Congenital intrathoracic kidney in a patient undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.

Intrathoracic kidney is a rare congenital anomaly. It appears as a posterior mediastinal mass on chest X-ray. Most cases are asymptomatic and are discovered accidentally.

Pedunculated endocardial left ventricular fibroma presenting with cerebral and bilateral peripheral embolization.

Left ventricular fibroma is a rare benign tumour of the heart. We present the case of a 24-year-old man with left hemiplegia and bilateral popliteal artery occlusion associated with left ventricular mass. The patient underwent successful excision of a pedunculated mass attached to the trabeculae of left ventricular cavity.
