Cecal Giant Lipoma Mimicking Malignancy

Giant solitary gastric Peutz-Jeghers polyp mimicking a malignant gastric tumor: the largest described in literature.

A solitary Peutz-Jeghers polyp is defined as a unique polyp occurring without associated mucocutaneous pigmentation or a family history of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Gastric solitary localization is a rare event, with only eight reported cases to date. We report herein the case of a 43-year old woman who presented with upper gastrointestinal bleeding, severe anemia, weight loss and asthenia. Endos...

GIANT HAMARTOMA OF THE BREAST: REPORT OF A CASE AND REVIEW OF THE CURRENT LITERATURE

Hamartoma of the breast is a rare benign breast lesion which is unfamiliar to most clinicians, although the mammographic features are usually characteristic. Hamartomas are composed of ducts, lobules, fat and fibrous tissue. These benign lesions are likely to be increasingly diagnosed because of routine screening and hence clinical awareness is paramount to prevent these lesions from being ...

A Rare Case of Recurrent Myoid Hamartoma Mimicking Malignancy: Imaging Appearances

Myoid hamartoma is an uncommon type of breast hamartoma and its recurrence is very rare. We report the imaging appearance of an unusual case of recurrent myoid hamartoma of the breast mimicking malignancy in a 43-year-old woman. Although the mammographic and ultrasonographic findings have long been described in the literature, MR finding with a dynamic study has not, to the best of our knowledg...

Hepatoblastoma with solid and multicystic aspect mimicking a mesenchymal hamartoma: imaging and anatomopathologic findings

A 29-day-old infant was evaluated at our center for a hepatic mass found during gestation. Ultrasound revealed a heterogeneous lesion which comprised three anechoic areas with hypoechoic debris and a predominantly hyperechoic central region with signs of vascularization on Doppler imaging (Figure 1A). Computed tomography showed a large bulging mass with three clearly defined cystic components w...
