A Tiny Pacemaker Flipped Upside Down Inside a Man's Heart, and It Took Two Snares to Pull It Out (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A week after doctors placed a new leadless pacemaker in the upper chamber of a 64-year-old man's heart, follow-up imaging showed it had broken loose. The capsule-shaped device had flipped and moved into his right ventricle, and his heart was no longer being paced from the atrium. Cardiologists at National Taiwan University Hospital in Taipei described how they got it out in a case report in JACC: Case Reports that appeared in the journal's Sept. 2 issue. One wire snare was not enough. It took a
Surgeons Removed a Woman's Bleeding Kidney Because Cancer Couldn't Be Ruled Out, but Pathology Found an Old Clot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Surgeons in Mexico removed a 52-year-old woman's right kidney after finding more than half a liter of blood collected around it. One of their reasons was that a tumor could not be ruled out before the operation. When pathologists examined the organ, they found no cancer. Instead, they saw an organized blood clot and signs of both older and newer injury to the kidney. The case, published Sept. 20 in the Journal of Surgical Case Reports by doctors at Hospital General de Tlaxcala, describes Wünderl
A Bump on a Man's Penis Defied Several Rounds of Antibiotics, and a Buried Hair Was Behind It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A 22-year-old man in Italy had a penile bump that kept growing and stayed inflamed, even after several courses of antibiotics. When surgeons finally removed it, the cause turned out to be hair that had worked its way into his skin and set off a chronic inflammatory reaction. The diagnosis was a pilonidal sinus, a condition usually found in the cleft between the buttocks. Doctors at San Carlo di Nancy Hospital in Rome described the case in a report in the Journal of Surgical Case Reports publishe
Floating Cartilage Nodules in a 35-Year-Old's Knee Looked So Much Like Boba Pearls That Doctors Named a Sign After Them (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A 35-year-old woman had spent two years with a worsening left knee. It hurt, it swelled, it clicked, and it sometimes locked. When doctors looked at her MRI, they saw something that reminded them of a popular drink: many round, uniform nodules suspended in fluid, like tapioca pearls in bubble tea. Orthopedic surgeons at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in Raipur described the case in the Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports in August 2026 and proposed a name for the appearance: the "Bo
An Anxious Woman's Pacing and Hand-Wringing Lit Up Her PET Scan in a Wonder Woman Pattern (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A 40-year-old woman waiting for a PET/CT scan was anxious. While the radioactive tracer circulated through her body, she walked around and wrung her hands. When the images came back, her forearms, hands, lower legs, and feet were glowing, as if she were wearing bright cuffs and boots. Nuclear medicine specialists at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi published the image this spring in the Indian Journal of Nuclear Medicine under the title "The Fruit of Labour: 'Wond
