    <jats:p>El balón intragástrico es una opción no quirúrgica para la pérdida de peso, sin embargo, existen complicaciones que pueden ser leves, como náuseas y dolor epigástrico, o graves, incluyendo perforación gástrica, obstrucción intestinal y pancreatitis. Factores de riesgo, como cirugías gástricas previas, uso prolongado del balón e incluso el no utilizar inhibidores de bomba de protones, aumentan la probabilidad de complicaciones serias. El diagnóstico temprano es fundamental y la tomografía computada es una herramienta muy útil para hacerlo. El pronóstico varía según la presencia de infecciones y comorbilidades. La experiencia médica y el seguimiento del paciente son clave para minimizar riesgos.Esta revisión narrativa se fundamenta en la literatura científica que encontramos sobre las complicaciones del balón gástrico como tratamiento para el control del peso. Para ilustrar las diversas manifestaciones clínicas y hallazgos imagenológicos documentados, se presentan imágenes de casos observados en nuestra institución que evidencian dichas complicaciones.</jats:p>

    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec> <jats:title>Background</jats:title> <jats:p>An intraluminal duodenal diverticulum (IDD) is an infrequent abnormality consisting of a sac-like projection within the duodenum secondary to a congenital web of the membrane in the second portion of the duodenum near the papilla of Vater, due to incomplete lumen recanalization of the embryological foregut, with a typical imaging appearance of a “windsock.”</jats:p> <jats:p>The purpose is to present the radiological and tomographic findings characteristics of “IDD.”</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Results</jats:title> <jats:p>The IDD in barium upper gastrointestinal imaging and computed tomography (CT) was presented. On upper barium gastrointestinal examination, it is possible to detect an intraluminal duodenal image, that can be distended with gas or barium contrast and delimited by a thin wall (halo sign), mimicking a windsock or a double lumen. On CT, it is possible to identify a windsock sign on the duodenum, most often on the second part, distended by gas and contrast agent.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title> <jats:p>IDD imaging in barium upper gastrointestinal imaging and CT is pathognomonic of this infrequent entity in adults that needs to be recognized by the radiologist. In our small series, IDD images of the windsock sign on barium studies and the characteristic presentation on CT can help to exclude another duodenal conditions, guiding appropriate management.</jats:p> </jats:sec>

    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec> <jats:title>Background</jats:title> <jats:p>Lingual abscess corresponds to an infection that manifests itself as a painful swelling in the tongue with purulent material inside. This is a rare entity and the information available in the literature is limited and based on clinical case reports. Therefore, the diagnosis, etiology, clinical manifestations, and treatment are not fully defined.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Case presentation</jats:title> <jats:p>The aim of this work was to describe the imaging of a case of lingual abscess, focusing on imaging evaluation using ultrasound and computed tomography (CT), and comparing the diagnostic utility of both modalities in smaller lingual abscesses. This case was treated with antibiotics and adequate drainage was performed, with good evolution.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title> <jats:p>Tongue abscess is a rare pathology due to the various mechanisms that the tongue has to avoid infections; however, it is a diagnosis that we must consider. CT may be sufficient to diagnose it on imaging, but in smaller lesions, ultrasound with a high-frequency transducer provides more information.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
