Tracheal stenosis is a rare complication of endotracheal intubation with serious sequelae. Its early manifestations can be mistakenly diagnosed as other pathology such as asthma or pneumonia. We report a case of a young lady with a history of endotracheal intubation, presenting with a history of noisy breathing for two months. Diagnosis of tracheal stenosis was made using flexible nasopharyngolaryngoscopy and neck radiograph. She was successfully treated by serial direct laryngoscopy and dilatation.

Diagnosing acute appendicitis in children can be difficult due to atypical presenting symptoms. While there are reported cases of acute appendicitis or appendiceal masses causing unilateral hydronephrosis, bilateral hydronephrosis as a complication of appendiceal mass is very rare. We report a case of a child who presented with cardinal symptomatology associated with the urogenital tract. Ultrasound (US) investigation showed a pelvic mass causing bilateral hydronephrosis. An initial diagnosis of a pelvic teratoma was made based on the US and computed tomography (CT) scan findings. The final diagnosis of an appendiceal mass causing bilateral hydronephrosis was established intraoperatively.
3.Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting as a uterine cervical mass.
Singapore medical journal 2008;49(3):e73-5
We report a 43-year-old woman who presented with post-coital bleeding. Pelvic examination revealed a uterine cervical mass, which confirmed to be large B cell lymphoma on histopathological examination. Computed tomography showed a primary lesion in the uterine cervix with no lymph node or other extranodal involvement. The patient responded to CHOP (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine and prednisolone) chemotherapy regime with no major side effects.
