Diabetic muscle infarction: atypical MR appearance.

We describe a case of diabetic muscle infarction which had atypical features of hyperintensity of the affected muscle on T1-weighted images. Biopsy was performed which revealed diffuse extensive hemorrhage within the infarcted muscle. We believe increased signal intensity on T1-weighted images should suggest hemorrhage within the infarcted muscle.

Haemangiopericytoma of nose and paranasal sinuses is relatively uncommon tumour. It occurs in adults in sixth and seventh decades of life. In view of paucity of intranasal haemangiopericytoma old in Indian literature and young age of patient, we are reporting one case in 28-year-old female who presented with recurrent, profuse epistaxis.

Primary diagnosis of soft tissue echinococcosis by aspiration cytology.

A case of hydatid cyst of soft tissue diagnosed by Fine needle aspiration of a cyst is reported. The patient presented with gradually increasing swelling in the anterior-inferior aspect of shoulder. The provisional clinical diagnosis of cold-abscess shoulder was made, patient was referred for Fine needle aspiration cytology (F.N.A.C.). Swelling was aspirated by 23-gauge needle obtaining 1.5 ml of blood-mixed fluid. Smears of fluid showed protoscolices, fully developed scolices with rostellum and scattered hooklets, pathognomonic of Echinococcosis. Histopathologic examination of surgically removed cyst showed chronically inflamed echinococcal cyst. No complication was observed.
