Gastrointestinal hemorrhage caused by small intestinal benign tumors: 2 cases report.

Gastrointestinal bleedings caused by small intestinal tumors are rare and difficult to diagnose because they are not easy to access to the conventional endoscopy. We report two cases, one of them from proximal jejunum and the other one from ileal intestine complicated by intussusception. The two cases were admitted in the emergency department for hematochezia and melena, the diagnosis was established by enhanced helical computed tomography angiography.

F-18 FDG PET/CT findings in pulmonary necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis.

Necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (NSG) is a rare systemic disease that was described by Liebow in 1973. Dyspnea and chest pain may be present, as in our first patient; however, 25% of patients are asymptomatic, as our second patient. The typical radiographic findings are nonspecific: single or multiple lung opacities, with common involvement of the pleura.
