AbstractMolar pregnancy in cesarean scar is an extremely rare condition. It has a high risk of uterine rupture and bleeding. There is a small number of case reports in the literature, so the optimal diagnostic algorithms and management are not clear. We reported a 25-year-old woman who presented to our clinic with amenorrhea for 40 days and vaginal bleeding for 3 days. Transvaginal ultrasonography and serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) level raised suspicion of a molar cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was conducted for further knowledge of the characteristics of the mass. Careful suction curettage under ultrasound guidance was performed. The histologic examination of the tissue confirmed a partial hydatidiform mole. The differential diagnosis between CSP and molar CSP is extremely challenging. Serum hCG, sonogram, and MRI are our tools, but none of them suffice for a definitive diagnosis. Histological examination of the postoperative sample is still the gold standard for the diagnosis of molar CSP; however, MRI can assist in planning the necessary interventions.

Objective Implantation of the pregnancy in a cesarean scar is a rare condition named ; Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). Maternal complications can be prevented with the early diagnosis and an appropriate management .It is a Prospective clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and success rate of single dose use of methotrexate (MTX) followed by dilation and suction (D&S) regimen in management of women with cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) . Methods 50mg of MTX in the form of a single dose Intramuscular injection then cervical dilatation and suction aspiration with a Karman cannula(D&S) under guidance of ultrasound after 48 preeceeded by vaginal misoprostol 2 tablet (200 mg) 4 hours ago. Results The mean gestational age at diagnosis was (8.5±1.6 ) and The mean level of serum b-human chorionic gonadotropin was (7424±2.560 ) and The mean gestational age of pregnancy was (8.5±1.6 ) .88.7% is the successive rate without complication need intervention, 2 (5.7%) patients needed intrauterine Foley's catheter for 24 hours as a mechanical hemostasis . 2 (5.7 %) had laparotomy with wedge resection of the gestational sac lesion and successful repair of the uterine defect and one (2.8 %)underwent subtotal hysterectomy. Conclusion: Systemic single dose MTX injection followed by D&S is an effective and harmless management for CSP. Nevertheless more studies are required to prove the efficiency, safety, and reproductive outcome of variant modalities in treatment of CSP.

The increasing use of radiological examination, especially magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), will probably increase the risk of unintended discovery of bone marrow abnormalities in patients where a hematologic disease would not be expected. In this paper we present four patients with different hematologic malignancies of nonplasma cell types. In all patients the MRI bone marrow abnormalities represent an initial presentation of the disease. These case reports illustrate the importance of a careful diagnostic follow-up without delay of patients with MRI bone marrow abnormalities, because such abnormalities can represent the first sign of both acute promyelocytic leukemia as well as other variants of acute leukemia.

Spinal epidural haematoma is a rare condition, which may be due to trauma, surgery, epidural catheterisation or disorders of coagulation. We report a case of 60 year old lady who was on warfarin for Atrial fibrillation (AF) presented with history of non-traumatic sudden onset pain in both legs and difficulty in walking. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) spine demonstrated epidural haematoma which was treated conservatively. Another dilemma was anticoagulation for AF. We examine the options to manage such case.

Knee pain is a common reason for adolescent calls or visits to a primary care clinician. The authors present a case of an 14-year-old male adolescent with progressive bilateral nociceptive somatic knee pain. The pain was worse with weight bearing, and relieved at rest. It was located over the medial joint line. The patient was treated conservatively with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and a rehabilitation program. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed bone marrow oedema, and Focal Periphyseal Oedema (FOPE) diagnosis was made. After a total of 6 months of treatment, the patient was asymptomatic. The literature is limited to a few case reports and radiologic studies describing this symptomatic physeal pathology, not reporting physical examination or treatment. The goals of this case report were to elucidate physicians of this condition, a newly reported cause of knee pain in adolescent, and to elicit the importance of a patient-tailored rehabilitation program in the treatment of this finding. FOPE is a clinical entity that should not be ignored and must be treated for the patient’s comfort. It is a self-limited condition and has an excellent prognosis.

Abstract Aim: Here we report a molar pregnancy with a coexisting fetus progressing to a viable, healthy infant which is an extreme rarity, with the incidence of 0.005–0.01% of all the pregnancies. Background: Partial mole is defined as excessive trophoblastic proliferation with normal and hydropic villi and presence of a fetus or a fetal circulation with nucleated cells. Partial molar pregnancy with a singleton live fetes is a rare condition. it is commonly seen with twin gestation and it is rare with singleton pregnancy Case report: A 30 years old primigravida, referred from a private hospital at 38 weeks of gestation delivered a phenotypically normal and healthy infant 2200 gm in weight by caesarean section. The placenta weighed 500 gms and on sectioning revealed widespread, grape-like vesicles. Light microscopy revealed normal villi coexisting with villi showing hydropic change and cistern formation and diffuse circumferential trophoblastic hyperplasia consistent with molar change. A diagnosis of partial molar pregnancy with normal fetus was made. Conclusion: Very few twin pregnancies with a hydatidiform mole and a foetus continue to term as they often have spontaneous or induced terminations for maternal complications Management of molar changes associated with normal appearing fetus still remains challenging as not many studies have been done due to rarity of this disorder. Clinical significance: Though the general trend is to terminate pregnancy in foetus with coexistent mole in anticipation of complications, under close surveillance, optimal outcomes can be achieved. Monitoring of serum β-hCG, serial ultrasound for fetal growth, size of molar component, and theca lutein cysts can help to predict good patient outcomes.

Space Occupying Lesion

Simultaneous spinal and intracranial chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a rare entity. A 67-year-old man visited our hospital due to headache after diving into a river 2 weeks before. Non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed bilateral intracranial CSDH. The bilateral CSDH was evacuated and his symptoms improved. Three days after craniotomy, he complained of sensory disturbance on his buttocks. Lumbar MRI showed a space-occupying lesion behind the thecal sac at L5. CT with myelography showed a subdural mass lesion; there was no communication with the subarachnoid space. Fourteen days after craniotomy, L5 laminectomy was performed and the dura mater was incised carefully. The video shows that a liquid hematoma similar to the intracranial CSDH flowed out, followed by cerebrospinal fluid. His symptoms improved after the operation and the hematoma did not recur. This is a rare condition of spinal CSDH demonstrated by neuroimaging and intraoperative video.
