Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the colon is a rare and very aggressive tumor, generally diagnosticated in an incidental way and during resolution of complications such as perforation or intestinal obstruction. The case of a 58-year-old male patient who was surgically intervened for presenting localized peritonitis pedhora scan to a perforated blind neuroendocrine tumor. Right hemicolectomy whit ganglion D2 resection and ileo – transverse primary anastomosis was performed. Histopathological examination described a well-differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma of small cells, with no vascular or neuronal infiltration. Now the patient is awaiting chemotherapy without the need for secondary surgical review.

Hemihyperplasia is a syndrome with overgrowth of limbs and associated with various genomic syndromes. Rarely patient presents with intestinal obstruction when it is associated with sub mucosal lipomas. Submucosal lipomas are common in colon. But whole of small and large bowel studded with them is very rare as in our case. It presents dilemma not only in diagnosis but in treatment also. Here we present a case of forty two years females with hemihyperplasia syndrome came to causality with recurrent intestinal obstruction. On CECT Abdomen diagnosis of intestinal obstruction due to intussusception was made. Whole of bowel is studded with submucosal lipomas. Patient was tried to manage conservatively but patient does not respond and Right Hemicolectomy was done of intussusception segment. Anastomosis leaked and on re-exploration end ileostomy was done. Obstruction due to Multiple Intestinal Lipomatosis (as a part of Genetic Syndrome) should be managed conservatively and if operative intervention is required avoid primary anastomosis.

Colonic intussusception is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction in adults and is caused by a malignant lesion in about 70% of cases. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential. We present a 64-year-old male patient with right colonic intussusception caused by a mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC), presenting as a giant pedunculated polyp (54 mm of largest diameter). The patient underwent right colectomy with primary anastomosis and adjuvant chemotherapy. The diagnosis of intussusception of the colon in adults is difficult because of its rarity and nonspecific clinical presentation. In this case, the cause was a rare histological type malignant tumor (MANEC).

Introduction. Appendix, located within the Spiegel hernia is a rare condition. Few cases have been reported to date. Although it is generally asymptomatic, patients can apply with strangulation findings. Along with the physical examination findings, imaging methods play an important role in diagnosis and definitive diagnosis is made intraoperatively. Per-operative surgical method is determined according to the condition of the structures in the hernia sac. If an appendix is detected in the hernia sac, appendectomy is often preferred regardless of symptoms. Postoperative pathology is mostly benign but malign appendix pathologies should be kept in mind. Aim. Here, we aimed to present our case undergoing emergency surgery due to incarcerated hernia as it is the first case of appendix neuroendocrine tumor in the Spiegel hernia sac according to our literature review. Description of the case. A 77-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hospital with complaints of nausea and vomiting was evaluated as an emergency. In the clinical evaluation of the patient, we detected ileus due to hernia. We operated on the patient and found the appendix and cecum in the spiegel hernia. We did appendectomy and hernia repair. Histopathological examination of the appendix revealed a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor. Conclusion. Detection of the appendix in a Spiegel hernia is a rare condition. This is the first case of appendiceal malignancy in a Spiegelian hernia.

Abstract Objective: Clinicopathological features of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) have rarely been studied in the Pakistani population. We investigated the clinical characteristics of these tumors according to the updated World Health Organization (WHO) 2010 classification. Methods: The data of Shifa International Hospital, Islamabad was retrospectively analysed for pathologically confirmed GEP-NETs from January 2013 to March 2018. Results: One hundred and eighteen patients (mean age, 52.2 years; male, 55.1%) were identified. 83.1% of the patients were symptomatic including5.1% functional tumors. Pancreas (28%) was the most frequent primary site noted. The most common histologic type was well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor (WDNET) in 81.4% followed by neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) in 16.1%. 45.8% cases of WDNET were grade 1, 27.1% were grade 2, and 8.5% were grade 3.15.3% had distant metastasis at the time of diagnosis with liver (77.7%) as the most common metastatic site. Synaptophysin positivity was seen in 96.8% of grade 1 & grade 2 WDNET, 100% of grade 3 WDNET and 92.3% of NEC and chromogranin was positive in 94.2% of grade 1 &grade 2 WDNET, 83.3% of grade 3 WDNET and 45.4% of NEC. Conclusion: GEP-NETs showed a wide clinicopathological spectrum. Pancreas is the most site of involvement by the GEP-NET however grade 3 WDNET had a predilection for the colon. Small cell carcinomas were commonly observed in esophagus. Keywords: Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tu­mor, well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor, neuroendocrine carcinoma. Continuous...

Lymphangioma is a benign tumour of lymphatic origin. Lymphangioma in peritoneal cavity is extremely rare (5%), particularly in adults. Hereby, we are reporting a case of a Malay gentleman with no co morbidity presented with sign and symptoms of intestinal obstruction. We proceeded with exploratory laparotomy with small bowel resection with primary anastomosis. Intraoperatively, revealed soft mesenteric mass measuring around 5X5 cm and it was 80 cm from duodenum-jejunum flexure. Histopathological examination showed mesenteric cystic lymphangioma (MCL). Cystic intra-abdominal mass should be included MCL as a diagnosis although it’s rare. Surgical management is still a mainstay of treatment due to its potential to invade vital structures and develop life threatening complication such as intestinal obstruction and bleeding. The surgical outcome after a complete clear margin resection can avoid recurrence.

Colonic lipomas are rare nonepithelial tumors that are usually detected incidentally during surgery or colonoscopy. Although lipomas generally remain asymptomatic, when they exceed 2 cm of diameter they may cause abdominal pain, obstruction, or intussusception. Here we present a case of an elderly woman referred by her general practitioner to a general hospital of Crete because of acute abdominal pain along with signs of intestinal obstruction and a positive history of appetite loss. Abdominal computed tomography was performed. To marginalise the risk of malignancy, a right hemicolectomy was performed. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen confirmed the diagnosis of cecal lipoma.

ABSTRACTA 60-years-old, male patient presented with a-tender swelling in the right iliac fossa with right hip flexiondeformity suggesting of psoas abscess. Following emergency drainage of faeculant pus, the general conditionof the patient improved. The barium enema showed leaking ascending colonic ulcer and colonoscopicexamination revealed nonspecific ulcerative lesion in the ascending colon. Repeat investigations were alsonon-conclusive except there was a stricture at the ascending colon on colonoscopy. A second operationshowed that there was a huge mass of terminal ileum, cecum and ascending colon and perforation of ascendingcolonic ulcer most likely carcinoma. Right hemicolectomy was performed with uneventful postoperativeperiod. Histopathological examination revealed well differentiated adenocarcinoma limited to the musclelayer of the ascending colon and features suggestive of colonic tuberculosis at the same site. Antituberculartreatment was completed with regular follow-up and monitoring on CEA level. Patient has been doing well3 years postoperatively. Although rare, the coexistence of colonic tuberculosis with carcinoma may occur. Adefinitive diagnosis can be established only by histological examination.Key Words: Colonic tuberculosis, Adenocarcinoma, Histology.

Malrotation of the gut is a rare congenital anomaly that mostly presents in the 1st month of life. Very rarely, it is found during adulthood either as an asymptomatic incidental finding or at autopsy. Presenting in adulthood with colon cancers is extremely rare. Here, we present the case of a middle-aged male patient with unexplained anemia which on investigation was found to have adenocarcinoma at the hepatic flexure of the colon. The staging computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed the growth at the hepatic flexure with malrotation of the gut. During the laparoscopic assessment, the cecum and ascending colon were found on the left side, and hence, a formal midline incision was made. Cecum was found on the left of the midline along with Ladd’s band. Extended right hemicolectomy was performed, dividing the Ladd’s band, taking care of the anomalous position of superior mesenteric vessels. The post-operative period was uneventful. Histopathological examination revealed this to be well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (pT3N1b). He thereafter received adjuvant chemotherapy and remains well after 5 years of follow-up. Presentation of malrotation of the gut in adulthood is seen in only 10–15% of cases as an incidental finding or at autopsy. Cancers in the colon in these patients are extremely rare. The treatment for colon cancer remains the same although one has to be careful about the vascular anomaly during the resection.
