Breast cancer is the most common malignancy occurring in women worldwide. More than 90% of patients present with localized disease are treated with curative intent; however, recurrence can occur with development of metastatic lesions. Frequently associated with extra-hepatic lesions, localized treatments (surgery or stereotaxic body radiotherapy) are rarely proposed in liver lesions. 90Y radioembolization has extensively been evaluated in colorectal cancer, but its role in breast cancer with isolated liver metastases remains largely unknown. Pre-existing liver diseases are known risk factors for 90Y induced liver toxicity. Not considered as an excluding factor for this treatment, data are limited regarding its safe use with cholangitis. We report a successful control of liver metastases by 90Y radioembolization in a breast cancer patient.

Objectives. The aim of this article is to represent the first reported case with cooccurrence of two rare alcohol related complications.Case Report. We report a 38-year-old man with chronic alcoholism who presented with both cranial and peripheral nerve palsy. On MRI examination characteristic findings of Marchiafava-Bignami disease were recognized.Discussion. Marchiafava-Bignami disease (MBD) is a rare complication of long-term, heavy alcohol abuse that has characteristic MRI findings. Acute alcohol related polyneuropathy (AARP) is another rare and not-well-understood complication of chronic alcohol abuse. We could not find any previous report of the cooccurrence of these two complications in the literature.
