Tumoral calcinosis.

Tumoral calcinosis is a rare entity of unknown etiology. In this condition nodular calcareous masses are deposited in the soft tissues around juxtaarticular areas. It occurs in young healthy subjects with normocalcemia. Hyperphosphatemia is only rarely present.

Hamartoma--a benign intraluminal tumor of the oesophagus (a case report).

Benign tumours of the oesophagus are rare, representing less than 1% of all oesophageal neoplasms. Most of them are intramural leiomyomas while the other benign tumours are encountered only infrequently; among these pedunculated intraluminal hamartomas form a particularly rare group. We present here one such case.

Calcified hypernephroma. A case report.

Pattern of classification in an renal neoplasm is variable. If calcium is located nonperipherally (within the mass) it is more likely to be a renal cell carcinoma. But peripheral calcification does not rule out malignancy.

Adult

Bilateral pulmonary aneurysm in Behçet's disease (a case report).

While investigating a chest opacity in Behcet's disease possibility of pulmonary aneurysm should be considered. Contrast enhanced CT is a safe diagnostic method which is useful in confirming or excluding the presence of an aneurysm in such cases. We report here the first case of bilateral pulmonary aneurysms in Behcet's disease.

Adult

Primary mediastinal embryonal cell carcinoma.

It is now widely accepted that germinal cell tumors can arise primarily in the mediastinum. Primary extragenital seminoma has been documented arising in the mediastinum but very few reports are available about primary mediastinal embryonal cell carcinoma. We report a case of this rare condition with radiological and CT features.

Adult

Pulmonary pseudoaneurysm.

A case of pseudoaneurysm with erosion of both pulmonary and bronchial vessels is reported. The diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography followed by intravenous digital subtraction angiography. It was removed surgically.

Adult
