Tętniak tętnicy płucnej imitujący rozwarstwienie tętnicy płucnej wykryty za pomocą obrazowania multimodalnego

An idiopathic pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) is an uncommon lesion, and is defined when the diameter of the pulmonary trunk is greater than 30 mm in the absence of cardiac or pulmonary etiologies. Idiopathic PAA is generally asymptomatic and has an increased risk for dissection or rupture of the aneurysm. We herein demonstrate two- and three-dimensional echocardiographic and computerised tomographic angiography features of an idiopathic pulmonary aneurysm mimicking a pulmonary artery dissection

CT Angiographic Demonstration of a Mesenteric Vessel "Whirlpool" in Intestinal Malrotation and Midgut Volvulus: a Case Report

Although the color Doppler ultrasonography diagnosis of intestinal malrotation with midgut volvulus, based on the typical "whirlpool" appearance of the mesenteric vascular structures is well-defined in the peer-reviewed literature, the combination of both the angiographic illustration of these findings and the contemporary state-of-the-art imaging techniques is lacking. We report the digital subtraction angiography and multidetector computed tomography angiography findings of a 37-year-old male with intestinal malrotation

Late embolization of the atrial septal occluder device into the abdominal aorta

Although early device embolization is a well-known complication of percutaneous atrial septal defect (ASD) closure, late device embolization is rarely encountered and information about management of it are very limited. Herein, we reported a case of late ASD device embolization into the abdominal aorta at the level of the superior mesenteric artery, 8 months after percutaneous closure

Imaging Findings of Jugular Foramen Meningocele in a Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Patient

Neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) is a neurocutaneous disorder that involves autosomal dominant transmission. Skull defects, including sphenoid dysplasia and calvarial defects, are a rare finding in patients with NF1. Spinal meningocele and sphenoid wing dysplasia have been identified in NF1 but the occurrence of meningoceles at the skull base is extremely rare. A rare instance of jugular foramen meningocele being identified in an NF1 patient on imaging is described in this paper. To the best of our knowledge, only two such cases have been reported in the English literature
