Calcifying epithelioma of malherbe (Pilomatrixoma): Clinical and sonographic features
ConclusionsThe diagnosis of calcifying epithelioma should be considered in a patient with a painless, circumscribed, oval‐shaped hypoechoic mass with internal calcifications and internal vascularity in the subcutaneous soft tissues of the head or neck. The mass may be small and have well‐defined margins, with hypoechogenicity. © 2017 The Authors Journal of Clinical Ultrasound Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Prenatal sonographic diagnosis of nondysraphic intramedullary lipomas: A case report
ABSTRACT
Nondysraphic intramedullary lipomas of the spinal cord are rare, and there are currently no reports of their observation in utero. Here, we present the sonographic (US) findings in such a case. Four intraspinal hyperechoic masses were observed on US on the dorsal aspect of the fetal spine in a 30‐year‐old woman at 30 weeks' gestation. Findings were consistent with those of prenatal MRI and were confirmed on autopsy after induced abortion. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effects of chronic smoking on total cerebral blood volume measured by carotid and vertebral artery doppler ultrasonography
ConclusionsDoppler US is an effective tool to detect tCBF volume decrease in chronic cigarette smokers. Although minimal, this decrease, as demonstrated here in asymptomatic, healthy people, might be critical in patients with subclinical cerebral arterial insufficiency. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Left atrial compression with acute heart failure caused by esophageal bolus
We report a case of left atrial extrinsic compression caused by an esophageal food bolus in a patient presenting with acute heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography along with contrast‐enhanced CT showed evidence of esophageal dilation producing left atrial compression. Esophageal endoscopy and fragmentation of the bolus, allowing the accumulated food to descend into the stomach, produced a rapid improvement of hemodynamic and clinical status. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
