B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL) is a neoplasm of precursor cells committed to the B-cell lineage. Extramedullary involvement is frequent, with particular predilection for the central nervous system, lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and testis. We report an unusual case of B-ALL relapsing as an isolated omental mass along with bone marrow involvement.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is an uncommon myofibroblastic neoplasm that was formerly included within the broad category of inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT). IMT is rarely encountered in the liver. Similar to IMT of other organs, the interchangeable use of the terms IMT and IPT in liver has made the analysis of these lesions difficult. In this review, clinical and pathological featur...

Urachal adenocarcinoma is a rare neoplasm of the bladder. Most of these tumors arise from urachal remnants in the dome of the bladder and extend into the umbilicus. These tumors can recur and most commonly metastasize to lymph nodes, retroperitoneum, lungs, liver and bone. Here we report a case of an urachal adenocarcinoma followed for seven years with lung metastasis for three years.

a set of one hundred and twenty nine patients with known primary malignancy and suspected brain metastasis was reviewed in present study. the patients were selected among patients presented to the mri section of imam khomeini hospital or a private mri center in tabriz (iran). primary tumor site, clinical manifestations, number and site of lesions were identified in this patient population. the ...

Certain species of bacteria are known to be associated with colorectal cancer. We report a case of adenocarcinoma of the colon with bacteraemia and liver abscesses due to Streptococcus intermedius. The isolation of this organism should prompt investigation for colorectal neoplasm, which may be present but asymptomatic, without metastases, and therefore at a curative stage.

Angiomyolipoma (AML) of the liver is a very uncommon lipomatous neoplasm, usually asymptomatic and incidentally identified. We describe the imaging findings of a histologically confirmed case using different modalities (US, CT, and MRI). We review and correlate current literature with our imaging and histological findings.

Vitamin B12 is stored in the liver and raised serum levels of the vitamin, as assayed biologically, are present in a variety of liver disorders, particularly those accompanied by acute necrosis of liver cells. Kristensen (1956) suggested the use of serum vitamin B12 level as a liver function test and Rachmilewitz, Stein, Aronovitch, and Grossowicz (1958), finding raised levels in acute and chro...

Adenosquamous carcinoma colon is a rare neoplasm of colon and is said to have an aggressive course and thus poorer prognosis. Here we have described a case of adenosquamous carcinoma colon in an elderly female patient, presenting with typical features of a colonic malignancy, but with a rapidly deteriorating clinical course and liver metastasis.

Solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT), also known as Frantz tumor is an unusual form of pancreatic neoplasm. Its natural history differs from the more common pancreatic adenocarcinoma in that it has a female predilection, is more indolent, and carries a better prognosis. Metastatic disease can occur, usually involving the liver, and its management is not well defined.

We present a case of systemic sarcoidosis involving the liver, pancreas, lungs, mediastinal and intraabdominal lymph nodes and bones. Multiple organ system manifestations mimicked malignant metastatic disease. The diagnosis was established with clinical, radiological, and pathological findings after neoplasm was ruled out by pathological tests. The patient showed rapid symptom remission with sy...
