lipoma/edema

This report describes a rare case of a patient with lipoma presenting with epileptic seizures associated with expanding perifocal edema. The patient was a 48-year-old man who presented with loss of consciousness and convulsions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a calcified mass in the

OBJECTIVE Median nerve neuropathy can be clinically devastating to a patient. It can be caused by compression of the median nerve anywhere along its course. We present the case of delayed median nerve neuropathy after the placement of a vascular graft in the arm. METHODS An arm shunt was placed in

A one-day-old male Holstein calf was presented with a palpable subcutaneous mass, extending from the parotid to the orbital region, involving the entire right side of the face and a large flabby mass without any evidence of inflammation or edema on the tongue. Macroscopically, the cut surface of the

Calcifying pseudoneoplasm of the neuraxis (CAPNON) is a rare clinical entity. We report an unusual case of intraparenchymal bifrontal CAPNON coexisting with interhemispheric lipoma and agenesis of the corpus callosum.

A 64-year-old

A 65-year-old man developed a progressively enlarging abdominal mass that ultimately resulted in a weight gain of 25 kg., leg edema and an inability to walk. His condition was initially considered to be inoperable but exploration resulted in the removal of a 19.5 kg., 50 cm. intraabdominal

We report a case of lipoma arborescens of both knee joints. In the face of chronic joint hydrops, it is important to consider lipoma arborescens in the differential diagnosis and to try to make early diagnosis, using magnetic resonance imaging or another means of examination.

An intravestibular lipoma was discovered during destructive surgery for disabling vertigo in a case diagnosed as delayed endolymphatic hydrops. The author recommends that in cases that resemble Meniere's disease but have unusual symptoms, the existence of other lesions within the inner ear should be

A 55-year-old obese man (body mass index, 31.6 kg/m(2)) presented radiating pain and motor weakness in the left leg. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an epidural mass posterior to the L5 vertebral body, which was isosignal to subcutaneous fat and it asymmetrically compressed the left side of the

BACKGROUND Hibernoma is a very rare benign tumor that arises from vestigial remnants of fetal brown adipose cells and usually manifests as a slowly growing, painless soft-tissue mass. It mainly occurs in adults, in the third and fourth decade of life, slightly more in women and is commonly seen in

Lipomas are common benign mesenchymal tumors that originate from mature adipocytes throughout the body, with 13-20% occurring in the head and neck region, however only 1-4.4% affect the oral cavity, where they are found predominately in the cheek, followed by the tongue, lips, palatal mucosa,

Cardiac lipomas are extremely rare benign neoplasms of the heart. We report the case of a 64-year-old female complaining of rapidly worsening dyspnea and lower limb edema. Echocardiograms showed a large hyperechoic mass which occupied the left ventricle. The cardiac nuclear magnetic resonance

Cardiac lipomas are rarely diagnosed tumors of heart. They are encapsulated and matured lipoid tumors that are diagnosed equally in all age groups and sexes. Cardiac lipoma are diagnosed mostly in the left ventricle, right atrium, and interatrial septum. We present a 62-year-old symptomatic patient

A 39-year-old inpatient at a tumor orthopedic department with a history of a chondrosarcoma in the scapula presented with a destructive tumorous lesion in the staging computed tomography (CT). After ambiguous results in CT-guided biopsy and an open biopsy, a surgical removal of a tumorous lesion was
