Résumé
The incidence of middle cerebral artery aneurysm rupture in pregnancy is rare. Rupture of an intracranial aneurysm is the most common cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage in pregnancy and during puerperium. Intracranial aneurysm rupture during pregnancy is disastrous for the mother as well as the fetus. We report a case of a dissecting left middle cerebral artery aneurysm in a 25-year-old woman, G2P1L1, at 18 weeks of gestation, who presented with a 1-day history of giddiness, slurring of speech, and facial deviation to the left.
Résumé
Retroperitoneal lymphangiectasia is a very rare lymphatic disorder characterized by abnormal proliferation of lymphatics. We present series of 3 cases of retroperitoneal lymphangiectasia which are diagnosed in our institute with the help of Ultrasonography (USG), Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of abdomen and pelvis with unusual clinical presentation. We include clinical features and imaging findings of this disorder with its pathogenesis and diagnosis. Two of the cases were clinically masquerading as hernia and one case was mimicking varicocele. Thorough clinical examination and USG, colour Doppler, CT and MRI are extremely helpful imaging investigation that aid in differentiating these lesions from hernia/ varicocele and the cross sectional imaging like CT and MRI can depict the anatomical extent of the disease.
