No complications were found during the follow-up.
The results from this proposal will allow to evaluate the safety and efficacy profile associated with a stomal bags.

Ameloblastoma is a benign neoplasm of odontogenic origin with local invasive characteristics and a high recurrence rate. It compromised 1% of the jaw's cysts and tumors with only 10-15% in children.
A 14-year-old boy sought treatment for a painless swelling involving the right side of the face started one year ago. The intra-oral examination displayed a firm mass associated with 46, 47 teeth, and the angle of the mandible. The radiographic examination revealed a large well-defined homogeneous radiolucency extending from the 46 region to involve the angle and extending towards the coronoid and condylar processes. An incisional biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of unicystic ameloblastoma. Treatment was planned according to the patient's age Phase I Surgical enucleation. Phase II Construction and insertion of a surgical stent. Phase III Construction of a transitional acrylic Kennedy class II partial denture. Phase IV the patient is scheduled for a definitive implant-supported prosthesis at 18 years old.
The management of ameloblastoma is influenced by the age of the patient, the extension, duration, and position of the lesion, and the histopathological variants. buy Namodenoson Several authors recommended enucleation as a conservative treatment approach to eliminate the esthetical, functional, and psychological squeals associated with the radical approach. The use of a surgical stent protects the enucleated cavity and promote tissue healing.
Enucleation and subsequent surgical stent not only eliminates the disease, but also preserves the bone structure, prevents the facial disfigurement, and significantly improve the patient's esthetic, mastication, oral health, and quality of life.

Obstructed colon cancer is not an uncommon surgical emergency. Many other surgical diseases may overlap their presenting symptoms. This paper aims to report a colon cancer case with delayed diagnosis due to a long-standing para-umbilical hernia (PUH).
60-year-old female patient presented to our emergency department (ED) with an obstructed PUH. The patient underwent watchful conservative management many times before due to associated comorbidities. This history of recurrent intestinal obstruction and incomplete regain of regular bowel habits after every hospital admission raises the possibility for concealed pathology. Further investigations, including computed tomography (CT), revealed a suspicion of an obstructed malignant mass at the colon's splenic flexure accompanied with complete bowel obstruction. The patient and their family consulted for exploratory laparotomy and the possibility of stoma formation. The intra-operative finding was constant with a small ventral defect, and a dilated bowel loops up ut the patient's exact complaints is mandatory to decrease morbidity and mortality rates.
In the same patient, both colon cancer and abdominal wall hernias can produce conflicting symptoms and delay diagnosis. However, with a high index of suspicion and correlation of patient symptoms, can be safely managed without morbidity.

Intestinal Intussusception is defined as invagination of the intussusceptum into the intussuscepien, and is responsible of 1% of all bowel obstructions. It is rare in adults and common in children. It is mostly due to organic causes in adults that form lead points. Enteroenteric intussusception is the most common type. Signs and symptoms are more classic in children but nonspecific in adults. Usually diagnosis is made intraoperatively, while abdomino-pelvic CT scan is the best preoperative imaging modality. Intestinal Intussusception in adults, especially when the colon is involved, is best treated by surgical resection.
A 24 years old previously healthy male with no surgical or documented familial history presenting for severe crampy abdominal pain and distention, obstipation and palpable right lower quadrant abdominal mass. Abdominal Multi-slice CT diagnosed an ileo-colic intussusception without signs of bowel suffering. Laparoscopic ileo-cecetomy. Final Pathology showed a 4 cm cecal tubular adenomatous polyp with multifocal high grade dysplasia.
Intestinal intussusception in adults is an interesting rare entity that have the interest of general surgeons. Malignant lesions can be lead-points and they form a great counterpart among other colonic lesions. Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery is gaining interest in management, and surgical resection remains the gold standard while reduction before surgery is debatable and can be considered in selected cases.

Electrical injuries comprise a minority of burn center admissions but are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. This is a case of a patient who suffered high-voltage electrical injury who survived despite developing several sequalae, who had an unusual presentation of inhalation injury complicated by the aspiration of metal screws.
This is a 20-year-old male who suffered electrical contact injury, and 45.5% total body surface area (TBSA) burns from electrothermal discharge and subsequent ignition of clothing, whose hospital course was complicated by rhabdomyolysis, compartment syndrome, renal failure, and inhalation injury. After cardiac arrest with successful defibrillation and intubation in the field, he was found to have metallic foreign bodies in his airway. Metal screws were retrieved using rigid bronchoscopy and lower extremity escharotomy was performed for compartment syndrome. He was placed on renal replacement therapy for persistent acidosis and severe rhabdomyolysis. On post-burn day (PBD) 3 he developed severe hypoxia and bronchoscopy showed evidence of inhalation injury.
