major complications of heart transplantation include graft rejection, infection, graft arteriosclerosis, malignancy, and drug toxicity. among these complications, infections and thrombophilic disorders are of particular interest owing to their major contribution to morbidity and mortality among heart transplantation patients. thrombophilic disorders are caused by imbalance between hypercoagulat...

Perivascular wall tumors (PWTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms in the group of soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) and are defined as neoplasms deriving from mural cells of blood vessels, excluding the endothelial lining. In the present paper, we describe the gross morphology, histopathology and immunoreactivity of a hemangiopericytoma (HP) as a PWT in a dog with recurrence after surgical excision. The mass...

While meningiomas are well delineated on magnetic resonance imaging by their uptake of contrast, surgical limitations still present themselves from not knowing the extent of invasion of the dura matter by meningioma cells. The...
