It has several advantages over the circle system in that it is light-weight, convenient with adjustable length. Although most problems with the circuit involve disconnections, obstruction problems related to kinks in the gas delivery tube or foreign body in the elbow have been reported.

Herein, we describe a case of embolic stroke along with blindness and facial necrosis due to facial filler injection. In our case, we describe a patient who developed decreased level of consciousness, left hemiparesis and blindness that was finally diagnosed based on imaging as embolic stroke following facial autologous fat injection.

We are presenting a case series of three such cases and a review of the existing literature on the same. The first case is a victim of a road traffic accident who subsequently presented with diffuse subcutaneous emphysema involving the scrotum. The second case is of Fournier’s gangrene with pneumoscrotum. The third case presented with a spontaneous isolated pneumoscrotum without any cause.

A28 year old female from rural area presented to orthopedic outdoor clinic with pain and swelling around the inguinal region on right side for past 18 months and diagnosis was made after incisional biopsy. Iliac blade is a rare site for presentation and the patient had no neurovascular compression or mass effect on surrounding structures.
