Postsleeve gastrectomy fistula is a serious complication, and its management remains quite challenging. The clinical presentation of chronic fistula after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) varies widely and depends on the type of fistula. Management requires a multidisciplinary approach and patient cooperation.

We present a case of a 41-year-old woman with a body mass index (BMI) of 46 kg/m

who initially underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in our hospital. Later, she developed a gastro-colo-diaphragmatic fistula (GCD), which was successfully treated using an endolaparoscopic approach. Follow-up imaging and endoscopy showed complete healing of the fistula, as well as a marked clinical improvement of the patient.

Gastro-colo-diaphragmatic fistula following sleeve gastrectomy is an extremely rare complication. This is the first case of a GCD fistula after sleeve gastrectomy that has been reported in the literature.

One staged endolaparoscopic management was successful approach in our case and can be considered for complex gastric fistula following sleeve gastrectomy.

Splanchnic venous thrombosis (SVT) originating in the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) is rare and may cause acute intestinal infarction (AII). Protein C deficiency (PCD) results in thrombophilia.

Acute unexplained SVT originating in the SMV and portal vein was detected in 68-year-old man. Pan-peritonitis and AII were diagnosed and emergency surgery performed. Part of the small intestine was necrotic and partial resection without anastomotic reconstruction was performed. Heparin was administered intravenously continuously from postoperative day (POD) 1. Hereditary, heterozygous, type 1 PCD was diagnosed postoperatively. The anastomosis was reconstructed on POD 16. Warfarin was substituted for heparin on POD 22. No recurrent thrombosis occurred during 2 years of follow-up.

Patients with the rare condition of SVT require prompt diagnosis and treatment and may have underlying disease. PCD can cause SVT even in intact veins and anticoagulation therapy should be administered immediately postoperatively. Misdiagnosis and/or delayed treatment of SVT can result in AII, a life-threatening condition with a high mortality rate. Insufficient clinician awareness can result in serious mismanagement of patients with PCD and SVT; emergency patients with AII caused by unexplained SVT should therefore be further investigated for prothrombotic states and assessment of coagulation-fibrinolysis profiles to clarify the underlying mechanism.

We here present a thought-provoking emergency case of AII associated with acute SVT caused by underlying PCD that was successfully treated by two-stage surgery and anticoagulation therapy. This case provides a timely reminder for emergency clinicians and gastrointestinal surgeons.

Malignant rhabdoid tumours (MRTs) were first described as an infrequent variant of Wilms' tumour and have been reported in several organs. The small intestine is a rare site for MRTs.

A 70-year-old man presented with appetite loss and melena. Haemorrhagic small intestinal tumours, swollen mesenteric and paraaortic lymph nodes, a tumour in the left kidney, and multiple tumours in the lung were found. He underwent partial resection of two haemorrhagic small intestinal tumours classified as MRTs based on the results of a pathological examination. However, melena appeared again on postoperative day 6. Pomalidomide concentration We performed another operation and resected approximately 180 cm of the small intestine that contained multiple tumours. All lesions were classified as MRTs. Unfortunately, melena appeared again 4 days after the second operation. He did not want invasive therapy and died from massive melena 2 months after the initial surgery.

MRTs of the small intestine are uncommon and have an extremely poor prognosis. Although curative resection is an important treatment, cases of metastasis at diagnosis and postoperative early recurrence have been observed, as was the case for the patient described herein. In these cases, effective systemic therapy is necessary. Recently, tumour suppressor genes were shown to be involved in the occurrence of MRT, and new therapies for MRT have been studied.

We herein conclude effective systemic therapy is necessary for MRTs with multiple organ involvement. The development of new drugs for this disease is ongoing.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children. TBI in children are responsible for a range of clinical symptoms and signs that are comparable to those in adults, but present several differences in both physiopathology and management. Many postoperative complications may occur, ischemic stroke among others, which is generally related to an injury of an intracranial artery. Out of this case, it may be more difficult to find a suitable explanation to this complication.

We report the case of a child aged years old, who was collided by a car causing a polytrauma with head and chest injury. On body scan, she had a fracture of the sixth left rib, and a frontal cranio-cerebral wound. The patient was operated for debridement of the wound, and tight closure of the injured dura mater. Initial postoperative course was uneventful, but 5 days after first surgery patient presented an acute onset of a right hemiplegia followed by an alteration of her state of consciousness, and owed by stringent post-operative care may prevent such outcomes.Current methods of analyzing data from naturalistic driving studies provide important insights into real-world safety-related driving behaviors, but are limited in the depth of information they currently offer. Driving measures are frequently collapsed to summary levels across the study period, excluding more fine-grained differences such as changes that occur from trip to trip. By retaining trip-specific data, it is possible to quantify how much a driver differs from trip to trip (within-person variability) in addition to how he or she differs from other drivers (between-person variability). To the authors' knowledge, the current study is the first to use multilevel modeling to quantify variability in distracted driving behavior in a naturalistic dataset of older drivers. The current study demonstrates the utility of examining within-person variability in a naturalistic driving dataset of 68 older drivers across two weeks. First, multilevel models were conducted for three distracted driving behaviors to distinguish within-person variability from between-person variability in these behaviors.
