ABSTRACT
A large pedunculated, polypoid mass in the duodenum of a patient with asymptomatic anaemia, with mucosal biopsies indicating a villous adenoma, turned out to be a liposarcoma during laparotomy. The patient had had a completely resected retroperitoneal liposarcoma 8 years before. Liposarcoma recurrence should be highly suspected even in case of atypical presentation and long disease free interval.

ABSTRACT
A case of Wernicke's encephalopathy with pathological verification is reported. Results of computed tomography scanning performed one day after admission of the patient, a male alcoholic, strongly suggested Wernicke's encephalopathy and were in agreement with the subsequent postmortem findings.
