Adenocarcinoma arising within a colonic diverticulum: report of two cases and review of the literature.
The first reported cases of colonic carcinoma arising within a diverticulum are documented. Although colonic diverticulitis and cancer are common diseases in patients over 60 years of age, cancer arising within a diverticulum is rare. Only close histopathologic scrutiny can differentiate inflammatory changes from neoplasia. Because colonic diverticula are characteristically thin-walled, cancers arising within diverticula may easily penetrate the serosa and first be diagnosed at an advanced stage despite their small size.

Gastric infarction: a complication of endocarditis due to Staphylococcus aureus.
We describe a 62-year-old man with diabetes mellitus and peripheral vascular insufficiency, with an ulcer on his foot which led to staphylococcal septicemia, endocarditis, and disseminated intravascular coagulation. All these factors contributed to thromboembolic occlusion of the terminal arteries and veins supplying the stomach, causing gastric infarction.
