Placement of the stent-graft was successful in all the cases, without any complications. Direct placement of a stent-graft was performed in all cases, which was dilated until extravasation was controlled. In the last 2 patients, the rupture was secondary to iliac artery mycotic aneurysm. In 5 patients, the rupture was iatrogenic: 4 cases were secondary to balloon angioplasty for iliac artery stenosis and 1 occurred during coronary angioplasty. The authors present 7 patients who suffered iliac artery rupture over a 2 year period. International Nuclear Information System (INIS)Ĭhatziioannou, A. To our knowledge, this is the only description of acute compartment syndrome due to muscle rupture in a non-athlete.Īcute Iliac Artery Rupture: Endovascular Treatment The case of acute compartment syndrome secondary to a gastrocnemius muscle tear of the right lower leg, in a non-athlete is reported. Herein, we report a case of ruptured retroperitoneal paraganglioma that presented as acute abdomen, and its subsequent management.Īcute compartment syndrome after muscle rupture in a non-athlete.Īcute compartment syndrome after muscle rupture, although rare, is a limb threatening condition, which warrants emergency treatment. Its clinical presentation and laparoscopic features have seldom been reported in the literature.

Herein, we report a case of ruptured retroperitoneal paraganglioma that presented as acute abdomen, and its subsequent management.ĭirectory of Open Access Journals (Sweden)įull Text Available Ruptured retroperitoneal paraganglioma is a rare cause of acute abdomen.

Ruptured retroperitoneal paraganglioma is a rare cause of acute abdomen.

Kwok-Kay Yau Wing-Tai Siu Michael Ka-Wah Li Unusual Cause of Acute Abdomenâ€” Ruptured Retroperitoneal Paraganglioma This case report underscores the importance of a complete physical examination and a high index of suspicion for additional concomitant injuries, particularly in athletes with unusually high stresses to the body.

At 24-month follow-up, the patient was pain free and had returned to full activity including weightlifting but had not returned to strongman competition.This is the first report of simultaneous acute full thickness ruptures of the rotator cuff and distal biceps tendon.

Distal biceps tendon repair was performed using the modified 2-incision muscle-splitting technique. Thirteen days after his injury, the patient underwent arthroscopic supraspinatus repair and proximal biceps tenodesis. Right elbow MRI showed a complete distal biceps tendon rupture. The long head of the biceps tendon had mild medial subluxation but was completely within the bicipital groove. There was minimal fatty infiltration of the supraspinatus on the sagittal cuts consistent with acute rupture. He had no known systemic risk factors for tendon ruptures including hyperparathyroidism, hemodialysis, alcoholism, rheumatoid arthritis, statin medications, fluoroquinolones, and steroid use.Right shoulder magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a full-thickness supraspinatus tear with 3 cm of retraction. A 38-year-old right-hand-dominant strongman competitor attempted a 300-pound overhead axle press and experienced immediate pain in the right shoulder and elbow. Simultaneous acute rotator cuff tear and distal biceps rupture in a strongman competitor.Īcute rotator cuff tear is commonly associated with tearing of the proximal biceps tendon, but has never been reported to occur simultaneously with a distal biceps tendon rupture.
