Unusual presentation of psoas abscess _a caseREKHAKHARE
A 37-year-old male painter presented with a painful lump in his left flank for two months with fever and general weakness. Examination found a tender lump in his left renal area without hip flexion deformity. Tests showed elevated white blood cells and C-reactive protein. Ultrasound found a thick-walled mass in the left renal area not connected to the kidney. CT scan later revealed a bulky left psoas muscle with an abscess extending into the abdominal wall and paraspinal region, displacing the left bowels medially. Surgical drainage was performed and antibiotics started. Microbiology later found the abscess was tuberculosis, so antitubercular treatment was added.
Septicarthritis (inflammation of the joint)Hardi Hussein
A 40-year-old diabetic patient presented to the emergency department with acutely painful swelling of the right knee for 2 days. On examination, there was mild fever, tenderness over the joint, and restricted passive and active movement of the joint. The patient is likely suffering from septic arthritis, an infection and inflammation of the synovial joint caused by bacteria or other microbes. Blood tests and joint fluid analysis are needed to confirm the diagnosis and identify the causative organism. Treatment involves antibiotics, surgical drainage if needed, and immobilization of the joint. Without prompt treatment, septic arthritis can lead to permanent joint damage and disability.

Otosclerosis is a hereditary disease characterized by abnormal bone growth in the middle ear that fixes the stapes bone. It causes conductive or mixed hearing loss. Symptoms include progressive deafness and sometimes tinnitus or vertigo. Diagnosis involves audiometry showing low frequency hearing loss and a Carhart's notch. Treatment options include hearing aids, medical management with sodium fluoride in some cases, and surgery to remove or bypass the stapedius bone via stapedotomy or stapedectomy. The goal of surgery is to improve hearing by restoring sound transmission through the middle ear.

distal aspect of the left hallux
8. SURGERY
Total hallux nail avulsion performed in
the OR
Through the use of c-arm imaging, the
mass was identified and removed
utilizing a #15 blade and sagittal saw
The surgical site was reapproximated
utilizing 3-0 monocryl and dressed with
bacitracin, 4x4 gauze and kling as well as
a light ace bandage for compression
9. PATHOLOGY
• The mass removed had the appearance of a digit
with complete nail bed , representing a possible
supernumerary digit.
• The specimen was sent to pathology for
further evaluation.
10. PATHOLOGY
REPORT
• A) Nail, left foot, big toe revealing keratinizing squamous
epithelium and nail plate with focal bacterial cocci
• B) bone, left foot, big toe excision:
• Trabecular bone with overlying fibroconnective tissue and
skin with reactive changes
• Comment: in part A, pas-d stain is negative for fungal
organisms
• In part B histologic examination demonstrates a
polypoid/protuberant fragment of trabecular bone
• Conclusion: Represents a
supernumerary digit, particularly if
it was present from birth.
11. WHAT IS A
SUPERNUMERARY
DIGIT?
• Greek poly (many)
and dactylos (finger)
• A supernumerary digit, or
polydactyly, is a congenital anomaly
affecting the upper or lower
extremities and is typically identified
immediately after birth. Polydactyly is
the most common congenital
anomaly of the hand and foot, where
affected individuals typically exhibit
excessive fingers or toes, exceeding
the usual count of 5
12. CONCLUSION
• Definitive diagnosis sometimes cannot be given
without final pathology report. In this case, we
suspected that it was a subungual exostosis, but
it turned out to be a supernumerary digit that
the patient had since birth
