Résumé: La thrombose veineuse ovarienne est une complication rare du post-partum. L'embolie pulmonaire est une complication grave qu'il faut craindre dans cette affection. Le diagnostic est assuré par l'imagerie médicale. Nous rapportons un cas de thrombose bilatérale post-césarienne des veines ovariennes compliquée d'une embolie pulmonaire, chez une patiente de 31 ans, révélée par un syndrome infectieux persistant. Le diagnostic a été fait au scanner thoraco-abdomino-pelvien. Nous rappelons à travers ce cas les aspects diagnostiques en imagerie médicale. Ovarian vein thrombosis is a rare complication of the post-partum period. Pulmonary embolism is a serious complication that should be feared in this condition. The diagnosis is made by medical imagery. We report a case of bilateral post-cesarean ovarian vein thrombosis complicated by pulmonary embolism, in a 31-year-old patient, revealed by a persistent infectious syndrome. The diagnosis was made with a thoraco-abdomino-pelvic CT scan. Through this case, we recall the diagnostic aspects in medical imaging. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB) is a rare malignant intrathoracic mesenchymal tumour with a variable aggressiveness. It is the most common primary malignancy in the lung during childhood. In this study, we present a case of a 3-year-old male child who complained of persistent dry cough. Radiographs suggested the diagnosis of PPB, which was been confirmed by the histo-pathological examination of a biopsy taken from the tumour under CT guidance. This case was reported to emphasise the importance of radiology, whether diagnotic or interventional, in diagnosing rare cases such as PPB., Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest: The authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest regarding the publication of this paper., (© 2021 The Authors.
