Carcinoid of the appendix during laparoscopic cholecystectomy: unexpected benefits.
Carcinoid tumors of the midgut arise from the distal duodenum, jejunum, ileum, appendix, ascending and right transverse colon. The appendix and terminal ileum are the most common location. The majority of carcinoid tumors originate from neuroendocrine cells along the gastrointestinal tract, but they are also found in the lung, ovary, and biliary tracts. We report the first case of elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in which we found a suspicious lesion at the tip of the appendix and proceeded to perform a laparoscopic appendectomy. The lesion revealed a carcinoid tumor of the appendix.

[Chronic obstructive bronchopneumopathy and ectodermal dysplasia].
A boy, 5 year aged, admitted in intensive therapy room because affected by respiratory insufficiency, is reported. Recurrent lower respiratory tract infections and three surgical operation in the lacrimal ducts were present in the anamnesis. Clinical and radiologic features of chronic obstructive pneumonia were present. Hypotrichosis, onychodystrophy, microdontia, associated with absence of muciparous glands and greatly reduced muciparous cells of respiratory tract, were other findings.
