Benign persistent papular acantholytic and dyskeratotic eruption of the vulva: a case report.

Int J Gynecol Pathol

Department of Pathology, Akdeniz University, School of Medicine, Antalya, Turkey.

Published: October 2000

We report a case of 44-year-old woman with persistent pruritic papules on the left and right labium majus of the vulva. Histopathologic examination of the vulvar biopsy specimen revealed a suprabasal separation of the epidermis with acantholysis and dyskeratosis.

Osteoid Osteoma in an Elderly Patient: Diagnostic Challenges.

Int J Surg Pathol

Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor commonly affecting young individuals, with a rare occurrence in older adults. It typically presents with night pain relieved by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and is characterized radiographically by a small, radiolucent nidus surrounded by reactive sclerosis. We present a 70-year-old female patient with persistent right hip pain, initially diagnosed as arthritis, who underwent total hip arthroplasty.

Intracranial calcifications, particularly within the falx cerebri, serve as crucial diagnostic markers ranging from benign accumulations to signs of severe pathologies. The falx cerebri, a dural fold that separates the cerebral hemispheres, presents challenges in visualization due to its low contrast in standard imaging techniques. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), particularly in machine learning and deep learning, have significantly transformed radiological diagnostics.

Time-dependent diffusion MRI and kinetic heterogeneity as potential imaging biomarkers for diagnosing suspicious breast lesions with 3.0-T breast MRI.

Magn Reson Imaging

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Beijing Hospital, National Center of Gerontology, Institute of Geriatric Medicine, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, No. 1 Da Hua Road, Dong Dan, Beijing 100730, PR China; Graduate School of Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing, PR China.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of time-dependent diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (td-dMRI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI)-based kinetic heterogeneity in differentiating suspicious breast lesions (categorised as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System 4 or 5).

Methods: This prospective study included 51 females with suspicious breast lesions who underwent preoperative breast MRI, including DCE-MRI and td-dMRI. Six kinetic parameters, namely peak, persistent, plateau, washout component, predominant curve type, and heterogeneity, were extracted from the DCE series using MATLAB and SPM software.

Article Synopsis
  • Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) causes recurring episodes of vertigo, and despite initial symptom resolution, many patients experience relapses and other complications such as migraines, neck pain, and falls after discharge.
  • This study observed 124 patients with BPPV and found that 70.97% of them reported new symptoms post-treatment, with prior neck pain, headaches, and migraines being significant predictors for future issues.
  • Key findings highlight that low vitamin D levels may increase recurrence risk, and the relationship between anxiety and persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) suggests that BPPV is often accompanied by lingering symptoms despite the absence of nystagmus.
