Primary adrenal hydatid cyst: A rare entity and literature review.

Hydatid cyst is a zoonotic disease rarely involving the adrenal glands, even in areas where the disease is endemic. The purpose of this article is to present the clinical and imaging findings of adrenal hydatid cysts, along with a comprehensive literature review of related research. Here we report a rare case of an 18-year-old male with a right adrenal cystic lesion showing characteristic features of a hydatid cyst on ultrasonography and computed tomography, which turned out to be an adrenal hydatid cyst after surgical excision.

Magnetic resonance imaging in rabies encephalitis, a case report, and review of the literature.

Rabies is an acute fatal disease of the central nervous system. Neuroimaging plays an important role, especially in establishing an early diagnosis and distinguishing it from other types of encephalitis. This case report aims to give a brief review of this condition and report the less common MRI findings of the disease.

Imaging findings of human hepatic fascioliasis: a case report and review of the literature.

Background: Fascioliasis is a food-borne hepatobiliary zoonosis caused by Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica. Human infestations are predominantly seen in developing countries where the disease is endemic, but, due to the increase in international travel rates, hepatic fascioliasis is also appearing in nonendemic areas including Europe and the USA. The clinical and laboratory findings are usually nonspecific.

Stercoral colitis due to massive fecal impaction: a case report and literature review.

Unlabelled: Stercoral colitis is a rare inflammatory condition involving the large bowel wall secondary to fecal impaction. Stercoral colitis has a clinical course ranging from non-complicated fecaloid impaction to colonic perforation. This case report aims to give a brief review of this condition and discuss its imaging findings.

Early manifestation of Moyamoya syndrome in a 2-year-old child with Down syndrome.

Moyamoya is a rare occlusive cerebrovascular disease characterized by progressive stenosis of the terminal portion of the internal carotid artery and the circle of Willis. Over time, collateral arteries are usually formed at the basal ganglia, the so-called Moyamoya vessels. The exact cause of Moyamoya disease is unknown, while Moyamoya syndrome refers to Moyamoya-like vasculopathy due to autoimmune diseases, neurofibromatosis type I, sickle cell disease, radiation, or rarely Down syndrome.
