Association Between Spontaneous Internal Carotid Artery Dissection and Perivascular Adipose Tissue Attenuation on Computed Tomography Angiography
This study evaluated the CT attenuation of PVAT surrounding the internal carotid artery (PVATcarotid) with and without spontaneous dissection.

Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma in a Prosthetic Aortic Graft
We describe the case of a 70-year-old man with Marfan Syndrome who was found to have Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) within an ascending aortic graft, his native aortic arch and arch vessels. Ten years previously he had undergone a Bentall's Procedure for a dilated aortic root. He presented with a left middle cerebral artery stroke. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed multiple filling defects within the aortic arch and branch vessels suggestive of thrombus. Following the stroke, his neurological deficit improved.

Non-Bacterial Aortic Valve Vegetation
A 31 year-old man was referred to our hospital for management of a 2cm×2.3cm lesion seen on the left coronary cusp of his aortic valve on transoesophageal echocardiogram (, panel A and B). There was a mild gradient across the aortic valve (mean gradient of 17mmHg) and some mild eccentric aortic regugitation as a consequence of the lesion. Echocardiography had been performed after an ejection systolic murmur was noted by his local medical officer. He denied symptoms of infection or congestive cardiac failure. Routine initial investigations were unremarkable. Multiple sets of blood cultures were negative. Urgent antiphospho...
