The article is devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of focal formations mammary gland. To clarify the diagnosis, it is important complex research: ultrasound, x-ray mammography, fine needle aspiration biopsy, magnetic resonance imaging, etc. Traditionally, the last stage of diagnosis and conventional treatment in clinical practice remains a sectoral resection with urgent histological examination of the surgical material. The proposed method of vacuum aspiration-resection biopsy is a promising minimally invasive technology and allows you to delete all visualized by means sonography the non-palpable tumors up to 2 cm. The advantage of this method is its minimal invasiveness, the use of local anesthesia and outpatient settings. According to the authors, in the future, the method of vacuum aspiration-resection biopsy can significantly reduce the number of traditional sectoral resections with lower financial costs. The authors emphasize the predominance in perspective the method of vacuum aspiration-resection biopsy to clarify the diagnosis of focal formations up to 1 cm, especially non-palpable character.

Objective. The prevalence of thyroid nodularity in children has been estimated to be 1.8%. The reported prevalence of specific diseases which comprise these nodules is conflicting as evidenced by a reported range of malignancy of 2 to 50% in solitary nodules. In order to better classify pediatric (<18 years old) thyroid disease and evaluate the utility of fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in this patient population, we retrospectively reviewed 66 FNABs from 64 thyroid nodules and 2 perithyroid lymph nodes from 57 patients. Methodology. Patients: The study was composed of 8 males and 49 females who ranged in age from 1 to 18 years old (mean = 13.1). Design: Surgical and/or clinical follow-up was obtained in all patients. The 66 FNAB diagnoses were initially classified into specific diseases. However, for the purpose of this review, the cases were classified as: 3 insufficient, 51 benign, 8 suspicious, and 4 malignant. Results. There were no "false positives" and one "false negative" (a papillary carcinoma was misdiagnosed as a benign nodule). Overall, 10 patients (18%) had malignant thyroid lesions, including 8 papillary carcinomas and 2 follicular carcinomas. Benign diagnoses included benign nodule, cyst, lymphocytic thyroiditis, granulomatous thyroiditis, hyperplasia, and abscess. Conclusions. The prevalence of malignancy in pediatric patients with thyroid nodules was 18%. We conclude that, because of its high diagnostic accuracy and minimal invasiveness, FNAB is useful in the management of pediatric thyroid nodules.

Abstract Background:Pancreatic tuberculosis is a rare disease, even in immuocompentent hosts. Abdominal tuberculosis involving the pancreatic head and peripancreatic areas may simulate pancreatic head carcinoma.Case presentation: We herein present the case of a 32-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital for intermittent epigastric pain and weight loss. Computed tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass in the head of the pancreas.The lesion was initially diagnosed as pancreatic head carcinoma on abdominal imaging. Laparotomy confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic tuberculosis, while he test for acid-fast bacilli was negative before operation and the patient fully recovered after six month of standard anti-tuberculosis treatment.Conclusions: The present case is reported to emphasize the importance of including pancreatic tuberculosis in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic lesions, under the premise of safety, we recommend endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy for diagnosis.

One of the main diagnostic methods used in diseases of the thyroid gland is ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland. Due to its availability and noninvasiveness, high information content, ultrasound is an extremely effective method of differential diagnosis of thyroid pathology. Despite the sufficient Arsenal of diagnostic methods that allows us to suspect nodal changes in the thyroid gland, a cytological biopsy is the “golden standard” in diagnostic algorithms. The use of ultrasound control methods for performing minimally invasive interventions significantly facilitates manipulation and reduces the risk of possible complications, but does not exclude the possibility of their occurrence. In connection with all the above, there is an idea to create a device that helps to facilitate the performance of a fine-needle aspiration biopsy to a specialist, reduce the risk of possible complications and increase the information content. In the Problem scientific research laboratory «Diagnostic studies and minimally invasive technologies” of the Smolensk state medical University developed a device to increase the efficiency and informational content of fine-needle aspiration biopsy under the control of ultrasound navigation in patients with nodular formations of the thyroid gland. 26 (9.5%) patients were performed fine-needle vacuum aspiration biopsy using the created device, thanks to which 18 (6.6%) patients were found to have adenomatous formation, changes in the type of subacute thyroiditis were found in 5 (1.8%) patients, and 3 (1.09%) cases of follicular neoplasia. In cases where a higher discharge is necessary for the collection of cytological material, and the developed device allows you to create conditions that increase the information content and facilitate the procedure, in addition, it is possible to perform the procedure by one specialist, which reduces the workload of several specialists in the Department dealing with minimally invasive interventions.

Ectopic cervical thymus (ECT) is an uncommon cause for cervical mass in the pediatric age group. Ultrasound and mag- netic resonance imaging findings of the mass (location along the thymic descent pathway along the thymopharyngeal tract and the identical echostructure and signal intensities to the native thymus in the superior mediastinum) would lead to the diagnosis. The diagnosis is confirmed by fine needle aspiration biopsy or histopathology after resection. The management of ECT is a conservative follow up, except in symptomatic cases with tracheal compression and histologically confirmed neoplasia where surgery is indicated. We present the case of ECT presenting as a left upper neck mass in a 12 year old girl.

Latar belakang: tumor neuroendokrin (NETs) adalah neoplasma yang dapat mensekresi hormon dengan sindrom klinis yang bervariasi. Meskipun insidennya relatif rendah, NETs merupakan tantangan klinis karena presentasi klinis yang bervariasi dan tidak ada modalitas pencitraan awal yang dapat efektif. Kasus: didapatkan 5 kasus tumor neuroendokrin selama kurun waktu 2 tahun (2008-2010). Hampir sebagian besar pasien yaitu 80% mengeluh nyeri abdomen dan 1 orang pasien (20%) dengan keluhan sulit defekasi. Dari pemeriksaan pencitraan awal, ditunjukkan bahwa terdapat 2 subjek dengan asal tumor dari pankreas, 1 dari paraaorta kiri, 1 dari supra-renalis, dan 1 dari presakral. Pemeriksaan jaringan tumor melalui FNAB (fine needle aspiration biopsy) mengonfirmasi adanya Malignant Neuroendocrine Tumor pada semua pasien. Pada pemeriksaan penanda jaringan intraseluler semua menunjukkan peningkatan NSE yaitu berkisar dari 30,9-218,40 ng/ml. Dari penilaian resektabilitas tumor didapatkan 1 orang resektabel, 3 orang non-resektabel, dan 1 orang lagi menolak tindakan. Pada sebuah kasus dilakukan reseksi luas, yaitu tumor neuroendokrin pre-sakral yang sudah infiltrasi ke os sakrum (S3-4). Selama follow up paska operasi pasien ini didapatkan metastasis pada hepar dan meninggal 2 tahun kemudian. Simpulan: tumor neuroendokrin adalah bentuk neoplasma yang jarang dan muncul dengan berbagai variasi klinis. Penegakan diagnosis jaringan dapat dilakukan dengan FNAB guiding USG (ultrasonografi) atau CT dan pemeriksaan penanda jaringan NSE. Penentuan resektabilitas tumor dapat dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan CT, MSCT (multislice computed tomography) atau MRI (magnetic resonance imaging. Kesulitan dalam hal tindakan dan mortalitas yang tinggi disebabkan karena hampir sebagian besar pasien datang dalam keadaan tumor yang sudah lanjut.

Abstract Five canine patients were directed to low-field magnetic resonance imaging due to different neurological defects. In each case there were heterogeneous extraaxial masses covering left or right dorsal parietal and occipital lobes that were isointense to the brain on T1-weighted Spin Echo images, isointense to hypointense to the brain on T2-weighted Fast Spin Echo sequences and hypointense to the brain on Flair sequence. After MRI study fine needle aspiration biopsy of the tumors was performed. On the basis of the cytological examination fibrosarcomas with of moderate malignancy were diagnosed.
