This article reviews the different MR features found in sinusoidal lesions of the liver parenchyma. The diagnosis of these abnormalities is mainly based on the pathologic examination. These diagnoses relate to numerous diseases including veno-occlusive disease, Budd-Chiari disease, peliosis, hepato-portal sclerosis, and portal intra-sinusoidal thrombosis. The use of fast multi-slice acquisitions associated with dynamic enhancement of the liver leads to an efficient examination and allows analysis of both the parenchymal and vascular components of the liver.

Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) is an aggressive mature T-cell lymphoma characterized by significant hepatosplenomegaly, bone marrow involvement, and minimal or no lymphadenopathy. Primarily affecting young adults, it is exceptionally rare in children and adolescents. This makes diagnosis and treatment particularly challenging for pathologists and pediatric oncologists.

Background: Dyskeratosis congenita is a rare genetic disease due to telomere biology disorder and characterized by heterogeneous clinical manifestations and severe complications. "Porto-sinusoidal vascular disease" has been recently proposed, according to new diagnostic criteria, to replace the term "idiopathic non-cirrhotic portal hypertension." TERT plays an important role in telomeric DNA repair and replication.

Human health is being threatened by environmental microplastic (MP) pollution. MPs were detected in the bloodstream and multiple tissues of humans, disrupting the regular physiological processes of organs. Nanoscale plastics can breach the blood-brain barrier, leading to neurotoxic effects.

Cystic degeneration (CD) in the liver is a cyst-like lesion composed of one or more pseudocysts lacking lining cells, occurring spontaneously in rats older than 12 months, with a male predilection. In this study, 32 CDs were identified in 23 out of 104 non-treated, control male Sprague-Dawley rats from two combined chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity studies with agrochemicals. They were examined histologically, histochemically, and immunohistochemically to assess the pathogenesis and pathological significance of CD, focusing on pseudocapillarization in aged rat liver.

Diabetic retinopathy is a major ocular complication associated with diabetes mellitus. Pericyte loss is a hallmark of diabetic retinopathy. The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B-PDGF receptor-β (PDGFRβ) signaling pathway plays an important role in the proliferation and migration of pericytes.
