RESUMO
We report a colobronchial fistula in a middle-aged woman. She had been having cough with expectoration of sputum with a faeculent odour since the age of 7 years. Imaging revealed a fistulous connection between the hepatic flexure and the right bronchial tree, which was successfully repaired surgically.

A 15-year old female presented with a progressively increasingly right hypochondrial mass since 3 months. CECT abdomen showed a large well-defined, heterogeneous lesion with specks of calcification and areas of cystic degeneration in the region of head of pancreas. Successful enucleation of the tumour from the head of pancreas was achieved. Histopathology confirmed solid cystic papillary epithelial cystadenoma of pancreas.Papillary cystic and solid tumours of pancreas are a rare, low-grade malignant tumour, typically found in young women. The etiology and cell of origin of this tumour are still not clear. It is important to differentiate this tumour from other pancreatic tumours, as this tumour is amenable to cure after complete surgical resection.
