Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia is a rare, benign, breast disease characterized by dense, collagenous proliferation of mammary stroma, forming interanastomosing capillary-like spaces. Previously reported cases presented with a palpable breast mass or continuous breast enlargement, or were unexpectedly detected on mammography or ultrasonography. However, cases presenting only with pain as ...

Hysteroscopy and uterine curettage are required in cases of atypical hyperplasia in premenopause and in all cases of hyperplasia with/without atypia in postmenopausal women. Biopsic curettage is the method of choice in the diagnosis of endometrial pathology. Transvaginal ultrasound and Doppler examination are useful in assessing the risk of endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial cancer in postm...

AIMS Histological restenosis models in animals have indicated that stent design has a significant impact on vessel trauma during stent implantation and on the amount of subsequent neointimal tissue proliferation. The impact of different stent designs on intimal hyperplasia in human atherosclerotic coronary arteries has not been determined. METHODS AND RESULTS Angiographic and intravascular ul...

Five inbred strains of mice differing in susceptibility to diet-induced atherosclerosis were compared for neointimal hyperplasia after endothelial denudation with an epoxy resin-modified catheter probe. Results showed that all animals responded similarly to the arterial injury, with increased medial area and thickness after 14 days. In contrast, a significant strain-specific difference in neoin...

Sebaceous hyperplasia, a benign proliferation ofsebaceous glands, has been well documented in organ transplant recipients treated with cyclosporine. Sebaceous hyperplasia has not been strongly associated with any other immunosuppressive medications. We report a case of eruptive sebaceous hyperplasia in a renal transplant recipient with no previous exposure to cyclosporine that was recently star...

Hemodialysis access stenosis is a pervasive problem that occurs due to the physiology of high-flow circuit. Stenosis endothelial and smooth muscle injuries result in neointimal hyperplasia. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty standard treatment for dialysis access-induced stenosis. Unfortunately, it also associated with vessel wall trauma, which causes further intimal hyperplasia restenosis. ...

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a histological diagnosis and the most frequent benign tumor in older men, its incidence strongly correlates with advanced age. Giant prostate enlargement (GPE), also known as giant hyperplasia, term given for severely enlarged prostates that weigh more than 500g. GPE cases reported literature less 30. We describe our experience of removing previously asymptomatic...

Thymic hyperplasia is frequently observed in Graves' disease. However, detectable massive enlargement of the thymus is rare, and the mechanism of its formation has remained elusive. This case showed dynamic changes in thymic hyperplasia on serial computed tomography images consistent with changes in serum thyrotropin receptor (TSH-R) antibodies and thyroid hormone levels. Furthermore, the patie...

Focal nodular hyperplasia and nodular regenerative hyperplasia are occasionally seen in patients with hepatic venous outflow obstruction as a consequence of circulatory stress in the liver. In addition, neoplastic processes such as hepatic adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metastatic disease may arise in these patients. Histologic evaluation is necessary when imaging modalities are unable ...
