The disease is endemic to Assam in northeastern India, although sporadic cases have been reported in other Asian countries and across different continents. The disease primarily affects the right colon, leading to epithelial desquamation, inflammation, and increased secretion of colonic mucus. We report the case of a 30-year-old Indian man with a history of cramping lower abdominal pain, increased stool frequency, and weight loss, with an inflammatory pattern on routine stool analysis, detected to have multiple platyhelminths adherent to the cecum and ascending colon, subsequently confirmed microbiologically as G. hominis and effectively treated with mebendazole. Our case highlights the importance of considering rare helminthic infections in patients with chronic gastrointestinal symptoms, particularly those from endemic areas, and the role of colonoscopy in confirming the diagnosis and guiding treatment.","PeriodicalId":7394,"journal":{"name":"ACG Case Reports Journal","volume":"12 5","pages":"e01699"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12047897/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955025","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}

However, their gastrointestinal effects, such as slowed motility, may lead to adverse outcomes, including small bowel obstruction. Intussusception, a rare complication in adults, has been sparsely reported with GLP-1RA use. We present a 32-year-old woman with iron deficiency anemia who was incidentally diagnosed with transient small bowel intussusception on computed tomography enterography while on semaglutide therapy. No evidence of obstruction or pathological lead point was identified, and follow-up imaging showed resolution without intervention. This case suggests a possible link between GLP-1RA therapy and intussusception, likely secondary to altered gastrointestinal motility. Clinicians should remain vigilant for rare complications associated with GLP-1RAs, particularly in patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. Further studies are warranted to elucidate this association.","PeriodicalId":7394,"journal":{"name":"ACG Case Reports Journal","volume":"12 5","pages":"e01679"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12026376/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955078","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 characterized by the triad of alacrimia, achalasia, and adrenal insufficiency. It is caused by mutations in the AAAS gene (achalasia-addisonianism-alacrima syndrome), which disrupts the protein ALADIN (Alacrima-Achalasia-Adrenal insufficiency Neurologic disorder protein), which plays an important role in nucleocytoplasmic transport and cellular stress response. Unlike the presented cases, most patients with TAS present in early childhood with various symptoms including dry eyes, difficulty swallowing, and recurrent infections in addition to signs of adrenal crisis such as hypotension, hypoglycemia, and hyperpigmentation. Diagnosis can be achieved by genetic testing, revealing the mutations in the AAAS gene. Management of TAS mainly focuses on addressing each condition separately such as prescribing artificial tears for alacrimia, glucocorticoid replacement therapy for adrenal insufficiency, and performing pneumatic dilation or surgical intervention for achalasia. Early diagnosis is crucial for improving quality of life and minimizing the morbidity and mortality linked to the syndrome.","PeriodicalId":7394,"journal":{"name":"ACG Case Reports Journal","volume":"12 5","pages":"e01686"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12026375/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143958627","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}
