Major road trauma in the prone position, when the victim cannot be released or retrieved due to intense pain, is a rare event. We present a case of a young patient who was incarcerated with his right lower limb in the prone position in a bulldozer. The impossibility of being able to extract him in a short time and the very intense pain, not responsive to high doses of analgesics, led us to perform an induction and intubation in the prone position with video laryngoscope. The success of the maneuver allowed us to release the patient in a short time with excellent outcome in terms of recovery of the lower limb

Purpose: We raised the question whether the neurobiological and psychological impact of war stress could be observed in Ukrainian refugees during an ongoing war. Ukrainian refugee women (UG, n=43) from the war-torn regions were investigated and were compared to Czech women control group without stress (CG, n=21). Men were not allowed to leave Ukraine due to the war conditions. Method: Psychological testing was performed using tests available in Ukrainian language: Posttraumatic stress disorder Check List; Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale; The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; Test of Intellectual Potential and Digit Span - WAIS III. Magnetic Resonance Imaging included voxel-based morphometry, functional MR, seed-based connectivity. Finding: UG scored significantly higher than CG in stress (p<0.001), depression (p=0.019) and anxiety (p=0.001) and lower than CG in an abstract reasoning task (p<0.030). The groups did not differ significantly in memory and intellectual tasks. MRI showed an enlargement of the posterior and central parts of the thalamus that were related to the frontal orbital gyrus and insula indicating a connectivity with limbic system regions. Conclusion: The data show the impact of acute and ongoing war-related stress on psychological features as well as on the thalamus and connectivity of stress-related cortical areas. Acute and ongoing war stress had a significant neurobiological impact on refugees from war-torn Ukraine.

The increasing use of lung ultrasound has consistently shown its high sensitivity compared to stethoscopes and radiographs for acute inflammatory and cardiovascular pathologies. It saves time, is relatively cost-effective, bedside, and provides information on adjacent systems to the respiratory system while avoiding radiation exposure [1-6]. Lung ultrasound holds particular value not only in detecting abnormal lung conditions but often plays a decisive role in diagnosis or further diagnostic steps. Lesions near the thoracic wall can be identified using lung ultrasound, which provides good imaging for diagnosing lung diseases. Ultrasound examination of the liver may reveal concurrent liver involvement in up to 15% of individuals with lung echinococcus cyst [7,8]. In rare cases, the presence of fluid in the thoracic cavity is mistakenly identified through lung ultrasound as simple parapneumonic pleural effusion [9]. In this study, we aim to demonstrate the importance of lung ultrasound in resolving diagnostic dilemmas: plankton sign, hailstorm, snowstorm, or snowball [10-13] in a case of lung echinococcus cyst. The video image of the presentation of lung echinococcus cyst is nearly unique in our knowledge.
