RESUMEN
Biliary-colonic fistula is a rare complication after hepatic resection. We present at a case of asymptomatic biliary-colonic fistula that developed 6 months after hepatectomy in a 73-year old female patient. She had been undergoing endoscopic treatment for a postoperative bile leakage, and the fistula was found by follow-up endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The fistula was formed between the right posterior segmental duct and the colon, and it was closed by colonoscopic clipping under fluoroscopic guidance. There was no recurrence at the 6-week follow-up ERCP.

Hepatoid carcinoma is extrahepatic neoplasm showing similar morphologic, immunohistochemical features with hepatocellular carcinoma. It's a very rare disease and has been reported most frequently in the stomach. Herein, we report a case of hepatoid carcinoma of pancreas presented with acute pancreatitis. The hepatoid carcinoma was diagnosed by his needle biopsy specimen and it showed pleomorphic nuclei and predominantly eosinophilic and occasionally clear cytoplasm in hematoxylin and eosin staining, and positive for HepPar-1 and cytokeratin 19 in immunohistochemical staining. Surgical treatment seems to be the best choice, if possible. However, there is no standard regimen for palliative chemotherapy. In our case, the patient was treated with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), folinic acid, irinotecan, oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX). The response was stable disease up to 4 month of follow up.

Most pancreatic pseudocysts are located in or around the pancreas, but they can be found in all the potential spaces around viscera in and outside of the abdominal cavity. The complications of pancreatic pseudocysts are infection, rupture, fistula, obstruction and hemorrhage. However, an upper gastrointestinal bleeding caused by pancreatic pseudocyst is rare. Pseudocysts with complication like hemorrhage require percutaneous, endoscopic or surgical treatment. We report a case of the pancreatic pseudocyst involving duodenal wall with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, which was improved by conservative treatment.
