Multiple cavernous hemangiomas of the spleen: CT findings.

Diffuse cavernous hemangiomatosis of the spleen is a rare condition, but it is considered the most common benign tumor to involve the spleen. Computed tomography and ultrasound are useful and effective methods for evaluating the spleen for the presence of multiple hemangiomas, the diagnosis of which is otherwise difficult to establish. This report emphasizes the sonographic and CT findings of the condition and reviews the pathological and clinical features.

CT and MR imaging in the evaluation of retroperitoneal fibrosis.

We have performed CT and MR on five patients with biopsy proven retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF). Magnetic resonance (MR) accurately displayed a retroperitoneal mass of low signal intensity on T1-weighted scans and of heterogeneous medium signal intensity on T2-weighted scans. The coronal MR views demonstrated a retroperitoneal mass: the shape, signal intensity, and effects on the ureters and major vessels appear characteristic of RPF.
