Correlations between dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging parameters and histopathologic factors in breast cancer.

Background: This study aimed to correlate dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) parameters with prognostic factors in breast cancer.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed in 45 patients who had breast DCE-MRI and were diagnosed with invasive ductal breast cancer following surgery. The following DCE-MRI parameters were calculated: percentage of initial peak enhancement (Epeak), time to initial peak enhancement (TTP), initial slope increase (IS), early signal enhancement ratio (ESER), and time-signal intensity curve (TIC) types.

Pulmonary mucoepidermoid lung carcinoma in pediatric confused with asthma.

Pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma (PMEC) is an extremely rare tumor of the respiratory system. The clinical presentation of PMEC is variable and nonspecific, including cough, hemoptysis, and wheezing, and may mimic other symptoms of pneumonia or asthma. Here, we present a case of PMEC in a 12-year-old male who was diagnosed with and treated for asthma for 2 years.

Wilms' Tumor in Horseshoe Kidney.

Wilms' tumor is the most common malignant kidney tumor found in children. The Horseshoe kidney is the most common renal fusion malformation. However, Wilms' tumor is rarely identified in horseshoe kidney patients.

A rare case of bilateral primary renal Burkitt lymphoma presenting with acute renal failure.

Acute renal failure due to primary renal Burkitt lymphoma in children is extremely rare. We report a case with acute secondary renal failure in a 4-year-old boy who presented with abdominal pain, anorexia, and vomiting. Abdominal computed tomography scans showed bilateral nephromegaly with multiple hypoenhancing regions.

Hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma: The role of radiology in diagnosis and management.

Hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma is an uncommon tumor composed of myxoid mesenchymal tissue with fluid accumulation. Here, we report a case of hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma in a 3-year-old patient who was referred to the hospital with abdominal pain and a slight fever. An abdominal ultrasound suggested a liver abscess; however, computed tomography revealed a mass with both cystic and solid components.

A case report of cerebrospinal fluid leak secondary to inner ear malformation.

Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is rare and may develop secondary to inner ear malformation. A possible diagnosis of CSF leak should be considered in any pediatric patient who presents with hearing impairment, rhinorrhea, or otorrhea. Temporal bone computed tomography should be performed in children with hearing impairments.

Correlations between apparent diffusion coefficient values and histopathologic factors in breast cancer.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy dia-gnosed in women, and the incidence gradually increases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is become widely used to identify benign and malignant breast tumors. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and histopathologic prognostic factors in breast cancer.

A rare case of lipomatous pseudohypertrophy of the pancreas.

Lipomatous pseudohypertrophy of the pancreas is a rare disease with unknown etiology, and the pancreas parenchyma is replaced by pancreatic parenchyma by fat tissue. In this article, we aimed to report the case of a 26-year-old male patient admitted to hospital with loss of appetite for 6 months. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans showed diffuse enlargement and fatty replacement over the whole pancreas, with scattered remnants of pancreatic parenchyma.

Non-functioning adrenocortical carcinoma.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy that arises from the adrenal cortex and can be classified as either non-functioning or functioning. A patient with non-functioning ACC may present no specific symptoms. Imaging analysis can provide some information to a clinician who suspects ACC, such as tumor size, density, washout, necrosis, hemorrhage, and calcification.

An Extremely Rare Case of Splenic Rupture Secondary to Metastatic Gestational Choriocarcinoma.

Gestational choriocarcinoma (GC) is an uncommon malignant tumor consisting of trophoblastic cells. The lungs, liver, and central nervous system are the most common metastatic sites for this disease. However, splenic metastasis is unusual and might result in spontaneous rupture.

Subcapsular urinoma following metastasis of testicular embryonal carcinoma.

Urinoma is an uncommon and severe complication that commonly results from ureteral stone formation, causing urinary tract obstruction, urinary tract trauma, or a pelvis mass. Ureter perforation due to malignancy, leading to subcapsular urinoma, is rare. In this article, we aimed to describe a case of secondary subcapsular urinoma in an adult male.

The first case of spp. pneumonia reported in Vietnam.

A respiratory fungal infection is a severe clinical problem caused by endemic or opportunistic fungi. Although pulmonary fungal infections may be associated with no symptoms, the patient may also present with cough, fever, chest pain, and hemoptysis. spp.

A rare case report of breast sarcoma.

Malignant tumors that originate from the mesenchymal tissue of the mammary gland, known as breast sarcomas, are very rare and can be divided into 2 types: primary and secondary (therapy-related development). Breast sarcomas are aggressive tumors associated with a poor prognosis. Treatment options include the coordination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy.

Extraperitoneal bladder perforation secondary to transurethral resection of bladder tumor.

Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is one possible treatment approach for bladder tumors. Bladder wall perforation is one potential complication of TURBT. Signs of perforation include abdominal distension, the inability to distend the bladder, and the low retrieval of irrigation fluids.

Enlarged accessory spleen after splenectomy mimicking a pancreas tumor.

Introduction: An accessory spleen (AS), a common condition, is usually located in the hilar region of the spleen. ASs are not often large; however, after splenectomy, the initially inactive AS may become reactive and hypertrophic. Therefore, an AS can be misdiagnosed as a neoplastic tumor and removed unnecessarily.
