Post Contrast

A 26-year-old male presented with an asymptomatic 6-cm leftparatesticular mass. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imagingconfirmed this mass as extratesticular, likely a tumour arisingfrom the left spermatic cord. The mass demonstrated marked avidenhancement on post-contrast images, suggestive of a spermaticcord sarcoma. A left inguinal exploration was performed and grossexamination of the mass revealed a well-circumscribed tumourwith a discrete capsule separating it from the ipsilateral spermaticcord. The mass was resected without performing an orchiectomyand histology demonstrated a solitary fibrous tumour (lipomatoushemangiopericytoma), with minimal proliferative activity and negativemargins. The occurrence of a paratesticular solitary fibroustumour is exceedingly rare, with only a handful of case reports.We review the literature regarding this rare entity and discuss itsdiagnosis and management.

Hypoglycaemia due to insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-2 secretion is a paraneoplastic complication of malignancy with significant morbidity that can often go unrecognised due to its uncommon presentation. We report on a case of a 51-year-old man with metastatic haemangiopericytoma presenting with refractory hypoglycaemia, requiring continuous dextrose 10% infusion while in hospital. IGF-2 levels were significantly elevated, in keeping with a rare entity associated with solitary fibrous tumours, known as Doege-Potter syndrome. The patient was managed using uncooked cornstarch in conjunction with debulking of the hepatic tumour burden with bland IR-guided transarterial embolisation, and eventual surgical resection to treat his non-islet cell tumour hypoglycaemia (NICTH). The case highlights this rare paraneoplastic phenomenon that should be included in the differential for hypoglycaemia, especially if a history of a solitary fibrous tumour is elicited. Our case is the first to document a successful approach to treating the hypoglycaemia using preoperative transarterial bland embolisation.

Abstract. A carotid artery pseudoaneurysm in an irradiated neck is a rare entity with possible devastating results and management should be multidisciplinary. We present a successful endovascular treatment of a late carotid artery pseudoaneurysm following patch endarterectomy and cervical radiotherapy.

Histologic Types

Castleman's disease is a benign lymphoid neoplasm first reported as hyperplasia of mediastinal lymph nodes. Some authors referred to the lesions as isolated tumors, described as a variant of Hodgkin's disease with a possibility of a malignant potential and others proposed that the lymphoid masses were of a hamartomatous nature. Three histologic variants and two clinical types of the disease have been described. The disease may occur in almost any area in which lymph nodes are normally found. The most common locations are thorax (63%), abdomen (11%) and axilla (4%). We report two separate histologic types of Castleman's disease which were rare in the literature, mimicking sigmoid colon tumor and Hodgkin lymphoma. The diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this rare entity is discussed.
