A thirteen-year-old boy was admitted to our hospital for further evaluation of abnormal shadow on chest film with a low grade fever. Laboratory findings revealed within normal value except for CRP. Chest film showed a smooth round mass in right middle mediastinum. In the CT scan, it was a well-defined round mass with low density in contact with sternum. With angiography, it had no relation to the great vessels. At operation, a coagulation was on the surface of a tumor. The tumor adhered to sternum and parietal pleura firmly and to aortic arch and thymus partly. But it was removed with ease "en bloc". It was dark red in color and upper part of was cystic, and lower massive. The tumor measured 9.5 x 5.0 x 5.5 cm and weighted 320 g. Histopathological findings demonstrated venous hemangioma proved by Masson trichrome stain.

Background: Improvements in the clinical diagnostic use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the identification of liver disorders have been made possible by gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA). Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology is in high demand.
Objectives: The purpose of the study is to segment the liver using an enhanced multi-gradient deep convolution neural network (EMGDCNN) and to identify and categorize a localized liver lesion using a Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI.

Background: Cavernous hemangiomas can occur in various internal organs like the liver, kidney, bladder, and skin, or even in subcutaneous tissues. However, they rarely occur in the lungs, making pulmonary cavernous hemangiomas (PCH) an uncommon finding. Herein, we report a rare case of pulmonary cavernous hemangioma that was surgically resected.
