Varix of the inferior pulmonary vein: computed tomography and magnetic resonance angiography findings.

A 37-yr-old male presented with a 2-week history of intermittent episodes of mild haemoptysis. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a varix of the inferior pulmonary vein. The diagnosis was confirmed using magnetic resonance angiography and conventional angiography. This condition is relatively rare, and few cases have previously been demonstrated by means of magnetic resonance imaging and angiography.

Spinal cord compression due to costal Echinococcus multilocularis.

We present computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of a costal hydatid cyst (Echinococcus multilocularis) causing spinal cord compression. The hydatid disease was proved histologically. MRI was not only very useful for determining the spinal extension of the disease by its multiplanar imaging capability, but also gave important information about the texture of the cyst, thus aiding the preoperative diagnosis.
