Kidney cancer treatments result in a loss of nephron mass. Nephron sparing surgery can reduce such loss through application of on- and off-clamp techniques. The on-clamp technique is widely used but resulting warm ischemia has a negative impact on long-term patient outcomes. The alternative off-clamp technique mitigates negative effects on renal function but is often considered a technique for expert hands in select cases only.

Myiasis disease was defined by Zumpt as a parasitic invasion of the tissues of humans by diptereous larvae. Myiasis agents, affect mainly the uncovered areas of the body. In addition to their medical importance as mechanical vectors of parasitic disease agents’ dipteran true flies can make myiasis in hospital environment called nosocomial myiasis which is rarely reported. In this paper we report the first case of anal nosocomial myiasis in a Tunisian patient caused by Musca domestica.

The ingestion of foreign body is quite common in the daily emergency room practice. The vast majority of patients who visit the emergency room with foreign body ingestion belong to the pediatric age group, the other group of patients have either mental impairment, dementia or psychiatric diseases.

Vascular fenestration is a rare congenital variant, in which a segment of vessels divides into two distinct channels, covered by a layer of endothelium. It is usually asymptomatic, but is sometimes accompanied by other structural abnormalities, such as intracerebral vascular aneurysms.

We present the case of a 73-year-old man with history of back and left sciatic nerve pain, who came to our hospital centre due to perform a lumbar spine MRI. The MRI scan didn’t reveal compression of the left nerve roots by hernia formations, but collaterally showed a well-defined lesion, with MRI characteristics of adipose tissue, localized in the left piriformis muscle, compatible with a lipoma that displaced the ipsilateral sciatic nerve but did not invade it.

A fifty-six year old Caucasian male was referred for a radiological evaluation from the gastroenterologist. The main complaint was a heartburn sensation while lying in the supine position that was not responding to antacids. Furthermore and only recently, the patient noted a pulsatile mass below the sternum that was not increasing in dimensions.

64 year old postmenopausal lady presented with features of virilization over last 5 years. Her Total Testosterone level was 22.2 nmol/l (0.52- 2.47 nmol/l) which is very high to be attributed to normal aging. Her past medical history was unremarkable except adequately controlled diabetes mellitus. Her DHEAS level was normal and did not have other hormonal abnormalities. Her transvaginal ultrasound scan showed a left ovarian tumor of 3 X 3 cm in size. She underwent a CECT abdomen and pelvis which also confirmed the left ovarian tumor without any malignant features or metastasis.

A malignant mesothelioma arises from the serosal surface of the pleural, peritoneal, or pericardial cavity. Although rare, with development of diagnostic techniques, the frequency of this tumor has been increasing. Malignant mesothelioma is classified into three types; epithelioid, sarcomatoid, and biphasic. It is especially important to differentiate epithelioid type from reactive mesothelial cells and another type of carcinoma, with a definitive diagnosis usually obtained based on examination of tissue biopsy or surgical resection specimens.

The clinical presentation could be variable and it exhibits a considerable amount of overlap with other airway disorders. The etiology of bronchiectasis is heterogenous and constitutes of inherited and acquired causes pertaining to airway obstruction or defects in host immunity.
