Comments and Illustrations of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine Guidelines: Benign Pleura Lesions (Benign Pleura Thickening, Lesions and Masses)-What Can Be Seen on Transthoracic Ultrasound?
Diagnostics (Basel)

Department General Internal Medicine (DAIM), Hospitals Hirslanden Bern Beau Site, Salem and Permanence, 3013 Bern, Switzerland.
Pleural thickening can be the result of inflammation or infection but can also have a neoplastic origin. Depending on the clinical context, a pleural lesion or mass is often initially suspected of malignancy. Benign pleural tumors are rare, and their appearance on ultrasound (US) is also described less frequently than pleural metastases or malignancies.

Objective: Cerebral amyloidomas (CA) are exceptionally rare tumor-like lesions composed of cerebral amyloid-beta, which is derived from the cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein.
Methods: We presented a case of recurrent CA and performed a systematic review, comparing their initial presentation, imaging features, neurosurgical treatment, and natural history of the disease.
Illustrative Case: A 65-year-old male with a history of right homonymous hemianopsia, who underwent subtotal resection of a CA 19 years before, presents to the emergency department with right hemiparesis, dysarthria, and a new onset of clonic seizures.

Article Synopsis
- Pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) frequently cause ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome (EAS), leading to complications such as lung infections that can appear similar to NENs on imaging.
- A study analyzed imaging data from 59 EAS patients, comparing 45 with NENs to 14 with tumor-like infections, revealing distinct clinical and imaging features that help differentiate between the two conditions.
- Results indicate that CT scans are instrumental for identifying and characterizing pulmonary lesions in EAS, aiding in timely diagnosis and treatment decisions.

Odontomas are mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumor-like malformations (hamartoma) composed of dental hard and soft tissue, causing delayed teeth eruption. Multiple case reports have been published in the literature describing solitary, localized odontoma features in pediatric patients along with their treatment planning. This report presents clinical and radiographic features of gigantic multiple odontomas involving both jaws in a five-year-old boy.
