Ultrasonographic evaluation of acute idiopathic scrotal wall oedema in adults.

Acute idiopathic scrotal wall oedema is an uncommon cause of acute scrotal oedema that usually affects the paediatric population and is rarely encountered in adults. It frequently goes away without the need for surgery, presenting as sudden scrotal oedema and erythema. Acute idiopathic scrotal wall oedema is diagnosed and distinguished from other scrotal disorders by clinical examination and ultrasonography, which includes the distinctive 'fountain sign'.

``Prenatally diagnosed gastroschisis: A case report''.

Gastroschisis represents a congenital malformation characterized by the herniation of abdominal contents through a defect in the abdominal wall, predominantly situated to the right of the umbilical cord. The defect is characterized by the absence of a covering membrane, resulting in the free floating of extruded abdominal contents. Major complications associated with this condition include stillbirth, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth restriction.

Navigating the neurovascular maze of trigeminal neuralgia.

Tic douloureux, also known as trigeminal neuralgia, is distinguished by recurrent episodes of severe, lancinating pain that affects one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve, representing a prevalent pain syndrome. This condition has an annual incidence rate of 27 per 100,000 individuals. Nevertheless, direct compression caused by vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) represents a considerably less frequent etiology of trigeminal neuralgia, with an estimated overall incidence of about 1%.
