background: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) is becoming a significant problem especially through substantial increase in the incidence of obesity worldwide. currently it is the most common cause of abnormal serum aminotransferase levels both in low- and middle-income countries and in high-income countries and despite its high prevalence, well-defined screening recommendations are curre...

Angioma serpiginosum is an uncommon, acquired vascular nevoid disorder with capillary dilation and proliferation in the papillary dermis. The eruptions are asymptomatic and characterized by grouped, erythematous to violaceous, serpiginous and punctate macules. The condition usually appears in females during adolescence on unilateral lower extremities and the buttocks. We report a rare case with...

Third ventricular cavernous angiomas are rare vascular malformations of the brain. We report an eight-year old boy with a rare third ventricular cavernous angioma that hemorrhaged presenting with symptoms of acute hydrocephalus. Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed a heterogenous ill-defined, solid and cystic intraventricular mass in the third ventricle which was...

the period of observation. Separate cases were observed seven years after the operation. The operation consists of five steps described in the text and drawn in the attached Table. The steadiness of the therapeutic results obtained, ease of the performance of the operation, the short duration of the postoperative treatment (5-6 days), all these data are, in the author's opinion, sufficient to r...

BACKGROUND Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is characterized by distinctive vascular malformations of skin and the gastrointestinal tract, often leading to chronic anemia and intestinal bleeding. It usually presents right after birth or during early infancy. Though the disease is inherent, its occurrence is sporadic. Thus it is usually not timely diagnosed. We analyzed the clinical chara...

We report an unusual case of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) with angioma-like vascularity in the central scar illustrated on MRI and proven by histopathology. The vascular theory of common causative factors in FNH and haemangioma is discussed.
