A 62-year-old woman presented to the hospital
Primary bone xanthoma is a rare type of tumor, and those developing primarily within the skull are even more unusual. In this case, a primary bone xanthoma of the clivus without endocrine or metabolic complications represents the first of this type to be reported. The patient, a 24-year-old woman,
We report the imaging features of a rare case of xanthoma in the floor of the anterior cranial fossa involving the frontal bone and orbit. A 42-year-old man presented with a history of proptosis, headache, and hyperlipidemia. Computed tomography demonstrated a well-circumscribed, homogenous,
Cutaneous Pneumocystis jirovecii infection is rare. It is thought that the disease emerges from a latent infection delivered via hematogenous and/or lymphatic dissemination from a primary lung infection in immunocompromised individuals. A 32-year-old human immunodeficiency virus-positive male was
Bone xanthoma is an extremely rare and benign tumor in terms of its nature and growth over time. We describe the first case coexisting with ventriculomegaly secondary to aqueduct stenosis (non-tumoral hydrocephalus), the second xanthoma of the clivus described to date. The patient was a 51-year-old
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia is a genetic disorder characterised by substantially raised LDL cholesterol, reduced LDL receptor function, xanthomas, and cardiovascular disease before age 20 years. Conventional therapy is with statins, ezetimibe, and apheresis. We aimed to assess the
We present a 69-year-old woman who presented with chronic headaches and was found to have a pituitary mass on MRI, which was biopsied and said to be lymphocytic hypophysitis. The woman was placed on prednisone and followed with routine eye examinations. Two years later, the lesion gradually
