[Multiple duodenal lipomas. A x-ray computed tomographic diagnosis].

In a 65-year-old man, upper endoscopy revealed several polypoid lesions into the duodenum, for which histologic examination of the biopsy specimens showed normal mucosa. CT studies demonstrated homogeneous fat density of these nodules, and thus were diagnostic of duodenal lipomas. The diagnosis was ultimately histologically confirmed by deeper peri-endoscopic biopsies. About this case and the some previously reported ones, the authors emphasize the interest of CT examination in this small bowel tumor.

[Morphology and diagnosis of acquired bladder deformities].

Acquired displacements of the urinary bladder refer to intrapelvic pathological anatomy. These alterations of the bladder are predominantly detected via an initial radiologic study with intravenous urography or suprapubic pelvic ultrasonography. According to their clinical incidence displacements of the bladder can occur in: pelvic space-occupying lesions; displacements in musculo-fascial defects of supporting structures as well as in extirpation cavities of the small pelvis; extrapelvic space-occupying lesions. Herniation, prolapse and descensus of the bladder can be accurately diagnosed by correct examination via intravenous urography. The diagnostics of pelvic and extrapelvic pathogenetic causes require the complex application of all methods of diagnostic imaging, the value of which is determined by clinical diagnosis and by the choice of an appropriate therapy.

Bilateral adrenal myelolipomas with Cushing's syndrome.

A 24-year-old woman with non-pituitary dependent Cushing's syndrome was found to have bilateral adrenal myelolipomas at surgery. These benign tumors consist of bone marrow and fat and are uncommon incidental findings that are discovered by computed tomography. Myelolipomas have rarely been associated with Cushing's syndrome, but the cause of the syndrome has not always been defined, because the reports preceded modern diagnostic methods. Careful examination of the adrenal glands from our patient showed a fusion of myelolipoma elements and adrenal cells without distinct adenomas or the typical nodular pattern of adrenal hyperplasia. This report suggests that adrenal myelolipomas and atypical hyperplasia of the zona fasciculata may be anatomically and functionally related.

Hibernoma: a patient examined by CT.

We describe the computed tomographic (CT) findings in a patient with a hibernoma of the thigh, a rare tumor of brown fat. There are no specific features to allow differentiation from the more common low grade liposarcoma. This is in agreement with the only other published report of the CT features of hibernoma. Although preoperative diagnosis requires biopsy, CT is of value in detecting fatty tumors and in preoperative planning.

[Bannayan syndrome with intracranial arteriovenous malformations].

Bannayan syndrome is a inheritable autosomal dominant association of hamartoma (usually hemangioma and lipoma) and macrocephaly with other inconstant features. Authors report a new family joining known criteria, with a complex intracranial arteriovenous malformation, previously not reported in the literature, conditioning outlook and treatment.

[Multiple lipomas of the colon. Case report with clinical, roentgenologic, angiographic and histologic findings].

Case report on a 26 year old woman with multiple lipomas of the colon and rectum and a neurofibromatosis simultaneously. Description and discussion of clinical data and differential diagnosis. The vascularisation of the lipomas and of the overlying mucosa was proved to be good angiographically. This is the reason for the frequent bleeding of the lipomas of the colon. The coincidence of multiple lipomas and neurofibromatosis is rare. Therefore conclusions for a possible common etiology of the two diseases should be drawn only after further reports.

Adult↗

[Apropos of 72 gynecomastia].

Sixty-nine cases of true gynecomastia are reported and etiological, clinical and surgical problems encountered in male senologic practice discussed. Endocrine and drug factors are well established, but half of the cases are idiopathic. Diagnosis is based on specific clinical, mammographic and histologic findings, treatment being surgical with or without fat aspiration or skin reduction.
