologies that can cause acute LIF pain. Some, such as ectopic pregnancy, mittelschmerz (mid-cycle pain), or haemorrhage into a functional ovarian cyst, can only occur in menstruating women.

Abstract:
A wide range of vascular and collagen disorders may affect the gastro-intestinal tract. Most are quite uncommon but presentations are often dramatic with intestinal bleeding or gangrene. Vascular insufficiency leading to ischaemic damage of the gut may be caused by occlusion of mesenteric vessels by either arterial thrombosis (usually with atheromatous pathology); or venous thrombosis (in thrombophilic conditions); or arterial emboli (as occurs with atrial fibrillation); or diffuse small vessel occlusion. There are four primary syndromes. (1) Acute mesenteric ischaemia—typically manifest as th

Abstract:
Constipation typically refers to stool that is passed infrequently and/or with difficulty. The most important thing to elucidate is what the patient means by ‘constipation’. Therefore, writing ‘constipation’ in the notes is inadequate—you must say something about frequency, ease of passage, and volume. Bear in mind that, in a hospital setting, one of the most common causes of constipation will not be due to any pathology per se but rather the embarrassment or discomfort of having to open one’s bowels on a bed pan within earshot of others. Equally, patients who are immobile for any reason (e.g.

Abstract Anteriorly, in the midline, the abdominal wall extends from the surface of the xiphoid process to the pubic symphysis. On each side, the wall extends from the costal margin to the inguinal ligament. For purposes of description, the anterior abdominal wall is divided into nine regions by two vertical and two horizontal planes. The right and left vertical planes pass through the mid-inguinal points—a point on each inguinal ligament midway between the anterior superior iliac spine and the pubic symphysis. The transpyloric plane lies horizontally midway between the jugular notch of the st
