[Lower gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor]. / Hemorragia digestiva baja secundaria a tumor del estroma gastrointestinal rectal.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most frequent mesenchymal digestive tract neoplasms, but represent only 1 to3% of all GI tract neoplasms. We report an uncommon case of stromal rectal tumor because of its atypical location.

[Local resection and radiofrequency hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma]. / Resección local y radiofrecuencia en hemangioendotelioma epitelioide hepático.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an uncommon tumor of vascular endothelial cell origin with a clinical course between hemangioma and angiosarcoma. Clinical manifestations and radiological findings are nonspecific, and histopathologic examination is required to establish a definitive diagnosis. Currently, hepatic resection or liver transplantation is the best therapeutic options. Because of its unknown biological behavior, local resection and radio-frequency ablation, although an uncommon treatment method, can be performed in the absence of extrahepatic or diffuse involvement.
