Intestinal Malrotation as a Cause of Chronic Recurring Abdominal Pain in Adult with Caudal Regression Syndrome

Authors: Piedad Arias Rodríguez, María Teresa Garzón Guiteria, Andrea Verdu Segui, Patricia Carreño Morán, Sara de la Mano González and Pilar Garzón Guiteria

Abstract: During embryological development, the midgut undergoes a process of growth and lengthening, which begins at week 5 of gestation and ends shortly after birth and also includes herniation in the umbilical cord, rotation, reduction and fixation. Rotation occurs counterclockwise around the superior mesenteric artery and ends at week 12, at which time the intestine re-enters the abdominal cavity and is attached to the parietal peritoneum, with different anchor points.

Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Pregnant Women

Authors: Maria del Rosario Herrero-Maceda, Alicia S Ojeda-Yuren, Eira Cerda-Reyes and Graciela Castro-Narro

Abstract: The chronic infection HBV is a worldwide public health trouble with high morbidity and mortality. The vertical transmission (pregnancy) has consequences for mother and baby. During pregnancy, cell-mediated immunity is suppressed, possibly because of an increase in adrenal corticosteroids, estrogens, and progesterone, thereby allowing the woman to tolerate the semiallogenic fetus.

The Design of Clinical Trials in Irritable Bowel Syndrome using Acupuncture and Related Meridian Therapies

Authors: Affifa Farrukh

Abstract: Current allopathic treatments for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are of limited efficacy. Complementary therapies, such as acupuncture, moxibustion, massage and cupping, including hijama, are frequently promoted in the lay press as effective alternatives. In addition, a number of clinical trials have been published, especially with regards to acupuncture, which indicate that they do have therapeutic benefits.

Retrospective Study Pages 120-125

Identification of High-Risk Individuals for Bleeding from Post-Endoscopic Variceal Band Ligation Ulceration

Authors: Rohita Reji, MBBS (Hons), Niamh Siobhan Buckley, MB, BCh and BAO*#, Justin Chin, MBBS, FRACP and Simon Hazeldine, BSc, MBBS, MRCP, FRACP

Abstract: Endoscopic variceal band ligation (EVBL) plays an important role in management of esophageal varices for both primary prophylaxis and acute hemorrhage. However, life-threatening bleeding secondary to post-banding ulceration, whilst uncommon, can occur. This study aimed to identify rates of EVBL-induced ulcer bleeding in elective and non-elective settings, and to assess potential risk factors which contribute to this serious complication.

Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis with Tongue Ulcer

Authors: Ai-Chao Shi, Meng-Ting Li and Wei Liu

Abstract: We describe our experience with a 69-year-old gentleman who presented with phlegmonous acute cholecystitis affecting a left-sided gallbladder. The cholecystectomy was successfully completed by a total laparoscopic approach. Through this Case report we highlight the possibility of occurrence of such an entity (true left-sided gallbladder), the risks entailed, and to stress the need to abandon surgical hubris in favour of wisdom in the interest of patient safety should the situation appear unclear and overtly challenging to the surgeon.
