JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Introduction Necrotizing Fasciitis (NF) is a devastating rapidly progressive bacterial infection involving the superficial fascia leading to necrosis of overlying skin and systemic toxicity [1,2]. We present a case of periorbital NF in a chronically malnourished and unwell patient following facial trauma. Case Report A 36-year-old female presented to the emergency department following a mechanical fall with extensive left facial bruising extending to the neck and chest wall. The patient featured a complex medical history including severe anorexia nervosa. Pathology revealed significant electrolyte derangement, hypothermia, osteoporosis, bone marrow suppression and synthetic hepatic impairment. A clinical diagnosis of NF was made 6 days into her ICU admission following the development of anaesthetic, necrotic-appearing skin associated with purulent exudates from the palpebral fissure and a

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Introduction Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a rare malignancy in Western countries but considered endemic in certain places such as southern China and Southeast Asia [1] In Malaysia, NPC is the fifth (4.9%) most common cancer among Malaysians and the third (8.1%) most common cancer among males [2]. Because of nasopharyngeal anatomical location, patients with locally advanced NPC, it is not infrequent that the primary tumor directly invades the intracranial sites such as cavernous sinus through the skull base. Distant metastases to Central Nervous System (CNS) either through hematogenous route or Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) spread are rare and dural metastasis at parietal region is even extremely rarer [3]. In this article, we report a rare of an elderly man with left parietal dural metastasis from NPC. Case Report A 65-year-old male was diagnosed with T2N1M0-Stage II NPC (American Join

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF HEAD NECK & SPINE SURGERY Abstract Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy is a common bile duct reconstruction operation, which has a good surgical effect, and has a low chance of bile leakage and bile duct stenosis. The main complications are bleeding, infection, anastomotic leakage and stress ulcer, but unclosed mesenteric foramen of small intestine after Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy is rare. Therefore, in this report, we reviewed a case of the clinical data, imaging findings, and surgical status of a patient with unclosed mesenteric foramen of small intestine of ten years after Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy and hope to provide a case reference for clinicians. Keywords: Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy Unclosed mesenteric foramen Surgery suture Introduction Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy has different complications in clinical [1,2], and it is rare to have a proximal unclosed mesenteric hiatus.
