Exposure keratopathy can lead to keratitis, ulceration, and cornea scarring. Lagophthalmos is the inability to close the eyelid completely and this leads to a portion of the eye remaining open and subject to cornea damage. Here, we describe the 72-year-old man with a case of exposure keratopathy secondary to facial nerve palsy with complications of cornea ulceration and scarring that cause permanent vision loss. We discuss difficult challenges during management from medical to surgical management.","PeriodicalId":13365,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Case Reports","volume":"398 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139807772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They often present as painless neck swellings that move in response to tongue protrusion and during deglutition. We describe a case of thyroglossal duct cyst that was atypical in that the cyst was distant from the midline, it did not move in response to tongue protrusion, and the swelling was significant that resembled a colloid goiter. A 36-year-old male presented to the surgical outpatient department with a complaint of painless swelling in the neck for the past year. A 6.5×4.5 cm2 swelling was observed in the anterolateral aspect of the right side of the neck extending to the thyroid notch. Neck ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology showed features suggestive of a thyroglossal duct cyst. The patient was prepared for the Sistrunk procedure for thyroglossal duct cyst excision. The patient was on regular follow-up postoperatively for 6 months, and no evidence of any recurrence was seen.","PeriodicalId":13365,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Case Reports","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139867793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Jejunal GISTs are the rarest subtype. We present a middle-aged gentleman, who presented with pain in the right lower abdomen. On abdominal examination, a lump was palpable in the right iliac fossa (RIF). Contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen revealed an extraluminal soft-tissue mass in the ileum. Computed Tomography-guided core needle biopsy from the lump was consistent with GIST, which was confirmed on immunohistochemistry. Mutation analysis revealed exon 11 mutations. Due to the proximity of GIST to the rectum and urinary bladder, the patient was started on imatinib therapy. After 3 months of treatment, imatinib therapy had to be stopped due to skin reactions. Restaging was done with a positron-emission tomography scan, which demonstrated a soft-tissue mass likely arising from the ileocecal region in the RIF abutting the ascending colon without any significant decrease in size. On exploration, a well-circumscribed mobile extraluminal lobulated mass was seen arising from the antimesenteric border of the jejunum. Histopathologic examination showed GIST, which was confirmed on immunohistochemistry. We report this case to emphasize keeping small bowel GIST as an unusual differential diagnosis of a RIF lump. Furthermore, not all patients can tolerate imatinib treatment, hence exon mutation study is important, and surgery should be considered if it is deemed resectable.","PeriodicalId":13365,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Case Reports","volume":"429 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139807692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such an example is a woman residing in an urban slum in the Khordha district of Odisha, India. She has never used any modern methods of contraception. Neither the health workers in that area could fulfill her unmet need for family planning. The helpless mother missed all the antenatal checkups as she did not have anyone to accompany her to the hospital. Three of her children were delivered at home and none of them were immunized to date. She has become a victim of domestic violence by her husband, who is addicted to alcohol. She has done two medical terminations of pregnancy due to non-usage of any contraception. Neither she is able to provide herself nor her children sufficient food every day, as she is not able to go to work in her post-partum period. Her alcoholic husband is not able to earn regularly and there is no other family member to support her. There is no Accredited Social Health Activist appointed for that area whom she can rely on. We need to look at what is the cause of such a scenario – Is it poverty, lack of awareness, lack of education, or our health system has failed to achieve universal health coverage.","PeriodicalId":13365,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Case Reports","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139868318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
