Introduction: Carcinoid Heart Disease (CHD) is a rare cardiac manifestation occurring in patients with advanced Neuroendocrine Tumours (NET) and the carcinoid syndrome, usually involving the right-sided heart valves and eventually leading to right heart failure. The additional burden of cardiac dysfunction heralds a steep decline in quality of life and survival, the prompt recognition of this disease being therefore of the utmost importance. Case summary: We present the case of a 57 year old female patient diagnosed in 2016 with carcinoid tumor of the proxymal ileum (Grade 2 NET ki 67 8%) and liver metastasis. She underwent surgery with both tumor and secondary determinations resection, followed by chemotherapy in the same year. The patient comes to our clinic in February 2019, complaining in the last 5 months of abdominal pain associated with flushing of the face, simetric peripheral edema, progressive limitation in effort, appearance of dyspnea on moderate exertion and dry caugh. The transthoracic echocardiography detected severe dilation of the right chambers, systolic dysfunction of the right ventricle, tricuspid disease with severe regurgitation and mild stenosis.

Introduction: Cholelithiasis is very common, but giant gallstones gallstones bigger than 5 cm in diameter, are very rare. It is very challenging to remove them laparoscopically, especially in emergency situations. Case Report: A 69-year-old female complained of right upper abdominal pain with vomiting for 1 day. Abdominal ultrasound indicated acute cholecystitis and a single, extremely large gallstone (9cm). Emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed successfully. Discussion: Gallstone over 5 cm in diameter is very rare. Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (LC) is very difficult for these cases, especially in the emergency situations. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy can, however, be safely performed in experienced hands. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the biggest gallstones managed laparoscopically. Conclusion: Although the presence of giant gallstones poses technical challenges, laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be safely performed in the experienced hands. However, if the anatomy cannot be delineated clearly, open surgery remains the safe option.

导语:胆石症很常见，但巨大的胆结石直径大于5厘米的胆结石非常罕见。在腹腔镜下切除它们是非常具有挑战性的，尤其是在紧急情况下。病例报告:一名69岁女性，主诉右上腹部疼痛伴呕吐1天。腹部超声提示急性胆囊炎和单个特大胆结石(9cm)。急诊腹腔镜胆囊切除术成功。讨论:胆结石直径超过5厘米是非常罕见的。腹腔镜胆囊切除术(LC)是非常困难的，特别是在紧急情况下。然而，腹腔镜胆囊切除术可以安全地在有经验的人手中进行。据我们所知，这是腹腔镜下最大的胆结石之一。结论:虽然巨大胆结石的存在带来了技术上的挑战，但在经验丰富的人手中，腹腔镜胆囊切除术是可以安全进行的。然而，如果解剖结构不能清晰地描绘，开放手术仍然是安全的选择。Arch clinin Med Case Rep 2022;6 (1): 40-44 DOI: 10.26502/acmcr.96550447临床和医学病例报告档案

Presenting Chronic Anemia: A Case Report. Abstract Background: Hemolymphangioma is a rare disease with congenital malformation of both vascular and lymphatic vessels characterized by cystic dilation. It mostly occurs in cutaneous localizations like head, neck during childhood. Only few cases of hemolymphangioma occur in the small intestine, pancreas, esophagus have been reported. Hemolymphangioma is usually asymptomatic symptoms can be chronic anemia due to gastrointestinal bleeding. They constitute an unusual manifestation and there is a low incidence of this type of tumor. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 42-year-old male, with a 7- month history of chronic anemia requiring blood transfusion. Hemoglobin and Hematocrit count were low, therefore further examinations were required to rule out bleeding sources or other causes of anemia. Double balloon enteroscopy showed a 20×20 mm lesion taking up 30% of the circumference in the proximal jejunum, with raised whitish edges, the center with a vascular appearance, and bleeding spots. Histological sections of the lesion revealed in the lamina propria and submucosal layer of the jejunum several markedly dilated thin-walled lymphatic spaces lined with single layers of flat endothelial cells. The final pathologic diagnosis was submucosal hemolymphangioma. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of submucosal hemolymphangioma. Conclusion: The clinical symptoms of hemolymphangioma range from abdominal pain, anemia due to chronic blood loss in gastrointestinal tract, and obstruction to perforation. This case makes the point that hemolymphangioma should be concerned in the differential diagnosis of chronic anemia and other tumors in abdominal cavity with multiple diagnostic methods to confirm the presence of the condition.

Urgent Appendectomy Performed Along with Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) for a Patient with Severe Aplastic Anaemia – A Case Report. Abstract A 14-year-old male was waiting for hematopoietic cell transplantation for severe aplastic anaemia. The night prior to the transplant he unexpectedly developed acute appendicitis. A couple of hours earlier to the emergency laparoscopic appendectomy, he had peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant with no complications.

Relation between mRNA Covid-19 vaccine and acute pericarditis has been advocated. However, we have with no further information about the mid-term evolution of this complication. Here we present the possibility of a rapid evolution towards a constrictive pericarditis. Physicians should know this possibility and closely follow-up these patients.

of a Large Aortopulmonary Window in a Very Low Weight and Preterm Born Infant. 370-373. Abstract Background Aortopulmonary window represents 0.2-0.3% of all congenital cardiac malformations. Usually, aortopulmonary window results in left-to-right shunt. Thus, progressive pulmonary hypertension and its consequences are associated with this anomaly. Commonly, it is located in the ascending aorta. Case Presentation We are describing a premature low-birth-weight infant who was diagnosed with large aortopulmonary window between the pulmonary artery bifurcation and the ascending aorta extending to the aortic arch. Surgery was successfully performed at the age of 4 weeks due to progressive congestive heart failure. This report highlights the importance of early surgical repair in patients with complex aortopulmonary window configuration.
