Primary pulmonary solitary fibrous tumour with brain metastases.
Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) is a mesenchymal neoplasm of subendothelial origin that can be found in all anatomical locations, but rarely in the lungs. A 71-year old female was referred to our hospital because of the increase in size of a solitary pulmonary mass. Chest contrast-enhanced dynamic computed tomography showed a well-circumscribed lobulated mass measuring 3.1×1.6 cm in the posterior...
متن کامل[Giant cell tumour of distal femur with pulmonary metastases].
Gian cell is normally a benign primary skeletal lesion located in the epiphysis of the long bones. It is more frequente in the third and fourth decades of life but can exhibit the behaviour of a malignant tumour with distal metatasis. Up to 10% of patients present distal metatasis, usually in the lung, and it is concomitant to recurrence in the primary site. The treatment of primary tumour is e...
متن کاملMultiple tumour emboli simulating a massive pulmonary embolus.
Pulmonary hypertension in association with carcinomatosis was first described over 100 years ago (Bristow, 1868). Kane et al. (1975), however, found only 23 reported cases of multiple tumour emboli causing dyspnoea, adding 16 of their own. Only four of these cases were reported from the British Isles. Sarcomas, although commonly metastasising to the lungs have not previously been reported as gi...

متن کاملA case of cardiac hydatidosis.
We present the case of a female patient with a diagnosis of hydatidosis located in the heart. Although echinococcosis is endemic to our country, very few cases of cardiac hydatidosis are normally reported. In our patient, the hydatid cyst was located in the septum and in the right ventricular cavity; it presented other unusual features, such as the fact that it was located exclusively in the he...
