AMPULLECTOMIA E CARCINOMA GIGANTE DELLA PAPILLA DI VATER
The case of a giant carcinoma of Vater's papilla is reported. The clinical/diagnostic paths and therapeutic indications for ampullectomy are analysed on the basis of the good survival rate observed more than five years after transduodenal excision and in the light of the most recent literature. The authors believe that accurate, early diagnosis and histological typing is fundamental for an appropriate selection of patients when complex surgical decisions have to be taken. They consider ampullectomy to be a valid therapeutic option, certainly in the case of benign neoplasias, and duodenocephalopancreasectomy (DCP) to be the operation of choice for the treatment of ampullar and periampullar m…

ILEO BILIARE: DIAGNOSI E TRATTAMENTO. CASE REPORT
The authors present a case of gallstone intermittent ileus caused by the passage of a big gallstone (about 4 cm in diameter) in the intestinal lumen, through a cholecystoduodenal fistula. They emphasize the peculiarity of the case for the characteristics of symptoms and for casual diagnostic check-up with a ultrasonography. The disease is not frequently diagnosed; today it has a safe recognition by modern imaging. The symptoms can be intermittent and, even when there are the classic signs of intestinal occlusion, the site of the occlusion is various. With a timely endoscopical or surgical approach (open or laparoscopic) it is possible to reduce mortality of patients treated in emergency.
