Previously classified as Langerhans cell histiocytosis and non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, and recently into 5 categories (L, C, R, M and H), it can be localized to an organ or have a systemic manifestation, affecting most commonly …
1. Abstract Biliary stent complications include stent migration, obstruction, fragmentation, bleeding, perforation, cholangitis, and post-ERCP pancreatitis. Stent migration is the most common adverse event (5-14%) and is associated with: dilated CBD >10mm, benign stricture etiology, concomitant sphincterotomy, stent duration >1 month, and type of stent placed (straight, 10Fr diameter, and length >9cm). Here, we present …

1. Abstract Common hepatic artery (CHA) pseudoaneurysm is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy, and the possible cause is unclear. We report a case of intraperitoneal hemorrhage after pancreaticoduodenectomy who was discharged after embolization under DSA. We consider that this complication may be related to iatrogenic injury.

The omphalomesenteric duct connects the yolk sac to the midgut of the developing fetus. Meckel’s diverticulum occurs when there is a failure of obliteration of this primitive vitelline loop.
