Idiopathic acute pancreatitis and sarcoidosis.

Pancreatic involvement is rare in sarcoidosis. We describe a 30-year-old man who had two episodes of acute pancreatitis within one month with no current aetiology. Diagnosis of sarcoidosis was based on the presence of bilateral mediastinal adenopathies, alveolar lymphocytosis on bronchoalveolar lavage and biopsy of an enlarged lymph node showing multiple granulomas. This case and five others previously reported in the literature suggest the diagnosis of sarcoidosis should be considered in apparently acute idiopathic pancreatitis.

[Lymphomas of the colon complicating hemorrhagic rectocolitis].

Colonic lymphoma is a rare complication of ulcerative colitis. We report two cases of B cell colonic lymphoma occurring in two patients who had a left-sided ulcerative colitis for 7 and 24 years respectively. The diagnosis was made during surgery in one case and at colonoscopy in the other. Complete remission was achieved after surgery and chemotherapy with a 8-year and 15-month follow-up respectively.

[Hepatic calcifications revealing epithelioid hemangioendothelioma].

This report concerns a case of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma presenting with liver enlargement, multiple hepatic calcifications on the plain abdominal film and bilateral interstitial pneumonia. Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an unusual soft tissue tumor of "intermediate malignancy" characterized by a multicentric involvement of the liver and originating from endothelial cells. Histopathologic diagnosis may be difficult because of possible confusion with sclerosing epithelial tumors.
