ABSTRACT
The association of tylosis with esophageal cancer has been extensively reported but association with gastric cancer is rare. We report a 55-year-old man with familial tylosis and carcinoma of the stomach for which radical gastrectomy was done. Repeat endoscopy 3 years later is normal.

Hepatic resection for benign pathology is rare. We report our experience in two patients with hepaticolithiasis. One patient underwent left hemihepatectomy with removal of segments II, III and IV for localized Caroli's disease with multiple intrahepatic calculi. The second patient underwent resection of segment II and III with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy for right and left intrahepatic calculi with an abscess in the left lobe of the liver and a choledochal cyst.

Benefit of resection of metastatic lesions to the liver and lung from colonic cancer is well established. Resection of solitary metastasis or of locally recurrent malignancies in the periampullary region has now become the norm, as it increases survival. We present our experience with two patients with metastases in the periampullary region from previously treated colonic carcinoma who were treated with pancreaticoduodenectomy.
