The diffuse interstitial lung diseases are a heterogeneous group of diffuse inflammatory disorders of the lower respiratory tract characterized by derangements of the alveolar walls and loss of functional alveolar capillary units. The most common causes of diffuse interstitial lung diseases are idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, sarcoidosis, collagen vascular disorders, hypersensitivity pneumonitis and pneumoconiosis. Especially, the miliary tuberculosis is also leading cause in Korea, but pulmonary tuberculosis presenting as diffuse interstitial lung disease except miliary tubercuaosis is rare. We report a case of pulmonary tuberculosis presenting as diffuse interstitial lung disease associated with the tyrnphadenopathy of mediastinum and abdomen.

Acute bilateral renal cortical necrosis is a rare cause of acute reanl failure, occuring in about 2% of patients and it's prognosis is fatal. The pathophysiology of this condition is complex, but ultimately leads to the destruction of the renal cortex with sparing of the renal medulla and a thin tissue rim of under the capsule.

In this report we describe a 23-year-old female patient in whom the diagnosis was made using MR imaging during the acute initial phase of the disease. On T1-weighted images, the signal intensity of the renal cortex was increased, but the signal intensity of the renal cortex was demarcated by a rim of low signal intensity in the region of the corticomedullary junction. MR imaging is useful, noninvasive, and specific modality for an early diagnosis of acute bilateral renal cortical necrosis.

Pancreatic pseudocyst is one of the most common compications of pancreatitis or pancreatic injury. It can occur at any site in ted abdomen but rarely in the liver. The ultrasound and computed tomography are invaluable imaging techniques for the detection of a pseudocyst We have recently experienced an uncommon case of pseudocyst in 54-year-old man, who had complained of severe epigastric pain and fever. The pseudocyst in the left hepatic lobe was diagnosed by abdominal sonography and computed tomography with clinical and laboratory findings. It was treated successfully by percutaneous catheter drainage.
