Ectopic prolactinoma in the clivus: a case report.

We report the case of an ectopic pituitary adenoma in a 65-year-old man with an empty sella who initially presented with right ptosis and eyelid edema and headache. Neuroimaging studies revealed a large tumoral process at the height of the clivus, with partial destruction of surrounding bone structure. He underwent transphenoidal surgery and histopathologic examination, including immunohistochemical studies, revealed a prolactin-producing pituitary adenoma.

Diagnostic and therapeutic management of diabetic mastopathy: a case report.

Sclerosing lymphocytic lobulitis (SLL) is a benign breast lesion, better known as diabetic mastopathy (DMP), since it tipically occurs in diabetic patients. This very uncommon condition is strongly associated with type I diabetes mellitus. We report a case of a 61-year-old woman, with type II insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, who presented mammography and ultrasonography images suspicious for breast carcinoma.

Breast core biopsy of a rare case of unknown primary large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma metastatic to the breast.

Metastases to the breast from extramammary neoplasms are very rare. Correct diagnosis of breast malignancy is important for establishing appropriate management. Here we report a 57-year old male patient with breast metastasis from large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) which was diagnosed with ultrasonography-guided-core-biopsy.

MR imaging of a bilateral ovarian clear cell borderline adenofibromatous tumor.

Borderline clear cell adenofibromatous tumors of the ovary are extremely rare with less than 50 cases reported in the English literature. We report one case of ovarian borderline clear cell adenofibromatous tumor in a 58-year-old woman. The diagnosis, suspected at the MRI, was confirmed histologically.

Emphysematous cholecystitis: Imaging findings.

We report a case of emphysematous cholecystitis. We also offer a review of the literature, emphasizing the clinical features, pathogenesis, imaging features and treatment of this surgical condition. Early recognition and surgical consultation are vital in these patients.
