Intracranial aspergillosis is a rare pathologic condition, difficult to treat and often fatal, which generally affects irnmunodepressed patients. A case of brain abscess secondary to pulmonary localization in a patient with a non-Hodgkin lymphoma is described. The most significant clinico-pathological findings of intracranial aspergillosis are examined in the light of the relevant literature.
Glomus tumors are rare, benign lesions that arise from glomus bodies present in the stratum reticularis throughout the body, but they are highly concentrated in the tips of the digits, especially under the nail. Although glomus tumors are benign lesions, they can cause disabling symptoms, therefore early diagnosis and treatment is important. We report an exceptional case of glomangioma of the calf.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
