Bladder rupture is a very morbid injury following blunt or penetrating lower abdominal trauma. Prompt diagnosis is crucial to initiate optimal treatment. Intraperitoneal bladder rupture is associated with haematuria and biochemical features of renal failure.
Cystogram is diagnostic. Immediate open surgical repair is the main stay of treatment. A case of intraperitoneal rupture diagnosed preoperatively by the presence of haematuria and pseudorenal failure is presented to highlight the association of posttraumatic
haematuria and pseudorenal failure in such injuries.

itus inversus totalis is a rare congenital entity characterized by right-to-left transposition of the viscera of the thorax and abdomen. We present the case of a 58-year-old female patient with a history of cholecystectomy 18 years ago, when a diagnosis of situs inversus was made, who presented to the emergency department with obstructive jaundice. With the surgical history and prior knowledge of her condition, an imaging approach and successful endoscopic treatment was performed. Cholelithiasis and situs inversus are a rare combination of entities; this binomial reminds us that in medicine there are no absolute concepts.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

▪ This ongoing abdominal imaging interpretation series is proudly co-
sponsored by the Emergency Medicine & Surgery Residency Programs at
Carolinas Medical Center.
▪ The goal is to promote widespread interpretation mastery.
▪ There is no personal health information [PHI] within, and ages have been
changed to protect patient confidentiality.
4. Systematic Approach to Abdominal CT Interpretation
● Aorta Down - follow the flow of blood!
○ Thoracic Aorta → Abdominal Aorta → Bifurcation → Iliac a.
● Veins Up - again, follow the flow!
○ Femoral v. → IVC → Right Atrium
● Solid Organs Down
○ Heart → Spleen → Pancreas → Liver → Gallbladder → Adrenal →
Kidney/Ureters → Bladder
● Rectum Up
○ Rectum → Sigmoid → Transverse → Cecum → Appendix
● Esophagus Down
○ Esophagus → Stomach → Small bowel

Causative Organisms
U.S.: E. coli (most common), Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Proteus. Strep/Staph (hematogenous).
Worldwide: the pathogen profile of liver abscess is highly variable by region.
12. Back To Our Patient
• The abscesses were felt to be due to an ascending biliary infection in the
setting of severe pancreatitis requiring debridement
• The patient was resuscitated with fluids and vasopressors and empirically
treated with piperacillin-tazobactam.
• Blood cultures were positive for Streptococcus constellatus and antibiotics
were transitioned to ampicillin-sulbactam.
• Because the abscesses were not technically amenable to CT-guided
percutaneous drainage she underwent surgical drainage.
• The patient was discharge after a 2-week hospitalization on oral ampicillin-
sulbactam.

16. Bladder Rupture
Most cases of bladder rupture are caused by direct pelvic or abdominal
injury, occurring in 1-2% of blunt trauma patients.
Physical exam findings:
• Abdominal and pelvic pain, difficulty voiding
• 75-100% of patients have gross hematuria
Extraperitoneal 60%
Intraperitoneal 30%
Both 10%
17. Extraperitoneal Rupture
Extraperitoneal ruptures are often
associated with pelvic fractures and
are due to compressive forces causing
rupture, burst injury, sudden shearing
forces or from direct penetration by
bony fragments.
CT cystography typically shows
extravasation of contrast confined to
the peri- and pre-vesicular space but
complex injuries have shown contrast
material extending to the thigh,
scrotum/labia, penis, perineum or
anterior abdominal wall.
Management: uncomplicated cases
are typically managed with Foley
catheter drainage for 2-3 weeks.
18. Intraperitoneal ruptures typically
occur at the dome of the bladder
where it is the weakest, least
supported and meets the peritoneum.
Occurs when a full bladder is
subjected to compressive forces to
the lower abdomen.
CT cystography will show
accumulation of contrast material
within the peritoneal cavity outlining
loops of bowel and filling paracolic
gutters, subphrenic spaces and the
pouch of Douglas.
Management: surgical repair with
post-operative Foley catheter
drainage.
Intraperitoneal Rupture
19. Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery 2019; 86:326-336.
1 CT cystography is the diagnostic study of choice for blunt trauma patients who are at
moderate risk (e.g.: gross hematuria) or high risk (e.g.: gross hematuria + pelvic fracture)
for bladder rupture.
2 Operative management is recommended for intraperitoneal bladder rupture.
3 Non-operative management is recommended for the management of simple1
extraperitoneal bladder rupture and operative management is recommended for complex
cases extraperitoneal bladder rupture cases.
1A “simple” extraperitoneal bladder rupture is defined as a single full-thickness tear in the bladder wall with
extravasation into the extraperitoneal space. All other more significant injuries are defined as “complex.”
21. Performing Retrograde Cystography
• To adequate identify contrast extravasation, it it critical that the
bladder be adequately distended.
• For both ”traditional” and CT cystography, contrast should be instilled
into the bladder retrograde.
Adult & Children >11 Years 300-400 cc
Children 1-11 years 30 cc/kg
Children <1 year 10-20 cc/kg
Procedure
1. Place the Foley
2. Instill contrast by gravity
3. Clamp the Foley
4. Obtain images
5. Post-void images1
1When performing a traditional retrograde cystogram it is important to drain the bladder
and obtain a post-void view to identify potential contrast extravasation behind the bladder.

35. Sigmoid Volvulus
Presentation:
• The colon twists around the
mesenteric root causing the bowel to
fold onto itself, create a closed loop
obstruction and vascular compromise.
• Symptoms:
• Nausea, vomiting
• Abdominal distension
• Obstipation
• Sigmoid volvulus more common than
cecal volvulus
• Risk factors
• Advanced age
• Redundant, mobile colon
• The differential would include a colonic
mass causing obstruction
Diagnosis:
• Clinical picture
• KUB will show colonic dilatation
• Coffee Bean Sign – medial walls of the
bowel fold next to each other and make
the crease in the coffee bean
• Inverted U Sign – a haustral dilated bowel
in the shape of upside-down U, specific to
sigmoid volvulus
• Bird Beak Sign – smooth tapering of colon
down to the obstruction
• Northern Exposure Sign – sigmoid extends
above the transverse colon
• CT imaging will better identify the
specific point of obstruction
• Transition point + lack of rectal gas
• Water soluble enema

43. Management of Sigmoid Volvulus
• No intervention leads to bowel ischemia
and necrosis.
• Surgery is definitive treatment but is it
elective or emergent?
Endoscopic Management
If no peritonitis or signs of bowel ischemia are present,
attempt endoscopic detorsion prior to surgery:
1. Consult GI, can be attempted 1-2 times
2. Colonoscopic insufflation often untwists the bowel
3. Leave a rectal tube in place until the patient is stable.
Surgical Management
Endoscopy successful: elective sigmoid colectomy with
anastomosis vs. Hartman procedure to prevent recurrence.
Endoscopy unsuccessful: rectosigmoid resection with end
colostomy.
45. Back To Our Patient
• The patient underwent successful colonoscopic detorsion confirmed by
plain film imaging (KUB).
• Due to patient’s age and comorbidities, the patient and family decided
to observe following decompression.
• If he were younger and healthier, we would have performed an elective
sigmoid resection with anastomosis during the index admission due to
the high risk of recurrence.
