Arterioenteric or arteriotracheal fistula is a known complication of an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) and is often associated with prolonged nasogastric or endotracheal intubation or oesophageal stenting. Fistula formation from the ARSA can present unexpectedly with rapid exsanguination with massive haemoptysis or haematemesis, and unless promptly recognised and treated is rapidly fatal. We present a novel endovascular method for treating a fistula between the oesophagus, trachea and an ARSA in an unstable patient following oesophageal stent removal, utilising a covered iliac limb stent, eliminating the need for an open surgical approach.The utility of serial Decipher biopsy scores in a true active surveillance population is still unknown. In a man on active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer, a doubling of the Decipher biopsy score within genomic low-risk category from first to the second biopsy related to biopsy reclassification to Gleason grade group 4 on the third biopsy. However, the final pathology at radical prostatectomy showed Gleason grade group 2 with an organ-confined disease. This case suggests that the genomic risk category of Decipher biopsy scores during active surveillance may be more informative than either the interval genomic score change or the biopsy Gleason grade group.We report the case of a 28-year-old male in rural Madagascar with iatrogenic hypotension induced by improper treatment of a normal grief response. The man lost both of his children in the spring of 2019 during a measles outbreak that infected at minimum 152,000 individuals on the island. After developing symptoms of chest pain, intermittent tachycardia, and widespread pain when he would think of his children in the weeks following their loss, he was prescribed gabapentin, lisinopril, and metoprolol by a general practice nurse. He subsequently developed dizziness, lightheadedness, and fatigue. After visiting Mada Clinics two weeks later, all medications were stopped, and the man's symptoms resolved. This case demonstrates the effects of a lack of available mental health care in Madagascar, a country with sixteen available psychiatrists for a rapidly expanding population of over 26 million people.Bacterial coinfection and COVID-19 have been reported in pediatric populations. We describe a case of Sydenham's chorea, which is exceedingly rare in developed countries, with concurrent COVID-19. Discussed here is the clinical course of an 8-year-old COVID-positive female with pure Sydenham's chorea and subclinical carditis from acute rheumatic fever. To our knowledge, there are no documented reports of acute rheumatic fever in a pediatric patient with coexisting COVID-19 infection.Kawasaki disease is a medium vessel vasculitis with a multisystem presentation affecting 9-20 per 100,000 children under 5 years of age in the United States. Salmonella coinfection has not been previously described. Sovilnesib We present a 12-month-old vaccinated male with Kawasaki disease in the setting of Salmonella bacteremia. Initial intervention for the Kawasaki disease with IVIG was ineffective, prompting adjunctive therapy with anakinra, with eventual full recovery. Concurrent Kawasaki disease and bacteremia may confound diagnosis and necessitate nontraditional treatment approaches.
Spinal angiomatous meningioma arising in the craniocervical junction has not been reported.
. A 68-year-old man presented to our hospital with pain in the back and left leg. He showed slight motor weakness in his upper extremities. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass with marked enhancement in the craniocervical junction. Computed tomography angiography showed feeding vessels arising from the right vertebral artery. Preoperative embolization of the feeding vessels was performed to reduce intraoperative bleeding. Gross total resection of the tumor was achieved by debulking and piecemeal resection. The tumor attachment to the dura mater was also resected (Simpson grade 1 resection). A histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an angiomatous meningioma. The patient's symptoms improved shortly after surgery.
We achieved gross total resection of spinal angiomatous meningioma arising in the craniocervical junction. A preoperative evaluation and embolization of the feeding arteries may help prevent massive intraoperative bleeding.

Although the recommended treatment for humeral shaft nonunion is compression plating with autologous bone grafting, we treated a case of humeral shaft nonunion with an intramedullary nail (IMN) without bone grafting.
. Osteosynthesis with IMN was performed on a 24-year-old man with a humeral shaft fracture at another hospital. However, bony union was not obtained 1 year after the first surgery, and he was referred to our institution. We treated the nonunion with exchange nailing without autologous bone grafting using compression function of the nail, leading to bony union at 7 months postoperatively. At the final follow-up 2 years and 4 months postoperatively, the patient had full range of motion in the left shoulder and elbow joints.
. Compression plating with autologous bone grafting is reported to be the gold standard for the treatment of humeral shaft nonunion. IMN is advantageous for minimal invasion; however, the conventional type of IMN cannot apply compression force between fragments and does not have sufficient stability against rotational force. In this case, we used an IMN that could apply compression between the fragments and which had rotational stability via many screws. We did not perform bone grafting because the current nonunion was adjudged to be biologically active, and we achieved good functional results.
We treated humeral shaft nonunion using IMN with compression, but without bone grafting, leading to successful clinical outcomes. This strategy might be an appropriate choice for the treatment of humeral shaft nonunion with biological activity.
