Twenty-five cases of ovarian enlargement secondary to massive edema, to a hitherto undescribed lesion that we have designated fibromatosis, or to both processes were reviewed to explore the possibility of a relation between them. The patients ranged in age from 13 to 39 years. The 14 patients with
Hyponatremia and fluid overload--the so-called TURP Syndrome--is a rare but well-understood complication of endoscopic resection of the prostate caused by rapid absorption of irrigating fluids from venous sinuses opened during the surgery. A similar syndrome occurring during endoscopic resection of
We report the case of a young primigravida who presented with a 20 weeks pregnancy with a previous diagnosis of uterine fibroid. However, ultrasound evaluation revealed the presence of a large sacro-coccygeal teratoma in the foetus which was heterogeneous with cystic areas and calcific foci, and
Four cases of massive ovarian edema (MOE) with symptoms persisting for 6 months and even up to 4 years are presented. No stromal changes other than edema were found histologically, and no functional anomalies were detected clinically. The reported cases are compared with the published data on MOE
A 53-year-old woman presented with mild right upper eyelid edema without erythema or tenderness. Postcontrast, fat-suppressed, T1-weighted MR images demonstrated a slightly enlarged, mildly enhancing right lacrimal gland, with an internal zone of hypointensity. Histopathologic examination showed
Ovarian edema is a newly recognized clinicopathologic entity. A case of massive ovarian edema is presented in which a huge abdominal mass was considered to be an ovarian cyst roentgenographically and clinically. However, ultrasound revealed the mass to be solid. Five previously reported cases in
BACKGROUND
This case report documents the affliction of the lymph vessels as a phenotypic feature of neurofibromatosis-1 (NF-1).
METHODS
Routine transthoracic echocardiography, computed tomography scan of the thorax, magnetic resonance angiography of the renal arteries, and conventional digital
OBJECTIVE
To prospectively assess the safety and technical feasibility of volumetric magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU) ablation with direct skin cooling (DISC) during treatment of uterine fibroids.
METHODS
In this proof-of-concept study, eight patients were
A 51 year old woman was admitted for night dyspneic attacks and fainting. When hospitalised the patient reported in the previous 10 days dry cough, edema and pain (left leg). The woman's medical history did not show any risk factors for vein thromboembolism, d-dimer dosage appeared increased and
OBJECTIVE
To describe the morphologic and signal intensity characteristics on magnetic resonance (MR) images of fibromas and fibrothecomas.
METHODS
MR images of 11 female patients with histologically proved fibromas or fibrothecomas were reviewed, and morphologic and signal intensity characteristics
OBJECTIVE
To prospectively evaluate the feasibility of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapeutic ablation of uterine fibroids in patients with bowel lies anterior to uterus.
METHODS
Twenty-one patients with 23 uterine fibroids underwent MR
Although acute appendicitis is a common clinical condition in general surgical practice, <1% of them are associated with malignancies. Appendiceal carcinoids make up most of those malignancies and acute appendicitis cases associated with benign cecal neoplasias are very uncommon. In this study, a
BACKGROUND
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors of the uterus and those located beneath the uterine mucosa may present as prolapsed fibroid in the vagina. Prolapsed submucous fibroid associated with complete uterovaginal prolapse is however uncommon.
METHODS
A case of irreducible complete
