[Confusion in the diagnosis of endobronchial tumor].

Bronchopulmonary cancer is the leading cause of death in men and the second in women. Some endoscopic or radiological features may guide histological diagnosis and thus facilitate therapeutic management. We here report the case of a 54-year old man, with a history of smoking and recent coronary stent implantation, presenting with haemoptysis and worsening of dyspnea which had evolved over the last month.

Chemo-embolization in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma: should we switch to charged particles in our countries? About 102 procedures of a North African radiology center.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a public health problem in african countries. The chemoembolization (CE) could represent the only therapeutic strategy. Two methods can be proposed: charged microparticles and lipiodol chemoembolization.

Ciliated cyst of the gallbladder: A new case and literature review.

Introduction: The ciliated cyst is a rare anomaly that develops from the anterior primitive intestine. Its localization is essentially supra diaphragmatic. It's localization in the gallbladder is very uncommon.

Spontaneous rupture of the common hepatic duct associated with acute pancreatitis: a case report.

Background: Rupture of the common bile duct is a life-threatening condition, usually observed after a trauma or in association with choledocholithiasis or an obstructive tumor of the bile duct. However, a spontaneous rupture of the common bile duct is a rare entity.

Case Presentation: We report a new observation of a spontaneous rupture of the common bile duct, associated with biliary peritonitis and pancreatitis, in a 15-year-old North African girl.

Spontaneous uretero-sigmoid fistula secondary to calculus.

A 25-year-old man was referred to the urology department after a subacute history of left back pain, burning micturition associated with pneumaturia and fecaluria. Ultrasonography was performed showing hydronephrosis, and plain film radiography demonstrated a long vertical left pelvic calculi. Uro-computed tomography (CT) combined with a water enema CT showed a 10 cm long calculus with the cranial extremity fistulating the sigmoidal wall.

Role of Computed tomography in predicting prognosis of Hepatic portal venous gas.

Background: The aim of this study was to report through 13 cases the particularities of abdominal computed tomography (CT) aspects of hepatic portal venous gas (HPVG) and its correlation with patient prognosis.

Methods: We analyzed abundance of HPVG and its association with pneumatosis intestinalis (PI) in correlation with fatal outcome using chi-square tests.

Results: Etiologies were mesenteric infarction (n=5), sigmoid diverticulitis (n= 1), septic shock (n=1), postoperative peritonitis (n=1), acute pancreatitis (n=1), iatrogenic cause (n=3) and idiopathic after a laparotomy (n=1).

Acute epiploic appendagitis: Radiologic and clinical features of 12 patients.

Purpose: The aim of this work is to explain the clinical features and the imaging findings of primitive epiploic appendagitis in 12 patients.

Materials And Methods: Twelve patients were examined in 2 University hospitals between January 2011 and June 2016. Their medical charts have been reviewed.

Focal liver hyperplasia in a patient with Alagille syndrome: Diagnostic difficulties. A case report.

Introduction: Alagille syndrome is a multisystem autosomal disorder. The main clinical features are chronic cholestasis due to paucity of intrahepatic bile ducts, which can progress to cirrhosis and liver failure.

Presentation Of Case: A 15 year-old girl with Alagille syndrome was referred for liver transplantation.

Computed Tomographic presentation of obstructive jejunal adenocarcinoma associated with celiac disease and incomplete intestinal malrotation.

Introduction: Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare entity most frequently observed with celiac disease. This is the first case report on the association of celiac disease, small bowel adenocarcinoma and intestinal malrotation.

Case Report: A 40 year-old male patient diagnosed with celiac disease since the age of 5 years complained of epigastric pain and vomiting for three days.

Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas with concomitant Bochdalek's hernia. The first reported case.

Background: Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas are rare. The diagnosis is difficult because of its clinical and radiological polymorphism. It was described in the literature that this entity can be associated with congenital malformation.

Tumour growth rates and RECIST criteria in early drug development.

Purpose: The evaluation of treatment efficacy with RECIST criteria does not take into account tumour growth dynamics. We notably investigated the impact of the pre-treatment tumour growth rate (GR) on the evaluation of treatment response.

Patients And Methods: Seventy-six patients included in phase I clinical trials had scanographic evaluations before and after starting an experimental treatment.
