Mantle zone lymphoma in a gastric glomus tumor.

A 61-year-old man had an ileocolectomy for resection of an obstructing lesion of the terminal ileum, which proved to be a mantle zone variant of intermediate lymphocytic lymphoma. At laparotomy, an intramural nodule in the gastric antrum was observed; on resection, this was found to be a typical gastric glomus tumor, focally infiltrated by lymphoma. This combined tumor has not been described previously, to the knowledge of the authors, and could be misdiagnosed easily, although both components should be considered in the differential diagnosis of small cell gastric neoplasms and can be identified readily by immunohistochemical studies.

[Videolaparoscopic oncologic surgery of the right colon: our experience].

The authors present their experience in videolaparoscopic surgery for right colon cancer after two years of videolaparoscopic surgery for approach to colorectal cancer. In the period between March 2002 and March 2003 they have practiced 11 right emicolectomy by videolaparoscopic technique for neoplasms: 7 were males and 4 were females with age of about 70 years old. These case included: 7 right colon's cancers, 2 cecal cancers and two hepatic flexure cancers. One postoperative complications has been observed (9%) for bowel's occlusion for early adhesion syndrome. On the base of their experience the authors perform usually videolaparoscopic surgery (M.I.S.) for the approach to right colon cancer.

[Heterozygous beta thalassemia and gastrointestinal pathology].

A 29 month personal experience with patients clinically followed-up at the divisions of internal medicine and surgery of Comacchio Hospital, located in an area of high incidence of heterozygote Beta thalassemic carrier is presented. A greater predisposition of these heterozygote carriers to manifest duodenal ulcers and gastric neoplasms is noticed.

[A rare case of giant leiomyosarcoma of the small intestine].

The authors report a case of leiomyosarcoma of the small bowel, pointing out its remarkable size and stressing the symptoms that are always unclear and late. Moreover, they outline the anatomo-pathological and clinical features of this rare neoplasm with relevant problems in terms of early and timely diagnosis.

Mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus.

A 38-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with abdominal pain, diarrhea and iron-deficient anemia. Computed tomogram showed a 2 x 4 cm inhomogeneous lesion of the right adnexa. An unusual mass was identified extending from the appendiceal orifice at colonoscopy, and an 8 cm tubular appendix, apparently prolapsed into the cecum, was identified at celiotomy. An appendectomy with cecectomy was performed. On cut section, mucin was extruded from the lumen of the appendix. A mucinous neoplasm of the appendix with mucinous dissection to the serosal surface was reported at the time of frozen section. No gross ovarian pathology or peritoneal implants were noted. Cystadenoma with associated mucocele formation was verified by permanent histology. Mucocele of the vermiform appendix is a rare condition associated with neoplastic transformation in approximately 75% of all cases. Benign mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix should be differentiated from cystadenocarcinoma by frozen section at the time of celiotomy to ensure appropriate treatment. While systemic lupus erythematosus can lead to cutaneous mucinosis, an association with mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix has not been previously reported. Surveillance for metachronous colonic neoplasms is warranted in patients diagnosed with a mucinous neoplasm of the appendix.

Arteriography in malignant neoplasms of the bowel.

Eighty patients with gastrointestinal bleeding were investigated by angiography over a four-year period. Nine had malignant neoplasms of the bowel. Inconspicuous neovascularity was the most constant finding, best seen in leiomyosarcoma of the small bowel and adenocarcinoma of the colon. Neovascularity was not seen in a patient with reticulum cell sarcoma of colon detected by extravasation. When other studies including endoscopy and barium examinations have failed to explain acute or chronic bleeding, an appreciable number of intestinal neoplasms may be demonstrated by arteriography.

Malignant carcinoid tumor complicating chronic ulcerative colitis.

A case of malignant carcinoid tumor (neuroendocrine carcinoma) of the cecum is described. The neoplasm arose in a patient who had chronic ulcerative colitis for 16 years. There is no previous documentation of this combination, which is surprising, in view of the known association of colonic adenocarcinomas and lymphomas with ulcerative colitis. The reasons for this discrepancy are discussed and it is postulated that ultrastructural examination of poorly differentiated colonic neoplasms may result in a more frequent identification of this association.

[Plasma-cell granuloma of the sigmoid colon concomitant with adenocarcinoma of the cecum. Viewpoint for debate, literature review on pseudotumors, idiopathic colitis and cancer].

A case of colonic pseudotumor, causing intestinal occlusion, concomitant with a caecum neoplasia is reported. A male 69 years old was referred to our Institution for colic abdominal pain: colonoscopy aborted because of an insuperable sigma stenosis; diagnostic enema confirmed the sigmoid stenosis, originally advised as neoplastic. As operation, the sigmoid tumor appeared accompanied with enlarged draining lymph nodes and peritoneal sac was disseminated of miliary-like whity granules. Hystological examination showed a plasma-cell granuloma with nodular and peritoneal chronic inflammatory reaction. A pancolonoscopy, performed fourty days later, discovered an unsuspected adenocarcinoma neoplasia of the caecum, that was resected with a second operation. Regional nodes were not involved. The authors make a review of international literature about of plasma-cell granuloma, pseudotumor and inflammatory chronic bowel diseases in order to identify possible correlations between pseudotumor and neoplasms. The extremely low incidence of plasma-cell granulomas in the alimentary tract (17 case since 1970 to 1994) and the reported association with concomitant neoplasms (29%) suggest to consider extremely useful an accurate study of patients with intestinal pseudotumors in order to identify neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract as well as of other organs.

[Intestinal localizations of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (clinical and histopathologic considerations)].

The authors describe two cases of malignant lymphoma localized in the rectum and caecum respectively and, taking into account the data reported in the literature, comment on current classifications and on the latest typing methods, particularly those based on radio-immunological assay. They stress the importance of a uniform clinical classification for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes as well as the increasing amount of interest in these neoplasms, especially in relation to those carcinomas where differential diagnosis does not always prove an easy matter.
