We had experience with a case of mesenchymal hamartoma of the chest wall (MHCW) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). We reported the first case of asymptomatic MHCW in a child with preoperative PET/CT. Mesenchymal hamartoma of the chest wall is a rare benign tumor that usually presents as a visible chest wall mass or respiratory problems secondary to compression of the lung in early infancy.

The present study identified ATF3 as a novel dynamic marker for ependymal stem/progenitor cells (nestin, vimentin and SOX2 positive) around the central canal of the neonatal or adult rat spinal cord. While quiescent ependymal cells showed cytoplasmic ATF3 expression, during 6-24h in vitro these cells mobilized and acquired intense nuclear ATF3 staining. Their migratory pattern followed a centrifugal pathway toward the dorsal and ventral funiculi, reminiscent of the rostral migratory stream of the brain subventricular stem cells.

J Gynecol Obstet Biol Reprod (Paris)
December 2009
Pôle de gynécologie-obstétrique reproduction humaine, CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Hôtel-Dieu, Boulevard Léon-Malfreyt, 63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France.
Objective: To describe invasive diagnostic procedures (amniocentesis/choriocentesis) and subsequent risks in twin pregnancies.
Material And Methods: PubMed and Cochrane database investigations were conducted using following key words: twin gestation, amniocentesis, chorionic villous sampling, karyotype. Guidelines for twin management edicted by different societies were reviewed.
Imaging of the scrotum: role of MRI.
Radiol Med
April 2009
U.O. Radiodiagnostica, Ospedale Civile S. Maria delle Croci, 48100, Ravenna, Italy.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of imaging for correct clinical and therapeutic management of patients with scrotal disease.
Materials And Methods: Between 2000 and 2007, 801 patients with suspected scrotal disease underwent colour Doppler ultrasonography (CDUS) at our centre. In 46 patients, the CDUS study was followed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Laparoscopic visualization and dissection of retroperitoneal lymph nodes after patent blue dye injection: a pilot study.

Department of Urology, Gülhane Military Medical Academy, Ankara, Turkey.
Purpose: Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) for testicular cancer is an important treatment modality for patients with stage I or IIA disease. Several urologists have previously reported the feasibility and usefulness of laparoscopic RPLND for such patients. The aim of this experimental pilot-feasibility study was to investigate whether visualization of retroperitoneal lymph nodes with patent blue violet (PBV) dye application is a feasible and an effective method during laparoscopic RPLND in a pig model.
