Exfoliative erythroderma as a paraneoplastic presentation of adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder.

We report a case of a 71-year-old Caucasian male presenting with an exfoliative skin rash all over his body. The patient was also found to have a huge gall bladder mass extending into the liver that turned out to be adenocarcinoma of the gall bladder on biopsy. Gall bladder cancer usually presents with abdominal pain, swelling or jaundice. We report only the second case in literature of a gall bladder adenocarcinoma presenting with exfoliative erythroderma as its paraneoplastic presentation.

Acute renal infarction presenting with acute abdominal pain secondary to newly discovered atrial fibrillation: a case report and literature review.

We report an 85-year-old female with known history of recurrent diverticulitis presented with abdominal pain. It was believed that the patient again needed to be treated for another diverticulitis and was started on the routine treatment. The initial CT scan of abdomen showed renal infarcts bilaterally that were confirmed by a CT with and without intravenous contrast secondary to unknown cause. An ECG found accidentally that the patient was in atrial fibrillation, which was the attributed factor to the renal infarctions. Subsequently, the patient was started on the appropriate anticoagulation and discharged.
