pulmonary adenocarcinoma is one of the major types of lung cancers in which metastasis is not uncommon. hereby, we report a case of pulmonary adenocarcinoma with multiple muscular, cutaneous, pancreatic and peritoneal metastases. actually, all these features occurring in one patient makes it an extraordinary case. a rare anatomic variation, double inferior vena cava (ivcs), was another rare man...

A 56-year-old male patient was admitted for catheter ablation of highly symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. During the procedure, a rare anatomic variation with an interrupted inferior caval vein (ICV) branching suprarenal into an azygos venous continuation draining into the superior caval vein was detected. Using angiography, a continuation of the ICV leading into the liver, subdividin...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate ranula development according to anatomic variation of the sublingual gland (SLG). METHODS We conducted a prospective, consecutive case series considering other clinical conditions. Twenty-five cases treated by SLG excision were enrolled in this study. The ductal structures of the SLGs of another 11 patients undergoing similar surgeries for ...

INTRODUCTION This study focuses on an anatomic variation in which the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve (LACN) innervates the radial border of the dorsum of the hand and thumb in addition to, or replacing, the superficial radial nerve (RSN). Here, we propose a technique of nerve conduction that identifies this variation. METHODS We studied nerve conduction in 200 upper limbs of two series ...
