To our knowledge, a metastatic periampullary tumor from hepatocellular carcinoma has never been reported. A 62-year-old male reported to our institute for fatigue and low hemoglo...

Testicular Cancer Presenting as Gastric Variceal Hemorrhage

Testicular cancer is the most common solid malignancy affecting males between the ages of 15 and 35. The symptomatology caused by this tumor varies according to the site of metastasis.

Amyloidosis presenting as lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

AL-Amyloid rarely presents in the gastrointestinal tract as acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage, especially in the absence of clinical disease elsewhere in the body. There are no reported cases of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance progressing to AL-Amyloid presenting as lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage. We report a case of a patient initially diagnosed with monoclonal gammopathy...
