RESUMO
Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization TACE is an effective treatment for stage BCLC-B hepatocellular carcinoma (1). The development of skin lesions in the supraumbilical region is an unusual complication following this procedure. We report the case of an 80-year-old male with alcoholic liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension PHT (Child-Pugh A) and multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma. The patient had already undergone four radiofrequency ablations, one alcoholization procedure and four TACEs via femoral access.

Appendiceal diverticulosis is a rare condition with a frequency of 0.004% to 2.1%, and is sometimes an occasional finding during anatomopathologic study of the surgical specimen. It may be presented acutely as a right lower quadrant pain, similar to acute appendicitis for which differential diagnosis must be carried out, and it is associated with appendicular tumors. We report a case of diverticulitis of the appendix as debut of appendicular cystadenoma and carcinoid tumor with representative iconography, being unusual the association of both diseases and even more its preoperative diagnosis.

Los adenomas vellosos pueden manifestarse con sangrado, diarrea, alteraciones hidroelectrolíticas (síndrome Mackittrick-Weelock), obstrucción intestinal, y, muy infrecuentemente, condicionar un prolapso rectal. El prolapso rectal es la protrusión de la pared completa del recto a través del canal anal, su presentación como prolapso rectal incarcerado es poco habitual. Cuando la reducción manual no es posible, la rectosigmoidectomía vía perineal o procedimiento de Altemeier es una buena opción quirúrgica; como alternativa puede realizarse una resección transanal del pólipo y la posterior reducción manual del prolapso rectal. Referiremos el caso de una mujer que acude al Servicio de urgencias presentando un prolapso rectal incarcerado con una masa ulcerada, friable, de 10 × 8 × 5 cm compatible con un pólipo velloso en la cara posterior del recto. Ante la imposibilidad de reducirlo se decide una resección transanal del pólipo con posterior reducción manual del prolapso rectal. Este caso es de interés por la infrecuente asociación entre un prolapso rectal incarcerado y un pólipo velloso gigante, con solo 4 casos comunicados en la literatura.
Villous adenomas may present with bleeding, diarrhea, electrolyte imbalance (Mackittrick-Weelock syndrome), obstruction, being a very rare cause of rectal prolapse. Rectal prolapse is a full thickness protrusion of the rectum through the anal canal and its presentation as an incarcerated rectal prolapse is very infrequent. If manual reduction is deemed impossible, perineal recto-sigmoidectomy, or Altemeier's procedure, is one of the best surgical options, as an alternative transanal excision of the polyp could be performed with subsequent manual reduction of the rectal prolapse. We report the case of a female patient, admitted to the emergency room presenting an incarcerated rectal prolapse with a friable ulcerated mass of 10 × 8 × 5 cm, compatible with a villous polyp in the back side of the rectum. Since manual reduction was considered not feasible, surgery was decided and a transanal excision of the polyp was performed, following a successful manual reduction of the rectal prolapse. This case is of particular interest for its unusual association of incarcerated rectal prolapse due to a giant villous adenoma, having only 4 cases been reported in the literature.
