Portal vein aneurysm is a relatively uncommon entity. It is often an incidental, asymptomatic nding. With the increasing availability of advanced imaging modalities like Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, portal venous system aneurysms are being increasingly reported. We report two cases of intra hepatic portal vein aneurysm diagnosed incidentally on ultra-...

Pyloric duplication cyst is a rare congenital anomaly. Few cases have been described in the literature. We report two cases of 2 and 5 year-old girl. The diagnosis was suspected on ultra sonography and upper gastrointestinal series and confirmed by surgery and histopathologic examination. Resection was total in one case and partial in the other. Pyloroplasty was associated. Post operative was u...

Background: It is a significant challenge clinically to optimize the weight of children and infants. our hypothesis that in receiving dialysis fluid overload can be quantified using lung ultrasound. 
 Objectives: 1. To determine frequency diagnosing pulmonary edema ultrasound clinical examination.
 2. association percentage decrease with number B-lines renal failure undergoing hemodia...

Patients with thalassemia major, intermedia or double eterozygous with sickle cell disease are exposed to a major risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Transfusion-transmitted viral infections and long standing iron overload represent principal carcinogenic risk factors. Every effort should be made to prevent tumor development, whose prognosis is usually dismal, or at least to make...

Introduction: Renal length measurement is an important diagnostic clue in several urinary tract abnormalities. Although ultra sonography is the most frequent used modality for renal size estimation, renal diameter assessment by 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy is of great value. By now, pointing to the renal size in the 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy report has not been recommended by gui...

 Leydig stromal cell tumor is a rare ovarian tumor that belongs to the group of sex-cord stromal tumors. They produce testosterone leading to hyperandrogenism. We present a 41yr old woman with symptoms of virilization and a mass of right adenex via ultra Sonography, and a rise of total and free serum testosterone. An ovarian source of androgen was suspected and a surgery performed. A diagnosis ...
