Hepatie hilar ductal carcinoma is relatively rare, but the prognosis is known to be poor because an early diagnosis is difficult. Because the majority of patients are already infiltrated into adjacent organ by itself at the diagnosis, the rate of resectability is low. The best method of treatment is curative resection, and the range of tumor invasion is very important. The preoperative diagnosis is difficult because the cholangiography may be normal in cases of superficial invasion. Multifocal lesions within the biliary tract may be identified in as many as 10 percent of patients, Especially, the papillary type has the best prognosis and is associated with multiple tumors within the bile duct. We report a case that percutaneous transhepatic cholangiogram showed normal distal common bile duct, but the hepatic hilar confluence and ampulla of Vater lesion was confirmed as adenocarcinoma.

Metastatic tumors to the eye are probably the most common type of intraocular malignancies. The choroid is the most common site of involvement. Though the iris is a less common site of uveal involvement, metastases to the iris may occur and may produce a variety of clinical findings. The most common metastatic tumor to the eye is breast tumor and lung tumor is second, whereas the prompt most common metastatic tumor to the iris is lung tumor and breast tumor is second. The iris lesion may be the first presentation of the cancer and should make a search for the primary tumor. The diagnosis of metastatic tumor to the iris can be established by cytologic examination of aqueous. Local irradiation can spare the patient an enucleation and can preserve the eye for the generally few months of life that remain. Although the prognosis for vision is usually good, the prognosis for life is poor. The authors describe a 37 year old male patient having a metastasis from oat cell carcinoma of the lung to iris, which begins to respond to chemotherapy.

A rare case of carpal tunnel syndrome caused by a thrombosed persistent median artery is presented here. The diagnosis was delayed due to the overlapping cervical radiculopathy. Acute severe pain and nocturnal paresthesia were chief complaints. Ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and computed tomography angiography revealed that the median nerve was compressed by the occluded median artery. Instead of surgery, conservative therapy was tried. It worked well for six months. The importance of using modalities for decision making of diagnosis and treatment is emphasized in this report.

Hemangioma of the urinary bladder is a benign, congenital tumor that accounts for 0.6% of all primary bladder neoplasms. The most common symptom is gross hematuria. However, bladder hemangioma as a cause of massive hematuria is rare. The management of patients with hemangioma is controversial and numerous therapeutic approaches are available. Herein, we describe the use of selective arterial embolization to terminate an episode of massive hematuria in an 87-year-old woman with bladder hemangioma.
