Cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery: A case report with review of literature.

Introduction And Importance: Cystic adventitial disease (CAD) is a rare vascular disorder marked by occlusion stemming from the development of a cystic mass within the outer (subadventitial) layer, with a predominant impact on the popliteal artery. The significance of the case presented herein lies in shedding light on a distinct clinical manifestation involving a 40-year-old man who exhibited sporadic calf claudication during ambulation. This instance contributes to the broader understanding of CAD and its diverse clinical presentations, emphasizing the need for further exploration and awareness within the medical community.

Supra-sellar granular cell tumor: Report of a case with literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Granular cell tumor (GCT) originating from the sellar and suprasellar regions, specifically from the neurohypophysis, is a rare neoplasm. Distinguishing GCT from other pituitary tumors, including pituitary adenoma, pituicytoma, and spindle cell oncocytoma, poses significant challenges. Here, we present a rare case of GCT originating from the posterior pituitary in the supra-sellar region.

Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON): Unraveling a rare non-neoplastic calcified central nervous system lesion.

Introduction And Importance: Calcifying pseudoneoplasms of the neuraxis (CAPNON) are infrequent benign brain tumors. They demonstrate slow growth and are characterized by calcium deposits within the tumor tissue. CAPNONs are observed in the supratentorial compartment of the brain.

[An unusual brain lesion].

A 31-year-old man, with no past medical history, presented with headaches, sudden loss of vision, right exophtalmia, bilateral papilledema, and fever. Brain imaging noted a right basi-temporal lesion. Excision of the lesion was performed.

Diagnostic performance of the EU TI-RADS and ACR TI-RADS scoring systems in predicting thyroid malignancy.

Introduction: Several ultrasound scoring systems have been developed to stratify the risk of malignancy of thyroid nodules, including ACR (American College of Radiology) and EU (European) TI-RADS. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of these two classifications using histology as a reference standard.

Methods: It was a single-centre, retrospective study including 156 patients who underwent thyroidectomy.
