Malakoplakia presenting as Pleuropulmonary masses: A rare clinical, radiological and histopathological diagnosis.

Pleuropulmonary malakoplakia is a rare granulomatous inflammatory condition characterized by the accumulation of histiocytes that contain basophilic inclusions called Michaelis-Gutmann bodies . It is usually reported in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. We present clinical, radiological, pathological features and management of a rare case of pulmonary malakoplakia in an immunocompetent male patient with a past history of empyema treated with surgical decortication.

Median arcuate ligament syndrome diagnosis on Computed Tomography: what a radiologist needs to know.

Median arcuate ligament syndrome or celiac artery compression syndrome is one of the abdominal vascular compression syndromes due to compression of proximal celiac artery by the median arcuate ligament. The median arcuate ligament unites diaphragmatic crura on either side at the level of aortic hiatus. The ligament has a low insertion causing compression of the celiac artery resulting in clinical symptoms of postprandial pain and weight loss.

A case of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) presenting as post-infectious manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) lacunar infarcts and cerebral microbleeds are well-established features associated with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL). Increasing case reports and series recounts a wide array of neurological manifestations of COVID-19 including acute cerebrovascular disease, encephalopathy, encephalitis and demyelination. Recently association between COVID-19 and CADASIL has been identified.
