Angiomyolipomas are benign, solitary, noninvasive mesenchymal tumors. They most often arise in the kidney. Extrarenal presentations of these tumors are in skin, orophaynx, abdominal wall, gastrointestinal tract, heart, lung, liver, uterus, penis, and spinal cord. Angiomyolipoma of the mediastinum is extremely rare and is composed of an admixture of fat, smooth muscle cells, and tortuous, thick-walled, small to medium sized blood vessels. We present a surgically confirmed case of anterior mediastinal angiomyolipoma incidentally diagnosed in an asymptomatic patient. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Pulmonary hydatid cysts usually present as a single lesion, whereas multiple cases are rare. It is not easy to distinguish hydatid cyst and nodular lesions radiologically. Chest radiograph of a 22 years-old male patient who was admitted due to right sided chest pain, revealed bilateral pulmonary nodules. His computerized tomography (CT) showed 34 nodular densities in the right lung and 21 nodular densities in the left lung. At that time, metastatic lung disease was suggested . Tru-cut lung biopsy was non-diagnostic. Anti-E. granulosus IgG (ELISA) was positive and hydatid cyst disease (HCD) was set as a prediagnosis. A right thoracotomy was performed and more cysts in number than those in tomography were observed intraoperatively. Postoperatively, 800 mg per day albendazole treatment was started. CT at the second month of medical therapy revealed that the lesions were stable in number but their sizes were smaller. CT of the fourth month showed that some of the lesions became cavitary. HCD should be kept in to mind in case of doubtful radiological findings. Although main treatment modality is surgery for HCD, when all cysts can not remove with the surgical treatment in patient with multiple cysts, medical treatment can be administered.
