Résumé
Hepatosplenic tuberculosis (HST), rarely encountered in surgical practice, is seen in-patients with disseminated tuberculosis. A 20-year-old female presenting with pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) was subsequently diagnosed to have lymph-nodal tuberculosis with involvement of liver and spleen. Despite anti-tuberculosis treatment (ATT) for 3 months, clinical improvement did not occur and fever persisted. Laparoscopic splenectomy and drainage of the hepatic cold abscess were done with favorable results. Smear for acid fast bacilli (AFB), culture for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and histopathological examination (HPE) established the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB).

Biliary cystadenocarcinoma (BCAC) is a rare cystic tumour of the liver; with its benign counterpart, it accounts for <5% of non-parasitic hepatic cysts. Preoperative diagnosis of BCAC is difficult; complete surgical excision is recommended to prevent recurrence or metastasis. We present the case of a 67-year-female with centrally located BCAC involving the right hepatic duct and distorting the hepatic hilum. This report highlights the difficulties in diagnosis, surgical resection, subsequent biliary reconstruction and its outcome.

We report a 42-year-old man who developed coloduodenal fistula secondary to hepatic flexure tuberculosis. Initially, feeding jejunostomy and ileostomy were done; subsequently, after antitubercular therapy, right hemicolectomy and excision of the fistula with a sleeve of duodenal wall was performed.

We report the occurrence of inadvertent injury to the intra-pancreatic common bile duct in 3 of 9 patients undergoing Frey's procedure for chronic pancreatitis with inflammatory mass in the head. In one case, the choledochotomy was extended and anastomosed to the cored-out parenchyma. In the other two, after lateral pancreatico-jejunostomy, hepatico-jejunostomy was performed using the same Roux loop.
