To investigate dual-energy spectral CT in characterization of hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) patients with chronic liver disease.Dynamic computed tomography (CT) was performed 3600 (2879 males; 721 females, mean age 50.9 ± 11.9 years) working clinical diagnosis cirrhosis for carcinoma screening and other indications. The study conducted over a period 3 years. During dynamic scanning, (monochromatic) routine (polychromatic) acquisitions were obtained on single tube, dual energy, 64 slice...
Visceral larva migrans (VLM) is an uncommon parasitic infection most commonly caused by Toxocara canis and cati. Imaging features of hepatic VLM on contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) include presence small, single or multiple (usually less than two cms in diameter) hypovascular eosinophilic abscesses seen enhancing only portal venous phase (PVP) triple liver study. Review literature revealed that CT peripheral eosinophilia the blood has been mainstay clinical diagnosis majority...
Extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumors (EGISTs) are a recently described group of tumors. A handful less than 70 cases have been reported in English literature, so far, to the best our knowledge. Gastrointestinal (GISTs) most common mesenchymal neoplasms alimentary canal. EGISTs unique entity, which require distinction from GISTs because, even though, they exhibit similar histology and immunohistochemistry GISTs, occur outside gastrointestinal tract, i.e. omentum, mesentery, retroperitoneum,...
<b>Background</b>: To study CT and MR findings in xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC).<br /> <b>Material/Methods</b>: Retrospective analysis of 30 histopathologically confirmed cases XGC. Seventeen patients underwent CECT 13 MRI. The following features were studied – wall thickness, intramural nodules, pericholecystic stranding, THAD, fat gallbladder wall, cholelithiasis, infiltration, biliary dilatation, lymph nodes, complications.<br...
ObjectiveTo analyze and evaluate the diagnostic performance of conventional (qualitative) imaging features versus LI-RADSv2018 lexicon for indeterminate atypical Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on dynamic liver with reference to histopathology.Patients methodsThis retrospective study (June 2009–June 2019) evaluated characteristics findings, Liver Imaging Reporting Data System (LIRADS) v2018, interpretation HCC, in patients who underwent subsequent histopathological analysis (gold standard). A...
The aim of the study was to four week patency rates reconstructed neo middle hepatic vein specifically using explant portal (PV) in right hemiliver live donor liver transplantation (LDLT). We hypothesized that short term neo-MHV should result good graft and patient outcomes.Pre, intra post operative variables were prospectively collected for 88 consecutive patients undergoing LDLT from January 2014 October 2015.Explant PV used reconstruct 76 (86.4%, 76/88) patients. Neo MHV rate at 28 days...
We have discussed a unique presentation of primary diffuse large cell B-cell non-Hodgkin (DLBC NHL) hepatic lymphoma involving the porta hepatis and biliary confluence causing obstructive jaundice with contiguous soft tissue involvement right lobe liver extending up to renal cortex. This appears be only case in literature where has shown localized intra- extrahepatic tumor infiltration. A 67-year-old gentleman presented history significant loss appetite weight 2 months associated progressive...
Abstract Background There is limited scientific evidence on the potential of spectral computed tomography (SCT) for differentiation nodules in cirrhotic liver. We aimed to assess SCT-generated material density (MD) parameters nodule characterisation cirrhosis. Methods Dynamic dual-energy SCT scans patients performed over 3 years were retrospectively reviewed. They classified as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), regenerative or indeterminate, according European Association Study Liver criteria....
Neuroendocrine tumor metastases to the liver can mimic primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on imaging, cytology, and core biopsy. We present a case study along with literature review of patient who presented as solitary mass mimicking HCC subsequently underwent partial hepatectomy. The histopathology immunohistochemisrty resected specimen revealed metastatic neuroendocrine carcinoma. Positron emission tomography (PET) scan (68)Ga-DOTA-NaI-octreotide ((68)Ga-DOTANOC) localized in ileum. A...
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a soft tissue malignant musculoskeletal tumour and the most prevalent soft-tissue sarcoma in paediatric population. Although, Embryonal RMS of biliary tree rare entity, however, it common cause obstructive jaundice. We present 4-year-old child who had symptoms jaundice palpable liver. The non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) features were consistent with choledochal cyst. However, contrast enhanced computed tomography PET CT images...
To assess the role of contrast enhanced ultrasonography in evaluation hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at first Indian tertiary liver center.Retrospective analysis ultrasound (CEUS) examinations over 24 mo for diagnosis, surveillance, characterization and follow up 50 patients context HCC was performed. The source indication referrals, change referral rate, accuracy usefulness CEUS a center equipped with 64 slice dual energy computer tomography (CT) 3 tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)...
To assess the performance of shear wave ultrasound elastography (SWE) for non-invasive grading fibrosis in normal BMI patients with varied aetiology chronic liver disease.Prospective SWE and spleen stiffness (LS, SS respectively) 124 (94 men, mean age 45.4 ± 12.4 years, 19.66 1.49) CLD mixed aetiology, who underwent biopsy, between January 2019-20 was analysed using receiver operating curve (ROC) classification analysis regression tree (CART) to determine cut-off values nominal logistical...
We report the clinical presentation, imaging findings, intra-operative appearance and pathological results of an exophytic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) upper pole kidney which was presumed to arise from ipsilateral adrenal gland. The origin mass virtually indistinguishable on intraoperatively. It determined only at histopathology examination resected tumor specimen. authors are presenting few observations based retrospective analysis finding this diagnostic dilemna. This case highlights...
Core tip: Extra hepatic manifestation of viral hepatitis B infection may be its first presenting symptom.This unusual presentation in the form hypertension a middle aged patient which is usually part vasculitis like disease process such as polyarteritis nodosa (PAN).PAN an independent entity missed specialized clinics evaluating liver pathologies, due to insidious onset, atypical clinical symptoms and multi-systemic involvement.It prudent for diagnosticians physicians aware this imaging...
