Frontal sinus osteoma with pneumocephalus: A rare cause of progressive hemiparesis.

Osteomas of paranasal sinuses are common benign tumors and are diagnosed incidentally. However, osteomas complicated by pneumocephalus with air fluid level presenting with progressive hemiparesis is rare. Here, we present a case report of a 22-year-old male who presented with left-sided progressive hemiparesis with history of generalized headache since 2 years.

Angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme with soft tissue hypertrophy and deep venous malformation: A variant of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome?

Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a cutaneous capillary malformation on a limb in association with soft tissue swelling with or without bony hypertrophy and atypical varicosity. The capillary malformation associated with KTS is port wine stain. Angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme (ACN) is a congenital variant of angiokeratoma commonly present on the lower limb as a hyperkeratotic plaque. ACN is rarely associated with KTS. We report a case of ACN with soft tissue hypertrophy and deep venous malformation (possibly a variant of Klippel-Trenaunay) in a 4-year-old male child.

Fibrochondrogenesis, an antenatal and postnatal correlation.

Fibrochondrogenesis is a rare, neonatally lethal osteochondrodysplasia, with autosomal recessive inheritance. It differs from other lethal dwarfisms in that it leads to broad, long-bone metaphyses (dumb-bell shaped) and pear-shaped vertebral bodies. We report a case of fibrochondrogenesis with severe pear-shaped platyspondyly, suspected antenatally, and give a comprehensive pictorial review of the antenatal ultrasound and postnatal radiographic findings. Only few cases of fibrochondrogenesis are diagnosed before the termination of pregnancy.

Communicating tubular duplication of upper esophagus-a rare occurrence.

Duplications of esophagus are commonly classified into two types, tubular and cystic. Tubular duplication of esophagus is a rare occurrence and is much less common than cystic duplication of foregut. Most esophageal duplications are located in the lower third of the esophagus. A cervical esophageal duplication is extremely rare. Esophageal duplications have been reported twice as commonly on the right as on the left. We report a case of incidental finding identified on computed tomography of communicating tubular esophageal duplication involving the left side of the upper esophagus in a tuberculosis patient that was subsequently confirmed on barium swallow test.

Prolapsed simple ureterocele: evaluation by transvaginal voiding sono-urethrography.

Prolapsed ureterocele is a rare complication that may present with acute bladder outlet obstruction, generally in female infants. We present a case of prolapsed simple ureterocele in an adult woman, evaluated by transvaginal micturating sono-urethrography. High-frequency transvaginal sonography of the urethra performed during micturation revealed the relationship of the ureterocele with the urethral wall.

Hydranencephaly associated with cerebellar involvement and bilateral microphthalmia and colobomas.

Hydranencephaly is an encephaloclastic central nervous system disorder characterised by severe destruction of the cerebral hemispheres with preservation of posterior fossa structures. We present MRI and neurosonography features of a unique case of hydranencephaly involving cerebellum (in the form of complete liquefaction of cerebellar hemispheres) and cerebral hemispheres with associated bilateral microphthalmia and ocular colobomas. This is an exceptional case as to the best to our knowledge. In humans, such a severe involvement of cerebellum has not been reported in cases of hydranencephaly. It is essential to distinguish hydranencephaly from gross hydrocephalus, as treatment and prognosis of the two are totally different. During differentiation, it is important to remember that severe cerebellar involvement can be seen in hydranencephaly.

Imaging features of extra cranial parapharyngeal space meningioma: case report.

Parapharyngeal tumors are less common in clinical practice and are often difficult to diagnose upon clinical examination due to the anatomic complexity of the region. We report a rare case of extracranial parapharyngeal space meningioma presenting as a cervical mass with encasement of cranial nerves giving tram track appearance and features on various imaging modalities [Radiographs, Ultrasound, Computed tomography (CT) scan and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)].

A rare case of male primary breast lymphoma.

Primary lymphoma of the breast is a rare occurrence because of the paucity of lymphoid tissue in the breast and is an even rarer entity in the male breast. Imaging, along with tissue diagnosis goes a long way in diagnosing breast lymphoma which has a significantly different management scheme than other breast neoplasms with respect to radio-chemotherapy rather than surgical resection. We present a case of primary male breast lymphoma which was evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging as well as other conventional imaging modalities and was treated by chemotherapy with a 7-month follow-up.

Partial hydatidiform mole in septate uterus.

Partial mole is a form of gestational trophoblastic disease that may be associated with serious medical complications and occasionally progresses to the second trimester of pregnancy. We present a case report of a partial mole diagnosed at 18 weeks of gestation in a septate uterus with molar placenta in one horn and a dead fetus in the other.
