RESUMEN
Introduction: Nasopalatine duct cyst (NDC) is the most prevalent non-odontogenic cyst emerging from the epithelial remnants in the maxillary incisive canal. A sublabial or transpalatal approach is performed to enucleate NDC completely. More recently, transnasal endoscopic marsupialization has been used gradually. Case Presentation: A 24-year-old male patient with a large nasopalatine duct cyst with a diameter of 51 mm was managed by transnasal endoscopic marsupialization under general anesthesia. The presentation involves painless swelling around the left side of the anterior maxilla and bulging of the hard palate. No postoperative complications were observed after a 3-month follow-up. Transnasal endoscopic marsupialization is a minimally invasive surgery for large NDC. Clinical discussion: Approximately 1% of the population has a nasopalatine duct cyst. Surgical treatment was carried out under general anesthesia; the cyst was dissected and removed using a typically transnasal endoscopic marsupialization technique. Conclusion: The cause of the NDC is unclear. Simple surgical resection and clinical and radiological control are recommended to ensure the case is resolved correctly.
RESUMEN
In children, one of the most common surgical procedures worldwide is circumcision, which has strong religious implications and is frequently performed for nontherapeutic reasons. Circumcision is typically associated with old customs. Complete penile amputation is extremely uncommon, and the prognosis is little understood. Case Presentation: A 7-day-old male term baby was circumcised with a cauter by an unexperienced practitioner, and the patient was admitted to the department of pediatric surgery. Both the glans and the body had become discolored and necrotic. The patient was taken into the theater and given general anesthesia. The authors removed the debridement and inserted a catheter into the urethra to prevent urethral stenosis. Discussion: The procedure of circumcision has several medical benefits and is widely performed for religious, cultural, and medical reasons. It is generally agreed that circumcision prevents against sexually transmitted diseases, penile and cervical cancer in adults, as well as urinary tract infections in children.Partial or complete penile amputation injuries are rare and frequently the result of psychotic self-harm. Operators must correctly conduct the circumcision in order to prevent the potential complications that can happen when the procedure is performed out by untrained hands.The most common cause of penile amputation injuries, whether partial or total, is psychotic self-harm. Operators must carry out the procedure carefully to prevent the potential complications that can happen when circumcision is performed by untrained hands. Conclusion: The authors present here a case of a 7-day-old boy who had ritual circumcision with a cauter complicated by an entire penile amputation, which was treated with the insertion of a catheter to prevent the closure of the urethra. The patient reported his penis was circumcised with cautery one day later the glans and the entire penis became discolored and necrosis, unfortunately, the entire penis was lost with the overlying skin.
RESUMEN
Introduction and Importance: Traditional circumcisions may cause complications such as hemorrhage, infection, amputations of the penis, meatal stenosis, and urethro-cutaneous fistula. In addition to all these complications, iatrogenic hypospadias, as in our case, is a rare condition. In general, complications are mild and preventable, especially in children, but when the procedure is carried out by unskilled providers, in unsterile conditions, or with inadequate equipment and supplies, severe complications are more likely to occur. Several degrees of urethral erosion, including iatrogenic hypospadias, might result from further injury. Particularly in intensive care facilities, the ventral male urethra can undergo this kind of trauma. Case presentation: A 4-year-old child was circumcised at the age of 3 years, and after that, he bled profusely. His parents brought him to the hospital after 4 months. On physical examination of the patient, the glans was normal but there was an opening near the glans in the distal urethra at the subcoronal level. After the pre-operative check-up, the patient was prepared for elective surgery. An incision and dissection were performed to reveal the fistula tract all around by placing marker sutures from the edges of the fistula. The fistula opening was repaired with 6/0 PDS (polydioxanone) and a second layer was created over the urethral fistula repair, and then the skin was closed with 4/0 Vicryl (polyglactin). Clinical discussion: Around the world, circumcision continues to be the most common procedure done on children. Injuries to the penis may actually happen with a 1% complication incidence. A poorly placed suture at the frenulum in an effort to achieve hemostasis is the most frequent cause of the fistula. This causes strangulation and necrosis of a portion of the urethral wall, which leads to the creation of a sub glandular fistula. It is important to properly identify and treat any life-threatening injuries to the urethra as soon as possible. Conclusion: Considered a medical procedure that necessitates great care, circumcision should only be carried out by qualified surgeons under sterile hospital circumstances. Most circumcision-related injuries result from clamp circumcisions (such as Mogen or Gomco), and they can range from minor loss of penile skin to more serious glans, distal urethral, and penile shaft injuries.
