AbstractLhermitte–Duclos disease, also known as dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma, is a rare hamartomatous tumor localized in cerebellum. An association with Cowden syndrome is observed in 50% of cases who present with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure and cerebellar ataxia. These patients have specific magnetic resonance imaging and histopathological findings. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Here, we report a case of a young female with traumatic frontal hemorrhage associated with Lhermitte–Duclos disease.

✓Iophendylate (Pantopaque or Myodil) was commonly used from the 1940s until the late 1980s for myelography, cisternography, and ventriculography. Although such instances are rare, several different long-term sequelae have been described in the literature and associated with intrathecal iophendylate. The authors describe an unusual case of arachnoiditis caused by residual thoracic iophendylate imitating an expansile intramedullary lesion on magnetic resonance images obtained 30 years after the initial myelographic injection.

Neuroretinitis from neurosyphilis is an uncommon finding in previously healthy young individuals. A 37-year-old presented with three days of painless, unilateral vision loss with an associated diffuse erythematous non-pruritic truncal rash. Physical exam demonstrated vision loss in the left eye. Fundoscopic exam showed unilateral peripapillary hemorrhage, papilledema and venous engorgement. Labs showed positive syphilis antibody qualitative. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated 12 millimeters of high right frontal lobe cerebrospinal fluid density. The patient was treated with benzylpenicillin and within 18 hours had improvement of his vision.

AbstractA 29-month-old girl had idiopathic massive pericardial effusion for over 6 months. Lymphangiography was performed for chronic and recurrent pericardial effusion and pulmonary lymphangiectasia, suspected based on CT findings. Magnetic resonance lymphangiography revealed chylolymphatic reflux from a tortuously dilated thoracic duct in the mediastinum to the pericardial space, suggesting primary chylopericardium with lymphangiectasia. Pericardial effusion resolved immediately after thoracic duct embolisation at the lower thoracic level. However, pericardial effusion recurred after 5 months, which resolved after additional embolisation of the abnormal lymphatic collateral vessels from the remnant upper thoracic duct. Here, we report an unusual case with chylous massive pericardial effusion diagnosed by magnetic resonance lymphangiography and treated with percutaneous embolisation.

The spectrum of lipomatous lesions ranges from benign to highly malignant disease. Differentiation between these lesions is important to indicate prognosis and choose the most appropriate treatment. Hemosiderotic fibrohistiocytic lipomatous lesion (HFLL) is a rare subtype of lipomatous tumor. The diagnosis is usually based on clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical information. Where magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is a suitable modality to assess fatty tumors, no data is reported on MR imaging of HFLL. Here, the MR characteristics are described in correlation with pathologic findings in a case of HFLL in the left thigh, an unusual location.

✓ The authors present an unusual case of intramedullary arachnoid cyst diagnosed in a patient after the lesion was resected. A wide decompressive surgery was performed and the lesion removed. Histopathological findings were consistent with the diagnosis of arachnoid cyst. Postoperatively the patient exhibited marked improvement in neurological status. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no case report of intramedullary arachnoid cyst reported in the literature. With the advent of newer neuroimaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging the number of cases of intramedullary arachnoid cysts encountered in the future may increase.

Quadriceps tendon rupture usually occurs in adults and is rare in children. A six-year-old boy was playing at home and had a fall. He was unable to extend his right knee but there was no gap felt over the patella tendon or quadriceps. He was first seen by a family doctor and presented late to the surgeon three months after the injury. Radiographs and ultrasound were performed. The magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the findings of partial quadriceps tear. The patient was put in a cylinder case with the knee in extension for two months. Six months post-injury, he regained full range of motion without any complications. We present an unusual case of partial quadriceps tear in an otherwise healthy six-year-old boy that was treated successfully despite a delayed presentation. Besides a high index of suspicion, magnetic resonance imaging is a good modality to detect partial quadriceps tear in children.

Upper Urinary Tract Obstruction

Ureteric endometriosis is a very rare cause of upper urinary tract obstruction. Patients presented with left ureteric colic since 1 month, two episodes severe in intensity radiating from lt loin to groin. 2x2 cm hard growth in mid ureter with dense adhesions to peritoneum, lt fallopian tube and ovary, lt internal iliac vein and serosa of sigmoid colon, left distal ureterectomy, left salpingo-oopherectomy and psoas hitch ureteric reimplantation was performed and specimen was sent for HPE. Diagnosis of left ureteric endometriosis was made on histopathological evaluation report. This diagnosis should be considered in the D/D of ureteral obstruction in a young female especially on lt side. Carefully performed surgery in the form of ureteral excision and reimplantation preserves renal function.
