Going out on a limb for a difficult diagnosis: a case report.

Abstract:

:Sacral tumors with fetiform features are rare and pose a diagnostic challenge to the ultrasonologist. Sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCT) and parasitic twins can have very similar sonographic features but have different implications to an affected pregnancy. While postnatal histopathology is ultimately necessary to distinguish between a SCT and a heteropagus twin, certain characteristics, such as the presence of a vertebral column and the pattern and rate of tumor growth, may be useful to guide counseling and management decisions.

  • Correlation of gallium-67 SPECT and CT findings in primary gynecologic lymphoma.

    abstract::Primary gynecologic malignant lymphomas are rare and gallium (Ga)-67 imaging has proven to be useful to differentiate viable lymphoma from fibrotic or necrotic tissue. Computed tomographic (CT) scan is often used in initial localization and staging of the lymphoma. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the findin...
