RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: This is a rare case report of axillary intraductal papilloma arising in accessory breast tissue. CASE PRESENTATION: A 49-year-old woman presented to our clinic with a palpable right axillary mass that had first appeared 6 months earlier. Mammography and ultrasonography of the right axilla revealed an ovoid mass surrounding accessory breast tissue. Ultrasound-guided 14-G core-needle biopsy was performed and pathologically revealed intraductal papilloma without atypia. CONCLUSION: Since ectopic breast tissue is affected by the same pathologic processes as normal breast tissue, a core-needle biopsy can be used to identify the suspicious lesions in axillary breast tissue.

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a critical disease which is presented by occlusion of peripheral arteries, while it could result in amputation of the involved limbs if it remained untreated before it would progress into tissue necrosis. It is usually diagnosed by CT angiography or conventional angiography, but its early diagnosis is challenging because its symptoms may be absent or like those of other diseases. In this case report, the authors showed that an atypical soft tissue uptake of lower limb incidentally found on a bone scintigraphy resulted in early diagnosis and successful treatment outcome of PAD.
RESUMEN
Elderly patients with a history of chronic alcoholism presented to our hospital with episodes of melena, abdominal pain, and anemia. During admission, hemorrhagic cystic lesion at the pancreas was observed on abdominal CT. Transcatheter angiography confirmed active bleeding foci and arterial embolization was performed. After the procedure, the bleeding was resolved. The authors report two cases of hemosuccus pancreaticus and pancreaticocolic fistula associated with pancreatitis, a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding, treated with vascular intervention.
