We report a rare case of a large prolapsed pedunculated uterine myoma measuring 15 cm in its greater diameter. In order to make a surgical procedure safe and feasible, appropriate clinical predictors should be taken into account and pre- and intraoperative preparations be available to the surgeon's armamentarium.

Introduction: Coexistance of pancreatic carcinoma and Leriche syndrome is an extremely rare pathological condition. Leriche syndrome is defined as occlusion of the distal aorta at the bifurcation into the common iliac arteries.
Case Report: We report the case of a 57-year old male patient with a locally advanced pancreatic tumor that during chemotherapy presented Leriche syndrome.
Background: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) represents the second most frequent early onset of dementia in people younger than 65 years. The main syndromes encompassed by the term FTD are behavioral variant of Frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), non-fluent variant primary progressive aphasia (nfvPPA) and semantic variant (SD).
Aims: To assess the bvFTD and SD, which represent the most common subtypes of FTD, using visual rating scales.
Purpose: To evaluate the use of percutaneous computed tomography (CT)-guided localization of suspicious intrapulmonary nodules with hook wire prior to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS).
Methods: From April 2010 to February 2011, 15 patients with suspicious subpleural pulmonary nodules underwent preoperative CT-guided hook wire localization of the lesions, prior to VATS.
Results: Histological analysis of the resected suspicious pulmonary nodules revealed malignancy in 12 cases, 2 cases with granulomas and 1 case with bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP).
