ABSTRACT

In this case, we describe the wide magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) spectrum in a single patient who had multi organ involvement. Von Hippel Lindau Disease is a rare inherited autosomal dominant disorder characterized by development of benign and malignant lesions involving multiple organs. Imaging plays a vital role in the diagnosis and surveillance of VHL as it can differentiate benign from malignant lesions. The median life expectancy of VHL is 49 years and the commonest cause of death in patients with VHL is renal cell carcinoma and neurologic complication from cerebellar hemangioblastomas.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we present a case of disseminated cysticercosis involving the brain, orbit, myocardium, muscle, subcutaneous tissues, pancreas, and spleen. Imaging studies are described with emphasis on pancreatic and splenic involvement which is a rare manifestation of a rather common disease and has been radiologically demonstrated only once previously. Although the involvement of the pancreas by parasites leading to pancreatitis has been described previously, in our case there was no clinical or biochemical evidence of pancreatitis due to infection by cysticerci.
