[Ingestion of foreign bodies by young patients with borderline personality disorder].

Eight cases of young female patients with borderline personality disorder are reported. They presented between twice and 38 times for endoscopic extraction of ingested foreign bodies from the upper gastrointestinal tract. Thus, within a 3-year-period 265 foreign bodies were recovered at 143 endoscopies.

PEComa of the colon resistant to sirolimus but responsive to doxorubicin/ifosfamide.

A 23-year-old male presented with a three-week-history of crampy abdominal pain and melaena. Colonoscopy revealed a friable mass filling the entire lumen of the cecum; histologically, it was classified as perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa). An magnetic resonance imaging scan showed, in addition to the primary tumor, two large mesenteric lymph node metastases and four metastatic lesions in the liver.
