: Hydatid cyst is one of the predominantly cystic liver lesions and also a zoonotic disease that highly endemic in Mediterranean region. This condition has extensive differential diagnoses, such as hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma, rare benign tumor, which commonly occurs infants children, extremely adults. Its imaging findings vary from tumor to solid mass occupying or both lobes liver. We report...

OBJECTIVE A hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma is an uncommon benign tumor in children and little is known about the spectrum of its radiological features. The purpose of this study is to describe the spectrum of radiological features of a hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirteen children with a pathologically confirmed hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma (M:F = 7:6; mea...

etrorectal cystic hamartoma are rare tumors of developmental origin usually diagnosed as an incidental finding in adult patients. We present such a case in a 33-year-old lady who presented with acute retention of urine. Ultrasound abdomen showed a retrorectal cystic mass (15 x 10 cm), which, was confirmed on computerized tomography (CT) scan. Exploratory laparotomy via a lower midline incision ...

A 16-year-old girl was transferred to the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery because of a spontaneous pneumothorax with prolonged air leakage. Chest computed tomography demonstrated a cystic lesion measuring 2×3 cm and involving the left upper lobe. Left upper lobectomy was performed via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. A pathologic examination of the specimen revealed a mes...

Background: Neurofollicular hamartoma (NFH) is characterized histopathologically by fascicles of spindle cells that laterally delimited by hyperplastic folliculosebaceous units. It usually appears on face, near the nose or nasolabial fold. It does not manifest true neural differentiation and recently the term spindle cell predominant trichodiscoma (SCPT) has been used instead. Case Presentatio...

tailgut cyst is a very rare lesion of the retrorectal space seemingly derived from embryonic remnants of the tail gut which often causes rectal signs and symptoms. a unique case of this lesion presenting as a subcutaneous mass lateral to the coccyx is hereby described

A 23-year-old man with a history of tuberous sclerosis presented multiple white globular elevated lesions bilaterally (Fig A). The most prominent these astrocytic hamartomas in his left eye was raised, cystic, and calcific A, line). En face OCT infrared scan B) highlights the clear cystic spaces. Angiographic flow C) en angiography D) demonstrates plexus capillary vessels apex hamartoma. (Magni...

A pancreatic hamartoma is a rare benign lesion that may be mistaken for malignancy. A pancreatic hamartoma can present with vague, non-specific symptoms, which can be difficult to diagnose despite modern diagnostic tools. We report here a pancreatic hamartoma diagnosed after surgical resection. A 52-year-old female presented with postprandial abdominal discomfort. Abdominal computed tomography ...
