Kimura’s disease: a diagnostic and therapeutic enigma

Palatal Swelling: A Diagnostic Enigma

Giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone is a giant-cell-rich bony lesion associated with abundant multinucleated osteoclast-type giant cells. It is a primary neoplasm of bone with characteristic clinical, radiological, and pathological features. It is an expansive and lytic lesion without periosteal reaction and prominent peripheral sclerosis. Giant cells are also seen in other diseases like giant cell ...

Multiple Large Tumefactive MS Plaques in a Young Man: A Diagnostic Enigma and Therapeutic Challenge

Tumefactive demyelinating lesion is defined as large solitary demyelinating lesion with imaging characteristics mimicking neoplasm. These atypical features include size more than 2 cm, mass effect, edema, and/or ring enhancement. Distinguishing tumefactive lesions from other etiologies of intracranial space occupying lesions is essential to avoid inadvertent surgical or toxic chemotherapeutic i...

The hypereosinophilic syndrome--a diagnostic enigma.

The hypereosinophilic syndrome groups together a number of conditions in which eosinophilia occurs for no apparently identifiable cause. Initial reports indicated a uniformly grave prognosis but recent observations suggest a more favourable outcome in certain cases. Two patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome are described whose course of disease and outcome have been completely different.

Ocular Lymphoma: Clinical, Diagnostic, and Therapeutic Aspects

Ocular involvement in lymphoma is a relatively rare condition that can result from a primary intraocular lymphoma or an intraocular manifestation of systemic lymphoma. Lymphoma manifestations frequently masquerade as other more benign intraocular conditions including allergic or infectious conjunctivitis, uveitis, multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, acute retinal necrosis, or herpetic retin...
