Isolated gallbladder rupture are rare injuries. We present a case of gallbladder traumatic rupture in a 47-year-old patient involved in a motor vehicle collision, that presented abdominal pain with maximal intensity in the right upper quadrant.CT is the imaging technique of choice to diagnosis this entity, however the final diagnosis of gallbladder rupture is confirmed with laparoscopy. Cholecystectomy is the definitive treatment.

We reported two cases of women who suffered from a rare case of pituitary apoplexy, rare and potentially fatal clinical condition due to a hemorrhagic infarction of the pituitary gland due to a pre-existing macroadenoma. The onset of symptoms is often insidious and includes generic symptoms such as headache, vomiting, and visual disturbances. In this case report we discuss the typical CT and MRI imaging features of this rare clinical condition in order to help radiologists in the timely diagnosis for a more rapid and correct diagnostic framing.

In Western European countries there is an incidence of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) of 16 to 19.4 new cases per million inhabitants per year. Since World War II, European physicians have been fundamental in the development of SCI medicine, starting from Sir Ludwig Guttman, who developed the idea of the integrated treatment of these patients. More recently, scientists from Germany and Switzerland have developed a new rehabilitative approach, Body Weight Support Treadmill Training, based on the concept of activity-based therapy and aimed at restoring walking in SCI patients. This review highlights issues concerning different organizational systems and health policies within and outside Europe.
