Cutaneous metastasis in hypopharyngeal carcinoma: a case report.

Background: Occurrence of cutaneous metastasis in hypopharyngeal carcinoma is an extremely rare event reported in the literature, with an incidence of only 0.8%-1.3%.

Idiopathic Scrotal Calcinosis: A Case Report.

Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is formation of calcium deposits in the dermal layers of the scrotum. It results in the formation of single or multiple nodular calcifications that vary in size and number. First reported in 1883, this condition is common in the third decade of life.

Diagnostic value of strain elastography and shear wave elastography in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions.

Background: Conventional B-mode breast ultrasonography, though the primary modality to determine benign or malignant nature of a solid breast lesion, sometimes encounters overlapping sonographic morphological features in a single lesion. Elastography leads to improvement by evaluating the structural aspects and characterization of the lesion as benign or malignant on the basis of multi-parametric assessment.

Objective: Determine the role of strain elastography (SE) and shear wave elastography (SWE) in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions.

Strain Elastography for Differentiation between Benign and Malignant Thyroid Nodules.

Objective: To find out the diagnostic accuracy of strain elastography in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules taking cytology as a gold standard.

Study Design: Descriptive study.

Place And Duration Of Study: Radiology Department, Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology (INMOL), Lahore, Pakistan, from February to July 2019.

Sonographically guided metalic clip placement for tumour localization in early breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective: To determine the outcome of sonographically-guided indigenous low-cost metallic clip placement for tumour localisation in patients of early breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. .

Methods: The prospective analytical study was conducted at the Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology, Lahore, Pakistan, from May 2016 to December 2017, and comprised biopsy-proven breast cancer cases.

Isolated Dorsal Pancreatic Agenesis.

Developmental anomalies of the pancreas have been reported; but among these, agenesis of dorsal pancreas is an extremely rare congenital pancreatic anomaly. It may be asymptomatic and incidentally detected on imaging or may be associated with diabetes mellitus or attacks of pancreatitis. We report a rare case of agenesis of dorsal pancreas that was detected incidentally on imaging and there was no other co-existing anomaly.

Plexiform neurofibroma of uterus: a rare manifestation of neurofibromatosis 1.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) rarely affects the female genital system. Plexiform neurofibromas are congenital lesions that occur exclusively in patients with neurofibromatosis type I. The vulva is the most frequent genital organ to be affected, whereas vaginal, cervical, uterine, and ovarian neurofibromas have also been reported only rarely.

Detection and characterization of intracranial aneurysms: magnetic resonance angiography versus digital subtraction angiography.

Objective: To compare magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) with Intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (IA-DSA) in detection and characterization of intracranial aneurysms.

Study Design: Comparative cross-sectional study.

Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore, from January to June 2007.
