There is conflicting evidence in select mouse models and humans that suggest angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 expression is increased due to treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEI/ARBs). Given the wide range of conditions that these medications treat, further evaluation is necessary to determine safety in the context of COVID-19. We sought to determine the association between use of ACEI/ARBs and COVID-19 severity in patients with essential hypertension.

We report a case of multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis in a pediatric patient with central nervous system involvement, highlighting F-18(FDG) uptake characteristics of dural sites of disease. We also highlight the advantages of functional data offered by FDG-PET as a useful follow-up tool to assess viability and, therefore, treatment response of previously known central nervous system lesions. The utility of recognizing characteristic patterns of FDG uptake in dural disease is also applicable in cases of diagnostic uncertainty, such as when evaluating isolated dural lesions or when distinguishing between Langerhans cell histiocytosis and similar appearing lesions such as meningiomas.

Mucocele-like lesions of the breast are rare, usually presenting themselves as suspicious findings on imaging, warranting biopsies. It can be associated with several degrees of hyperplasia, including atypical ductal hyperplasia and ductal carcinoma in situ, historically being considered a high-risk lesion. It also can be an underestimated invasive carcinoma in a percutaneous biopsy.
