Often diagnosed as vitiligo or morphea, poikilodermatous mycosis fungoides can be asymptomatic or present as pruritic lesions. Discrepant signs and symptoms can lead to diagnostic delays. No consensus on its treatment currently exists, but treatment options include corticosteroids, phototherapy, and radiation. Here, we present a case of poikilodermatous mycosis fungoides in an otherwise healthy young man who showed limited improvement after years of treatment with topical antifungals, topical steroids, and phototherapy. Improvement was seen following a single session of radiation therapy, highlighting radiation's potential in cases resistant to traditional first-line treatments. We propose that radiation may be efficacious for the treatment of poikilodermatous mycosis fungoides in cases of delayed diagnosis or resistance, and further research is needed to investigate radiation monotherapy as a treatment option for poikilodermatous mycosis fungoides.","PeriodicalId":21418,"journal":{"name":"SAGE Open Medical Case Reports","volume":"12 ","pages":"2050313X241274837"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11467975/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142473735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patient was presented with severe symptoms, including abdominal pain, fever, chills, constipation, and vaginal spotting, leading to her hospital admission. Diagnosis was challenging due to the advanced stage of the pregnancy and its abdominal location, particularly in the Douglas pouch, as detected through ultrasonography. According to anatomical standards, this is an intraperitoneal pregnancy rather than an intra-abdominal pregnancy because the fetus developed in the peritoneal cavity. This case is significant for illustrating the critical need for high clinical suspicion and skilled sonographic evaluation to identify such advanced abdominal pregnancies. The successful management of this case through laparotomy, despite the complexities of concurrent conditions, emphasizes the possibility of safe placental removal without increased hemorrhage risk. This report highlights the importance of awareness and expertise in handling rare presentations of ectopic pregnancies, underscoring the potential for positive outcomes with appropriate surgical intervention.","PeriodicalId":21418,"journal":{"name":"SAGE Open Medical Case Reports","volume":"12 ","pages":"2050313X241288432"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11459669/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142396975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical examination revealed urinary leakage from the vagina, with unremarkable abdominal and genital findings. Laboratory investigations were normal. Computed tomography intravenous urography revealed a left duplex collecting system with significant hydroureteronephrosis in the left upper moiety, suggestive of an ectopic ureter. Intraoperative exploration confirmed a duplicated left ureter, with the upper moiety implanted into the vaginal canal. Surgical re-implantation of both left ureters into the bladder was successfully performed, correcting the anatomical anomaly. Postoperative follow-up demonstrated marked improvement in urinary symptoms, restoring the patient's confidence and alleviating emotional distress. This case underscores the complexity and rarity of congenital urinary tract anomalies, particularly in resource-constrained settings, and highlights the importance of a stepwise diagnostic and management approach.","PeriodicalId":21418,"journal":{"name":"SAGE Open Medical Case Reports","volume":"12 ","pages":"2050313X241287078"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11526262/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142558686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the event of migration, it may result in perforation, as shown in our unique case of pericardial perforation through the fundus. Beyond illustrating a rare condition, this case prompts us to engage in a debate about whether to retain or remove asymptomatic foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract. It is a 28-year-old male patient, a prisoner, with a history of recurrent foreign body ingestion leading to five previous interventions, presented a year ago to our emergency department after ingesting four metal rods. Despite recommendations, the patient refused the intervention. After 1 year, he presented to our emergency department for respiratory distress. On examination, he had tachycardia, cardiac auscultation revealed a high-pitched sound signing a pericardial knock and abdominal palpation revealed epigastric tenderness. An abdominal X-ray revealed the presence of metallic foreign bodies located in the gastric area. An electrocardiogram showed a low voltage. Given these findings, there was a strong suspicion of rod migration from the stomach to the thoracic cavity with a cardiac tamponade. An emergency CT scan revealed that the rod had pierced through the stomach and pericardium, causing pericardial effusion. The patient was promptly transported to the operating room to discover the tip of the rod out of the stomach and penetrating the left diaphragm and the pericardial layer. The foreign body was removed.","PeriodicalId":21418,"journal":{"name":"SAGE Open Medical Case Reports","volume":"12 ","pages":"2050313X241287380"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11459493/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142392944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a rare condition. The nasal cavity is in close proximity to the sinuses, eyes, and cranial cavity. If the fly larvae migrate into this location, it may result in significant complications. The prompt and appropriate removal of maggots and the administration of an efficacious treatment can effectively prevent further deterioration of the disease. In this case study, we present the case of a 55-year-old woman who was admitted to the intensive care unit with severe respiratory failure. On the fourth day following admission, the patient remained unconscious, and several white larvae emerged from the nasal cavity. Through identification, the larvae were determined to be Musca domestica larvae. Subsequently, saline irrigation was performed under nasal endoscopy, and anti-inflammatory therapy was administered to the patient to prevent intracranial infection. Following treatment, the patient's symptoms were effectively managed, and the prognosis remained favorable until the 1-month follow-up. This case report presents a literature review of the reported cases of nasal myiasis caused by M. domestica and discusses the susceptibility factors and treatment modalities for nasal myiasis.","PeriodicalId":21418,"journal":{"name":"SAGE Open Medical Case Reports","volume":"12 ","pages":"2050313X241286680"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11457279/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142392942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
