RESUMO
While investigating a chest opacity in Behcet's disease possibility of pulmonary aneurysm should be considered. Contrast enhanced CT is a safe diagnostic method which is useful in confirming or excluding the presence of an aneurysm in such cases. We report here the first case of bilateral pulmonary aneurysms in Behcet's disease.

Benign tumours of the oesophagus are rare, representing less than 1% of all oesophageal neoplasms. Most of them are intramural leiomyomas while the other benign tumours are encountered only infrequently; among these pedunculated intraluminal hamartomas form a particularly rare group. We present here one such case.

It is now widely accepted that germinal cell tumors can arise primarily in the mediastinum. Primary extragenital seminoma has been documented arising in the mediastinum but very few reports are available about primary mediastinal embryonal cell carcinoma. We report a case of this rare condition with radiological and CT features.
