AbstractLhermitte–Duclos disease, also known as dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytoma, is a rare hamartomatous tumor localized in cerebellum. An association with Cowden syndrome is observed in 50% of cases who present with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure and cerebellar ataxia. These patients have specific magnetic resonance imaging and histopathological findings. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Here, we report a case of a young female with traumatic frontal hemorrhage associated with Lhermitte–Duclos disease.

Early Tumor

PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome/Cowden syndrome (CS) is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome containing a germline PTEN mutation that leads to the development of multisystem hamartomas and oncogenesis. Benign tumors such as Lhermitte–Duclos disease and malignant tumors involving the breast, thyroid, kidneys, and uterus are seen in CS. Radiologists have an integral role in the comanagement of CS patients. We present the associated imaging findings and imaging screening recommendations. Knowledge of the types of cancers commonly seen in CS and their imaging findings can aid in early tumor recognition during cancer screening to help ensure near-normal life spans in CS patients.

Group A streptococcal toxic shock syndrome following clean surgery is a rare occurrence. Its incidence following thyroid surgery has not been described in the literature. We report on the presentation and management of severe streptococcal toxic shock syndrome following a total thyroidectomy for a multinodular goitre in a patient with Cowden syndrome. This report presents an overview of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome with a focus on the management issues to consider so as to improve patient outcome. All surgeons must maintain a high index of suspicion for this rare but dangerous entity.
