ABSTRACT
Splenic Artery Aneurysm (SAA) is very rare in occurrence and they occur in approximately 1% of the population and are usually an incidental finding, but the necropsy studies have given rates as high as 10%. For its rarity in occurrence here we present a case of splenic artery aneurysm in a 40 year old alcoholic presenting with upper and lower gastrointestinal bleeding. He was diagnosed as splenic artery aneurysm on CT scan and confirmed by laparotomy and pathological examination.
ABSTRACT
Acinic Cell Carcinoma (ACC) was previously called acinic cell tumor and it is a neoplasm demonstrating cytological differentiation towards serous acinar cells. The histological architecture of ACC is diverse and classification consists of various histological subtypes. This is a case of acinic cell carcinoma of parotid gland in a 45 years female patient which showed predominant follicular variant of ACC. It is a least frequent variant of ACC occurring in only 5% and it mimics follicular neoplasm of thyroid.
ABSTRACT
Traditionally Grave's disease was considered as protection against thyroid cancer. The incidence of papillary carcinoma thyroid in grave’s disease is 2.4%. Thyroid cancer occurring in grave’s disease has higher frequency of persisting or relapsing disease than thyroid cancers occurring in matched euthyroid control patients. Here we present a case of papillary carcinoma in a Grave’s disease patient presented with nodular goiter.
