    Kemik sintigrafisi oldukça yaygın kullanılan bir tarama yöntemidir. Brown tümör ilerlemis hiperparatiroidinin oldukça nadir görülen bir bulgusudur. Primer hipertroidi, hiperkalsemi ve hipofosfatemi ile seyreden bir hastalıktır ve sintigrafik görüntülemede metastatik kemik hastalıgını taklit edebilir. Biz bu yazımızda yaygın kemik agrısı yakınması ile basvuran ve çekilen tüm vücut kemik sintigrafisinde kostalarda ve sol femur proksimalinde metastatik olarak degerlendirilen aktivite artısları saptanan 65 yasında bir kadın hastayı sunuyoruz. Ancak, yapılan tetkiklerinde serum kalsiyum ve fosforu normal sınırlardaydı. Paratiroid sintigrafisinde sag alt bölgede paratiroid adenomu ile uyumlu artmıs tutulum saptandı ve paratiroidektomi yapıldı.Bone scintigraphy is a commonly used screening tool in medicine. Brown tumor can be a rare skeletal manifestation of advanced hyperparathyroidism. Primer hyperparathyroidism presents with hypercalcaemia and hypophosphatemia and it can mimic metastatic bone disease. We described a 65-year-old woman who has referred for generalized pain exacerbating on movement and increased uptake in the ribs, proximal of the left femur neck suggestive of metastatic lesions by whole body bone scintigraphy. However, serum calcium and phosphorus levels were normal. Parathyroid scintigraphy revealed extensive uptake in the right lower neck regions consistent with parathyroid adenoma. Parathyroidectomy was performed

    Tanımlanamayan silik göğüs ağrısı yakınmaları olan 32 yaşında bir bayan hastanın akciğer görüntülemelerinde, sağ hemitoraksı dolduran kolon segmentleri saptanmıştır. hastaya 2 yaşında iken, korroziv özofajit nedeni ile özofagusa kolon grefti konulmuş. hastanemizde deforme kolon grefti çıkarılan hastanın görüntü leme bulguları sunulmuştur.Pulmonary x-rays of a 32-year-old female complaint with non-specific chest pain revealed colon segments filling the right thorax. Since she had been experienced corrosive oesophagitis during the second year of her life, her oesophagus had replaced with a colon graft on that time. Patient's deformed colony graft removed at our hospital. The imaging findings of this patient submitted

    The introduction of conjugated pneumococcal vaccines into routine vaccination schedules resulted in a reduction in invasive pneumococcal disease due to vaccine strains. However, invasive pneumococcal diseases caused by non-vaccine strains have increased. Here, we present a fully vaccinated child with 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, who suffered from meningitis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 24A, a non-vaccine and very rare serotype. Longitudinal pneumococcal surveillance is important in monitorization of vaccine coverage and effectiveness and guidance for future vaccination programmes
