Mirrizi’sSyndrome- Stone in Gallbladder Remnant Resulting in High Biliary Stricture- a challenging scenario A 34yearold gentleman, a known case of diabetes and hypertension, underwent surgery for symptomatic gallstones in December 2018 at an outside hospital. The surgery was started laparoscopically but converted to open procedure. As per the surgeon’s notes the reason for conversion was a technically difficult cholecystectomy. The histopathology of the removed gallbladder was suggestive of chronic cholecystitis. Postoperatively a CT guided drainage of intra-abdominal collection was done.

The liver function tests were suggestive of biliary obstruction (raised ALP and GGT). MRCP was suggestive of a gallbladder remnant along with large calculus (2 cm) in GB bed with compression at biliary conflue

Cystic lesion of pancreas treated with distal pancreatico-splenectomy A 62 yearold gentleman presented to us with complaints of upper abdominal pain with radiation to back since 2 months. He also complained of weight loss, however this was not significant. Ultrasound and contrast enhanced CT scan of the abdomen (figure 1) was suggestive of a cystic lesion in body and tail of pancreas. To further characterize the lesion a MRI with MRCP of the abdomen was done. This was suggestive of a mixed-micro & macro-cystic lesion in tail of pancreas. A communication between the lesion and pancreatic duct was demonstrated (figure 2). These features pointed to a branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (BD-IPMN). An endoscopic ultrasound (figure 3) was suggestive of a mixed micro- and macrocystic lesion of pancreas and myxoid material was aspirated. The cyst fluid amylase and CEA was 154 U/L and 0.12 ng/ml respectively and were normal, indicating a non-mucinous cyst. In view o
