Ganglioneuroma (GN) is a rare, benign tumor that originates from neural crest cells and can potentially affect any anatomical site within the sympathetic nervous system. Typically, GNs are more frequently reported in children and young adults, with a slightly higher prevalence in females. We are reporting a rare case of a giant lumbar spine ganglioneuroma by outlining the clinical presentation, radiological finding, management, and outcome. Case Description. A 37-year-old female presented with low back pain radiating to the right lower limb for few years. Neurological examination revealed bilateral lower limb hyperreflexia (+3). Lumbar spine CT and MRI revealed a right paravertebral soft tissue lesion with heterogeneous signal intensity and enhancement at L1 to L3. The patient underwent complete resection of the lesion via a retroperitoneal approach. The surgery was uneventful. The histopathological sections were suggestive of mature ganglioneuroma. She was discharged in stable condition with follow-up at neurosurgery clinic. Conclusion. Giant ganglioneuromas are rare, benign tumors of sympathetic neurons. Complete surgical resection is the most effective therapeutic option for ganglioneuroma to avoid recurrence. Given the benign nature of ganglioneuroma, chemotherapy and radiotherapy tend to have a limited role following surgical resection.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"38 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141103782","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}

Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections are a common global health issue that affects underprivileged communities without adequate access to clean drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene. Ascaris lumbricoides is the main species that infects humans. Among varied presentations, intestinal obstruction is common among children. Early detection of intestinal obstruction due to STH is critical to prevent severe complications. Here, we present the case of a 10-year-old child with acute intestinal obstruction due to roundworms. Case Report. A 10-year-old boy presented to the emergency department with recurrent abdominal pain, distention, and vomiting for three months with signs of peritonitis on examination. CT scan of the abdomen revealed roundworms in the distal ileum and a cocoon formed by adhesions of small bowel loops. Intraoperatively, worm balls were found in the proximal jejunum and ileum, causing small bowel obstruction, and a diseased segment of ileum had to be resected. The worms were removed, and an ileostomy was created. The patient was treated with albendazole and intravenous antibiotics such as ceftriaxone and metronidazole. An early closure of ileostomy was performed after 20 days. Histopathology showed roundworm eggs in the appendix and small bowel mucosa. Discussion. Ascaris lumbricoides infestation is a common cause of intestinal obstruction in children, and early detection is critical for avoiding severe complications. Prompt and appropriate treatment with antihelminthics and antibiotics is necessary to achieve a good outcome. In rare cases, surgical intervention may be required to treat intestinal obstruction caused by STH infections. In conclusion, the prevalence of STH infections highlights the need for public health interventions, such as improving access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene, and for early detection and treatment to prevent severe complications such as intestinal obstruction.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2024 ","pages":"6640941"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11074860/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140875899","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}

Reactive immune phenomenon has been reported in association with its occurrence, but the true pathogenesis is unknown. No case was reported in association with inflammatory bowel disease. We report a case of RLH of the liver in a patient with ulcerative colitis (UC). A 55-year-old woman with UC went to the outpatient clinic with abdominal pain, and antibiotics were prescribed with diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Imaging study detected a mass in the liver but ruled out appendicitis. She was referred to our hospital for further examination after pain improving. A 12 mm hypoechoic mass was detected in the liver on ultrasonography. There were no typical malignant findings on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Regular image follow-up was recommended, but the patient strongly requested surgery because of family history of malignant disease. Laparoscopic partial hepatectomy was performed. Histopathological findings revealed a conglomerate hyperplasia of lymphoid follicles with germinal centers. Infiltrating lymphocytes were non-neoplastic. Final diagnosis was RLH of the liver. UC is chronic inflammatory bowel disease and may be related to RLH, but there is no clear explanation at this point. This is the first known reported case of RLH of the liver in a patient with UC. But the relationship between the RLH and UC remains uncertain. Further investigation and case accumulation are necessary.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"2024 ","pages":"9863411"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10904678/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140020913","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 current literature, we found just a few reported small intestine schwannomas that were located in the duodenum, jejunum, or ileum. This study reports a surprising finding of a relatively large size ileal schwannoma in a patient whose preoperative magnetic resonance imaging described a tumour in the lesser pelvis probably derived from the right adnexa. Pfannenstiel incision was made by the gynaecology team, which found a large mass lesion arising from the small intestine and occupying nearly the entire lesser pelvis. The general surgeon was invited, and pathology was successfully managed by segmental resection of the small bowel with primary end-to-end anastomosis. The histopathology study reported a submucosal tumour composed of S-100 protein-positive spindle cells, and the diagnosis of ileal schwannoma was made. The possibility of intestinal neoplasms, including schwannomas, might be contemplated in the differential diagnosis of any pelvic mass lesions. A detailed histology study and immunohistochemical stain are required for the final diagnosis of intestinal schwannomas and to rule out malignant changes, which are extremely important for the further management of patients. To the best knowledge, our case is one of the biggest intestinal schwannomas reported in the current literature.","PeriodicalId":9600,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Surgery","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139779096","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}
