Invasive Treatment

Background: Multiple splenic artery aneurysms (MSAAs) are rare and there are few reports about their treatment. We herein present a rare case of MSAAs treated with splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization.Methods: A 51-year-old female patient was incidentally diagnosed with MSAAs. Splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization was the chosen treatment.Outcomes: The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged from the hospital 5 days after splenectomy. The patient has been doing well during the 27-months of follow-up.Conclusion: Combined with the experience of the previous literature, we think splenectomy combined with endovascular embolization is a safe, reliable and minimally invasive treatment for some selected multiple SAAs, depending on several patient parameters, such as the age, sex, aneurysm dimension, aneurysm location, complications, and severity of the clinical findings.

Examination Methods

Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a skeletal developmental anomaly, which is non-hereditary in origin and idiopathic in nature. It is a benign fibro-osseous disease that affects one or more bones. It usually affects unilaterally and is seen in the posterior region. Approximately 0.5% of untreated cases show the malignant transformation. We report the case of a 35-year-old female patient with FD involving the maxilla. The clinical diagnostic approach, different imaging modalities, and histological examination methods for definitive diagnosis have been elaborated.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon tumor primarily occurring in the salivary glands and is relatively rare in other sites. In the liver, only one primary adenoid cystic carcinoma has been reported in the English literature. Here we presented a primary hepatic adenoid cystic carcinoma in a 44 years old male. We described its histopathologic features and its immunohistochemical profile, and reviewed the literature. The surgical treatment and patient follow up information was also presented.

Oral Tumors

ABSTRACT Lipomas in the oral cavity are rare benign soft tissue mesenchymal neoplasms, representing1% of all benign oral tumors. Very few cases of tonsillar lipoma have been reported in the English literature. The diagnosis and differentiation of lipoma with clinically similar lesions, such as squamous papilloma, adenomas, chondromas, hamartomas and teratomas, is essential for correct treatment management and follow-up. We describe a rare case of palatine tonsil lipoma in a 67-year-old female and an updated review of the sparse English literature. How to cite this article Abu-Ghanem S, Zilker V, Trejo L, Fliss DM.

Rare Case Report

A 19-year-old female patient was presented to our clinic for a pregnancy follow-up during which primary toxoplasmosis infection was diagnosed. The patient was successfully treated with spiramycin and finally delivered normally a healthy boy, on term. Serological tests (ELISA) for detection of anti-toxoplasma antibodies along with ultrasonography findings on the fetus are the gold standard for the diagnosis. Spiramycin was used for embryo protection to avoid T.gondii transmission to the fetus across the placenta.

We present a review of the literature and own case report of prenatal diagnosis of epignatus at 31 week of gestation. Ultrasound of the fetus revealed a massive formation of solid structure of the blubber of the mouth. The size of epignatus was 3,0  3,0  2,8 cm, intratumoral blood flow was not determined, the amount of amniotic fluid was normal. With the progression of pregnancy the tumor size has not increased. After the birth the neonate was an independent breath. Carried out surgical treatment with a positive effect. The diagnosis of epignatus confirmed by histological examination.

Computed Tomography Guidance

Osteoid osteoma (OO) usually occurs in the extremities of young adults. The tumor can arise in any part of the skeletal tissue; however, it is rarely found in the rib, with limited reports to date. In this report, we present a rare case of OO arising in the rib, which was successfully treated under computed tomography guidance with minimal invasiveness. At the final follow-up after 4 years, no local recurrence was observed.
