    Bilateral recurrent external obturator muscle hematoma: An unusual cause of pelvic pain in hemophilia
    (SPANDIDOS PUBL LTD, 2016-01-01) Arpaci, Taner; Sasmaz, Ilgen; Akbas, Tugana; Eken, Alper; Ozgur, Anil; Antmen, Bulent
    Following joint hemorrhages, intramuscular hemorrhages are the second most prevalent bleeding pattern in hemophiliac patients. Hematomas of the iliopsoas muscle are a well-known complication of hemophilia

    A rare case of paratesticular leiomyoma in a child
    (AVES, 2019-01-01) Arslan, Aydan; Ulus, Sila; Ince, Umit; Tekant, Gonca; Karaarslan, Ercan
    Leiomyomas are benign, slow-growing, smooth muscle tumors, which can occur at many locations in the body. The male genitourinary tract is seldom affected and scrotal leiomyomas are extremely rare. Most of the scrotal leiomyomas are localized in the testis, epididymis, spermatic cord, subcutaneous tissue, tunica albuginea, and scrotal skin and only a few of them are reported in the origin of isolated tissue without paratesticular structures in the paratesticular region. We are presenting a case of solitary paratesticular leiomyoma in a child, which is very rare in terms of lesion location and patient age, and describing the imaging features of this lesion.

    Initial Outcomes and Assessment of the Transperineal Multiparametric-Magnetic Resonance Imaging/Ultrasonography Fusion Biopsy Method in Diagnosing Clinically-significant Prostate Cancer
    (GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2017-01-01) Ozgen, Mahir B.; Ozveren, Bora; Uzel, Sertac; Altug, Ugur; Turkeri, Levent
    Objective: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the success of transperineal multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI)/transrectal ultrasonography (USG) fusion prostate biopsy method in prostate cancer diagnosis and detection of clinically significant cancer. Materials and Methods: All patients signed written informed consent then patients with an indication for prostate cancer, therefore biopsy was planned for the last year underwent 3 Tesla mp-MRI retrospectively. All the lesions of patients with Prostate Imaging, Reporting and Data System (PIRADS) 3, 4 and 5 lesions were marked using MIM (TM) Symphony software by a single radiologist. All patients underwent transperineal MRI/USG fusion biopsy under general anesthesia. In the prostate MRI evaluation of the targeted lesions with a PIRADS score of 3-4-5 were sampled with 2 to 5 cores followed by random biopsies of both of the prostate lobes. Results: Prostate adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 20 of 59 patients (33.8\%) having fusion biopsy. No difference was observed in prostate-specific antigen levels of patients whose biopsy results were benign and malignant. In 63\% of patients, only PIRADS 3 lesions were found, whereas PIRADS 4 and/or 5 lesions were reported in 22 (37\%) patients. The fusion biopsy of PIRADS 3 lesions revealed cancer in 7 patients (19\%), of which 6 had clinically-insignificant prostate cancer criteria. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in 59\% who had PIRADS 4 and/or 5 lesions. All these tumors had clinically-significant cancer characteristics. Lesion-targeted fusion biopsies missed 1 clinically-insignificant adenocarcinoma (1/7

    The Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Evaluating Atypical Inflammatory Demyelinating Lesions
    (TURKISH NEUROLOGICAL SOC, 2021-01-01) Ozdemir, Zeynep; Acar, Erkan; Soysal, Aysun
    Objective: The diagnosis of patients with atypical demiyelinating lesions has always been challenging, sometimes leading to a biopsy. Recent literature has radiologically classified atypical inflammatory demyelinating lesions as ring-like, Balo-like, infiltrative, megacystic, and unclassified lesions. In this study, we aimed to assess the demographics and clinical and radiologic findings in patients with atypical lesions. Materials and Methods: The records of 320 patients with demyelinating disorders were retrospectively assessed using iMed database. Patients with atypical lesions and whose magnetic resonance imaging evaluations were included. Clinical and radiologic findings were evaluated and lesions were classified according to the recommended criteria. Results: Twenty-seven patients (16 females) were included and the mean age was 34.26 +/- 6.12 (range: 26-49) years. Fourteeen patients had ring-like, three had Balo-like, three had megacystic, five had infiltrative, and two patients had unclassified lesions. Diffusion restriction was observed in contrast-enhancing sites in ring-like lesions, heterogeneously in infiltrative lesions and also peripherally in Balo-like lesions. Two patients with infiltrative lesions had additional lesions on follow-up and had to undergo biopsy. Two patients died despite aggressive treatment. Two patients with Balo-like lesions were evaluated as having acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and did not have further relapses. Seventeen patients from the study group converted to multiple sclerosis (MS) on follow-up. Conclusion: Differential diagnosis of atypical inflammatory demyelinating lesions is not always easy, the prognosis is not different from MS lesions. Mostly, ringlike lesions seem to convert to MS with recurrent relapses
