Department of Radiology, Tenri Hospital, Nara, Japan.
We report the case of a 62-year-old male on long-term hemodialysis who was admitted to our hospital due to acute cerebral infarction associated with a cardiac calcified amorphous tumor (CAT). The patient presented with recurrent episodes of syncope and retrograde amnesia. Brain MRI identified multiple acute cerebral infarctions, while transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed a 2.

Transaortic endarterectomy (TE) is an effective and durable method of restoring patency in the aorta afflicted with atherosclerotic disease, which most commonly affects the infrarenal aorta and common iliac artery. When the suprarenal aorta is involved, the disease is usually confined to the orifices of the visceral vessels without obstruction of the aortic lumen. In rare cases, dense, calcified, exophytic, and amorphous lesions causing severe luminal obstruction, termed coral reef atherosclerosis (CRA) of the suprarenal aorta, may occur.

Introduction: Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma (MCA) of the breast remains a relatively rare condition, and to date, there is no systematic summary of its imaging manifestations. Therefore, this report presents a detailed account of the diagnosis and treatment of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma in a 40-year-old woman, with a particular focus on imaging findings. Additionally, we conducted a comprehensive literature review on this disease and summarized its key imaging features.
