Acute viral myocarditis in the setting of SARS-CoV-2 can present many weeks after the initial infection.Incomplete 90° intestinal rotation in a clockwise direction results in complete common mesentery being placed in a mirror image to and with a similar appearance to complete common mesentery. This rotation places the colon in the right half of the abdominal cavity and the small intestine in the left half of the abdominal cavity. We report the case of a 19-year-old patient with a history of cerebral palsy secondary to meningitis who presented with melaena and inflammatory anaemia. CT enterography was performed which showed regular, non-stenosing circumferential wall thickening of the sigmoid colon and rectosigmoid junction compatible with Crohn's disease, which was confirmed by pathophysiology. It also revealed transposition of the colon to the right hemi-abdomen and the small intestine to the left hemi-abdomen, the caecum to the right iliac fossa, and the third portion of the duodenum to the left of the mesenteric vessels.
Complete common mesentery in the mirror image is an anomaly of intestinal rotation, placing the colon in the right half of the abdomen and the small intestine in the left half of the abdomen.It can be asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during assessment for other conditions.

B-cell lymphoma may develop simultaneously at the time of AITL diagnosis or after treatment for AITL. EBV-associated B-cell lymphoma can occur in nodal and extranodal sites. We report a case of EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the left adrenal gland that developed after treatment for AITL. The patient presented with systemic lymphadenopathy and biopsy of one lymph node showed AITL. A complete response (CR) was achieved after initial chemotherapy for AITL, but 9 months later the left adrenal gland was enlarged. The diagnosis of EBV-positive DLBCL was made based on the histopathological findings of the left adrenal gland biopsy. Thus, EBV-positive DLBCL developed after AITL CR was achieved. Multi-drug chemotherapy combined with rituximab was administered for adrenal DLBCL, but only a partial response was achieved. We confirmed that EBV-positive B-cell lymphoma developed after tl lymphoma (AITL)When patients present with signs and symptoms suggestive of relapse after AITL treatment, another biopsy should be performed for the accurate determination of whether these lesions indicate AITL relapse or new-onset of EBV-positive B-cell lymphoma.The involvement of extranodal sites may indicate a poor prognosis of EBV-positive B-cell lymphoma after AITL treatment.
Extracapsular femoral neck fractures in the presence of a resurfacing hip arthroplasty (RHA) appear to be independent of suboptimal technique during the initial implantation of the RHA and present with a similar etiology as native hip fractures - that is, a fragility fracture related to pathological or age-related osteoporosis, as a consequence of trauma. In the presence of a well-fixed and previously well-functioning RHA, the options for management include revision arthroplasty or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). In the absence of loosening through mechanisms of wear, infection, metallosis, or suboptimal prosthesis positioning, many authors have advocated ORIF with implant retention. However, there is often debate regarding the use of total hip arthroplasty in these cases.
The authors conducted a thorough assessment of the literature followed by a retrospective review of outcomes for three patients treated by ORIF with implant retention for extracapsular femoral neck fractures around a RHA, unt option in an independent and active patient. A higher level of evidence is needed to investigate the surgical management options of these injuries comparing osteosynthesis with revision arthroplasty.
Ochronotic arthropathy in patients with alkaptonuria is a rare hereditary disorder. The altered metabolism causes the homogentesic acid derivatives to deposit in various connective tissues causing characteristic pigmentation. Due to the close clinical resemblance to that of a degenerative disorder, diagnosis of ochronotic arthropathy usually occurs intraoperatively. Adaptaquin We report arthroscopic findings of a 50-year-old female with ochronotic arthropathy.
A 50-year-old woman came with complaints of pain and swelling in the left knee. Clinical examination and MRI findings were correlated to reveal a tear of lateral meniscus. On arthroscopic examination, the blackish pigmentation of the meniscus and the articular cartilage led to the diagnosis of ochronotic arthropathy.
Arthroscopy plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment of patients with ochronotic arthropathy. The characteristic arthroscopic finding may aid diagnosis even in patients who do not have other systemic manifestations. Timely arthroscopic intervention can help delay the disease progression.

Solitary osteochondromas are extremely rare in the bones of the foot. In the growing skeleton, few cases affecting the metatarsals and the talus have been reported. At present, there have been no reports of osteochondromas affecting the cuneiforms.
We report the case of a 13-year-old male patient. He presented with marked prominences in the plantar surface of his left foot and pain while participating in sporting activities. Radiological examination with X-rays, computed tomography (CT) scan, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed two solitary osteochondromas growing from the medial cuneiform and the head of the 1st metatarsal. The patient was treated surgically by excision of the osteochondromas. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of osteochondromas. He had an uneventful recovery and returned to his sporting activities.
Solitary osteochondroma can present in the cuneiform and metatarsal of a growing adolescent. CT scan is useful for the accurate diagnosis and surgical removal of the tumor.

Physeal injuries of proximal tibia are uncommon and constitute only 1% of all physeal injuries. Major vessel injuries are also rare in children and occur in 0.6% trauma cases, out of which, injuries of popliteal artery comprise only 5%. The combination of these is an extremely rare injury pattern but is potentially limb threatening. Most of the cases of physeal injuries of proximal tibia along with popliteal artery compromise, reported in the literature include Salter Harris (SH) type II, III, and IV patterns (type II being most common) with pure type I being extremely rare.
We describe a rare posteriorly displaced pure SH I injury of proximal tibial physis with compromised vascularity of the limb. Immediate closed reduction and stabilization with Kirschner wires (K-wires) restored the vascularity of the limb and the patient went on to have a good functional recovery at the last follow-up of 1 year.
Vascular injuries occurring in SH 1 proximal tibial physeal fractures are often overlooked or missed due to the relatively benign appearance of slip with no sharp fragments to injure major vessels. Close monitoring of neurovascular status and a low threshold for fixation, for example, with K-wires, are important to prevent limb threatening ischemia in these relatively simple appearing injuries.

Winging of scapula is defined as a failure of dynamic stabilizing structures that anchor the scapula to the chest wall, leading to prominence of the medial border of scapula. It could be primary, secondary, or voluntary. Primary winging could be true winging due to neuromuscular causes or pseudo-winging due to osseous or soft-tissue masses. A scapular osteochondroma is a very rare presentation site and causes pseudo-winging leading to pushing away of the scapula away from the chest wall presenting as medial border prominence. Here, we are reporting a rare case of a scapular osteochondroma causing a pseudo-winging of the scapula.
A 2-year-old male child presented with painless, immobile, and non-fluctuant swelling over the left scapular region, insidious in onset and progressive in nature. On examination, a non-tender, immobile swelling was palpable with a painless and unrestricted range of motion at the shoulder joint. After evaluating radiographs and CT scan, the patient was diagnosed to have a ventral scapular osteochondroma leading to pseudo-winging of the scapula.
Despite the rarity, a differential diagnosis of a scapular osteochondroma should be kept in mind while examining a young child presenting with a winged scapula.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using hamstring tendon graft is a commonly performed orthopedic surgery. Lateral femoral condyle fracture through the femoral tunnel is a rare complication following ACL reconstruction. These cases are reported to be managed in two stages, fracture fixation by open reduction and internal fixation with bone grafting of the femoral tunnel, followed by revision ACL reconstruction after the fracture union.
A 41-year-old male Kabaddi player underwent right knee arthroscopic ACL reconstruction following an ACL tear in January 2021, sustained a road traffic accident 7 weeks later and developed a lateral femoral condyle fracture. The graft was intact and trapped into the fracture site making fracture reduction difficult. The graft was lax due to the fixed loop button being trapped in the fracture. The patient was treated in a single stage by arthroscopy assisted fracture reduction and fixation with ACL graft salvage and reinforced suspensory femoral graft fixation to plate suspensory fixation.
This case is a rare presentation of lateral condyle fracture after ACL reconstruction and both the issues are managed in a single stage with the help of detailed surgical planning, using utmost arthroscopy skills and keeping all the options of fixation devices ready on the table during the surgery.
