A Mature teratoma is a tumour consisting of various tissues and is generally a benign tumor. A 3 months old male infant presented with a history of distension of the abdomen, urinary dribbling, and trouble passing the stool for one month before admission. On general examination, the abdomen was soft. Laboratory investigations were performed, and a contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CECT) abdomen revealed a retroperitoneal mass (suspected Teratoma) with bilateral hydronephrosis. The next day the patient was operated on by performing laparotomy with the removal of the tumor. The patient also had one undescended testis and umbilical hernia, which were taken care of. The patient was kept under observation and was discharged after six days. Diet was advised, and cefixime syrup was given for one week. Follow-up was recommended after one week from the date of discharge.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a standard type of surgery to treat coronary heart disease. Although restoring the circulation of blood is the main goal of CABG, an effective rehabilitation program is also crucial to the procedure's success. In this instance, elective CABG was performed on a 59-year-old male patient with severe coronary artery disease. The sufferer's postoperative care included a sophisticated intervention that included regular physical activity, dietary modifications, and psychological counselling. The rehabilitative approach included health education, sequential mobilization, a monitored exercise program, dietary counselling, guidance to quitting smoking, and stress management techniques. A framework of evaluation is necessary for the patient's progress to be based on objective measures such as functional status, quality of life, etc. The significance of a well-planned and comprehensive rehabilitation program for CABG patients' postoperative treatment is highlighted by this case study. It highlights the need of using a multidisciplinary team to provide holistic treatment that is taken into account.

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of pregnancy related maternal complications and birth outcome among women in Jeddah city Saudi Arabia. This was a cross section study where convenient samples of females were approached via online electronic platform using a questionnaire. The questionnaire assessed data regarding the participants’ socio-demographic and personal characteristics, reported maternal complications and adverse birth outcomes during pregnancy. The chi square test of significance and principal component factor analysis were used. Level of significance was 0.05. This study comprised 301 women with mean age of 32.71 years (SD: 10.285). The self-reported maternal health problems according to order of frequency were miscarriage (46.2%); caesarian section (30.6%); still birth 27.9%; Hypertension (25.1%); Gestational diabetes (18.3%); vaginal bleeding (13.3%); puerperal sepsis (10.3%); premature labor (9.3%); polyhydramnios (9%); and pre-eclampsia (3.3%). Adverse birth outcome was LBW (12.6%), and macrosomia (9.6%). Older age, smoking, and obesity of the pregnant mother, and family history of diabetes mellitus (DM) and gestational DM (GDM) were significantly associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. Further investigations are needed to assess factors associated with these high frequency levels of maternal health complications. Furthermore, these findings have preventive and clinical implications concerning pregnant women with a history of smoking habit and hypertension.

Background: Valvular or coronary artery disease associated with aortoiliac vascular disease is uncommon but very severe. We report the short-term results of 4 cases of single-stage surgery performed cardiac surgery and extra-anatomic ascendant aorta-bifemoral shunt. Methods: Retrospectively describe 4 cases of cardiac surgery combined with single-stage ascendant aorta-bifemoral artery bypass. Results: 1 case of valve replacement and 3 cases of coronary artery bypass without extracorporeal circulation accompanied by ascending aorta-bifemoral artery bypasses through the anterior peritoneal tunnel. Dacron Y-grafts with size 14/7 mm are used. Before surgery, all 4 were in Leriche’s classification stage 4 and TASC II grades D. Contrast angiography showed complete occlusion of the aorta-pelvis (just below the renal artery). There were no deaths or complications in the postoperative period. Follow-up up to 6 months and CT scan showed good patency of bypass, all the patient had no longer of pain in lower extremities and walking normally. Conclusion: Extra-anatomic ascendant aorta-bifemoral artery bypass is an effective, easy-to-implement, and safe solution in cases requiring cardiac surgery at the same time as an acute iliac aortic disease.

Objective: To use micro-computed tomography to assess the effectiveness of the TruNatomy versus the XP-endo Shaper for removing dentin from single-rooted permanent teeth with straight root canals. Materials and Methods: Ninety-eight extracted human single-root teeth were collected and divided into two equal groups: TruNatomy and XP-endo Shaper (XPS). Root canal instrumentation was done for each system. Pre-and post-instrumentation images were scanned by using Skyscan 1172 micro-CT scanner at a resolution of 13.73 µm to measure dentin removal, differences in dentin thickness, and percent change in root canal volume. The data were analyzed using SPSS. Results: The TruNatomy group and XP-endo Shaper had no significant difference regarding the amount of removed dentin. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in post-instrumentation canal volume and dentine removal between TruNatomy and XP-endo Shaper. Thus, both file systems are equally recommended for clinical use as a practice of minimally invasive endodontics.

Extrapyramidal syndrome (EPS) is the condition commonly referred to as drug induced movement disorders, due to the side effects of drugs which the patients experience from dopamine receptor antagonists. The symptoms of EPS are debilitating, which interfere with the social functioning and communication, motor tasks and activities of daily living. This ultimately is associated with poor quality of life which may result in multiple hospital visits. This case is of a 28 years old female patient who was the known case of EPS and epilepsy and was on medications of antipsychotic drug Olanzapine, dopamine receptor agonist levodopa (100mg) plus carbidopa (25mg) and anti-epileptic drug levetiracetam who presented with an abscess in left loin region for 5 days which was insidious in onset and then gradually increased in size. It was associated with pain. This case study discusses how the patient with EPS with decreased swallowing reflexes, poor nutritional status and condition requiring surgery poses challenges to the anaesthesiologists in the peri operative period.

Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, A Rare Polyposis Syndrome: A Case Report Peutz-Jeghers综合征,一种罕见的息肉病综合征:1例报告

Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS) is an uncommon familial disorder that leads to the development of gastrointestinal and extragastrointestinal hamartomatous polyps, mucocutaneous pigmentation with an increased risk of malignancy. This polyposis syndrome is associated with variable clinical course with significant mortality & morbidity and is known to cause complications like intussusception, obstruction, anemia, and bleeding. Here, we report a case of a 21 years old young female suffering from PJS to increase awareness amongst clinicians regarding this rare syndrome. She presented to us with complaints of pain in the epigastrium and left hypochondrium, constipation and malena. She had hyperpigmented mucocutaneous macules of brownish-black colour on the buccal mucosa and lips and also had numerous sessile-pedunculated polyps in stomach, duodenum, jejunum and colon. She was decided to undergo double-balloon enteroscopy and polypectomy (more than 35 polyps were removed). After an interval of 4 weeks, colonoscopic polypectomy was also done. There was a history of jejuno-jejunal intussusception for which resection and anastomosis of proximal jejunal was done in past. Hence, it is advisable for young cases having a presentation of intestinal obstruction, intussusception or malena, in presence of mucosal pigmentation and other pathognomonic signs of PJS, to screen for PJS. In case of PJS, a surgical emergency like intussusception may be present which if missed may turn into bowel ischemia which may have a grave sequel. In PJS, early intervention (polypectomy) preferably by double-balloon enteroscopy method is important to prevent morbidity and mortality caused by PJS. Follow-up of gastrointestinal polyps and regular lifelong screening for malignancy is recommended in PJS.
