Any foreign body in the esohagus means an acute danger because of the impending perforation followed by mediastinitis, the impending erosion of bigarteries, and impending aspiration in the care of esorhageal occlusion. Nowadays, foreign body can reliably be removed hy endoscopy, and do not perforate the wall, not changed their form. Complication at the endoscopic extraction of foreign body, that requre surgical intervention are very rare. We presented a case of esophageal foreign body complicated with esophageal ulcer in a 83 years old male.

This is a case report of double primary malignant cancer occurred aynchronously in the stomach and lymphoid tissue, We report this case with review of literatures about the criteria, age distribution, predisposing factor, inidence, immunity and susceptibility of the primary malignant neoplasms. This case was a 59-year-old man who had Hodgkins disease and tubular adenocarcinoma, of the stomach. The diagnoais was verified histologically, Although multiple primary neoplaas are rare, the possibility of that must be conaidered seriously, And its hereditary predisposition and other predisposing factor muat be researched with enthuaiasm.

Esophagopericardial fistala is a rare and usually life threatening complication of both benign and malignant esophageal disease. A case of pyopneumopericarduim in 45 year-old female is reported. Streptocoeeus viridana in pas celtore was isolated from pericardial pus. The disorder resulted from eaqyhagoyericardial fistula which probably developed as a complication of esophageal diverticnlum. The diagnasis of the fistula was established preoperatively on the basis of chest X-ray, esophagogram and. endoeeopic findings. The treatment was thoracotorny with drainage of pericardium, diverticulectomy and antimicrobial chemotherapy. The patieat improved postoperatively.

Acute gastric anisakiasis is occurred when men intake a raw or inadequate cooked anisakis infected fish. The clinical symptoms are severe cramping abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and epigastric fulling sensation. It is well known that the whale is final host and man is opportunistic host. Recently, we experienced three cases of acute gastric anisakiasis. We think that acute gastric anisakiasis is probably rather undetected than rare disease. So through immediate gastrofiberscopy of patients with severe cramping epigstric pain occuring after ingestion of raw fish,we can find more cases of the anisakis larvae. In is adequate to abstract of larvae by biopsy forceps through gastrofiberscopy.

Congential bile duct cysts, the so called "choledochal cysts" occur at all levels of the biliary tree and may be of saccular, diverticular, or fusiform configuration. There are 6 types of choledochal cysts proposed by todani et al based on roentgenologic and operative findings. This disease is usually diagnosed at the childhood or early adult life and predilection for orientals. Clinical manifestations are usually jaundice, right upper quadrant abdominal pain and abdominal mass. Here we are reporting a case of choledochal cyst, type IV-A diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonogram. 99mTc-DISIDA hepatobiliary scan and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogram.

Authors report a case with recurrent epigastric pain who revesled to have chronic pancreatitis due to impaction of Ascaris lumbricoides into the pancreatic duct. She was a 41-year-old female who favored raw meat. ERCP revealed a living round worm in the pancreatic duct which was also showed by ultrasonegraphy and computed tomography. She underwent distal pancreatectomy and developed glucose intolerance but was well controlled.

The clinical review was done on 15 cases with the foreign body in the upper gastrointestinal tract who visited and underwent endoscopic removal of foreign body at department of lnternal Medicine of Chonnam University Hospital and Namkwang Hospital from June 1982 to August 1987. The results are as follows: 1) The age distribution varied from 32 yeara to 83 years of age, being most prevalent at 6th decade, The ratio between male and femaie was 4:1, more prevelant in male. 2} Among 15 eases, 8 cases were lodged in the esophagus and 7 cases in the stomach. The foreign bodies in the esophagus were meat, pressure-through package, food materials and bone in order of frequency and those in the stomach were bezoar, persimmon seed, brown seaweed, tooth brush and suture materials. 3) Cambined diseases of upper gastrointetinal passage disturbance were 1 case of esophageal cancer and 3 cases of gastric outlet obstruction caueed by duodenal ulcers and gastric malignancy. Other combined diseases were schizophrenia, chronic alcoholism, diabetes mellitus and gastrie polyp. 4) Complications by foreign body were retropharyngeal abscess and phlegmonous esophagitis with esophageal ulcer.
