    Abstract Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour (DSRCT) is a rare malignancy that has only a few cases documented in the literature. We report a case of DSRCT in the abdomen and pelvis that was identified following ultrasound-guided biopsy of one of the numerous liver lesions seen on imaging in a 13-year-old Afro-Caribbean female with increased abdominal girth. The tumour was characterized by all routine imaging modalities available at the time. To our knowledge, this is the first reported and published case in the English speaking Caribbean. In the review of the literature, we correlate the imaging findings with previously reported cases. The diagnosis of DSRCT cannot be made solely using standard imaging techniques, but radiologists should be suspicious of DSRCT as a differential diagnosis in a young patient with increased abdominal girth, multiple liver and peritoneal deposits seen on imaging. Written informed consent for the case to be published (incl. images, case history, and data) was obtained from the parents of this patient for publication of this case report, including accompanying images.

    Abstract The identification of large numbers of tubuloreticular inclusions (TRIs) in renal biopsies may be useful to raise diagnostic suspicion for certain clinical entities, particularly autoimmune diseases and viral infections. We report a case of a 65-year-old female with a 2-week history of malaise, massive proteinuria and lower extremity edema of acute onset. A renal biopsy was performed and the diagnosis of non-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) tip-located, early focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) was established. The electron microscopy examination was remarkable for the presence of diffuse foot process effacement and frequent TRIs in the endothelial cells of the glomerular capillary loops, endothelium of arterioles and cytoplasm of fibroblasts in the interstitium, highly suggestive of an underlying etiology. Patient clinical and laboratory workup revealed the absence of an autoimmune disease but the presence of a subclinical cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. Therefore, we highlight that the identification of TRIs is a useful indicator of systemic interferon activity. In the present case, the unusual location of numerous TRIs was associated with a subclinical CMV infection in an immunocompetent patient.
