This document discusses three cases of acute abdominal conditions seen by a surgical gastroenterologist.
Case 1 involves a 55-year-old male with left lower quadrant pain and fever diagnosed with diverticulitis based on CT findings. The patient underwent left hemicolectomy with sigmoid resection and diverting loop ileostomy.
Case 2 describes a 53-year-old male with abdominal pain found to have an acute SMA thrombosis on CT angiography. The patient was treated conservatively with heparin and antibiotics.
Case 3 involves a 65-year-old cirrhotic male with SMV thrombosis found on CECT. The patient deteriorated clinically despite conservative management and required small bowel resection during

Many people have small pouches in the lining of the colon, or large
intestine, that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a
diverticulum. Multiple pouches are called diverticula.
Diverticula are most common in the lower portion of the large intestine,
called the sigmoid colon. When the pouches become inflamed, the
condition is called diverticulitis. Ten to 25 percent of people with
diverticulosis get diverticulitis.

DIVERTICULAR DISEASES-ASSOCIATED COLECTOMY IN URBAN AFRICAN AMERICAN PATIENTS: A HOSPITAL BASED STUDY. S. Ghavimi, H. Brim, H, Ashkorab. Dept. of Medicine and Cancer Center, Howard University Hospital, Washington, DC.
Diverticular Diseases (DD) are generally benign and are primarily detected as incidental finding during routine colonoscopies. However, in certain cases, DD might lead to colectomy.
Method: We reviewed 2400 patients’ files that correspond to DD patients seen at Howard University Hospital from1996 to 2014. Clinical and pathological features of patients that ended up having colectomy were analyzed in details.
Results: Among the 2400 DD cases, there were 59.8% females and 40.2%males, of which 2020 (60%) had diverticulosis while 380 (40%) had diverticulitis. Colectomy was performed in 174 (7.3%) patients of which 112 (64%) had Diverticulosis and 62 (36%) had Diverticulitis. Of the Diverticulosis/Colectomy patients, 92 (82%) had hemorrhage, of which 34 (40%) had massive GI bleeding. Of the Diverticulitis/Colectomy patients, only 14 (23%) had hemorrhage. From the 48 patients without hemorrhage, 31(65%) had recurrent diverticulitis and the remaining 17 (35%) fit the Hinechey Criteria with 5 cases at stage 1, 3 at stage 2, 5 at stage 3 and 4 at stage 4.
Conclusion: This study reveals that a sizable portion of African Americans with DD undergo colectomy due primarily to hemorrhage in diverticulosis patients. Such patients will benefit from periodical FOBT to catch potential massive bleeding at early stages. This applies to diverticulitis patients as well, however, in these patients, recurrence of diverticulitis is the primary indicator for colectomy.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

inability to differentiate between diverticulitis and
cancer
13. Exploration: findings
• Pyoperitoneum appx 50 cc
• Sigmoid and descending up to splenic flexure was
involved

15. In this patient
• Resection (Left extended Hemicolectomy with
sigmoid)
• Proximal colon wash with saline
• Colorectal anastomsis
• Diverting loop ileostomy
• Expected post op events and management?
16. Primary resection
• Associated with a shorter hospital stay

Conclusion
• Primary outcome did not differ
• Strong evidence favoring PA with protective ileostomy
over HP in the treatment of acute left-sided colonic
perforation with generalized peritonitis
• The benefits directly relate to the stoma reversal
operation, which is more likely to occur and safer in PA
• Further investigations are required to identify a group of
patients, which may potentially not require a diverting
ileostomy
