Enterobius Vermicularis: A Parasitic Cause of Appendicular Colic.

is the most commonly identified parasite incidentally found within the appendix of a clinically diagnosed appendicitis. This parasitic cause of appendicular colic, primarily affecting children, is an important cause of negative appendicectomy. We report an unusual and interesting case of a young female who presented with clinical features of acute appendicitis.

Ectopic breast carcinoma presenting as sebaceous cyst left axilla.

A 43-year-old woman with a positive family history of breast cancer presented with a painless lump in her left axilla for 2 years. Clinical diagnosis was a left axillary sebaceous cyst as the lump was inseparable from the skin. The lesion was excised under local anaesthesia and reported as breast tissue widely infiltrated by an invasive ductal carcinoma (grade 2).

Appendiceal mucocele: a missed diagnosis.

A 38-year-old man presented to clinic with recurrent right iliac fossa pain from a young age; three episodes of which required hospital admission. He was otherwise well with no associated symptoms. In view of persistent pain and recurrent admissions a CT scan was arranged which showed a dilated retrocaecal appendix suggesting recurrent appendicitis.

Intracystic papillary carcinoma of breast: report of three cases and review of the literature.

Intracystic papillary carcinoma (IPC) of the breast is a rare malignant tumour, found mainly but not exclusively in elderly women. IPC may be asymptomatic or presents with a palpable mass or blood-stained nipple discharge. The tumour is encysted within a dilated duct with arborisation of the fibrovascular stroma and contains nodules of papillary carcinoma surrounded by a thick fibrous capsule.

Skin lesion in axilla: an unusual presentation of invasive lobular carcinoma of breast.

Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of breast is known to present with atypical clinical findings in the breast, making it difficult to diagnose. It is also known to have unusual sites of metastases arising de novo or in patients treated for known ILC. Skin lesion in axilla could be a cutaneous metastasis from ILC or ILC in ectopic breast tissue (EBT).

Sebaceous carcinoma of the skin of the breast: a case report.

Introduction: Sebaceous gland tumours are rare and their presence should be considered as a marker for Muir-Torre Syndrome, alerting to search for an occult malignancy.

Case Presentation: A 43-year-old Caucasian female patient underwent excision of a sebaceous cyst. Histopathology confirmed a sebaceous carcinoma.

Nonsurgical management of pancreaticopleural fistula.

Context: Pancreaticopleural fistula is seen in acute and chronic pancreatitis or after traumatic or surgical disruption of the pancreatic duct. Surgery leads to healing in 80-90% of cases but carries a mortality of up to 10%.

Aim: Our aim was to assess the management of pancreaticopleural fistula on a specialist pancreatic Unit.
