[Abdominal tuberculosis].

Abstract

We report six cases of abdominal tuberculosis, calling attention to the new increase in this illness and the difficulty of diagnosis because of the nonspecificity of the symptoms, which were mainly abdominal pain and abdominal calcifications.

Primary calcification in post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder involving the hepatic graft: an exceptional finding.

Calcification within active post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorders has, to our knowledge, never been described. We report the case of a 14-month-old boy who presented 4 months after orthotopic liver transplantation with a primary calcification in a lymphoproliferative nodule involving the hepatic graft. This calcification was detected by routine ultrasonography, visible on plain radiographs, and the post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder was histologically proved.

Calcinosis

Idiopathic tumoral calcinosis involving the cervical spine.

We report a case of a 12-year-old girl with idiopathic tumoral calcinosis of the neck. There are calcium deposits in the paraspinal soft tissue with bony involvement in the cervical spine. CT and MR images are presented along with clinical and pathological features. Bony involvement in this disease has not been recognized before.
