UNLABELLED In the present manuscript, we studied the incidence of granulomatous prostatitis in the prostatectomy specimen of the patients who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) after superficial bladder cancer treatment with intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and were diagnosed with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). The clinical data and histopathological specime...

Herein, we describe a combination of clinical, microbiologic, and histopathologic findings significantly associated with osteomyelitis in chronic granulomatous disease. When present, these features should raise the suspicion of underlying chronic granulomatous disease. In patients with these findings, anti-infective prophylactic measures aiming to cover highly prevalent microorganisms, as well ...

Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease with a wide range of clinical manifestations. Skin involvement is an early, frequent and accessible location for a histopathological study. Several risk factors have been described to determine the likelihood of systemic involvement of an apparent cutaneous condition. Early diagnosis and systemic treatment could prevent future complications. A ser...

OBJECTIVE To report an unusual case of granulomatous hypophysitis with sphenoid sinus involvement in a woman presenting with headaches and visual field deficits approximately 2 weeks after a normal delivery. METHODS We present the history, physical findings, hormonal assay results, pituitary imaging, surgical findings, and pathology findings at presentation and then follow-up data at several ...

Introduction: Granulomatous mastitis is a rare benign disease, the exact cause of which is still unknown. It usually presents as a mass which may simulate carcinoma. Many patients are put on long term antibiotics because of breast abscess suspicion, but are not cured. This disease usually affects women of child-bearing age with a history of oral contraceptive use. Most cases have been reported ...

chronic granulomatous disease (cgd) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder due to a genetic defect in one of the components of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (nadph) oxidase complex. this complex is composed of membrane-bound gp91- phox and p22- phox subunits, and cytosolic subunits consisting of p47- phox , p67- phox , and p40- phox . a mutation in cybb gene encoding gp91- ph...

absract idiopathic granulomatous mastitis is a rare, inflammatory, and benign breast disease characterized by non-caseating granulomata and microabscesses limited to breast lobules. this condition presents as a firm breast mass that is clinically and radiologically indistinguishable from breast cancer, or as multiple or recurrent abscesses, or mastitis in a young non-lactating woman. almost alw...

Objective To preliminarily evaluate technical feasibility of a dual-echo ultrashort echo time (UTE) subtraction MR imaging by using concurrent dephasing and excitation (CODE) sequence for visualization of iron-oxide enhancement in focal inflammatory pulmonary lesions. Materials and Methods A UTE pulmonary MR imaging before and after the injection of clinically usable superparamagnetic iron-ox...

OBJECTIVE To observe the incidence of reversed halo sign in different pulmonary diseases and the pathological correspondence of reversed halo sign. METHODS Retrospectively studied the high resolution computer tomography scans of all the patients who were admitted in our department with abnormal pulmonary imaging, from 1st of January 2011 to 31st of December 2013, and all the cases with revers...

Granulomatous lobular mastitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the breast of unknown etiology. Most present as breast masses in women of child-bearing age. A 29-year-old female presented with a swollen, firm and tender right breast, initially misdiagnosed as mastitis. Core needle biopsy revealed findings consistent with granulomatous lobular mastitis, and cultures were all negative for an inf...
