متن کاملFocal orbital amyloidosis presenting as rectus muscle enlargement: CT and MR findings.
We report a case of focal orbital amyloidosis involving rectus muscles, which is an extremely rare clinical condition. CT scans showed rectus muscle enlargement with punctate calcifications. Heterogeneous hypointensity was present on T2-weighted MR images, and homogeneous enhancement was seen on fat-saturated contrast-enhanced images of the muscles. These imaging findings seem to be suggestive ...
متن کاملPrimary Localized Vesical Amyloidosis Mimicking Bladder Carcinoma: A Case Report
Amyloidosis of urinary bladder is a rare condition and may be primary or secondary in nature. A case of primary localized vesical amyloidosis (VA) in a 40-yr-old man is described confused with neoplasm by cystoscopic, urographic. Surgical specimens obtained by transurethral resection (TUR) were diagnostic and histologically revealed amyloid deposits in sub-epithelial stroma with chronic inflamm...
متن کاملExtraocular Muscle Fixation to the Orbital Wall
The surgical results of severe or complex deviations such as those due to complete third nerve palsy, aberrant innervation of extraocular muscles (EOMs) and Duane syndrome are usually not completely successful. Herein, we describe the surgical technique of EOM fixation to the orbital wall. After a limbal or fornix based conjunctival incision, the related EOM is identified and dissected; the mus...
متن کاملRhombencephalosynapsis: CT and MRI findings.
