Article Abstract
Subhallucal interphalangeal osteonecrosis is an uncommon cause of forefoot pain, and a rarely reported clinical entity, being often overlooked. Imaging, particularly computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have an essential role in early and differential diagnosis and guiding for appropriate therapy. The first approach should be conservative, and surgical treatment should be considered when it proves ineffective. In this case report, we describe a rare case of hallucal interphalangeal osteonecrosis manifesting a long-term hallux discomfort, successfully managed through a conservative approach, and we discuss the role of imaging techniques in its diagnosis.

Rosai-Dorfman disease mimicking IgG4-related disease.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare histiocytic disorder that may clinically and histologically resemble IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD), especially in the presence of IgG4-positive plasma cell infiltration. In this case, a 69-year-old woman with generalized lymphadenopathy, constitutional symptoms, and elevated IgG4 levels was initially suspected to have IgG4-RD based on core needle biopsy. However, further evaluation with excisional lymph node biopsy revealed emperipolesis and S100-positive histiocytes, confirming the diagnosis of RDD.

The spindle cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is exceptionally rare and poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its morphological overlap with other spindle cell lesions of the thyroid. We report a novel case of spindle cell variant PTC in a 66-year-old woman presenting with a TI-RADS 4 thyroid nodule, initially classified as Bethesda III on fine-needle aspiration. Histopathological examination revealed a biphasic tumor composed predominantly of bland spindle cells arranged in solid sheets and fascicles, admixed with entrapped thyroid follicles.

The authors present a rare variant of celiac axis anatomy including acute angle of departure, ultra-short length and «parallel» course of the main branches. When analyzing the literature on this problem, they found no similar reports. This clinical example once again emphasizes significant variability of celiac axis anatomy and the need for a thorough examination of patients using all possible diagnostic methods, especially before surgery.
