Pedunculated hemangioma is a rare and atypical hepatic angioma. We report the case of a pedunculated hepatic hemangioma presenting as an abdominal sub-hepatic mass incidentally discovered in a 66-year-old woman with anal cancer. The diagnosis was strongly suggested by the vascular features of the lesion on spiral computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. A surgical removal of the mass was decided to prevent potential risk of ischemic volvulus along the pedicle. Histo-pathological examination confirmed this diagnosis. Contrast enhanced thin sections and subsequent multiplanar reconstructions on CT and MR are very helpful to show the angioma features and the pedicle linking the lesion with the liver.

Purpose: To present a patient who developed an asymptomatic large iliac pseudoaneurysm complicating stent-supported iliac artery recanalization. Case Report: The pseudoaneurysm was detected in an asymptomatic 69-year-old man during routine angiography 6 months after an uncomplicated procedure to implant 3 overlapping Palmaz stents in an occluded external iliac artery. There was no evidence of stent infection. During a second intervention, the pseudoaneurysm was successfully treated by percutaneous implantation of an EndoPro System I stent-graft. Contrast-enhanced spiral computed tomography at 6 and 12 months confirmed the durability of aneurysm exclusion and the patency of the endoprosthesis. Conclusions: Angioplasty-induced pseudoaneurysm is rare and usually asymptomatic, but elective percutaneous stent-graft repair should be considered as the first treatment option.

Polypoid Tumor

We present a rare cause of intestinal obstruction in an adult, due to ileo-colic intussusception by a lipoma of the ileo-cecal valve and its ultrasonographic presentation. The case presented in emergency for spontaneously appearing and disappearing palpable elastic mass in the right iliac fossa. The ultrasonographic examination raised the suspicion of an ileo-colic intussusception due to a polypoid tumor. The contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed the finding and suggested that the polypoid tumor was more likely a lipoma. Right hemicolectomy and cholecystectomy were performed and the pathological examination confirmed the lipoma. The evolution of the patient was favourable and uneventful.

Anterior Cruciate

CONTEXT: A ganglion is a cystic formation close to joints or tendinous sheaths, frequently found in the wrist, foot or knee. Intra-articular ganglia of the knee are rare, and most of them are located in the anterior cruciate ligament. The clinical picture for these ganglia comprises pain and movement restrictions in the knee, causing significant impairment to the patient. Symptoms are non-specific, and anterior cruciate ligament ganglia are usually diagnosed through magnetic resonance imaging or arthroscopy. Not all ganglia diagnosed through magnetic resonance imaging need to undergo surgical treatment: only those that cause clinical signs and symptoms do. Surgical results are considered good or excellent in the vast majority of cases. CASE REPORT: A 29-year-old male presented with pain in the left knee during a marathon race. Physical examination revealed limitation in the maximum range of knee extension and pain in the posterior aspect of the left knee. Radiographs of the left knee were normal, but magnetic resonance imaging revealed a multi-lobed cystic structure adjacent to the anterior cruciate ligament, which resembled a ganglion cyst. The mass was removed through arthroscopy, and pathological examination revealed a synovial cyst. Patient recovery was excellent, and he resumed his usual training routine five months later.
