Acute hepatitis A infection is usually a self-limiting disease and mostly asymptomatic in children younger than six years old.

Intra-articular Pulsed Mode Radiofrequency for Hip Pain: Inoperable Coxarthrosis Case

Issue: 
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2013.130
Pages: 
526–7
 

INTRODUCTION

Hip arthroplasty is one of the most common surgical procedures for pain relief due to coxarthrosis. However, the operation is contraindicated for some elderly patients because of multiple co-morbidities. On the other hand, conventional drugs have either too many side effects or are ineffective. Major symptoms of patients with hip pain include groin, thigh and trochanteric pain.

Penoplasty--Not Circumcision--for Buried Penis

Issue: 
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2013.127
Pages: 
541–4

INTRODUCTION

Buried or concealed penis is an uncommon condition in which the penile shaft is partially or completely obscured by preputial skin. In the majority of cases, it is congenital. Many patients are ill-advisedly referred for circumcision, a procedure which can compromise future repair and cosmetic outcome. We report on the management and outcome of two boys with congenital buried penis, one of whom was initially referred to the authors for circumcision.

Primary Intestinal-type Adenocarcinoma of the Nasal Cavity: A Case Report

Issue: 
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2013.220
Pages: 
678–80

ABSTRACT

We report a rare case of sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinoma in the nasal cavity. A 31-year old man presented with headache and epistaxis. We identified a malignant tumour, which is a rare pathology, with detailed physical examination, anterior rhinoscopy, computed tomography scan, magnetic resonance imaging and histopathologic examination. Endoscopic excision of the tumour was performed. After three years of follow-up of the patient in our clinic, there was no sign of any recurrence.
