Abstract

Background: Meningiomas, common primary brain neoplasms, become more frequent with age. They can affect osseous structures, manifesting as hyperostosis and significantly diminishing the well-being of patients. Although meningiomas' precise etiology and pathogenesis remain ambiguous, hormonal influences and other factors have been implicated in their development. This study seeks to explain surgical management and cranioplasty reconstruction to reduce recurrence and improve the well-being of patients.Objective: This case series encompasses a retrospective analysis of medical records from six patients diagnosed with meningiomas with hyperostosis, treated between December 2022 and January 2024, at Dr. Soegiri General Hospital, Lamongan. The analysis focuses on surgical interventions and cranioplasty reconstruction.Cases Presentation: Six patients had chronic cephalgia and cranial masses persisting for 3-6 years. Computed tomography imaging revealed hyperostotic changes contiguous with the neoplastic lesions, prompting craniotomy. Subsequent acrylic cranioplasty was undertaken to ensure encephalic protection and to achieve cosmetic restoration.Conclusion: For patients presenting with meningiomas and hyperostosis, symptomatic management through surgical excision and resection of the hyperostotic bone is recommended. Early implementation of cranioplasty, preferably acrylic materials, is recommended to shield cerebral structures and restore cranial morphology, given its economic feasibility and reduced infection risk compared to autologous bone grafts

Abstract

Background: Uterus didelphys is one of the rarest anomalies from Mullery duct fusion failure. Generally, the condition is asymptomatic or can be manifest clinically as dyspareunia and/or menstrual pain, making early diagnosis challenging. Although this condition can affect fertility and risk of complications in pregnancy, in practice, the diagnosis is infrequent with the minimum awareness about the conditions.Objective: This case report aims to outline the diagnostic methods and intervention actions carried out in a patient who diagnosed uterus didelphys after failed normal delivery.Case Presentation: This paper presents a case of a 21-year-old woman who came with a complaint of tightness in the womb in two days before entering the hospital. The results of the anamnesis and physical examination show the needed of Cito LSCS surgery. During Cito LSCS, a uterus, an ovary, and a fallopian tube were found as a pair, with a fetus in the right uterus weighing 2100 g. Rehydration, antibiotic, analgetic, and laxative was given post-operative. After 3 days, patient was discharged.Conclusion: Examinations and new diagnostic methods need to be developed to identify the presence of uterus didelphys and to prevent its potential complications.
