Multiple, large, benign peritoneal cysts--a case report.

This case report describes a unique case of large (up to 17 cm!) peritoneal cysts of uncertain aetiology. It illustrates the diagnostic and management difficulties encountered with such a rare problem. Although subsequently proven to be benign, they were thought to represent an extreme form of endosalpingiosis after a literature review.

Acute ulcerative colitis in a Meckel's diverticulum.

This report describes the case of a patient with acute ulcerative colitis who underwent an emergency colectomy and removal of an incidental Meckel's diverticulum which appeared inflamed. Histology showed acute inflammation of colonic epithelium within the Meckel's diverticulum, justifying its removal and confirming that this was indeed a 'skip lesion'.
