A Pedunculated Intra-Bronchial Tumour (Sarcoma) Causing Bronchiectasis

Pedunculated islet-cell tumour of the duodenum.

An unusual islet-cell tumour found at necropsy in a patient who had died from a myocardial infarction is described. Of particular interest were the pedunculated nature and large size of the tumour. The clinical features of the case are considered. Four islet-cell tumours in the duodenum have previously been reported and it seems probable that such tumours arise in heterotopic pancreas.

Pedunculated lipoma causing colo-colonic intussusception: a rare case report

BACKGROUND Intussusception is a relatively common cause of intestinal obstruction in children but a rare clinical entity in adults, representing fewer than 1% of intestinal obstructions in this patient population. Colonic lipomas are uncommon nonepithelial neoplasms that are typically sessile, asymptomatic and incidentally found during endoscopy, surgery, or autopsy. CASE PRESENTATION A 55-ye...

Massive atelectatic bronchiectasis associated with bronchial stenosis.

Serum zinc, bronchiectasis, and bronchial carcinoma.

Beeley, J. M., Darke, C. S., Owen, G., and Cooper, R. D. (1974). Thorax, 29, 21-25. Serum zinc, bronchiectasis, and bronchial carcinoma. Serum zinc levels were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in 65 patients with proven bronchiectasis; the mean level was 93 jig/100 ml, while the levels in two groups of healthy control subjects were 88-6 and 92-7 j.g/100 ml respectively. The range...
