Crohn’s Disease with the Suspicion of Colon Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: Crohn’s Disease (CD) and colon cancer have many similarities in imaging. However, treatments for the two entities are vastly different, making proper diagnosis critical in the clinic. This case is an atypical Crohn’s disease, which was misdiagnosed as colon cancer. We reviewed a lot of related literature and found almost no […]

Diffuse Bone Marrow Involvement of Gastric Cancer Diagnosed by Positron Emission Tomography Computed Tomography

1. Abstract Bone metastases from gastric adenocarcinoma are rare, accounting for less than 2% of cases. Bone marrow (BM) metastases are even less frequent. For those patients suspected for bone and bone marrow metastases, a biopsy is normally the method of choice for diagnosis. In our case, bone and BM metastases were diagnosed using PET-CT,

Rare Case of Buerger’s Disease with Acute Fulminant Progression to Digital Ischaemia Despite Aggressive Medical Treatment

1. Abstract Buerger’s disease, also known as thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO), is a non-atherosclerotic, segmental inflammatory disease affecting small to medium-sized arteries and veins in the limbs. It is a rare disease seen mostly in young male smokers below 45 years of age. Disease course is typically gradual, progressing from claudication symptoms to rest pain eventually

Inter Aortic-Caval Paraganglioma Simulating a Pancreatic Mass

1. Summary Paraganglioma is a tumor that develops from clusters of neuroendocrine cells located along the vascular and nervous axes called paraganglia. They are present in different locations: the thorax (posterior mediastinum), the abdomen (in the vicinity of the large blood vessels; aorta and vena cava) [1]. Some paragangliomas are secreting, most often catecholamines. They

Lymphoepithelial Cyst Mimicking Malignant Pancreatic Signs

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: A lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas is a rare benign lesion that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively and challenging in distinguishing from potentially malignant cystic pancreatic neoplasms. A diagnostic step-up approach is recommended to clarify the lesion’s dignity and specify a treatment plan.

Solid Pseudopapillary Tumour of the Pancreas, a Chameleon-like Tumour? High CD138 Expression by a Pseudopapillary and Solid Tumour of the Pancreas Simulating a Plasmacytoma

1. Abstract Solid Pseudopapillary Tumour of the Pancreas (SPTP) is an uncommon tumour that occurs mainly in young women. Its aetiology is unknown with a low potential for malignancy. Its diagnosis is most often difficult by biopsy. Imaging data associated with epidemiological data should be sufficient to conjure up its diagnosis. We report the case

A Rare Case of Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) after Plasmodium Falciparum Infection

1. Abstract Malaria infections have a wide array of both acute and chronic neu- rologic presentations that can create unclear clinical pictures, espe- cially when presenting in a region with low malaria prevalence.1 Neurological complications for the pediatric population can be devastating if not correctly identified and promptly treated.

Gastroparesis Following Pulmonary Vein Isolation: A Case Report

1. Abstract Gastroparesis is a chronic disorder characterized by delayed gastric emptying after meals in the absence of any mechanical obstructions, especially pyloric stenosis [4]. The main symptoms include early satiety and fullness after a meal, nausea, vomiting, belching and bloating [5]. Gastroparesis is a complication of AF ablation which arises due to iatrogenic damage

Inflammatory Breast Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review

1. Abstract A 52-year-old female was admitted to our hospital due to the redness and swelling of the left breast continuing for 1 month. Specialist examination found that the left breast is larger than the right side and the left breast quadrant showed skin redness and orange peel on about 1/3 of the breast. This
