Computed tomography features of pulmonary metastases from angiosarcoma: Lessons learned from one case study.

A distinctive feature of some angiosarcomas is that two or more atypical forms of pulmonary metastases may be detected concomitantly. In this case report, we present a 37-year-old man diagnosed with angiosarcoma of the neck, with extreme diversity of lung metastases on chest computed tomography (CT). We analyzed CT features of metastases and discussed possible reasons for their pleomorphism, as well as clinical implications of these findings.

Superficial Thrombophlebitis of the Breast (Mondor's Disease): An Uncommon Localization of Common Disease.

Mondor's disease (MD), or superficial thrombophlebitis of the anterolateral thoracoabdominal wall, is a rare disease that presents with a palpable cord-like induration beneath the skin. It is a benign, self-limiting condition with probably underestimated significance due to the fact it may be a rare manifestation of an underlying breast carcinoma. It can also resemble breast malignancy and, if physician is not familiar with clinical features of MD, it may lead to unnecessary biopsy.
