Fitz-Hugh-Curtis's syndrome (FHCS) is defined as an inflammation of the liver capsule associated with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Here, we report a case of FHCS of a 37-year-old woman, presented with a history of the right upper quadrant (RUQ) abdominal pain. Physical examination revealed RUQ abdominal tenderness and vaginal secretions, pelvic pain that was denied by the patient. The diagnosis has been raised and a computed tomography (CT) scan was realized showing inflammatory changes in both pelvic and perihepatic regions.
Gastric carcinoma perforation is an uncommon consequence that is often missed during the preoperative stage. Perforation may occur at any stage of cancer, but it is more common in late stages. It can also happen early in the illness. Because of the spilled stomach contents, it produces an acute abdominal syndrome. The goal of treatment should be to strike a balance between the emergency situation of peritonitis and oncological surgical techniques. A case of stomach cancer perforation with typical imaging findings is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
