Coexisting tuberculosis (TB) and hydatid disease in an immunocompetent individual is an extremely rare occurrence. Given the similarities in the clinical manifestations and morbidities of both, specific diagnosis in individuals coinfected with these is difficult. We, hereby present a case of a 17-year-old adolescent man diagnosed to be a coinfection of pulmonary TB with pulmonary and cardiac hydatid disease, with the review of cases having a similar presentation. The coexistence of these infections should be considered in endemic areas. Management can only be done by a multidisciplinary approach including surgical, microbiological, histopathological and radiological facilities. Complete surgical excision of the cyst is the treatment of choice and medical therapy for both aetiologies should be appropriate to achieve cure.

A Rare case of heterotopic pancreatic tissue of ileum causing acute intestinal obstruction has been described with a brief review of literature. A 42 yr old male patient presented to the emergency department with features of acute intestinal obstruction. After evaluation patient was taken up for emergency laparotomy which revealed a band to be arising from ileum. Furthermore, there was a small growth in the ileal wall at the site of origin of the band. Hence resection of the growth was done and followed by ileoileal anastomosis. Later on, histopathological examination of the growth revealed it to be heterotopic pancreatic tissue. Heterotopic pancreatic tissue is often an incidental nding encountered in upper gastrointestinal tract during endoscopy and surgeries. But Symptomatic ectopic pancreas of ileum is relatively rare and they very rarely present with acute symptoms as in this case
