Surgical intervention is indicated in cases of SCJ osteomyelitis after the failure of antibiotic therapy trial. This is especially the case in the presence of abscess and bone destruction. SCJ debridement followed by delayed resection and pectoralis muscle flap might offer better results than merely debridement alone or with resection of the joint.

An Amyand's hernia is a rare disease where a vermiform appendix is found within an inguinal hernia sac. It is reported in the literature as having an incidence between 0.4%-1.0% of reported hernia cases. Typically, an incidental finding, Amyand's hernia is consequently found more frequently intra-operatively rather than preoperatively.
This case is a recount of a 56-year-old male, who presented in an outpatient setting for the evaluation of right inguinal pain and bulge. The patient was diagnosed with a vermiform appendix within the indirect hernia. The patient underwent elective repair of his inguinal hernia via Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) approach of the hernia with avoidance of appendectomy.
An Amyand's hernia presents a challenging diagnosis and the treatment algorithm is contingent on the condition of the appendix in individual cases. This case presents a Type 1 Amyand's hernia that was repaired through laparoscopic approach using prosthetic mesh. The aim of this case study highlights the approach to surgical decision making in the diagnosis and treatment of Amyand's hernia proposed in the current literature.
This case presents a rare condition known as Amyand's hernia followed by a discussion on the epidemiology, diagnostic workup, and treatment options. Treatment is dependent on the state of the appendix found in the hernia sac and the clinical scenario. Comprehensive literature review shows that the true prevalence of this disease is lower than classically described and still has no clear standardized approaches.

Severe atherosclerosis is a complicated condition in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and could lead to the operation's failure, when it was not detectable by pre-operative diagnostic imaging. Several methods including two-stage approach, synthetic graft, stent… have been reported, but complications (i.e. infection, graft rejection) are a matter of concern. The aim of this case is to provide the one-stage approach, in which renal transplantation and vascular reconstruction using fresh homografts from one brain-dead donor were used.
We reported a case of a 33-year-old male, who was diagnosed with CKD caused by chronic glomerulonephritis since the age of 28 and had been on hemodialysis. Not until did the transplantation take place that the operation team spotted the atherosclerotic external iliac artery, and vessel graft from the same donor was used and the renal was transplanted. The patient was discharged 14 days after the surgery without any complications.
Kidney transplantation has revolutionized the life of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Around 6% of patients have severe atherosclerosis and the figure is increasing. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/bms-986278.html Vascular degradation in ESRD might lead to unsuccessful operation. One-stage approach (including renal transplantation and external iliac artery replacement) using homograft from one doner is feasible to handle the situation.
Severe atherosclerosis often accompanies with CKD. The difficulties of doing arterial anastomosis increases, which requires advanced techniques to deal with. Surgeons should be prepared about this circumstance. One-stage approach using one donor's homografts, is a possible and safe procedure.

The etiology for intestinal obstruction is often difficult to determine especially in a young patient with a virgin abdomen. Differential diagnosis may include congenital abnormalities such as a more common Meckel's diverticulum but also a rarer mesenteric type internal hernia. Although the definite diagnosis is not as important in an acute setting and diagnosis is often made postoperatively, the preoperative differential diagnosis including the two should be considered for successful management.
We report a case of a 16-year-old young female who has a history of abdominal complaints but treated successfully conservatively. She eventually presented to us with suspicion of intestinal obstruction and image study confirmed an internal hernia. Operative findings showed a Meckel's diverticulum with tip adherent leading to the strangulation of a Treves' field pouch hernia. The encapsulated small bowel resulted in an intestinal obstruction of the terminal ileum.
Meckel's diverticulum is a common congenital abnormality but often asymptomatic. Treves' field of the mesentery is also a congenital abnormality but a much rarer finding often only impressed if herniation of the bowel is involved. However, both can lead to an abdominal emergency.
Intestinal obstruction is often an emergent situation and prompt surgery is usually required. The exact etiology may not be obvious preoperatively especially in a young patient with a virgin abdomen, but differential diagnosis like Meckel's diverticulum and Treves' filed hernia should be important for successful management.
