Four patients with anomalous lobes of the liver were observed at MR imaging. In one patient the anterior segment of the right hepatic lobe was absent and in 3 patients the left hepatic lobe was anomalous. The hepatic vasculature supporting the information of the anomalous hepatic lobes was well observed in all patients.

A 45-year-old man with incidentally discovered, unresectable HCC were treated with TACE to the left hepatic lobe and TARE to the right hepatic lobe. Upon retrospective review, he was found to have a congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt with the absence of the portal vein (Abernethy malformation). This case report discusses variant splanchnic and portal anatomy in the setting of rare, congenital portosystemic shunts and evaluates types of liver-directed therapies for HCC in this setting.

Vasculobiliary Injury

Abstract Vasculobiliary injuries (VBI) caused by cholecystectomies are infrequent but extremely serious. We report a case of a severe VBI successfully treated at our center. A 22-year-old woman underwent an open cholecystectomy as treatment for acute cholecystitis and bile duct stones. She was transferred to our center on postoperative Day 4 because of progressive jaundice and encephalopathy. After a proper investigation, we found an extreme VBI with infarction of the right hepatic lobe associated with complete interruption of the portal vein and proper hepatic artery flows and full section of the common hepatic duct. Right hepatectomy with portal—Rex shunt revascularization of the left hepatic lobe and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy to the left hepatic duct was done. The patient was discharged on the 60th postoperative day. Discussion: This case shows the successful surgical treatment of a severe cholecystectomy’s VBI, avoiding an emergency liver transplant.

The aim of the study is to define age and gender regularities of the linear morphometric parameters of the liver in children and adolescents on the basis of intravital imaging findings.Material and methods. The authors analyzed computed tomograms of the abdominal cavity in 75 children without visible pathology. All patients were divided into 4 groups depending on their age: early childhood, first childhood, second childhood, adolescence. The transverse, anteroposterior and vertical dimensions of the right and left hepatic lobes were investigated on 16-slice computed tomographs. The obtained findings were processed using variational statistical analysis, the mean value (M), standard error (m) and the statistical significance were defined using the Student's t-test.Results. There was a significant increase in the anteroposterior size of the right hepatic lobe in separate sections at different age periods. A statistical significance between the parameters of the anteroposterior size of the right hepatic lobe was registered in girls and boys within the following groups: on one section in the 2nd group of patients, on two sections in the 4th group of patients. A statistical significance between the parameters of the transverse size of the right hepatic lobe was registered on one section (ThXII) in the 2nd and 3rd groups, and on two (ThXI and LI) and three (ThXI, ThXII and LI) sections in the 3rd and 4th groups of girls and boys, respectively. A statistical significance between the parameters of the transverse size of the right hepatic lobe in girls and boys were recorded only in the 4th group on three sections (ThXI, ThXII and LI). The vertical size of the right hepatic lobe was significantly higher in the 2nd and 4th groups, and the differences in the parameters between girls and boys were noted only among adolescents. A significant increase in the anteroposterior size of the left hepatic lobe was registered only in girls of the 2nd and 3rd groups on two sections (ThXII and LI); a significant increase in the transverse size was only registered at the LI level in these groups of patients. A significant increase in the vertical size of the left hepatic lobe was only detected in girls of the first childhood compared with girls of the early childhood. No statistical significance was registered for any of the linear parameters of the left hepatic lobe between girls and boys of the same groups.Conclusion. Thus, there was a significant increase in the anteroposterior and transverse dimensions of the right hepatic lobe in separate sections and an increase in the vertical size between individual groups of the studied patients, as well as a statistical significance between girls and boys of the same group. A significant increase in the anteroposterior and transverse dimensions of the left hepatic lobe was detected only in girls of the 2nd and 3rd groups if compared with the girls of the 1st group. No significant differences were registered between girls and boys of the same groups for any of the linear parameters of the left hepatic lobe.

Abstract Introduction Corona virus disease (COVID-19) pandemic can cause myriad of ocular manifestations. We report a case of unilateral multi focal central serous retinopathy, post COVID-19 infection in an Asian Indian female. Case presentation A 42-year-old female presented to us with unilateral blurring, in the right eye (OD), 12 days after COVID-19 infection. She had fever, chills, shortness of breath and cough with tiredness and was COVID- RT PCR positive. She was administered intravenous and oral antibiotics with injection heparin/remdesivir, during her 7 day stay at the hospital. She was also on steroid inhalers. She had no systemic history of note. On ocular evaluation, her corrected distance visual acuity was 20/40 in OD and 20/20 in left eye (OS). Anterior segment was normal. Anterior vitreous was clear. Fundus examination of the OD showed central serous retinopathy (CSCR) with OS being normal. Conclusion CSCR can occur post COVID-19 due to steroid administration and physicians administering it should be aware of this and refer the patients to an ophthalmologist earlier.

Uveal Effusion

We report a case of posterior uveal effusion (UE) with a long-term follow-up that has occurred following cataract surgery. A 64-year-old woman presented with diminished vision of the right eye (RE) 3 weeks after an uneventful phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation. Complete ophthalmic examination including fluorescein angiography (FA), indocyanine green angiography (ICGA), echography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the RE was 20/50. Anterior segment and intraocular pressure were unremarkable. OCT revealed prominent folds of the choroid and retina, subretinal fluid and darkening of the choroid with reduced visibility of the choroidal vessels and the scleral border. The left eye (LE) was unremarkable. BCVA of the LE was: 20/20. After topical anti-inflammatory and systemic corticosteroid therapy for 5 months, no morphological change of the macula was seen. The patient was observed without any treatment. Forty-three months after the cataract surgery and 38 months after cessation of the corticosteroid therapy, OCT revealed a normal macular morphology and the BCVA improved to 20/25. Even though rare, UE at the posterior pole may occur after modern cataract surgery. OCT examination is a reliable tool in monitoring the macular morphology. Since morphological and functional improvement can be seen in long-term, observation may be considered for some cases of posterior UE with resistance to the therapy.
