This paper reports the case of 34-year-old woman who presented with bilateral renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs). On the right side, there was a large AML with a fatty thrombus extending to the right atrium. The treatment consisted of right nephrectomy and complete thrombectomy with extracorporeal circulation and right atriotomy. Postoperatively, the patient was septic and died on postoperative day 7 because of septic shock.

Oftentimes, incidental findings are made on routine diagnostic imaging. An intra- and extravascular lipoma is one example of an important incidental finding. Intravascular lipomas are rare benign vascular tumors that are typically asymptomatic.

Background: Recently, the number of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its more advanced condition, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), has been increasing. These patients are at a higher risk of cardiovascular events and thromboembolism. However, the direct impact of high-fat diet (HFD), a cause of MASLD, on liver coagulation function is not well understood.

Background: The liver-heart axis potentially influences the risk of mortality in patients with heart failure. We aimed to identify the clinical utility of the fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index in patients with heart failure for predicting mortality in the context of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Methods: Patients with heart failure and a subsample of healthy participants were enrolled in the MyoVasc study (NCT04064450) and followed for nine years.

Endothelial cells (ECs) form the inner lining of blood vessels that is crucial for vascular function and homeostasis. They regulate vascular tone, oxidative stress, and permeability. Dysfunction leads to increased permeability, leukocyte adhesion, and thrombosis.

Introduction: Fibroadipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) was described in 2014 as a distinct entity characterised by intramuscular replacement with fibro fatty tissue along with complex vascular malformation, phelbectesia, venous thrombosis and lymphatic involvement. Somatic mutations in the PIK3CA gene are detected in most lesions which diagnosed the FAVA in our report and occurrence of this mutation seems to be sporadic.
Case Report: Common presentation is a painful intramuscular swelling in young women - as was the presentation here in an 11 year girl with the swelling of the right thigh.
