A urethral foreign body is usually found as a part of sexual misadventure mostly in a young male. The literature has described items like a fork, battery, wire and other things in the urethra which almost always required a surgical procedure for its removal. Here we present the case of self-insertion of a hairpin in the male urethra with the open pointed end of hairpin facing distally. The hairpin despite being “stuck” inside the urethra due to its sharp end embedded in urethral mucosa was successfully removed with simple manipulation techniques with no complication in follow-up. This case highlights the point that when faced with the situation of an uncommon object in the urethra, the treatment has to be individualized according to the type of object, age and sex of the patient and sometimes common unorthodox technique can save the patient from operative procedure.

Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors. The most common site is the adrenals cervical region. Cervical paragangliomasare divided into carotid body and vagus types. Here, we report the case of a non-functional cervical paraganglioma in a 78-yearoldmale came with complaints of swelling in the left side of the neck for 2 years. On imaging, guided core needle biopsy showedeosinophilic cells with vacuolated nuclei and some inclusion bodies which suggested a possible clear cell tumor, neuroendocrinetumor or a paraganglioma. Complete surgical excision was done under general anesthesia, postoperative histopathology andimmunohistochemistry markers (S100, Synaptophysin, and Ki67) suggested of paraganglioma.

Amyloidosis is a group of disorders characterized by extracellular deposition of a proteinaceous homogenous eosinophilic hyaline substance known as amyloid. Congo red staining is a specific stain for amyloid which shows an apple-green birefringence on polarized microscopy. Amyloid deposition can be systemic or localized. Primary amyloidosis (also known as AL amyloidosis) is the most common form of amyloidosis characterized by generalized deposition of excess immunoglobulin light chains. It is associated with an underlying plasma cell dyscrasia and has the maximum gastrointestinal (GI) involvement. Secondary amyloidosis is characterized by deposition of acute-phase reactant - serum amyloid A protein (also known as AA amyloidosis) and it is associated with infectious, inflammatory, or less commonly, neoplastic disorders. Renal dysfunction is the most common symptom of AA amyloidosis at diagnosis. Amyloidosis presenting as a localized mass is known as amyloidoma. Amyloidoma of the GI system is a rare finding in the absence of any systemic involvement. We report a rare case of localized multifocal polypoid amyloidoma in the lower GI tract, which masquerades as malignancy.

Psychotic features like delusions, hallucinations, disorganized behavior, disorganized speech and negative symptoms like anhedonia,restricted affect can also appear in secondary medical conditions causing psychosis. Here, we present the case of psychotic symptomsin correlation with a medical condition of subclinical hypothyroidism in a 28-years-old female having an illness for 5 years. Thispatient presented with psychotic symptoms and did not show any symptomatic improvement with antipsychotics in the past. Wereached to clinical suspicion of anti-thyroid psychosis or subclinical hypothyroidism with psychosis on the basis of a slight elevationin thyroid stimulating hormone levels and high titers of anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies. Levothyroxine was augmented in hertreatment regime and she started showing improvement in her symptoms.Levothyroxine, Subclinical hypothyroidism, Thyroid peroxidase antibody.

Venous anomalies are the most common congenital vascular anomalies. The rarest of these is complete deep venous agenesis. Here, we report a case of a 15-year-old male patient evaluated on color Doppler and computed tomographic venogram with complete right iliofemoral deep venous agenesis with the inferior vena cava continuing as the left common iliac vein and the right popliteal vein draining into superficial anomalous veins of the thigh. These superficial veins were seen to drain through a superficial suprapubic arcuate connector vein into the dilated left common femoral vein. Uniquely in our case, there was no persistent embryonic sciatic vein and no demonstrable reflux into the superficial connector vein, suggesting an uncommon embryological mechanism underlying its pathogenesis. Surgical resection of the dilated superficial veins is absolutely contraindicated in cases of deep venous agenesis and hence accurate diagnosis by the radiologist is absolutely essential in such cases.

Constipation in children is progressively increasing day by day because of changing lifestyle and dietary intake. Sometimes, functionalconstipation cases are misdiagnosed as functional abdominal pain because of inappropriate history and examination. We present an8-years-old boy with a history of intermittent moderate to severe abdominal pain for 2 months. Basic blood investigations andultrasound of the abdomen were normal, surprisingly, X-ray of the abdomen revealed the diagnosis. Simple X-ray erect abdomen isvery useful in a special situation for the diagnosis of functional constipation.

Prostatic utricle is a Mullerian duct remnant with an incidence of 1 %. Excision of utricle is challenging because of the close proximity of seminal vesicle, ejaculatory ducts, bladder, rectum, ureter, and nerve plexus. Here, we report the case of a 23-year-old male presented with complaints of painful terminal hematuria associated with clots along with retrograde ejaculation. The abdominal and local examination was within normal limits. MRI pelvis showed a large non-communicating cystic structure present in the pelvic cavity, compressing posterior wall of the urinary bladder, seminal vesicle, anterior wall of the rectum and also causing left hydroureteronephrosis. After evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with giant prostatic utricle cyst. Laparoscopic excision of prostatic utricle cyst was done successfully. Postoperative period was uneventful and the patient was discharged in satisfactory condition. Laparoscopic excision of prostatic utricle cyst is technically challenging but with acceptable complications and good surgical results.

Penile Mondor’s disease (PMD) is a rare condition characterized by thrombosis of superficial dorsal vein of the penis. PMD is usuallycaused due to vigorous sex or repeated trauma to the penis leading to painful swelling of the penis. Most of the patients improvegradually on conservative treatment. Very rarely cord like lesion persists and causes painful erection and intercourse, meriting surgicalmanagement. Here, we report the case of a traumatic Thrombophlebitis of Superficial Dorsal Vein of Penis managed surgically alongwith a brief explanation of the surgical technique. Color Doppler was helpful in delineating the whole extent of thrombus in thevein. Excision of the whole length of the thrombosed vein was done. Abstinence from sex was advised for six weeks and the patientimproved symptomatically.

A genital fistula is an abnormal communication between uterus with either urinary tract or gastrointestinal tract. Although genitourinaryfistula is a common entity, rectovaginal or even uterorectal fistula is relatively uncommon. The etiology of fistula is usually due toan obstetric cause in a developing country, whereas, it is gynecological in the developing country. Whether etiology is obstetricalor gynecological, this develops following days of the procedure. Here, we present the case of a 17-year-old girl, who underwentvaginoplasty for cervical atresia and develop uterorectal fistula one and a half year following the first surgery. She was finallymanaged with hysterectomy.
