When Aunt Minnie turns out to be a Zebra: distal bile duct adenomyoma stimulating pancreas head tumor.

A 55-year-old female patient with a history of ethyl and nicotine abuse presented with chronic diarrhoea, significant weight loss and abnormal liver tests. Ultrasound examination revealed dilatation of the bile ducts and computed tomography scan with IV contrast further established simultaneous dilatation of the common bile duct and pancreatic duct (double duct sign). The dilatation abruptly stopped at the level of the pancreatic head which demonstrated a small irregular hypovascular zone (1.

Don't burn the blanket to kill a flea: a case of intra-abdominal desmoid fibromatosis.

A 39-year-old woman presented to the Emergency Department with dysuria and persistent abdominal pain for several weeks. The pain increased with palpation. Physical examination was otherwise normal.

Endovascular management of an isolated dissection of the celiac artery following a blunt deceleration-type trauma.

A 29-year-old, otherwise healthy male was brought to the emergency department after suffering an injury from falling from the roof of his house. Whole-body computed tomography (CT) showed a small ostial dissection of the celiac artery (CA) associated with a pseudoaneurysm, thrombosis, and retroperitoneal periaortic hematoma. The celiac trunk was otherwise normal with good distal patency and no signs of intestinal ischemia.

Early treatment response predicts outcome in patients with idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO₂) therapy is used in the treatment of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL). Some patients, however, do not benefit from HBO₂ therapy despite several weeks of treatment. We hypothesized that early treatment response could predict treatment failure.
