Pregnancies within rudimentary horns of unicornuate uteri are extremely rare. These pregnancies account for approximately 1 in 76 000 to 1 in 140 000 worldwide, with uterine rupture being the most concerning complication. A case is presented of a 24-year-old female, gravida 2, para 0, who underwent multiple sonograms pertaining to two gestations over a 3-year period. Both pregnancies occurred within the left rudimentary horn of a unicornuate uterus. The left rudimentary horn was confirmed, on magnetic resonance imaging, to have no communication with the right horn or endocervical canal. The first pregnancy resulted in a missed abortion, and the second pregnancy, 3 years later, was a twin gestation, which was carefully monitored. At 20 weeks, the uterus began to rupture, and an emergency C-section was attempted. Neither the fetus nor the rudimentary horn survived, which was excised. This case demonstrates a rare uterine finding, a pregnancy occurred twice within the horn that lacked communication with the cervix.

We report a case of a 55-year-old male patient who presented with swelling over his right elbow of 5-year duration. An ultrasound examination revealed an echogenic mass within the olecranon bursa. On magnetic resonance imaging, the mass revealed the signal intensity of fat, and it was attached to the bursal lining by means of a pedicle. There was no restriction on diffusion-weighted images and no significant contrast enhancement. Excision was performed under local anesthesia. The excised specimen revealed mature fat cells on histopathology.

Abstract Massive subchorionic thrombosis (MST) is defined as a massive thrombosis under the chorionic plate, and is responsible for obstetric complications. We encountered two cases of MST. Placental abruption was misdiagnosed by ultrasound examination in Case 1, and a cesarean section was performed at 33 weeks of gestation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 21 weeks of gestation suggested MST in Case 2. A cesarean section was performed at 26 weeks’ gestation because of pregnancy-induced hypertension, fetal growth restriction and non-reassuring fetal status.

The paper is aimed at presenting several patients treated at the CCS Institute of Urology and Nephrology using the retrospective analysis, in whom differentiation of the kidney tumor change nature and size smaller than 3 cm were decisive for further treatment. Similar cases were not reported or were reported exceptionally rarely in the literature. The diagnosis was established based on ultrasound examination, intravenous urography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging as well as angiography, percutaneous biopsy and pathohistological analysis of the surgical preparation.

Three own cases of diagnosing anomalies of the relative position of the kidneys (horseshoe kidney) are presented. Two cases were diagnosed prenatally at 19+6 and 25+3 weeks of gestation, in one case no prenatal changes were identified, the diagnosis was made postnatally in the month of the child’s life. In all cases, the change was isolated. Thus, the possibility of prenatal diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney in our center was 66.7 %. In all cases the diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney was confirmed postnatally using ultrasound examination, and in one case magnetic resonance imaging of the abdominal organs was additionally performed. Prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney was possible due to the presence of adhesion of the lower poles with the whole mass and abnormal location of the kidneys, or the detection of a characteristic large parenchymal isthmus between the lower poles, located suprapertebrally. In the case of a typical location of the kidneys and the presence of a relatively thin isthmus between the poles, the diagnosis of this anomaly in the prenatal period caused certain difficulties.
