Abstract

Echinococcosis is still a public health problem in developing countries presenting with hepatic and pulmonary manifestations. Rarely, the clinical condition can manifest with cystic embolization to the pulmonary artery and causes significant morbidity. We present a case with hydatid embolism who has multiloculated cystic lesions in the liver and protruding into the right hemithorax through the inferior vena cava. She was diagnosed with non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography and the diagnosis was confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging because of her allergy to radiocontrast material.

Özet

Paraneoplastik nörolojik sendromlar (PNS), metastazlar, metabolik ve beslenme eksiklikleri, enfeksiyonlar, koagülopati veya kanser tedavisinin yan etkileri dışındaki mekanizmaların neden olduğu heterojen bir hastalık grubudur. Bu sendromlar serebral korteksten nöromüsküler kavşak ve kasa kadar sinir sisteminin herhangi bir bölümünü etkileyebilir. Paraneoplastik nörolojik sendrom şüphesi olan hastalar altta yatan malignite ve paraneoplastik antikorlar açısından araştırılmalıdır. Bu vaka bildirisinde, denge ve istemsiz kilo kaybı sebebiyle araştırılan ve testis tümörüne bağlı paraneoplastik serebellar sendrom tanısı konulan hasta sunulmuştur.
