The paper studies accessory Cr-spinels from deep drill holes crossing the Nude-Poaz massif, which is a part of Monchegorsk mafic-ultramafic layered complex (2.5 Ga, Kola Peninsula, Russia). occur as two morphological types that differ in their chemical composition, i.e., first type are more aluminous, while second ferruginous and titaniferous. massif characterized by Fe-Ti trend known for intru...

BACKGROUND To date, appropriate management for Bethesda IV thyroid nodules is controversial, and no specific features of follicular neoplasm and nodular hyperplasia on ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), or other imaging modalities have been reported. This study aimed to compare CT features of follicular neoplasm and nodular hyperplasia and to determine the specific CT features that coul...

A case of nodular fasciitis occurring at the bladder vertex in a 34-year-old male is reported. The tumor was about 1 cm in diameter. A urachal tumor was diagnosed, and excised en bloc from the umbilicus to the bladder vertex. This tumor was diagnosed as nodular fasciitis from the histopathological findings. No recurrence has been seen for 3 years. Nodular fasciitis occurs mainly in the limbs or...

While regression of focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver is not uncommon, reports of near-complete involution or regression of these lesions are rare. We report two cases of focal nodular hyperplasia that underwent near-complete regression-one in a 27-year-old female that regressed over a period of 4 years, and one in a 46-year-old female that regressed over a 7-year period. Both patients dis...

Focal nodular hyperplasia and nodular regenerative hyperplasia are occasionally seen in patients with hepatic venous outflow obstruction as a consequence of circulatory stress in the liver. In addition, neoplastic processes such as hepatic adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metastatic disease may arise in these patients. Histologic evaluation is necessary when imaging modalities are unable ...

Nodular fasciitis is a rare benign lesion. Here we report a case of post-auricular nodular fasciitis, which was misdiagnosed by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) as pleomorphic adenoma. An 18-year-old male presented at Al-Nahdha Hospital, physical examination revealed a right post aural firm immobile mass. Radiology suggested the presence of a hypo-dense to iso-dense subcutaneous mass. The...

Nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver, characterised by regenerative nodules distributed throughout the liver in the absence of fibrosis, is a rare but important complication of systemic lupus erythematosus. The main consequence of nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver is non-cirrhotic portal hypertension. This condition is probably underdiagnosed, as many of these patients may ...
