Retrocaval ureter is an uncommon cause of ureteric obstruction due to a rare congenital anomaly of inferior vena cava. We report a case of 23 year old male who presented with right flank pain and was diagnosed with ultrasound and intravenous urography. He underwent open retroperitoneal ureteroureterostomy.
Hernia is a very common surgical problem. Drain site hernias are very rare (0.1-3.4 %) incidence quoted in literature. We report the case of a 40year old male who presented with a swelling in the right lower abdomen. CT scan revealed herniation of small bowel with interstitial spread through a former drain site placed after a previous laparotomy 10 years back.
We present a case report of an unusual large foreign body in Rectum. Our patient presented with signs of intestinal obstruction following insertion of plastic oil bottle in the rectum for breaking fecal impaction. Patient was then evaluated and transanal retrieval of foreign body was carried out successfully.
