Objective: The objective of this study was to determine whether the presence of enhancing and expansile portal vein thrombus is suggestive of the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Conclusion: In the presence of hepatic tumors, enhancing expansile portal vein thrombus is highly suggestive of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Aggressive Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma of the Rib With Early Skeletal Metastases: A Diagnostic Challenge.
Cureus
November 2024
Internal Medicine, Centro Hospitalar Tondela Viseu, Viseu, PRT.
Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MCS) is a rare, aggressive subtype of chondrosarcoma characterized by biphasic histology, often misdiagnosed due to its rarity and histological resemblance to other small round cell tumors. It predominantly affects adolescents and young adults. We report a 27-year-old male presenting with a progressively enlarging, painless mass in the right inframammary region, initially attributed to muscular strain.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the clinical and surgical management of aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) in the temporal bone, analyzing six case studies treated between 2017 and 2024 at a tertiary care institution.
- Key findings indicate that the average patient age was 27.5 years, with symptoms like scalp swelling and hearing impairment, and successful surgeries resulted in no recurrences during a follow-up period.
- The research concludes that complete surgical removal is the best treatment for temporal bone ABCs, stressing the importance of the tumor's stage and the extent of resection in determining patient outcomes.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry Tehran University of Medical Sciences Tehran Iran.
Key Clinical Message: Odontogenic carcinosarcoma, a rare and challenging diagnosis, was identified in a 60-year-old male through histopathology, revealing a biphasic neoplasm with malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components. Surgical resection is crucial for management, highlighting the importance of vigilant postoperative follow-up to ensure early detection of any recurrence.
Abstract: One rare mixed malignant odontogenic tumor is odontogenic carcinosarcoma, which comprises malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components.

Acute submacular hemorrhage (SMH) can be caused by various diseases including age-related macular degeneration (AMD), polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), and retinal arterial microaneurysm (RAM). The natural course of submacular hemorrhage is generally poor. Animal studies have suggested that the removal of subretinal hemorrhage may effectively reduce retinal damage caused by hemorrhage in humans and removal of submacular hemorrhage have been performed with limited visual outcomes.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how well conventional MRI and diffusion-weighted MRI can differentiate between mucopyocele and mucocele using surgical outcomes for reference.
- It analyzed data from 74 patients between 2017 and 2024, noting specific MRI signal features, including T1 and T2 signal intensities and diffusion characteristics.
- Results showed distinct differences in T1 signal intensity between the two conditions, with DWI proving to be the most reliable method for diagnosis, including specificities and sensitivities for various MRI signs.
