A Rare Cause Of Pneumoperitoneum, Robert Zusman, George Michael, Anna E. Augustin, My Myers, Dudith Pierre-Victor

West Florida Division Virtual Research Day 2020

Pneumoperitoneum is most commonly associated with a perforated viscus. When free air is seen on imaging, the most common course of action is an emergent exploratory laparotomy. However, pneumoperitoneum may not always be indicative of a perforated bowel. In the case described below, we will discuss a patient who developed acute peritonitis and pneumoperitoneum after undergoing chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and positive pressure mechanical ventilation.


Bilateral Posterior Fracture-Dislocation Of The Proximal Humerus After First-Time Seizure, John D. Murphy, Phillip Braunlich, Mohit Bansal May 2020

Bilateral Posterior Fracture-Dislocation Of The Proximal Humerus After First-Time Seizure, John D. Murphy, Phillip Braunlich, Mohit Bansal

West Florida Division Virtual Research Day 2020

Fractures of the proximal humerus are commonly associated with osteoporosis and comprise 5.7% of all adult fractures [1]. Posterior dislocations of the shoulder comprise 2-5% of all shoulder dislocations, and when bilateral are even more infrequent, occurring less than 5%. [2,3]. Posterior dislocations are often associated with motor vehicle accidents, seizures, or electrical shock [4]. Fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus occur in only 1% of all shoulder dislocations, thus making posterior fracture-dislocations off the proximal humerus exceedingly rare [5]. In this case report, we present a previously undescribed case presentation and treatment for bilateral posterior fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus …
