Metastatic leiomyosarcoma of the intrapancreatic bile duct
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the case of a patient with a history of surgically treated pulmonary leiomyosarcoma, presenting with recurrent acute cholangitis and metastatic leiomyosarcoma of the common bile duct. Preoperative examinations had revealed a high grade malignant neoplasm and bilateral lung metastases. The patient underwent pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy and survived for 5.5 years after the first diagnosis.

Traumatic avulsion of the intrapancreatic common bile duct: case report.
Injuries of the extra hepatic biliary tree following blunt trauma to the abdomen are rare. We present a case of avulsion of the intrapancreatic common bile duct. Very often the lesion is not identifiable until the signs of jaundice and biliary ascites occur. Intraoperative cholangiography is mandatory for the diagnosis, but the noninvasive magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography could readi...
متن کاملTechnical knacks and outcomes of extended extrahepatic bile duct resection in patients with mid bile duct cancer
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS Mid bile duct cancers often involve the proximal intrapancreatic bile duct, and resection of the extrahepatic bile duct (EHBD) can result in a tumor-positive distal resection margin (RM). We attempted a customized surgical procedure to obtain a tumor-free distal RM during EHBD resection, so that R0 resection can be achieved without performing pancreaticoduodenectomy through ext...

An extremely rare case of intrapancreatic bile duct metastasis from sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma is herein presented. Sigmoid colon cancer (T3, N0, M0, stage IIA) had been diagnosed and treated by sigmoidectomy in October 1993. In December 2002, a liver metastasis with intrabiliary growth was found, and this was treated by extended right hepatic lobectomy and caudate lobectomy with extrahepatic...
متن کاملSynchronous malignancies of the gall bladder and common bile duct: a case report
BACKGROUND Synchronous malignancies of the gall bladder and common bile duct are a rare entity. Much of our knowledge on this topic comes from Japanese literature. Most of the synchronous carcinomas described in Japanese literature are associated with the presence of an anomalous pancreatic-bile duct junction (APBDJ). CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of synchronous malignancy of the extrahe...
متن کاملIntraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct, gastric type, arising in the intrapancreatic common bile duct could progress to colloid carcinoma: report of a case.
Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) exists in a pathway of multistep-carcinogenesis toward cholangiocarcinoma. Four subtypes are observed in IPNB, pancreatobiliary type, intestinal type, gastric type, and oncocytic type, similarly to the corresponding disease in the pancreas, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). IPNB can present with or without macroscopically visi...
