The polar vessel sign: insights from CT imaging analysis in Asian Indian primary hyperparathyroidism.
Endocrine
October 2024
Department of Endocrinology, Seth G.S. Medical College and K.E.M. Hospital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400012, India.
Purpose: Data on the polar vessel sign (enlarged feeding vessel terminating in parathyroid lesions) on four-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT) is limited. We performed a retrospective analysis to determine the prevalence, predictors, and adjunctive utility of polar vessel sign in pre-operative 4D-CT of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).
Methods: One radiologist blinded to the patients' details reported the 4D-CT of eighty-four operated patients with histopathology-proven single-gland PHPT.

Introduction And Importance: Giant cell tumors of bone (GCTB) are infrequent tumors that usually impact the epiphyses of long bones and uncommonly manifest in the ribs. Herein, we report a case of asymptomatic GCTB directly invading the lung tissue.
Case Presentation: A 36-year-old man was referred to our emergency department with only left chest pain.

J Thorac Imaging
September 2021
Departments of Radiology.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristic thoracic multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) findings of pathologically proven inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the lung in children in the era of modern understanding based on refined pathologic diagnosis.
Materials And Methods: All pediatric patients (age 18 y and above) with a known pathologic diagnosis of IMT of the lung who underwent thoracic MDCT studies from May 2008 to December 2020 were included. Two pediatric radiologists independently evaluated thoracic MDCT studies for the presence of abnormalities in the lung (nodule, mass, cyst, ground-glass opacity, consolidation), pleura (pleural effusion, pneumothorax), and mediastinum and hilum (lymphadenopathy).
Pericardial Tumor, a Rare Manifestation of Sjogren's Syndrome Secondary to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Internal Medicine, Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, PAK.
We are presenting a case of pericardial tumor in an elderly female patient who presented with low-grade fever, purpuric rashes all over the body, grittiness in the eyes, and dry mouth with decreased oral intake, night sweats, weight loss, chest pain, and dyspnea. She was diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with positive anti-nuclear antibody (ANA), anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-ds-DNA), and anti-Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibodies (SS-A/Ro) antibodies. Computerized tomography scan of the chest with contrast showed multiple calcified mediastinal lymph nodes and a well-defined solid cystic lesion adjacent to the left atrial appendage in favor of a pericardial tumor with minimal pericardial effusion.
