Hepatic Artery Aneurysm Causing Biliary Compression.

Hepatic artery aneurysms (HAAs) are rare, accounting for approximately 14%-20% of visceral artery aneurysms. Most HAAs do not display any symptoms, but they may potentially lead to complications, as in the case of our patient who presented with an HAA compressing the common bile duct, detected through contrast-enhanced endoscopy. There are no specific treatment recommendations for HAAs due to their rarity. However, it is advisable to treat HAAs, even if they are asymptomatic, due to the risk of complications through surgical or radiological means. Our patient was treated with radiological embolization along with endoscopic biliary calibration.

Primary rectal adenocarcinoma with musculoskeletal metastasis as the only metastasis site: A case report with a short literature review.

Rectal carcinoma with metastasis to skeletal muscle is a rare occurrence. Since 1970, only 30 cases of skeletal muscle metastasis originating from colorectal adenocarcinomas have been documented, underscoring its exceptionally low incidence. Here, we present the case of a middle-aged man who was diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma 3 months ago. During examination, a subcutaneous mass was discovered in the left proximal buttock. Histological analysis of a biopsy confirmed that this mass was a metastatic lesion originating from the primary rectal adenocarcinoma.
