Perforation peritonitis is an important cause of generalized peritonitis and pneumoperitoneum. Large bowel perforation due to swallowed artificial denture is extremely rare. Foreign body can be ingested accidentally or in a suicidal attempt. However, ingested foreign body causing sigmoid colon perforation is extremely rare. Complications caused by ingestion of foreign body in gastrointestinal tract include obstruction, perforation, bleeding, or impaction at the sites of physiological narrowing or acute angulation in gastrointestinal tract. We hereby report a case of sigmoid colon perforation due to swallowed partial denture.

Eumycetoma (“mycotic mycetoma”) is a chronic subcutaneous fungal infection of the skin and soft tissue, most often affecting the lower extremity (typically a single foot). Eumycetomas are usually confined to subcutaneous tissues but can involve fascia, bone, and regional lymph nodes via contiguous dissemination. We hereby report a case mycetoma of gluteal region, an unusual site of presentation.

<p>Colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie’s syndrome) is a functional disorder in which the colon becomes massively dilated in the absence of mechanical obstruction. Pseudoobstruction most commonly occurs in hospitalized patients and is associated with the use of narcotics, bed rest, and comorbid disease. Pseudoobstruction is thought to result from autonomic dysfunction and severe adynamic ileus. The diagnosis is made based on the presence of massive dilatation of the colon (usually predominantly the right and transverse colon) in the absence of a mechanical obstruction.</p>
