CT in the diagnosis of adnexal torsion: a retrospective study.

Ultrasonography (USG) is the first and best modality for diagnosis of the adnexal torsion. But frequently in clinical practice, computed tomography (CT) scan becomes the first acquired modality as adnexal torsion mimics other non-gynaecological conditions. This retrospective study evaluated the diagnostic performance of CT as a modality in adnexal torsion.

Intracranial cystic lesions and polydactyly associated with acrocallosal syndrome: Sonographic findings in two cases.

We describe two cases of intracranial cystic lesions associated with acrocallosal syndrome. These fetal anomalies were detected on antenatal sonography and confirmed postnatally. Imaging findings include corpus callosum agenesis with interhemispheric cysts and craniofacial anomalies associated with polydactyly.

Mind the gap: imaging spectrum of abdominal ventral hernia repair complications.

Ventral hernia repair with or without mesh placement is a commonly done procedure. Laparoscopic approach is more preferred than open in recent surgical practice. Complications occur as like any other abdominal surgeries and are dependent on multiple factors.

Hydropic degeneration of leiomyoma in nongravid uterus: The "split fiber" sign on magnetic resonance imaging.

Extensive hydropic degeneration in uterine leiomyoma is a rare occurrence and is commonly reported in association with pregnancy. It is a close mimicker of malignancy due to rapid growth and atypical imaging appearances. Awareness of the imaging features helps in diagnosis, avoids unnecessary patient anxiety, and hence reassurance especially when encountered in pregnancy.

Case 248: Cystic Duodenal Dystrophy with Groove Pancreatitis.

History A 59-year-old man presented to the gastroenterology outpatient department with acute abdominal pain centered in the epigastrium. He had experienced similar episodes of abdominal pain in the past that had been treated with surgery. He reported multiple failed attempts at upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.

A rare case of adult ovarian hernia in MRKH syndrome.

Inguinal hernias containing ovary have a documented incidence of 3%. Most of the cases are associated with congenital anomalies of genital tract such as Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. A 20-year-old female presented with primary amenorrhoea, normal secondary sexual characteristics and genetic karyotyping showing 46XX chromosome.

Oesophageal perforation as a complication of ingested partial denture.

We report herein the case of a 53-year-old female who came to the emergency room with the chief complaints of severe dysphagia and chest pain following accidental swallowing of her denture. The patient had swelling of the face, neck and eyelids with difficulty in breathing. A skull radiograph was taken, which revealed a missing partial denture from the right lower jaw.

Bilateral nasolabial cysts - case report and review of literature.

Nasolabial cyst is a non-odontogenic, extraosseous, soft tissue cyst, commonly unilateral, located in the nasolabial fold. Bilateral nasolabial cysts are of rare occurrence. This case report describes the multimodality imaging appearance of bilateral nasolabial cysts with a review of literature.

Angioinvasive rhinocerebral mucormycosis with complete unilateral thrombosis of internal carotid artery-case report and review of literature.

Angioinvasive rhinocerebral mucormycosis is an acute fulminant infection caused by fungi of the order Mucorales that targets uncontrolled diabetics and other immunosupressed individuals. Early imaging features of angioinvasiveness include the presence of thrombosed vessels, especially in the orbital regions and the "black turbinate" sign representing devitalized paranasal sinus mucosa. Intracranial extension carries a grave prognosis, with death reported in 90% of cases.

Multimodality imaging in adnexal torsion.

Adnexal torsions are one among the causes of acute pelvic pain in females. Commonly occurring adnexal torsions are ovarian either involving the normal ovary with functional cysts or an associated mass. Fallopian tube torsions, torsions involving paraovarian, fimbrial cysts and subserosal fibroids are rare.
