Rare Gastric Diverticulum Mimicking Adrenal Abscess on Computed Tomography.

Gastric diverticula are a rare phenomenon that is typically asymptomatic and encountered incidentally. Due to the relative proximity between the gastric diverticula and the left adrenal gland, they may mimic adrenal masses on computed tomography (CT). For this reason, the preferred diagnostic methods for gastric diverticula are upper gastrointestinal series or direct visualization on endoscopy.

An overlooked mimic? Autoimmune myelofibrosis-A scoping review of the literature.

Background And Objectives: Autoimmune myelofibrosis (AIMF) is a rare cause of bone marrow fibrosis (BMF) occurring in the presence or absence of a defined autoimmune disease (secondary or primary AIMF, sAIMF/pAIMF, respectively). Unlike primary myelofibrosis (PMF), AIMF responds well to immunosuppressive therapy with a benign clinical course. Diagnostic criteria for AIMF in opposition to PMF have been lacking, though recent work has helped better characterise molecular and pathological features of AIMF, improving diagnostic precision.
