Pubmed Imaging Features of Thoracic Manifestations of Behçet's Disease: Beyond Pulmonary Artery Involvement.(2021-01-12) Yazgan, Çisel; Ertürk, Hakan; Taşkın, AyşenazBehçet's disease is a chronic multisystemic vasculitis affecting vessels of different sizes in various organs. Thoracic manifestations of the disease show a wide spectrum involving a variety of anatomic structures within the chest. However, pulmonary artery involvement is a typical manifestation of the disease that contributes significantly to mortality in patients. The study aimed to analyze CT features of thoracic manifestations, particularly pulmonary artery involvement, and to quantitatively assess bronchial arteries in Behçet's disease.Pubmed Unusual cause of filling defect in pulmonary artery: pulmonary artery sarcoma.(2020-02-12) Yazgan, Cisel; Ertürk, Hakan; Taskin, AysenazPulmonary artery (PA) sarcoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor of pulmonary artery. It is often misdiagnosed as pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) because of its clinical and imaging features which are quite similar to PTE. Multimodality diagnostic imaging and recognition of specific imaging characteristics with appropriate clinical suspicion are required to make correct diagnosis. In this report, we present a case of PA sarcoma with imaging and clinical features as well as emphasize significance of using multimodality imaging.
