Erythrophagocytic multiple myeloma in a dog.

A 5-y-old spayed female Golden Retriever dog was referred because of severe normocytic normochromic nonregenerative anemia and thrombocytopenia. Serum analysis revealed hyperproteinemia and monoclonal or oligoclonal gammopathy. Fine-needle aspiration of the spleen revealed a highly erythrophagocytic population of neoplastic round cells, morphologically suggestive of plasma cells.

Endovascular Embolization of Spontaneous Iliopsoas Hematoma: First Experience with Squidperi.

A 79-year-old man, suffering from atrial fibrillation and on anticoagulation therapy, was admitted at the emergency department of our institution because of a worsening respiratory insufficiency. After a diagnostic work-up, he was found to suffer from pneumonia, and antibiotic therapy was settled. He was kept under observation for his pulmonary conditions but, within a week, he developed a spontaneous iliopsoas hematoma, due to a sudden dysregulation of anticoagulation therapy subsequent to new in-hospital treatments.

Parry-Romberg syndrome: conventional and advanced MRI follow-up in a boy.

We studied a 9-year-old boy, affected with the Parry-Romberg syndrome, during a period of 32 months, by means of clinical evaluations and neuroradiological magnetic resonance imaging. Over this time we observed a clinical progression of the cutaneous disease without a simultaneous progression of the neurological alterations. Conventional and advanced magnetic resonance imaging techniques showed white matter alterations which proved to be stable during the follow-up.
