Background: Enteric duplication cysts are congenital malformations that typically affect children in infancy, but can also affect adults. Rarely, these cysts can be complicated by malignancy. We present the first case of retroperitoneal duplication cyst that was complicated by malignancy transformation and managed by robot-assisted excision. Case presentation: A 64-year-old female with a histor...

INTRODUCTION Fibromuscular dysplasia is a non-atherosclerotic, non-inflammatory disease that most commonly affects the renal and internal carotid arteries. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of a 44-year-old Caucasian man who was admitted with complaints of loin pain and hypertension. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed a right renal infarction with a nodular aspect of the r...

MULTILOCULAR CYSTIC RENAL CLEAR CELL CARCINOMA CASE REPORT (Abstract): MCR CCC is a rare subtype of renal clear cell carcinoma with specific morphologic and immunohistochemical features. No progression of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma is known. We present the case of a 56-year-old male, with an accidentally discovered renal tumor due to its unusual gross appearance and a rare clinica...

Five children with features of Joubert's syndrome and Leber's amaurosis are described. The presenting symptoms were panting tachypnoea in the newborn, prolonged apnoeic attacks in the neonatal period (in both of identical twins), global developmental delay, and failure to develop vision. Three children had multiple hemifacial spasms, such as have been seen in Joubert's syndrome, and the same th...

Lower urinary tract obstruction is defined as partial or complete obstruction of the urinary tract at the level of the urethra and the bladder. The posterior urethral valves are the most common cause, 9 percent of the fetal uropathies. The incidence range is wide, because of different databases show different populations. The most severe obstructive uropathy is in patients with kidney damage, o...

Epithelial dysplasia is frequently seen adjacent to cholangiocarcinoma in the intra' and extrahepatic bile ducts' and carcinoma of the gall bladder which has a similar epithelial lining.' Extensive severe epithelial dysplasia involving the gall bladder, cystic duct, and common bile duct, associated with adenocarcinoma of the common hepatic duct, was recently reported in a patient with primary s...

Fibromuscular dysplasia is a rare, nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory vascular disease that typically affects women between the ages of 20 and 60 years. Although any artery can be affected, fibromuscular dysplasia most commonly affects the renal and carotid arteries. Fibromuscular dysplasia of the renal arteries usually presents with hypertension, while carotid or vertebral artery disease caus...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe MR findings of osteofibrous dysplasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS MR images of 24 pathologically proven osteofibrous dysplasia cases were retrospectively analyzed for a signal intensity of the lesion, presence of intralesional fat signal, internal hypointense band, multilocular appearance, cortical expansion, intramedullary extension, cystic area, co...

INTRODUCTION McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disorder characterized by the classic triad of precocious puberty, polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and café-au-lait pigmented skin lesions. Cystic change is rare in fibrous dysplasia (FD), especially in McCune-Albright syndrome. There were no reports about cyst degeneration in MAS which resulted in abnormal visual acuity and visual fields. Her...

The PathfinderTG biomarker panel is useful in the evaluation of pancreatic cysts that have clinical features suspicious for malignancy, but its utility in classifying fine-needle aspiration biopsies from small pancreatic cystic lesions is yet to be proven. We used morphology to classify 20 pancreatic cyst cytology aspirates, all of which met radiographic criteria for close observation. Cases we...
