A case of superior mediastinal widening due to unusual amounts of fat accumulation is reported in a patient with simple obesity, not associated with iatrogenic or primary Gushing's syndrome. The radiographic features included a smooth bilateral widening of the superior mediastinum, relative lucency, no dyfinable mass in the lateral view, and no pressure effects on the trachea Such mediastid Upo...

The common etiologies are obesity, exogenous or endogenous Cushing’s syndrome, alcohol abuse and rarely it can be idiopathic.1 It is more common now than thought previously, as imaging modalities like computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance...

INTRODUCTION: Facial infiltrating lipomatosis (FIL) is a rare congenital disorder that causes overgrowth of one side of the face, that can include premature dental eruption, hemimacroglossia, macrodontia, and mucosal neuromas. 1 We recently reported that affected subcutaneous adipose tissue in patients with FIL contains mutant cells with somatic gain-of-function mutations in PIK3CA. 2 The purpo...
