Case Presentation: We present a case of an 18-year-old female from Uganda who was admitted with a 6-month history of progressive dysphagia, weight loss, and postprandial vomiting. Diagnosis of achalasia cardia was confirmed via endoscopy and barium swallow. Heller cardiomyotomy via open transthoracic approach was performed, but she developed an esophageal perforation, which was successfully managed with repeat thoracotomy and esophageal repair. Complete resolution of achalasia symptoms was achieved at a 5-month follow-up. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of clinical suspicion, especially in young patients, and the significance of informed consent prior to initiating treatment. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of early recognition of treatment-related complications, such as esophageal perforation, as key to prompt management and improved patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2025 ","pages":"5527940"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11991763/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143967083","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 some cases, cryptorchid testes are discovered incidentally during inguinal hernia repair in adults, requiring appropriate management at the time of surgery. Case Presentation: Case 1: A 58-year-old male underwent emergency laparoscopic surgery for a left incarcerated hernia. Intraoperatively, an M2 indirect inguinal hernia with omental strangulation of the spermatic cord was identified. Despite attempts to pull the testis down manually, it did not descend into the scrotum, leading to the diagnosis of cryptorchidism. The spermatic cord was excised and a 3D mesh was placed to cover the hernia defect. Case 2: A 33-year-old man with Noonan syndrome presented with localized pain and swelling in the right groin. Laparoscopy revealed an indirect L3 inguinal hernia and incidentally an intra-abdominal testis was found. The testis and spermatic vessels were found to terminate intra-abdominally, confirming the diagnosis of cryptorchidism. An orchiopexy was performed to secure the testis subcutaneously in the scrotum and the hernia was repaired with a 3D mesh. Conclusion: The safety of mesh-based hernia repair in cases of cryptorchidism with concomitant inguinal hernia has been previously reported. In cases where preoperative palpation is difficult due to pain, intraoperative traction of the testis may help differentiate between cryptorchidism and retractile testis. In addition, orchiopexy may serve as a temporary measure, with consideration of staged orchiectomy if necessary.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2025 ","pages":"9852275"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11991829/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143977682","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 occurrence of dense, linear calcifications or phlebolith-like formations within the soft tissues of the lower extremities, particularly in the superficial femoral, greater saphenous, or popliteal veins, is rare. Patient Concerns: This study presents the case of a 73-year-old woman who was being evaluated for postmenopausal bleeding. During the patient's diagnostic workup, an incidental linear-shaped phlebolith was discovered. She had a positive history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) for 36 years following her previous vaginal delivery. Diagnosis: Upon further examination and imaging, the patient was found to have a chronic calcified thrombus in the iliofemoral, popliteal, great saphenous, and superficial femoral veins, which was initially reported as a foreign body in the femoral vein on computed tomography (CT). Interventions and Outcomes: Conservative management was undertaken, with no worsening of her condition upon further follow-up. Conclusion: This study showcased a rare form of a radiographically visible calcified thrombus in the veins of the lower extremities of our patient. Calcified venous thrombosis in the lower extremities is rare, as previously documented cases of venous calcifications have been observed in the pelvis with round shapes or as phleboliths. The common presentations differ from those in our case, making it important to consider such cases when formulating a differential diagnosis. While the precise mechanisms behind the formation of calcified thrombi remain unclear, this study emphasizes the significance of further exploration and future case studies to shed light on this enigmatic phenomenon.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2025 ","pages":"8824786"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11752081/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143022160","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}

This case report outlines the presentation, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of a 71-year-old male patient who experienced iatrogenic rectal perforation during the routine insertion of a Foley catheter, against the backdrop of several predisposing factors, such as atrial fibrillation, valvular disease, benign prostatic hyperplasia, urethral stenosis, and colorectal cancer with liver metastasis. The inadvertent creation of a rectourethral fistula during the procedure led to an urgent multidisciplinary approach involving surgery and postoperative management, including fecal and urine diversion and antibiotic therapy. The case highlights the critical importance of meticulous technique and comprehensive preoperative patient assessment in minimizing the risk of such iatrogenic complications. It further discusses the management strategies for rectourethral fistulas, ranging from conservative approaches to surgical interventions, and emphasizes the role of fecal diversion, urine diversion, and the potential of robotic surgery in enhancing outcomes for complex cases. The report concludes by reflecting on the intricate balance between routine medical procedures and the potential for severe complications, highlighting the need for heightened awareness and skill in the prevention and management of iatrogenic rectal perforation.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2025 ","pages":"4784527"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11735056/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143000589","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}
