Intraosseous lipoma is a benign tumor that originates from proliferating mature lipocytes. It often occurs in the metaphysis of long bones of the lower extremity, and also in the calcaneus, humerus, mandible, sacrum, and rib bones. Frequently, it involutes spontaneously through a process of infarction, calcification, and cyst formation. It can either present as pain, or be asymptomatic and only discovered through an incidental radiological finding. In our case, the patient presented with heel pain. Intraoperatively, it was found that the intraosseous cavity was filled with fat along with an adjacent but separate area of cystic degeneration. There was also a cortical perforation at the cystic lesion which was communicating with the subtalar joint. This cortical breach is most likely the cause of diffuse lateral heel pain experienced by our patient, and such a pathological fracture due to intraosseous lipoma has never been reported.

신장의 유상피 혈관근지방종은 혈관근지방종의 드문 변이형으로 현저한 유상피세포로 구성되어 있다. 유상피 혈관근지방종은 일반적으로 종양 내부의 출혈과 다양한 정도의 괴사 혹은 낭성 변화를 동반한 크기가 큰 불균일한 연조직 종괴로 나타난다. 우리는 64세 여성에서 발견된 신세포암으로 오인된 다방성 낭종 형태의 신장의 유상피 혈관근지방종에 대해 발표하려 한다. 낭종 내 다량의 출혈, 조영 전 검사에서 고음영의 벽과 격막, 그리고 비대된 종괴 내혈관들이 신세포암을 감별하는 데 있어 도움이 될 수 있다.

Ganglion cysts causing suprascapular nerve compression are uncommon cause of suprascapular nerve entrapment. The advent of magnetic resonance imaging and its application in patients with shoulder pain has improved the ability to diagnose cystic lesions causing extrinsic compression of the suprascapular nerve. We present two cases of suprascapular nerve compression by ganglion cyst which was decompressed by surgical excision. Suprascapular nerve compression was also revealed by magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), electromyogram(EMG) and clinical present of muscle atrophy and motor weakness. In each case, the symptom was resolved after sugical excision of the cystic lesion. We experienced two cases of suprascapular nerve entrapment by ganglion cyst and report the clinical, radiological and pathological findings in detail.

Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation [C.C.A.M], one of lung bud anomalies, is an unusual lesion, only about 200 cases baring been reported by 1980, and characterized by marked proliferation of terminal respiratory structures. Recently we experienced two infants with C.C.A,M., whose clinical courses were quite different. On case 1, the patient was 25-day-old female, and suffered from progressive respiratory distress for 10 days duration. A right middle lobectomy was performed, with a satisfactory postoperative course. On case II, the patient was 7omonth-old male, and admitted for evaluation of known pulmonary anomaly, which was detected for the first time during hospitalization for treatment of pneumonia at 1 month of his age. He underwent a lingular segmentectomy, but died of respiratory insufficiency on postop 10th day. We believe that awareness of the presence of C.C.A.M. is important in making the differential diagnosis of progressive respiratory disease or of recurrent pulmonary infection in infants.

A 18-year-old man had a painless swelling in the right anterior portion of maxilla for 2 years. On radiographic examination, a radiolucent region that was not associated with an unerupted tooth was seen. Small scattered radiopaque foci were seen in the cystic lumen. At second case, a 16-year-old girl had a painless swelling in the anterior portion of maxilla for 3 years. On radiographic examination, a radiolucent region that associated with an unerupted tooth was seen. Multiple scattered radiopaque foci were seen in the radiolucent cystic lumen. With the patient under local anesthesia, well encapsulated tumors were enucleated. The diagnosis made in the pathologist's report was Adenomatoid Odontogenic Tumor, benign lesion often having distinct clinical and radiographic features.

To exhibit our clinical experience of diffusion-weighted (DW) MR imaging for various brain pathologies and to determine its role in characterizing brain pathologies in children. DW images in 177 children (M：F＝96：81, mean age, 4.7 years) with various brain pathologies were retrospectively collected over past 3 years. DW images (b value： 1000 s/mm) were reviewed along with corresponding apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps. Brain pathologies included cystic or solid brain tumor (n = 55), cerebral infarct (n = 32), cerebritis with or without brain abscess (n = 21), metabolic or toxic brain disorder (n = 19), demyelinating disease (n = 16), hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (n = 16), intracerebral hemorrhage including traumatic brain lesion (n = 15), and posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy (n = 3). We reviewed whether DW images and ADCmaps contribute to further characterization of brain pathologies by defining a chronological age of lesions, the presence of cytotoxic edema in lesions, and the nature of cystic lesions.

Spinal cysticercosis is a very uncommon manifestation of neurocysticercosis which is caused by the larvae of Taenia solium. However, it can develop as a primary infection through blood stream or direct larval migration. It can result in high recurrence and severe neurologic morbidity if not treated appropriately. We report the case of a 43-year-old woman who presented with severe lower back pain and left leg radiating pain in recent 2 weeks. Magnetic resonance image (MRI) of lumbar spine demonstrated extruded disc at the L5-S1 level combined with intradural extramedullary cystic lesion. We performed the open lumbar microdiscectomy (OLM) at L5-S1 on the left with total excision of cystic mass. After surgery, the patient showed an improvement of previous symptoms. Diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination as intradural extramedullary cysticercosis. We discuss clinical features, diagnostic screening, and treatment options of spinal cysticercosis.

Although intraperitoneal teratomas are rare, teratomas of the greater omentuma are seldom reported. A single case of omental teratoma with torsion in a 26-month-old girl is reported. The patient presented with abdominal pain and a palpable mass. Ultrasonography and CT of the abdomen showed a large cystic mass with a non homgenious solid component composed of fat and calcification. The lesion was surgically excised. Pathology revealed a mature omental teratoma. The hospital course was uneventful.

Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital malformation characterized by a cystic portion of the lung that derives its arterial blood supply through aberrant vessel directly of systemic circulation. Intralobar pulmonary sequestration Is usually contained within the visceral pleura of a pulmonary lobe and its venous drainage to the pulmonary venous system. We experienced a case of pulmonary sequestration preoperatively confirmed. The patient was 17 year old female whose complaints were mild fever and profuse purulent sputum. Chest film showed a large thin walled cystic lesion with air-fluid level at the left lower posterior basal lung field. Aortogram revealed an aberrant artery originated from thoracic aorta just above the diaphragm and that drained via pulmonary vein into the left atrium. At time of operation, a large abscess cavity measuring 9x8x3 cm in dimension at the left lower lobe was noted. And the aberrant artery, measuring 0.5 cm in diameter and 2 cm in length, arising from thoracic aorta just above the diaphragm was noted. After division and ligation of the aberrant artery, a left lower lobectomy was performed and the patient`s postoperative course was uneventful.

The congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation [C.C.A.M.] of the lung is a rare lesion consisted of multiple cysts in the pulmonary parenchyma lined cuboidal or columnar epithelium. The C.C.A.M. presents clinically in three ways:[1] stillborn or perinatal death, [2] progressive respiratory distress in the newborn, and [3] acute and chronic pulmonary nfections in the older infant and child. We recently experienced two cases of C.C.A.M. of the lung, and have good surgical results. The first case was 29 days old male and the second case was 16 month old female who have been suffered from severe respiratory difficulty and pulmonary infection repeatedly each other. The lobectomies were performed, and the postoperative course was uneventful.
