Paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration mimicking acute post-infectious cerebellitis.

Acute cerebellitis is a monophasic non-progressive encephalitis restricted to the cerebellum, while paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration is a subacute progressive disorder, which may either accompany or herald Hodgkin's disease. In the present report, we describe a young man with clinical and laboratory features of acute post-infectious cerebellitis in whom the progressive relapsing course subsequently led to the diagnosis of Hodgkin's disease. Dynamic changes observed on repeated MRIs during the protracted clinical course imply the presence of early active inflammation and subsequent neuronal atrophy.

Complex multilocular cystic lesion of rete testis, accompanied by smooth muscle hyperplasia, mimicking intratesticular Leydig cell neoplasm.

Non-neoplastic smooth muscle cell proliferation occurs under a variety of circumstances in many body organs. These abnormalities have been described as hypertrophy, hyperplasia or hamartomatous proliferations. In the male genital system, the excessive growth of smooth muscle in spermatic cord or paratesticular tissue is rare.

Premenstrual syndrome and associated skin diseases related to hypersensitivity to female sex hormones.

Objective: To study skin diseases and hypersensitivity to female sex hormones in patients with the premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

Study Design: Thirty women answered a questionnaire related to PMS and underwent gynecologic, dermatologic and laboratory examinations. Intradermal testing was performed with estradiol valerate, progesterone and placebo.

Atypical and unusual clinical manifestations of contact dermatitis to clothing (textile contact dermatitis): case presentation and review of the literature.

Although the exact incidence of textile contact dermatitis is unknown, recent studies demonstrate that contact dermatitis produced by allergic or irritant reactions to clothing not only is more frequent than previously thought but also increasing. The clinical features of contact dermatitis (CD) caused by clothing may resemble common allergic contact dermatitis or may have atypical presentations. We report on several cases of clothing-induced contact dermatitis with atypical clinical presentations.
