Osseous lipomas are categorized according to their location into parosteal, intraosseous, and intracortical. The incidence of intraosseous lipomas is 0.1% of all bone tumors. The most frequent location is in the long tubular bones and calcaneus. This case report aims to present the radiological diagnostics of intraosseous lipoma. Case report: 43-year-old patient with Achilles tendon rupture was admitted to the orthopedic clinic. Radiography of left ankle joint detected a radiolucent, well-circumscribed lesion in the anterior aspect of the calcaneus with a sclerotic board. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed bone lesion dimension anteroposterior, craniocaudal, and laterolateral 38 x 22 x 37 mm, composed of peripheral adipose tissue and central calcified nidus, which indicate intraosseous lipoma. Based on histopathological findings, necrotic and viable bone tissue with compon...

Localization in abdominal wall is rare. Schwannomas are usually manifested as slow-growing tumour and can exist for months to years without producing symptoms. Symptomatology depends of location, involved nerve and the size of the tumour. Case report: We present a 43-year-old female patient with Schwannoma localized in the right hypochondriac region. Diagnostic procedures included high-resolution ultra sound with color Doppler (US), patohistological examination (PH) and magnetic resonance imaging (MR). High-resolution ultra sound showed the solid mass, well circumscribed, with a whorled, echogenic internal architecture in the anterior abdominal wall. MR imaging revealed oval, well-circumscribed, heterogeneous, fusiform 3 x 2.5 x 2.5 centimeters large mass. T1-weighted imaging presented low signal intensity and heterogeneously high signal intensity on T2-weighted image. The lesion was completely surgicaly removed. After histopathological examination with immunobiochemistry, the diagnose of Schwannoma was confirmed. Conclusion: Schwannoma as slow-growing tumours and of without clinical manifestation may cause a delay in diagnosis and treatment. Clinical presentation of Schwanoma is indolent and non-specific. Diagnosis of this tumor requires multidisciplinaire approach. MR is a useful method for verification peripheral nerve sheath tumors with high sensitivity and specificity. Histopathology analysis confirmed definitive diagnose of observed lesion.
