Abstract BackgroundAnatomic variation may increase the difficulty and risk for anatomic segmentectomy. The preoperative three-dimensional computed tomography bronchography and angiography(3D-CTBA) can provide a detailed model of the segmental structure, and contribute to precise and safe segmentectomy.Case presentationWe report a case with anomalous bronchi and pulmonary vessels in the right upper posterior segment (RS2), under the guidance of 3D-CTBA, anatomic RS2segmentoctomywas performed accurately and safely, the postoperative condition was uneventful.ConclusionsThis rare case highlights the importance of 3D-CTBA to guild accurate segmentectomy with anatomic variation.

A ten-month old, male Black and Tan Coonhound dog was referred with ocular bleeding due to gunshot injury. His mental state was normal. A computed tomography revealed that the bullet was planted in the left cranium. It was presumed that the trajectory of the bullet penetrated from the right medial angle of the eye to the orbit, and changed its track to caudo-dorsal by penetrating the cranium, ending up at the left cranium. The bullet was removed by lateral rostrotentorial craniectomy. No complications were observed during a one-year follow-up except the blindness in the right eye. This is a rare case of gunshot-induced traumatic brain injury featuring a bullet which went through the orbit into the cranium. The damaged frontal lobe seemed to show no neurological signs at the time of first examination in this case. In conclusion, a less aggressive surgical approach is recommended to remove bullets when they are accessible.

A 6-year-old male cross-breed rabbit ( Oryctolagus cuniculus) was presented with lameness and severe swelling from the right shoulder to brachium. On 16-detector helical computed tomography images of the amputated right forelimb after being fixed in formalin, evident proliferative and destructive lesions of bone were observed. On histologic examination, the tumor was composed of proliferating neoplastic cells that resembled histiocytes, with abundant osteoid production. A large number of multinucleated giant cells were found throughout. This case was diagnosed as osteosarcoma by clinical, radiographic, and histologic findings. This is a rare case report of osteosarcoma in a rabbit consistent with canine predilection sites.


We report a very rare case of squamous cell cancer of the right foot which had metastasize to the ipsilateral popliteal lymph node after initial diagnosis and treatment for the loco-regional disease.

Bonebridge (BB) is the first active implantation system for bone conduction that is placed fully under the skin. Experience suggests that BB is characterized by low incidence of postoperative complications. This case report presents a rare case of a 16-year-old girl with incidence of emphysema occurring over the implant 1 year after operation. We performed a computed tomography scan that showed pockets of gas above the floating mass transducer so we provided the revision surgery and sealed the artificial opening with fat from the earlobe and fibrin glue. Since that time, no air has collected in the retroauricular area and the implant has been fully functional.

Introduction. Cystic echinococcosis or hydatid disease is a parasitic disease, zoonosis, and is most commonly caused by Echinococcus granulosus larvae. It mainly occurs in endemic areas. The most common localization is the liver. Case outline. In this paper, we will present our experience with a 67-year-old female patient diagnosed with an echinococcal cyst in the right lobe of the liver, as confirmed by computed tomography examination of the abdomen. The patient underwent laparoscopic partial pericystectomy with omentoplasty. The operation went without complications, as well as the postoperative period. Conclusion. Laparoscopic partial pericystectomy is a safe and effective treatment of available hepatic hydatid cysts. Considering all the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic partial pericystectomy of hepatic hydatid cysts may be the treatment of choice, over the classical open surgery approach.
