Perforation with Intra-Abdominal Abscess of Appendiceal Goblet Cell Adenocarcinoma Mimicking Perforated Acute Appendicitis: A Rare Case Report

Park N, Lim DR, Kuk JC and Shin EJ

Goblet cell adenocarcinoma is a rare malignant tumor often found incidentally during treatment of acute appendicitis. Occasionally, it is misdiagnosed or accompanied by perforated appendicitis with periappendiceal abscess. Here we present two surgical patient cases of perforation with intra-abdominal abscess of appendiceal goblet cell adenocarcinoma, mimicking perforated acute appendicitis.

Clinical Efficacy of a Giant Paraesophageal Hernia Robotic Repair

Raju H, Ozery M, Henry T, Razi SS, Tarrazzi F and Seaver CR

Recent years have demonstrated significant advances in the utilization of robotic surgery for a wide-ranging variety of cases including paraesophageal hernias. Type IV paraesophageal hernias are of known high risk due to the threat of injuring herniated abdominal viscera during hernia reduction. Currently, the gold standard for repair of Type IV paraesophageal hernias is laparoscopy with or without hiatal mesh ... Read more

Mediastinal Tumor in Children; Case Report and Literature Review

Adjerid R, Djelad M, Sebaa F, Mazouzi C, Abdesslam M and Medjamia M

Mediastinal tumors in children develop in a complex anatomical compartment containing the thymic residue, the digestive tract, the tracheobronchial tree, ganglion areas, and sympathetic nerve chains, thus bringing together a large histological variability of tumors, benign and malignant. Germline tumors account for 6% to 18% of mediastinal tumors in children, and they are the third most common neoplasms of the mediastinum after ... Read more

A Case of Toe Metastasis in a Von Hippel Lindau Disease Patient with Renal Cell Carcinoma

Cherukuri S, Hunter M, McKiernan J and Nowygrod R

Von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an inherited disease classically presenting with multi-organ tumorigenesis. Common tumors include hemangioblastomas, renal cell carcinoma, and pheochromocytoma. Metastasis to the bone, in particular, is common in VHL patients with existing renal lesions. However, bone acrometastasis, defined as a skeletal metastasis distal to the elbow or knee, is a much rarer occurrence. We present a unique case ... Read more
