RESUMEN
We report our experience with endoscopic management of 3 men (aged 62, 63 and 65 years) with duodenal diaphragm disease following NSAID use for 5-15 years. In the first patient a 24 F through-the-scope balloon dilatation was attempted but failed; he subsequently underwent gastro-jejunostomy. The other two patients subsequently underwent radial incisions of the web with mixed cutting and coagulation current using a standard 5 F sphincterotome.

With the advent of magnetic resonance imaging, brain lesions associated with Japanese encephalitis are increasingly being recognized and correlated with movement disorder. Bilateral haemorrhagic thalamic infarcts on MRI, suggested as a characteristic finding in Japanese encephalitis were conspicuous by their absence in this case report of Japanese encephalitis.
