[Giant hydropic fibroma: a case report].

Hydropic degeneration of a uterine leiomyoma is common. Giant forms are uncommon. Positive diagnosis may be challenging because the differential diagnosis includes other rare uterine tumors such as leiomyosarcoma. Uterine localization, the leiomyoma volume, margins with adjacent structures are best evaluated at MRI. Final diagnosis requires gross and microscopic examination. We describe such a diagnostic challenge in a 46-year-old woman with a giant hydropic leiomyoma.

[Plasmacytoma and AIDS: unusual duodenal localization].

We report an uncommon presentation of plasmocytoma in an AIDS patient. AIDS is associated with an increased risk of neoplasms. The incidence of Plasma Cell tumors in HIV-positive patients is greater than in non-infected patients. Multiple factors contribute to B cell neoplasms development.

[Air in the bone? Diagnosis and treatment of a pneumatocyst of the ilium. Apropos of a case].

We present a case of symptomatic pneumatocyst of the ilium observed in a professional scuba diver exposed to pressure variations. Pneumatocysts are rare and except for one case reported in a clavicular localization, are always found in subchondral bone of the iliac or sacral side of the sacroiliac joint. Undoubtedly, air fills an intraosseous node. We report here the first case of efficient treatment achieved by filling the cyst via percutaneous access under scopic control.
