Successful endovascular treatment of spontaneous intrarenal pseudoaneurysm in a case of tuberous sclerosis.

Tuberous sclerosis is a complex disorder which has multisystem involvement and varied clinical manifestations. Almost half of the patients have associated angiomyolipoma which contains fat, vascular and smooth muscle components. Spontaneous pseudoaneurysm formation is a complication of angiomyolipoma.

Same-day angiography and embolization in delayed hematuria following percutaneous nephrolithotomy: an effective, safe, and time-saving approach.

Purpose: To evaluate the results of prompt, same-day selective angiography and transcatheter angioembolization (TAE) on delayed post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) hematuria.

Materials And Methods: Between 2011 and 2017, 21 patients with a mean age of 37 years (range, 21-60 years; males, 18) underwent digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and TAE to control delayed gross hematuria following PCNL. Discharged patients who following an uneventful PCNL presented to the emergency room with gross, brisk hematuria were included in the study and taken up for prompt, same-day DSA and same-session TAE with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate glue, without resorting to any initial conservative measures.

Vascular hamartoma of the paranasal sinuses: report of 3 rare cases and a short review of the literature.

The paranasal sinuses are an extremely unusual location for a vascular hamartoma. As far as we know, only 1 such case has been previously reported in the English-language literature. We report 3 new cases of vascular hamartoma of the paranasal sinuses, which occurred in a 20-year-old woman and in 2 men aged 36 and 45 years.

Percutaneous glue embolization of a visceral artery pseudoaneurysm in a case of sickle cell anemia.

Although aneurysmal complications of sickle cell anemia have been described in the intracranial circulation, visceral artery pseudoaneurysms in this disease entity have not previously been reported in the literature. Conventional treatment of visceral pseudoaneurysms has been surgical ligation or resection of the aneurysm. Transcatheter embolization has emerged as an attractive, minimally invasive alternative to surgery in the treatment of these lesions.

Infantile fibromatosis of the nose and paranasal sinuses: report of a rare case and brief review of the literature.

Infantile fibromatosis is an uncommon, usually cutaneous, nonmetastasizing but locally aggressive fibroblastic proliferation. Involvement of the sinonasal area is extremely uncommon, and only 5 cases have been previously reported. We report a new case, which occurred in a 2-year-old boy.

Solitary malignant schwannoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses: report of two rare cases.

Malignant schwannomas of the paranasal sinuses are extremely uncommon tumors, as only 18 well-documented cases have been previously published in the English-language literature. We report two new cases of solitary malignant schwannoma--one in a 23-year-old man and the other in a 45-year-old woman. Neither was associated with von Recklinghausen's disease.
