Holoprosencephaly is a rare and complex malformation affecting the cleavage of the developing forebrain and is usually associated with defects of the mid Face. We have experienced a case of holoprosencephaly, diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound examination at 31 weeks of pregnancy in a 31-year-old primigravida woman. This case is characterized by holoprosencephaly, cleft palate, cleft lip, left renal aplasia and right renal hypertrophy. The chromosomal study showed a deletion of the long arm of chromosome 7, 46, XX, del(7)(q32), We report with a terminal deletion of chromosome 7q associated with atypical clinical picture and holoprosencephaly.

Cervical tuberculous lymphadenitis is a commonly encountered disease, expecially in adults, Differentiation from other lymphadenopathy and benign conditions such as cystic neck masses is important. CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenopathy in the abdomen and thorax are reported in many literatures. But there are only a few articles concerning cervical tuberculous lymphadenopathy. The authors retrospectively analyzed CT findings of 33 cases with cervical tuberculous lymphadenitis regarding distribution, contour, enhancing pattern, changes of adjacent fascial plane, and dermal and subcutaneous manifestations. We concluded that the presence of conglomerated nodal masses with central lucency, thick irregular rim of contrast enhancement and inner nodularity, varying degree of homogenous enhancement in smaller nodes, dermal and subcutaneous manifestations of inflammation such as thickening of overlying skin, engorgement of the lymphatic and thickening of adjacent muscles, and diffusely effaced fascial plane are suggestive of tuberculous lymphadenitis. However, some CT patterns of tuberculous adenitis may be seen in other disease; for example, enhancement can occur in hyperplastic nodes, vascular metastasis(thyroid, melanoma, and hypernephroma), lymphoma, granulomatous disease, and Castleman's disease.
