Endoscopic management of a bleeding Zenker's diverticulum: A case report.

Introduction: Bleeding from a Zenker's diverticulum is a rare occurrence, and currently no formal guidelines exist for its management. It is a potentially life-threatening condition and an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of haemoptysis or haematemesis.

Presentation Of Case: A 63-year-old man presented with haemoptysis and haematemesis while on dual antiplatelet therapy for a recent NSTEMI.

Lymphocytic hypophysitis in the elderly.

We report a 73-year-old woman with lymphocytic hypophysitis who presented with atypical clinical features and what appeared to be pituitary apoplexy on radiological analysis. Lymphocytic hypophysitis is a rare cause of pituitary dysfunction, and is thought to be an autoimmune disorder. It typically affects young peri-partum women, with clinical features that are related to pituitary hypofunction, and an uncertain natural history.
