FEATURING:

A rare case of duodenal pseudomelanosis

  A rare case of duodenal pseudomelanosis

"Mucosal pigmentation is rarely seen in the upper GI tract, but is well known in the colon and rectum. The diffuse dark mucosal stain of melanosis coli is a late manifestation of many years use of purgatives. Here is presented a rare case characterized endoscopically by dark specks in the small bowel mucosa, seen in the duodenum and further down into the jejunum."

Typical case of "multiringed esophagus"

  Triple anatomic variation of the extrahepatic bile ducts

The frequency of bile duct injuries occurring during laparoscopic cholecystectomies, is twice as high as injuries occurring during open cholecystectomies. While the frequency and complexity of surgical procedures, like liver resections and living donor transplantations, is increasing, there is a renewed interest in detecting anatomic variants of the extrahepatic bile ducts that might increase the risk of bile duct injuries during cholecystectomy.
