    Abstract Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are complex vascular lesions most commonly found in the brain and infrequently found in the head and neck. AVMs are characterized by a tangle of blood vessels called a nidus, which shunts blood from an artery directly to a draining vein. Various treatments are available, including surgical resection and endovascular embolization. Here, we report the case of a 32-year-old male patient who complained of painful pulsating left neck swelling with dysphagia for 1 year, which turned out to be an AVM alongside the left thyroid gland. The AVM was treated by embolization using Onyx in 2 sessions. The patient has been free of symptoms since the treatment.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: The literature described Candy cane syndrome (CCS) as causing various symptoms and affecting patients' quality of life. Most of the literature described this syndrome occurrence at gastrojejunostomy (GJ) anastomosis. The literature lacks data on this syndrome occurring at the jejunojejunostomy (JJ).
    Case presentation: We describe a patient who underwent revision of laparoscopic gastric bypass (LGB) due to weight regain and presented three days after the procedure with small bowel obstruction (SBO). The patient was admitted as she demonstrated a picture of SBO. A complete workup and contrast study was done and showed dilated bowel loops. The patient was taken for exploratory laparoscopy, which revealed dilated 10-15 cm candy cane near the JJ, causing and obstruction. Resection of the elongated blind pouch was done, and the patient tolerated the surgery with improvement in her symptoms. Preoperative imaging, perioperative management, procedure videos, and follow-up were used to describe the case.
    Clinical discussion: After reviewing the literature, eight papers reported CCS, 7 of those articles mentioned the syndrome located at the GJ. CCS located near the JJ can lead to symptoms including SBO. Management is mainly surgical, and prevention of occurrence can be achieved by limiting unnecessary elongated blind pouches.
    Conclusion: CCS is a well-established condition occurring at the GJ following LGB, but it can manifest similarly if an elongated blind limb is left unresected at the JJ.

    Abstract Primary adrenal angiosarcoma is a very rare malignancy. This is a case report of a 54-year-old female, who presented with right-sided abdominal pain. Magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and pelvis showed a right adrenal mass with a maximum dimension of 5.7 cm. The patient went for a laparoscopic right adrenalectomy. The postoperative period was uneventful, and she was discharged on postoperative day 2. The patient was free from complaints at outpatient follow-up visits. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis of adrenal angiosarcoma and the metastasis workup was negative. A multidisciplinary approach through the expertise of medical oncology, surgical oncology, and histopathology is essential for the diagnosis and management of such rare diseases.

    Abstract Background: Controversy regarding the timing of pregnancy and its implications is present in the literature.
    Objective: To evaluate the midterm outcome of weight loss in women who have undergone laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) followed by pregnancy at two different times.
    Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 53 women who matched the inclusion criteria and included them in the analysis. Demographics and anthropometric measurements were collected. Women who conceived within 12 months of LSG were labeled as early group (EG), and who conceived after 12 months were noted as late group (LG).
    Results: There were no differences between the groups regarding obesity-associated disease and number of pregnancies before. EG had higher weight (P = 0.0001) and body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.002) at LSG. The mean interval time for EG was 6.7 ± 3.2 months, and LG was 20 ± 5.2 months. Gestational weight gain (GWG) was lower in the EG (P = 0.001). There were no differences in the number of small for gestational age (SGA) births or gestational weight. In the first 2 years after LSG, LG had a higher percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and percentage of body mass index loss (%EBMIL) (P < 0.0001). After 5 years of follow-up, %TWL (P = 0.4) and %EBMIL (P = 0.1) were not statistically significant between both groups.
    Conclusion: Conception within 12 months from LSG might hinder the weight loss process in the short term but have no significant effect over 5 years of follow-up.

    Abstract Objectives: To assess the demographics and clinical factors of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) patients in Saudi Arabia and compared and analyzed the differences between the patients with and without lymph node metastasis (LNM). Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is a common thyroid cancer and is not usually detectable clinically but found incidentally after pathologic evaluation of thyroid tissue following surgery for benign thyroid disorders. However, these tumors have a significant risk of LNM.
    Methods: All PTMC patients who underwent surgery at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, King Fahad Medical City, and King Abdulaziz Medical City from 2012 to 2022 were included. The incidence rate of LNM was 9.17%. The patients' average age was 44.05. Most of the patients were female.
    Results: Prevalence of LNM among PTMC patients is 9.17% (n=31). The PTMC patients showed the following significant risk factors for LNM: higher Bethesda class, type of pathology, extrathyroidal extension, extracapsular extension, lymphovascular invasion, and residual tumors in patients who had received radioactive iodine. Presence of thyroiditis, multifocality, goitrous thyroid, neural invasion, and tumor size were unrelated to the LNM in the PTMC patients.
    Conclusion: Higher Bethesda class, pathology type, extrathyroidal extension, extracapsular extension, lymphovascular invasion, and RAI-treated residual tumors were strongly linked to LNM.

    Abstract Background The application of fine needle aspiration (FNA) in parotid masses via the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) enhances the diagnosis of these lesions alongside radiological investigations.  Objectives Our objective was to assess the risk of malignancy, sensitivity, specificity, and false positive and negative results for each category of the MSRSGC. Additionally, we assessed the level of agreement between the FNA results using MSRSGC and post-resection histopathological diagnosis. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of parotid gland masses that received FNA and postoperative pathological diagnosis at King Saud University Medical City and King Fahad Medical City between 2018 and 2022. We summarized the categorical variables using frequencies and percentages. Results A total of 172 cases met the inclusion criteria. Males encompassed 102 patients (59.3%) of the study sample, and 89 (51.7%) of parotid masses were on the left side. The risk of malignancy for the MSRSGC categories was 37.5% (Category I), 9.0% (II), 50.0% (III), 4.7% (IVa), 50.0% (IVb), 100.0% (V), and 71.0% (VI). FNA had an overall success rate of 81%. The sensitivity was 64% and specificity was 94% for non-neoplastic masses. For benign masses, the sensitivity was 91% and specificity was 66%; however, the sensitivity was 40% and specificity was 97% for malignant lesions. We found that the percentage of agreement between the FNA and final pathology was 80%. Conclusion FNA using MSRSGC is a valuable preoperative clinical tool. However, the low sensitivity rates based on the diagnosis of malignant lesions should alert clinicians not to be overly reliant on biopsy results and instead defer to definitive surgical management.

    Abstract Objectives: To determine the prognostic significance of nodal yield in patients with clinically node-negative (cN0) oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC).
    Methods: This retrospective observational study included 40 patients with cN0 OCSCC who underwent treatment with at least 6 months of follow-up data from November 2012 to April 2020. We recorded the variables, including patient demographics, cancer site, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging, type of treatment, lymph node yield (LNY), histopathologic diagnosis, and recurrence. The recorded data were analyzed with descriptive and interferential statistics using specific tests.
    Results: Our study cohort comprised of 27 males and 13 females with a mean age of 60.08+13.153 years. Tongue (55%) was the commonly affected site. Seventeen (42.5%) patients belonged to TNM stage II. The mean LNY in our study was 38.65±25.41 (range 7-98). Following surgery, 19 (47.5%) patients further received adjuvant therapies. Recurrence was reported only in 4 (10%) patients. There was no significant difference between LNY and recurrence rate (
    Conclusion: There is no correlation between LNY and recurrence in cN0 OCSCC patients in our study. Meticulous neck dissection and thorough pathologic reporting prevents TNM under staging and improves the overall survival and prognosis.
