[Primary adenosquamous carcinoma of the liver presenting with hematochezia due to tumor invasion of the colon].

A 69-year-old female was referred to our hospital with hematochezia. Dynamic computed tomography demonstrated a large tumor with rim enhancement and central necrosis that invaded into the transverse colon. The tumor was resected, and histopathological examination revealed mixed adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma with partial abscess formation.

Scirrhous colonic metastasis from lobular carcinoma of breast.

A 68-year-old woman presented complaining of 2 months vague abdominal fullness and constipation. She had a history of surgery 5 years ago for invasive lobular carcinoma of the left breast. She had good appetite without any severe symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or hematochezia.

Treatment of iliac artery rupture during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty: a report of three cases.

We report three cases of iliac artery rupture during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). In all three cases, bleeding was temporarily controlled by inflating an angioplasty balloon at the site of bleeding. Two patients underwent subsequent surgical revascularization, and one underwent endovascular stent grafting but ultimately required a surgical bypass.

Post-traumatic diaphragmatic herniation of the liver, examined by positron emission tomography: case report.

We present a case of post-traumatic diaphragmatic herniation of the liver, which mimicked an intrathoracic tumor. After an automobile accident, the patient underwent thoracotomies for hemothorax and lung cancer in the right chest. Seven months later, computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a round tumor in the thorax adjacent to the right diaphragm with a higher density than the liver parenchyma.

Inflammatory pseudotumor suspected of lung cancer treated by thoracoscopic resection.

We report a relatively rare surgical treatment for two cases of inflammatory pseudotumors of the lung. In case 1, a 52-year-old male with a history of left chest pain was admitted to our hospital for an abnormal nodule with an irregular margin that was detected in the left upper lung field. The nodule, measuring 15 mm in diameter, was larger than the one observed six months earlier, which had been removed by a thoracoscopic resection.

[Solitary metachnonous jejunum and duodenum metastasis after surgical resection of lung cancer].

We report a rare case of a 58-year-old man of long-term survival after surgical treatment of solitary metachnonous jejunum and duodenum metastasis from lung cancer. He underwent right upper lobectomy with a diagnosis of lung cancer which was histologically diagnosed as large cell carcinoma (pT4-MONO, stage IIIB). One month after the operation, he suffered from ileus caused by metastasis in the jejunum.
