Abstract

Meningioma is uncommonly found in extracranial. Extracranial meningioma can be extension from primary intracranial tumors that accompany osteolytic changes in the skull or causes bone destruction. In this article, we report about intracranial meningioma in the frontal region that extend to the sinonasal bone causes bone destruction and being predisposing factor for respiratory tract infection. A 47-years old female brought to the emergency department due to dyspnea and fever since a week ago and there was found a lump in the frontal region. During the surgical procedure, there was invasion of tumor and caused sinonasal bone destruction. The endotracheal tube (ETT) can be seen from the surgical field. In this case the patient was threated pneumonia infection, it can be related as complication of sinonasal bone destruction that caused by invasion of meningioma to extracranial manifestation. The clinical important that must be informed to the patient the possibility of recurrent respiratory tract infection incidents.

Abstract

Thoracic gunshot injuries are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, but fatal accidents from air guns are rare. Surgery in this area is challenging, especially if the gun pellet penetrates the visceral organ like the lung. In this case, we present a case of an 18-year-old male who came to the emergency department with an air gunshot (pellet) that penetrated the chest and settled in the lung base. After being shot by an air gun, the patient came with pain in the right back and weakness in both lower extremities. Based on the radiological examination, metallic corpus allienum measuring ± 0.8 x 0.7 cm has shown at the lung base as high as the Thoracic 12 vertebrae, 9.5 cm right lung laceration, right hemothorax, and emphysema subcutis on the right inferior side of hemithorax. The patient planned surgery to extract the corpus allienum through a lateral extra cavitary approach to expose the lungs at the level of the Th10-12 vertebrae. The lateral extra cavitary approach can be an alternative, less invasive method to extract foreign body lung base in front of vertebrae thoracic region.
