Undescended testes can be found in the inguinal channel or in the abdomen. Rarely, undescended testes can present with transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) and very rarely, with residual Müllerian duct (MD) structures. This latter presentation is called persistent MD syndrome (PMDS). PMDS is mostly discovered during surgery for inguinal hernia or cryptorchidism. TTE is a rare congenital anomaly ...

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the spectrum of radiologic findings of hyperimmunoglobulin E (hyper- IgE) syndrome that is relatively rare in adults. We describe the imaging findings of this rare disease in five patients. The study group consisted of 4 men and 1 woman. The final diagnosis was made according to laboratory findings in all cases. We detected lung involvement in 3 cases, pa...

The presentation of Horner's syndrome following blunt trauma is uncommon, but is of important clinical significance. Identification of the constellation of signs of Horner's syndrome should, therefore, prompt urgent neuro-radiologic imaging. Early diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment can lead to excellent outcomes in the majority of cases and prevent devastating cerebral ischaemic ...

Central cord syndrome (CCS) is extremely rare as a direct consequence of generalized epileptic seizure. CCS is associated with hyperextension of the spinal cord and has characteristic radiologic findings including posterior ligamentous injury and prevertebral hyperintensity following magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We experienced the case of a 25-year-old man who suffered CCS after status epi...

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, also known as reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome or reversible posterior cerebral edema syndrome, is a recently described disorder of the cerebrovascular autoregulation systemwith multiple etiologies, most of which cause acute hypertension. Its clinical symptoms include headache, decreased alertness, mental abnormalities such as confu...

33%.12-15 In the usual clinical setting its nonspecific presentations can result in under-diagnosis and severe outcomes.16,17 The recognition of SMA syndrome as a distinct clinical entity remains controversial because it can be confused with other anatomic or motility-related causes of duodenal obstruction.4,5,18 The left renal vein may also be entrapped and compressed between the aorta and the...

Developmental anomalies of the urogenital tract are rare but often encountered. Zinner's syndrome is a rare congenital abnormality of mesonephric (Wolffian) duct consisting of unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ipsilateral ejaculatory duct obstruction due to developmental arrest in early embryogenesis affecting the caudal end of Mullerian duct and only approximatel...

Bing Neel Syndrome (BNS) is defined as direct central nervous system involvement of Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. BNS is usually a late event, although an incidence of 30% to 36% has been described in large series of previously untreated patients. A wide variety of clinical manifestations and radiologic findings for BNS have been reported in published data, depending on the site and type of ...

The immunosuppressant tacrolimus (FK506) is widely used in transplantation medicine. An acute leukoencephalopathy with clinical and radiologic features similar to posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a common side effect of tacrolimus, and usually develops within the first year of commencing treatment, but a delayed and chronic leukoencephalopathy has been reported rarely in t...

We describe a case of Möbius syndrome in a 3-month-old infant. Striking imaging findings of pontine hypoplasia in the region of the 6th and the 7th nerve complexes were noted. In addition, absence of the middle cerebellar peduncles was noted, a finding that, to our knowledge, has never been reported before in the literature. Clinical presentations, other radiologic findings, and a possible path...
