RESUMO
Wilkie's syndrome is a rare variant of small intestinal obstruction resulting from compression of third part of the duodenum by the superior mesenteric artery. A girl 15 years of age, presented with postprandial abdominal pain, bilious vomiting and weight loss. Radiological imaging revealed vascular duodenal compression which was relieved by timely surgical intervention

Neuroendocrine tumours [NETS] are rare tumours. The commonest site of occurrence is the gastrointestinal tract. NETS in the breast are even rarer, accounting for less than 0.1% of all breast cancers and less than 1% of all NETS. We are reporting a case of primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast in a 60 years old female. Investigations were done to rule out any other associated lesion. Patient was treated by modified radical mastectomy and adjuvant chemo and radiotherapy
RESUMO
Gastric Outlet Obstruction [GOO] due to impaction of a gallstone in the duodenum after migration through a bilioduodenal fistula is known as Bouveret's syndrome. Its clinical symptoms are entirely vague and nonspecific. Because of its rarity, insidiousness and unpredictable symptomatology, Bouveret's syndrome is never thought of in the differential diagnosis as aetiology of gastric outlet obstruction. Recent advances in fiberoptics technology, advent of modern imaging modalities and minimally-invasive techniques like endoscopy and laparoscopy has brought a great revolution in the management of Bouveret's syndrome and have tremendously decreased morbidity and mortality associated with this rare clinical entity

Hypertrophic pyloroduodenal tuberculosis is a rare cause of Gastric Outlet Obstruction [GOO] often forgotten in the differential diagnosis of gastric outlet obstruction. Since laboratory and radiological investigations often prove inconclusive in reaching the diagnosis of hypertrophic pyloroduodenal tuberculosis, surgery has a key role in the management of hypertrophic pyloroduodenal tuberculosis. Postoperative anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy [ATT] becomes imperative for complete resolution of hypertrophic pyloroduodenal tuberculosis. This case report describes the condition and management in a young girl
