Imaging and Histopathology Correlation of Solid Papillary Carcinoma of the Breast : A Review of Four Cases

Solid papillary breast carcinoma is a rare type of breast carcinoma. We present four cases which highlight the radiological and histological findings of solid papillary carcinoma. Mammogram supplemented with ultrasound played an important role in detecting solid papillary carcinomas which usually presents as intraductal lesions or intracystic mass with Doppler signal. Excision biopsy is a better option than core biopsy as the latter modality may not be representative and the diagnosis of solid papillary breast carcinoma may be missed.

Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome: A Rare Cause of Claudication in a Young Athlete

Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome is an important infrequent cause of serious disability among young adults and athletes. We hereby describe a case of popliteal artery syndrome and its clinical implications. Physicians should be aware of the possibility of popliteal artery entrapment in young patients presenting with progressive arterial insufficiency.

Pelvic aneurysmal bone cyst

This paper describes an extremely rare case of a huge aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) in the pelvis, occurring in the patient’s 5th decade of life. The patient presented with a history of painless huge pelvic mass for 10 years. Plain radiograph and computed tomography showed huge expansile lytic lesion arising from the right iliac bone. A biopsy was performed and histology confirmed diagnosis of aneurysmal bone cyst. Unfortunately, the patient succumbed to profuse bleeding from the tumour.
