A fi ve-month-old female infant presented with three episodes of right focal motor seizures. Clinical examination showed a capillary hemangioma over the left forehead and pre-auricular region. Seizures were controlled with intravenous antiepileptic medication following which she was started on oral maintenance antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain with contrast study was performed in view of the port wine stain and seizures. The study showed cerebral atrophy involving the left fronto-temporal region. Abnormal white matter hypointensity on T2 weighted and T2-FLAIR was noted in the affected lobe suggestive of accelerated myelination [ Figure 1a and b]. The left frontal diploic space appeared enlarged. Post-contrast study showed intense leptomeningeal enhancement in the left fronto-temporal region with prominent enhancing cortical/medullary veins [ Figure 2]. The left choroid plexus also appeared enlarged.

Uterine leiomyomas or fibroids are the most common neoplasm of the uterus. These are commonly encountered in middle aged women in the reproductive age group. Depending upon the location within the uterus and their size, fibroids can be symptomatic or asymptomatic. The common symptoms are of abnormal vaginal bleeding and pain. Fibroids can undergo secondary changes like hyaline, cystic or red degeneration, calcification and sarcomatous transformation and imaging features in these conditions can mimic different pelvic pathologies.
