RESUMEN

Biliary tract shows a large number of anatomic variations and duplication of the gallbladder (GB) is a rare congenital anomaly. Although it is very often detected incidentally, it may present with complications due to gall stone disease. Careful identification of this anomaly on imaging is important to prevent any serious surgical complications. We here report a case of duplicated GB in a 26-year-old male, who presented with right hypochondriac pain and detected to have two GB on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

RESUMEN

Hemangioma is the most common benign tumor of liver and is often asymptomatic. Spontaneous rupture is rare but has a catastrophic outcome if not promptly managed. Emergent hepatic resection has been the treatment of choice but has high operative mortality. Preoperative transcatheter arterial embolization [TAE] can significantly improve outcome in such patients. We report a case of spontaneous rupture of giant hepatic hemangioma that presented with abdominal pain and shock due to hemoperitoneum. Patient was successfully managed by TAE, followed by tumor resection. TAE is an effective procedure in symptomatic hemangiomas, and should be considered in such high risk patients prior to surgery

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: To improve the survival rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in whom surgery is not possible, various methods have been developed employing angiographic and percutaneous techniques. We analyzed our experience with various percutaneous therapeutic interventional techniques done for HCC in our center. METHODS: Sixty-one patients with inoperable HCC (mean age 48.9 [SD 13.8] y; 47 men) were treated between January 1997 and December 2000 by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) alone (22), TACE with percutaneous alcohol injection (PEI) (20), transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with steel coils and gel foam for gastrointestinal bleed (7), percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (1), percutaneous preoperative right portal vein embolization (3) and percutaneous preoperative tumor embolization to reduce blood loss at surgery (8). RESULTS: In 42 patients treated by TACE and PEI and TACE alone, tumor necrosis was scored; over 50% necrosis was seen only after six and nine months in both treatment groups. The survival rates after six and nine months and the median survival were similar in the two groups. Of 7 cases treated with TAE with steel coils and gel foam, the gastrointestinal bleeding stopped in four; in the other three, bleeding did not stop completely although less transfusion was required. In the patient treated by radiofrequency ablation, follow-up contrast-enhanced CT did not show enhancing tumor mass. We noted left lobe enlargement after percutaneous preoperative right portal vein embolization, prior to right hepatectomy. CONCLUSION: In patients with HCC not amenable to surgical intervention, a variety of percutaneous therapeutic interventional techniques may be used.

RESUMEN

We studied 50 cases of complicated falciparum malaria in order to evaluate the different clinical presentations. Thirty five had cerebral malaria while 15 presented with extracerebral features including diarrhea and vomiting (n = 6), hepatitis (n = 4), acute renal failure (n = 3), and gastrointestinal bleeding (n = 2). These cases were treated with quinine. Mortality was higher in extracerebral form (33.3%) as compared to cerebral malaria (22%). Our study suggests that even though cerebral malaria remains the single most important cause of high mortality in complicated falciparum malaria, extracerebral presentation of falciparum malaria is equally life threatening and should be viewed seriously.
