Retroperitoneal lymphangioma is exceptionally rare. We present a case of a 41-year-old asymptomatic patient with a large abdominal cystic mass detected on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, initially suspected to be pseudomyxoma peritonei. Laparoscopic exploration revealed a 30 x 30 cm multilocular cystic tumour originating from the retroperitoneum.

Introduction Whole-body computed tomography angiography (CTA) may be useful during cerebral angiography and endovascular treatment (EVT), and identification of thrombi and malignant trunk tumors may be helpful in stroke typing and acute stroke care. Therefore, we aimed to assess the types and prevalence of incidental findings on whole-body CTA in this patient population. Methods This single-center, retrospective, observational study included consecutive patients with suspected acute stroke who underwent whole-body CTA in addition to brain CTA between April 2020 and August 2023.

Long-term screening with serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and systematic prostate biopsies can reduce prostate cancer mortality but leads to unacceptable overdiagnosis. Over the past decade, diagnostic methods have improved and the indolent nature of low-grade prostate cancer has been established. These advances now enable more selective detection of potentially lethal prostate cancer.

Urology, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.
Objective: In men with a raised prostate-specific antigen (PSA), MRI increases the detection of clinically significant cancer and reduces overdiagnosis, with fewer biopsies. MRI as a screening tool has not been assessed independently of PSA in a formal screening study. We report a systematic community-based assessment of the prevalence of prostate MRI lesions in an age-selected population.
