ABSTRACT
Morgagni’s hernia is rare in pediatrics, representing 1%-6% of all congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDH). We report a young boy presented with obstructive jaundice caused by compression of common bile duct (CBD) due to stretching and rotation of second part of duodenum in right-sided Morgagni hernia. Such presentation is rarely reported in literature.
ABSTRACT
Introduction Incidence of community acquired methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is increasing. Toxic shock syndrome (TSS), Necrotizing fasciitis (NF), Symmetrical peripheral gangrene (SPG) as a manifestation of CA-MRSA are rare in pediatrics. Case Presentation We report a young boy who presented with TSS, NF and SPG by CA-MRSA following trauma. Conclusion CA-MRSA should be taken into consideration as an etiology for these type of clinical presentations. Early and aggressive surgical and medical intervention are the cornerstone for successful management.
ABSTRACT
A one-year-old boy was admitted with complaints of swelling in the left inguinoscrotal region and an empty right scrotum since birth. The inguinoscrotum contained two ovoid solid swellings one above the other. The swellings were testes like in feel, size and shape. The diagnosis was transverse testicular ectopia. The case was managed by surgery. Tissue from gonads, the tubular structures and the fallopian tubes were sent for histopathological examination for confirmation. This was a case of an otherwise normal male with transverse testicular ectopia with persistent Muellerian duct syndrome in the left inguinoscrotal hernial sac.

A 17-year-old Muslim female presented with a swelling over the chest wall underneath her left breast. The swelling was aspirated and the cytology report of the aspirated material showed it to be of pyogenic origin. An incision and drainage was done, after which the patient presented with a non-healing discharging sinus at the same site. The exact nature of the disease was known only after excising the sinus tract with the affected rib.
