  • Incarceration of sessile uterine fibroids in an incisional hernia in a postmenopausal woman: a case report
    Gynecological Surgery, 2016
    Co-Authors: Akintunde O. Fehintola, Olusayo I. Amole, Ayotunde O. Ogunlaja, Olufemi T. Awotunde, Olurotimi I. Aaron, B. Bakare, Adewumi O. Durodola, Gbemi H. Ano-edward
    Abstract:

    Incarceration of sessile fibroids in an incisional hernia is uncommon and can cause pain and discomfort. Very few cases have been reported in the literature but none in our region in women in the postmenopausal period. We present an uncommon case of a 57-year-old primipara with a previous history of caesarean section and a laparotomy on account of adhesive intestinal obstruction. She presented with lower Abdominal Swelling and Abdominal pain since 7 years. She had surgical removal of the mass and total Abdominal hysterectomy with mesh repair of the incisional hernia. Histology of the resected hernia content revealed leiomyoma. Abdominal wall fibroid is a good differential diagnosis to be considered in any woman with an anterior Abdominal mass and previous uterine surgery, including caesarean section.

  • mesenteric lymphangioma in adult a case series with a review of the literature
    Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 2009
    Co-Authors: Imtiaz Wani
    Abstract:

    Mesenteric lymphangioma is a rare benign tumor with nonspecific clinical features. A case series of three adult patients who had mesenteric lymphangioma is reported along with a review of literature. Two patients presented with painless Abdominal Swelling who were being managed as a case of Abdominal tuberculosis and a third one had features of intestinal obstruction. In our cases, preoperative diagnosis of mesenteric lymphangima was not suspected and all the patients had laparotomy. Peroperative findings revealed mesenteric masses, which were simulating cavitatory form of mesenteric node tuberculosis. It is stressed that mimicking of mesenteric lymphangioma with a cavitatory form of tuberculosis of mesenteric nodes in areas of high prevalence may lead to its misdiagnosis. Histopathology confirmed diagnosis of mesenteric lymphangioma in each case. Although rare and difficult to diagnose preoperatively, surgical resection is to be considered gold standard treatment for mesenteric lymphangioma.

  • an unusual cause of dyspnoea complicating right upper Abdominal Swelling
    World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006
    Co-Authors: Sanjay Kumar Mandal, Partha Pratim Chakraborty, Rana Bhattacharjee, Subhasis Roy Chowdhury, Shounak Majumdar
    Abstract:

    A middle aged, non-addict male presented with right upper Abdominal pain and Swelling with respiratory distress. Examination revealed central cyanosis, bipedal pitting edema with prominent epigastric and back veins. Liver was enlarged, tender, spanned 20 cm without any splenomegaly or ascites. Other systems were clinically normal. Laboratory investigations showed polymorphonuclear leucocytosis with slightly deranged liver function. Abdominal ultrasonography showed an abscess in the right lobe of the liver with compressed inferior vena cava (IVC), middle and left hepatic veins. Arterial blood gas (ABG) documented hypoxia with orthodeoxia and air-contrast echocardiography was suggestive of an intrapulmonary shunt. A diagnosis of hepato-pulmonary syndrome (HPS) was made with near normal liver function secondary to amebic liver abscess. It reversed completely following successful treatment of the liver abscess.
