Systemic amyloidosis is normally detected on histology by deposition of amyloid into soft tissue organs. Omental and peritoneal involvement are rare manifestations of the disease. The differential diagnosis for omental and peritoneal disease does not, therefore, normally include amyloid.
ABSTRACT
We describe a 13-month-old female who presented with vaginal bleeding, breast and pubic hair development and an abdominal mass. She underwent emergency laparotomy and left-sided salpingoophorectomy. Histological examination of the resected ovary revealed massive ovarian oedema, a rare non-neoplastic enlargement of the ovary. Consideration of this diagnosis in patients with an abdominal mass and endocrine disturbance may allow conservative surgery and preservation of fertility.

An Internet-based method is described for submission of video clips to a website editor to be reviewed, edited, and then uploaded onto a video server, with a hypertext link to a website. The information on the webpages is searchable via the website sitemap on Internet search engines. A survey of video users who accessed a single 59-minute FNA cytology training cytology video via the website showed a mean score for usefulness for specialists/consultants of 3.75, range 1-5, n = 16, usefulness for trainees mean score was 4.4, range 3-5, n = 12, with a mean score for visual and sound quality of 3.9, range 2-5, n = 16. Fifteen out of 17 respondents thought that posting video training material on the Internet was a good idea, and 9 of 17 respondents would also consider submitting training videos to a similar website. This brief exercise has shown that there is value in posting educational or training video content on the Internet and that the use of streamed video accessed via the Internet will be of increasing importance.
