A Rare Case of Linear Phlebolith: Foreign Body Discovered in the Femoral Vein.
Case Rep Surg
January 2025
Division of Vascular Surgery, Department of Surgery, College of Medicine, King Saud University, Riyadh 11322, Saudi Arabia.
Phlebolith is a term that refers to round-shaped calcified thrombi commonly located in the pelvic region. The occurrence of dense, linear calcifications or phlebolith-like formations within the soft tissues of the lower extremities, particularly in the superficial femoral, greater saphenous, or popliteal veins, is rare. This study presents the case of a 73-year-old woman who was being evaluated for postmenopausal bleeding.

Department of Medicine and Technological Innovation, University of Insubria, Varese, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- This study examines how the growth and calcification of the appendicular skeleton in the Raja asterias affects its movement in water, highlighting the link between bone structure and fin mechanics.
- It identifies two growth patterns—crustal in larger skeletal parts and catenated in fin radials—showing how differences in development can influence fin flexibility and locomotion.
- The results suggest that unique calcification patterns, especially in the pelvic fins, evolve to meet the mechanical needs of swimming, emphasizing the adaptability of Batoidea fins through their joint structures and specialized designs.
Prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis in adults: recommendations from the European Calcified Tissue Society.
Eur J Endocrinol
November 2024
Department of Rheumatology, Amsterdam University Medical Center, Amsterdam 1081HV, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- - The report by the European Calcified Tissue Society (ECTS) outlines evidence-based recommendations for preventing and treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) in adults, aimed at healthcare providers who may not specialize in bone health.
- - Experts reviewed the literature and created 25 recommendations that categorize patients based on their fracture risk: medium, high, and very high, considering factors like age and history of fractures for appropriate treatment strategy.
- - Key general measures include optimizing calcium and vitamin D intake, assessing fracture risk regularly for those on glucocorticoids for three months or longer, and minimizing fall risks among patients.
Noncalcified Gallstone Ileus in Computed Tomography (CT) Abdomen and Pelvis With Contrast.
Cureus
September 2024
Radiology, Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust, East Surrey Hospital, Redhill, GBR.
Gallstone ileus is a rare but serious complication of chronic cholecystitis, causing mechanical small bowel obstruction. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) plays a key role in radiological diagnosis. The classic findings are known as Rigler's triad, comprised of pneumobilia, small bowel obstruction, and calcified gallstones.

Ann Med Surg (Lond)
October 2024
Division of Urology, Department of Surgery, American University of Beirut Medical Center, Beirut, Lebanon.
Introduction And Importance: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common primary renal malignancy in patients between the ages of 50 and 70. A rare described variant of RCC is transcription factor for immunoglobulin heavy-chain enhancer 3 (TFE3) rearranged RCC. Osseous metaplasia, which refers to the occurrence of normal bone tissue in soft tissue, has been observed in all subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC); however, only three previous case reports have documented the occurrence of osseous metaplasia in TFE3-rearranged RCC.
