A rare case of a segmental small intestinal (jejunal) lipomatosis is described. A 33-year-old male was admitted with a clinical diagnosis of an acute intestinal obstruction. A plain erect abdominal x-ray showed multiple air-fluid levels. On an exploratory laparotomy, a jejunojejunal intussusception was found secondary to a segmental submucosal lipomatosis. This was treated by a segmental resection and anastomosis, which resulted in a complete cure. Here we present this case with a review of the relevant literature.

Lymphangioma is a benign tumor composed of numerous small or large thin-walled lymphatic spaces. It shows a predilection for head, neck, and axilla. Jejunal lymphangioma in children is extremely rare. We present a case of 13-year-old girl with jejuno-jejunal intussusception secondary to lymphangioma in jejunum. To our knowledge, this is the second report of jejunal lymphangioma causing intussusception in a child.

Intestinal intussusception caused by metastatic tumor is uncommon. Symptomatic small bowel metastases from lung cancer have been rarely reported. Here we report a case of intussusception with gastrointestinal bleeding induced by jejunal metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer with a review of the literature. A 52-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of melena. He had underwent right pneumonectomy and received systemic chemotherapy with radiotherapy for squamous cell lung cancer. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy failed to reveal bleeding focus. Abdominal CT scan revealed jejunal intussusception and histologic examination of resected jejunum showed metastatic mass from lung cancer. In patients with small bowel obstruction and history of malignancies, possibility of small bowel metastatic tumor should be considered.

A rare case of gastric cancer associated with gastrojejunal and gastrocolic fistula is presented. A 56-year-old man who had been diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer(Borrmann's type III) 5 months previously was admitted due to watery diarrhea and frequent vomiting for 2 weeks. Fluoroscopic examination was visualized two abnormal passage of contrast medium from the stomach, one to the colon, and the other to the jejunum. Gastrofiberscopy revealed that the tumor on the great curvature of the body appeared to penetrate into the colon, while the other one on the antrum directly invaded into the jejunum. The patient was treated conservatively with total parenteral nutrition and pain control.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a risk factor for developing non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Most acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related lymphomas are high-grade B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy has reduced the incidence of AIDS-related lymphoma. There have been 7 reports of AIDS-related extra-nodal lymphoma in Korea. We report a case of AIDS-related lymphoma detected by MiroCam(R) capsule endoscopy.
