Multimodality imaging features of small bowel cancers complicating Crohn's disease: a pictorial review.

Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) are at increased risk of developing small bowel cancer, since chronic inflammation may trigger the histopathological sequence that begins from low-grade dysplasia of the intestinal epithelium and may eventually lead to malignant transformation. Owing to their location in a portion of the gastrointestinal tract which is not easily accessible to conventional endoscopic techniques, the detection of CD-related small bowel cancers is still a clinical challenge. The radiological features of CD-related small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) in patients with CD have been described in some previous studies, including its appearance in both CT and MRI examinations.

Horseshoe adrenal gland associated with spinal and vascular anomalies.

Horseshoe (or butterfly) adrenal gland (HAG) is an exceedingly rare congenital abnormality compared to horseshoe kidney. Here we present computed tomography findings of HAG in a 70-year-old man, associated with some spinal and vascular abnormalities; in addition, a brief review of HAG in adult people is presented. In our case, spinal anomalies included a severe scoliosis, a "butterfly" deformation of Th9 vertebra and the presence of a "split lumbosacral thecal sac" at L5 level.

Upgrade Rate of Percutaneously Diagnosed Pure Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 6458 Lesions.

Background Management of percutaneously diagnosed pure atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) is an unresolved clinical issue. Purpose To calculate the pooled upgrade rate of percutaneously diagnosed pure ADH. Materials and Methods A search of MEDLINE and EMBASE databases was performed in October 2018.

Imaging findings of ovarian leiomyosarcoma with histopathologic correlations.

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a malignant mesenchymal tumor deriving from smooth muscle. Ovarian LMS is exceedingly rare and only few reports have been reported in literature. The article illustrates a case of ovarian leiomyosarcoma in a 61-year-old woman, describing CT and MRI features correlated to histopathologic findings.
