Colo-cholecystic fistula: an unusual complication of colonic diverticular disease.
Colonic diverticular disease can lead to various complications. We describe a case of an 81-yr-old man who was found to have intrabiliary air on computed tomography of the abdomen. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and subsequent surgical exploration of the abdomen revealed an ascending colonic diverticulum penetrating into the gall bladder. Colocholecystic fistula is an unusual cause of intrabiliary air and, to our knowledge, this has not been reported in the literature.

Retroperitoneal hemorrhage after cardiac catheterization causing a diagnostic dilemma.
Emergency coronary angioplasty is being increasingly performed these days. This procedure may be associated with complications. We report a case of massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage after coronary angioplasty that posed a diagnostic dilemma.
Acute leukostasis pulmonary distress syndrome.
A 75-year-old woman in accelerated-phase chronic myeloid leukemia with hyperleukocytosis presented with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Despite early and aggressive pulmonary support and cytoreductive chemotherapy, the patient died. Autopsy confirmed the presence of the leukostasis syndrome. The clinical, radiologic, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic aspects of this entity are reviewed.
