We describe histopathologically confirmed intracranial metastasis of cutaneous lymphoma. In magnetic resonance (MR) images there was a heterogeneous, contrast-enhancing, extraaxial mass in the right parietal and piriform lobes at the level of the optic chiasm. Our MR imaging findings are consistent with reports in humans in that lymphoma masses have indistinct borders that are iso- to hyperintense relative to adjacent gray matter on T2-weighted images. Our report varies from findings in humans in that the mass was extraaxial, whereas masses reported in humans are intraaxial. Contrast enhancement can be heterogeneous, as in our report, or homogeneous.

Development of a Polygenic Risk Score for Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease Prediction in UK Biobank.
Genes (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Nutrition and Dietetics, School of Health Science and Education, Harokopio University, 17671 Athens, Greece.
Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the leading cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality. Although the invasive liver biopsy remains the golden standard for MASLD diagnosis, Magnetic Resonance Imaging-derived Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) is an accurate, non-invasive method for the assessment of treatment response. This study aimed at developing a Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) to improve MRI-PDFF prediction using UK Biobank data to assess an individual's genetic liability to MASLD.

Article Synopsis
- Hemifacial Spasm is a neurological disorder causing involuntary facial muscle spasms, mainly affecting quality of life, and can be categorized into primary and secondary types.
- Epidemiological data show it is more prevalent among women and older adults, often linked to vascular issues and specific gene expressions.
- Diagnosis involves MRI to identify nerve compression and white matter lesions, while treatment ranges from botulinum toxin injections to microvascular decompression, with additional alternative therapies available for severe cases.
Presentation: We present a case of 50-year-old lady who present with 1-month history of uncontrolled hypertension.
Diagnosis: Magnetic resonance angiography showed stenosis of the left renal artery just beyond the ostium extending over approximately 7mm in length. Computed tomography angiography show focal narrowing of the proximal renal artery just distal to vessel origin, approximately 60% stenosis.
Low-grade intraductal carcinoma in minor salivary glands: A case report and clinical insights.
J Oral Maxillofac Pathol
April 2024
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Aristotle University, General Hospital of Thessaloniki G. Papanikolaou, Thessaloniki, Greece.
Rationale: Low-grade intraductal carcinoma (LG-IC), is a rare malignant tumour of the salivary glands which has a very good prognosis and must be differentiated from the other types of salivary gland malignant tumours, which have a totally different behaviour and a worse prognosis.
Patient Concerns: A case is presented of a 52-year-old woman who was first diagnosed and treated in another clinic in 2019 for an LG-IC in the left submandibular gland space. Two years later, she was admitted to our department with a new lesion, this time in the upper jaw lip on the left side, which also turned out to be LG-IC.
Removal of schwannoma from the psoas muscle with intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
February 2024
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Pohang Stroke and Spine Hospital, Pohang, South Korea.
Rationale: The incidence of a schwannoma within the psoas muscle is rare, and only a few cases have been reported. The surgical approach to removing schwannomas present in the psoas muscle is challenging because of its anatomical proximity to the lumbar plexus.
Patient Concerns: A 31-year-old man experienced right lower back pain and anterolateral thigh numbness for 2 months.
