Cine clips increase the detection of thyroid pyramidal lobe in routine thyroid sonogram.

Background: Identification and resection of the thyroid pyramidal lobe is important for thyroid cancer surgery in order to prevent interval cancer in residual thyroid tissue.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine how often a thyroid pyramidal lobe is found in patients with and without previous thyroidectomy and to optimise the protocol for identifying thyroid pyramidal lobes during routine thyroid ultrasonography.

Material And Methods: In this prospective study, a total of 1579 patients who received routine thyroid ultrasound scans at a single centre were enrolled.

Antenatal diagnosis of bronchopulmonary sequestration: A case report and review of the literature.

Congenital lung malformations are a constellation of pathologies that can be diagnosed antenatally by ultrasound and fetal MRI. Ultrasound is considered the modality of choice for a routine assessment of second-trimester scans worldwide. Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) and congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) are the 2 most common echogenic chest masses discovered incidentally during routine ultrasound scans in the second trimester.

Distinguishing between cornual, angular and interstitial ectopic pregnancy: A case report and a brief literature review.

For all clinical purposes, cornual, angular, and interstitial pregnancies are considered ectopic pregnancies that can have grave consequences for the patient. In this article, we describe and distinguish 3 types of ectopic pregnancies in the cornual region of the uterus. The authors advocate using the "cornual pregnancy" term only for ectopic pregnancies in malformed uteruses.

Acquired uterine arteriovenous malformation in a patient with cornual pregnancy: A case report.

Introduction: Acquired uterine arteriovenous malformation (uAVM) is a rare disease and could occur after dilation and curettage, cesarean section, or neoplastic processes.

Patient Concerns: A 29-year-old female presented with acute right lower abdominal pain and positive beta human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG).

Diagnosis: A 6 cm ectopic right cornual pregnancy was found on ultrasound examination.

The Great Mimicker: Pseudo-Meig Syndrome in a Pregnant Patient. A Review.

Meig syndrome is the triad of benign ovarian tumor, ascites, and pleural effusion. Pseudo-Meig syndrome mimics the Meig syndrome triad; however, in pseudo-Meig syndrome, the ovarian tumor usually represents a primary malignancy or metastases. Differentiating Meig from pseudo-Meig syndrome is challenging both clinically and with diagnostic imaging but is important because prognoses for these distinct entities are drastically different.
