Moscow City Clinical Hospital No. 31, Moscow, Russia.
We present a 33-year-old patient with atypical clinical course of pancreatic mucinous cystadenoma. The tumor had connection with pancreatic ductal system and led to bleeding into cystic cavity. This contributed to incorrect preoperative diagnosis of post-necrotic cyst.

The authors present minimally invasive treatment of a giant infected pancreatic pseudocyst. Throughout in-hospital period, the patient underwent endosonography-guided transgastric drainage of the pseudocyst, 7 endoscopic debridement of the cavity with sequestrectomy, laparoscopy for enzymatic peritonitis and external percutaneous drainage of the pseudocyst. Effectiveness of minimally invasive treatment was assessed considering laboratory data (CRP, white blood cell count), clinical data (hyperthermia, complaints) and follow-up ultrasound and computed tomography data (cyst dimension, sequestration).

Complete response can be difficult to assess after isolated limb perfusion (ILP) for metastatic in-transit melanoma, especially when numerous and unresectable post-necrotic persisting pigmented lesions occur. These residual lesions are mainly seen in the more superficial and pigmented types of metastatic disease and correspond to the residual melanophage granuloma that persists after tumor tissues undergo complete necrosis. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a non-invasive technique that allows the exploration of the superficial dermis.

Background: There have been few studies on muscle injury caused by cytotoxic agents used in cancer. In particular, only four cases of muscle manifestations have been reported in patients who received gemcitabine as single chemotherapy without adjuvant radiotherapy. In only one of these observations gemcitabine was considered to be the causative agent.

Russell H. Morgan Department of Radiology and Radiological Science, Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, 601 N. Caroline Street, JHOC 3235 A, Baltimore, MD 21287, USA.
Imaging of acute pancreatitis requires not only an understanding of the disease subtypes and the myriad of associated complications but also familiarity with the appropriate radiologic nomenclature as defined by the Atlanta symposium in 1992 and, more recently, by the Acute Pancreatitis Classification Working Group in 2008. The accurate description of the radiological findings plays a critical role in the evaluation and management of patients with acute pancreatitis, particularly those with severe disease. There have been increasing efforts to develop uniformity in the use of terminology used to define the radiologic findings in acute pancreatitis, in particular, the terminology for fluid collections, a common area of inconsistency and confusion.
