    Abstract A 55-year-old female presented with history of pain in the right hypochondrium along with complete loss of facial and scalp hair over last two months. On evaluation, she was found to have locally advanced, synchronous malignancies of the gallbladder and head of the pancreas. Synchronous malignancy of gallbladder and pancreas is in itself very rare and less than 10 such cases have been reported in the world literature. Alopecia totalis has been classically associated with various autoimmune disorders. However, alopecia totalis as a presenting feature of any abdominal malignancy has never been reported in the medical literature. The present report describes a rare association of synchronous pancreatobiliary malignancies with strange clinical presentation.

    Abstract Endoscopic biliary stenting is performed for various indications in routine clinical practice. Plastic stents are indicated primarily for short-term biliary decompression and require removal or exchange after 12-16 weeks. However, patients who become asymptomatic after the procedure may not return for scheduled stent removal and subsequently present with severe complications. We herein present the case of a 57-year-old female who underwent biliary stenting after the endoscopic clearance of bile duct stones. Her symptoms resolved after the intervention, but she was lost to follow-up with the stent remaining in situ. Four years later, she presented with pain in the right hypochondrium and experienced recurrent episodes of cholangitis. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography revealed a retained plastic stent in the proximal bile duct with a large stone cast around the stent-a stentolith. Owing to the large stone size and proximal migration of the retained biliary stent, the patient required open surgical exploration for stentolith removal. Patients with forgotten biliary stents presenting with serious complications are not uncommon in India. Unaware of the complications of long-dwelling biliary stents, patients ignore the advice for the timely removal of biliary stents. Detailed patient counselling, education and documentation are essential to avoid this condition.

  6. Article: Electrorheology and shear dependent reversible gelation of elongated α-FeOOH suspensions

    Abstract: We study the effect of applying an external electric field (E) on the rheology and microstructure of α-FeOOH, length (L) = 488 ± 20 nm and an aspect ratio of (5 ± 0.8) – in – silicone oil suspensions (α-FeOOH/silicone oil). The α-FeOOH/silicone oil ... ...

    Abstract We study the effect of applying an external electric field (E) on the rheology and microstructure of α-FeOOH, length (L) = 488 ± 20 nm and an aspect ratio of (5 ± 0.8) – in – silicone oil suspensions (α-FeOOH/silicone oil). The α-FeOOH/silicone oil suspensions show Newtonian response up to α-FeOOH particle volume fraction of 0.039 when no E is applied. The suspensions exhibit τy ~ E² and E¹.⁵ scaling in the low and high E regimes respectively and the normalized τy versus E data of the suspensions collapses onto single master curve, irrespective of the particle loading and applied E. The solid-like behavior of the suspensions is also evident from the frequency-independent storage modulus, and the plateau in relaxation modulus with applied E. The optical microscopy reveals the E driven irreversible network formation of α-FeOOH particles, which does not relax to a uniform dispersion of α-FeOOH particles when the E is switched off. The suspensions demonstrate a reversible ER response once they are sheared at constant shear rate of 10 s⁻¹.

    Abstract An inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare soft tissue neoplasm of unknown etiology. It is a slow-growing tumor of borderline malignant potential. Distant metastases and recurrence after complete excision are rare. Establishing a preoperative diagnosis is difficult because of its nonspecific clinic-radiological features. Although the majority of cases have been reported in the lungs, it can affect any part of the body. The pancreatic inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is very rare and only 26 cases have been reported in the medical literature. These tumors mostly arise from the head of the pancreas, whereas occurrence in the body or tail region is rather unusual. Here, we report a case of a 55-year-old male patient with a locally advanced inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor arising from the pancreatic tail. Complete excision of tumor required multi-visceral resection (distal pancreaticosplenectomy with jejunal and colonic segmental resection). The diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblast tumor was made on the basis of histopathology and immunohistochemistry.

    Abstract Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly of the Mullerian and Wolffian ductal system, manifesting as a triad of dipelphys uterus, obstructed hemivagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Patients usually remain asymptomatic till menarche and experience progressive dysmenorrhea, suprapubic lump, and/or features of infection (pyometra, pelvic collection, etc.) afterward. We hereby present a case of a young lady with Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome with a large endometriotic cyst, likely arising from the right hemiuterus. She presented with dysmenorrhea and progressive abdominal distention for seven years. She was treated by laparoscopic ovarian cyst excision and right hemihysterectomy that relieved her symptoms.

    Abstract Small bowel lipomas are benign submucosal neoplasm composed mainly of mature adipose tissue. Despite their rare occurrence, lipomas are the second most common benign tumour of the small intestine. These tumours are mostly small in size and remain clinically asymptomatic. However, larger lesions tend to be more symptomatic, presenting with complications such as intussusception, bleeding or obstruction. Definitive surgical or endoscopic intervention is indicated in such symptomatic lipomas. Herein, we describe a rare case of ileal lipoma presenting with ileo-ileal intussusception and a life-threatening haemorrhage that was managed by laparoscopic-assisted ileal resection.

    Abstract Bardet-Biedl syndrome is an autosomal-recessive ciliopathic disorder affecting multiple organ systems. Characteristic features include progressive retinal dystrophy, obesity, polydactyly hypogonadism, mental retardation, and renal disorders. Other manifestations include congenital heart diseases, hepatic fibrosis, ataxia, and diabetes. Approximately 30% of patients with Biedl-Bardet syndrome (BBS) have hepatobiliary disorders such as periportal fibrosis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and cystic dilation of the bile ducts. The association of BBS with choledochal cysts (CDC) is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of a 14-year-old boy with a novel variant of BBS and associated type IV CDC. The patient was managed surgically with CDC excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy.
