Obesity is a public health problem that directly impacts the economy. In this case study, the authors are using data from a survey of a late postoperative bariatric surgery patient. Male patient, 23 years old, obese since childhood, 186 kg [body mass index (BMI) 61], sedentary, without other comorbidities. He denies smoking. On 10/30/2019, he underwent Y gastroplasty (Gastric Bypass) with a reduction of approximately 90% of the stomach. On 09/13/2021, he started an intervention protocol through whole-body vibration (WBV). Cardiovascular risk, heart rate variability, functionality, and quality of life were evaluated in the acute phase and in the chronic phase. The training was conducted through 10 interventions with exercises on the vibrating platform. Functionality was assessed through the tests: “Timed up and Go,” Sit/Stand, 6-minute Walk Test, and handgrip strength. A 7.1% gain in functional capacity was observed, with a 37.5% reduction in perceived exertion. In addition, there was a 39% gain in handgrip strength and a reduction in the execution time in the functional capacity tests. Heart rate variability after interventions showed that WBV can reduce cardiovascular risk. In conclusion, the exercise program allowed the reduction of body weight and body mass index and impacted the alteration of body composition and functionality, resulting in a reduction in cardiovascular risk.\u0000","PeriodicalId":13833,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Case Reports and Images","volume":"107 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80775999","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}

Close examination of a patient suspected with right upper lobe lung cancer revealed partial anomalous pulmonary venous return in the same lobe. Generally, if partial anomalous pulmonary venous return is present in the lung lobe to be resected, surgery can be performed as planned. However, we performed 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio for safer anesthesia and surgery. His pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio was 1.04, which seemed safe for general anesthesia and surgery. Right upper lobectomy was performed, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 7 without any circulatory complications.\u0000\u0000 Conclusion: We found that 4D flow MRI contributed to a safe perioperative management and it must be meaningful for partial anomalous pulmonary venous return in the other lobe.\u0000","PeriodicalId":13833,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Case Reports and Images","volume":"195 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79817571","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}

Two weeks prior to her present complaints, the PEG tube had been changed, following which she developed erosive dermatitis around the PEG tube. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and gastroendoscopy revealed that the PEG tube had gone through the anterior wall to the posterior wall of the stomach, like a “bridge,” and skewered out of the stomach. A new PEG tube was positioned in the stomach and the tract to the jejunum was treated conservatively.\u0000\u0000 Conclusion: Although complications associated with replacement of the PEG tube are rare, replacement should be performed under gastroendoscopy to avoid these complications.\u0000","PeriodicalId":13833,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Case Reports and Images","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86718592","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}

This injury is rare and is characterized by a combination of a fracture of the ipsilateral fibula and an injury to the medial structures of the ankle, and there may also be a rupture of the syndesmosis, tibiofibular and deltoid ligament, followed by rupture of the anteroinferior tibiofibular ligament and rupture of the interosseous ligament and interosseous membrane.\u0000\u0000 Case Report: A 70-year-old female patient reported pain in the right lower limb. Clinical examination, after excluding possible fractures associated with age group, revealed hematoma on the ankle, edema on the topography of the right lateral malleolus and on the lateral aspect of the right knee. Radiographs revealed lateral subluxation of the right ankle, increased medial free space associated with fracture of the medial malleolus, fracture of the posterior malleolus, and proximal fracture of the ipsilateral fibula. The patient was admitted for urgent orthopedic surgery. Lateral access distal to the fibula was used in the distal fibulotibial joint, anatomical reduction of the ankle with reduction forceps and placement of a 3.5 mm third-barrel plate and two 3.5 mm cortical screws with sizes of 50 and 45 mm under fluoroscopy.\u0000\u0000 Conclusion: A Maisonneuve fracture is an orthopedic emergency that needs to be identified quickly because it usually requires surgery. Surgery must be well planned and requires an adequate postoperative period to rehabilitate the patient to avoid sequelae such as early osteoarthrosis and chronic pain.\u0000","PeriodicalId":13833,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Case Reports and Images","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76566365","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}
