Abstract
CASE A 76-year-old woman presented with a 2-month history of right shoulder pain with no apparent cause. Radiography revealed an ill-defined osteolytic lesion in the right scapular spine with a pathological fracture. Malignant bone tumor was suspected, and a biopsy was performed. Pathological examination with gold hydroxamic acid staining revealed phosphoglyceride crystal deposition. Lesion curettage was performed, and her symptoms improved. No recurrence was observed at the 3-year postoperative follow-up. CONCLUSION Phosphoglyceride crystal deposition in the bone is an extremely rare disease. The gold hydroxamic acid staining method might be useful for the diagnosis of this condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphoglyceride crystal deposition disease (PCDD) is a rare acquired disease in which phospholipid crystals deposit in bone and soft tissue long after surgery, trauma, or repeated injections.
CASE SUMMARY A 60-year-old-woman was referred to our department because of multiple abdominal masses after open splenectomy for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura 29 years earlier. All the masses showed marked fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET) and were strongly suspected to be malignant tumors. Surgical biopsies were performed, and the abdominal masses were found to be aligned vertically, three in a row, along the tissue layers cut in the patient’s previous surgery. Pathological finding of the specimens showed foreign body granuloma consisting of histiocytes and multinucleated giant cells accumulating around needle-like crystals. The crystals were confirmed as phosphoglyceride by Raman spectroscopy, and PCDD was diagnosed. To our knowledge, this is the first report of PCDD diagnosed by Raman spectroscopy.
CONCLUSION We made a definitive diagnosis of PCDD in a patient with multiple tumors showing marked FDG uptake on 18F-FDG-PET by incisional biopsy and compo- sition analysis using Raman spectroscopy, a method that has not previously been reported for the diagnosis of PCDD.

Abstract
We present a rare case of phosphoglyceride crystal deposition disease (PCDD), as a gynecologic disease, with reference to histogenesis of crystal deposition. An 84-year-old woman, who had undergone simple hysterectomy for uterine leiomyoma 44 years previously, presented with multiple masses in the bilateral adnexa and the pelvic wall. The bilateral adnexal tumors were resected. The masses histologically revealed a foreign-body granuloma composed of numerous tiny, radially arranged needle-like crystal lumps surrounded by multinucleated giant cells and macrophages. The crystals showed birefringence under polarized light and were positive for gold hydroxamic acid stain, and the tumor was thus diagnosed as PCDD. The masses revealed central cystic changes due to old hemorrhage, which contained crystal lumps without foreign-body reaction or birefringence. The present case demonstrated for the first time that phosphoglyceride crystals developed in old hemorrhagic foci, although it was not confirmed whether the old hemorrhagic foci were formed after hysterectomy or due to endometriosis.

Abstract
Phosphoglycerides are the major lipid component of all cell membranes. Phosphoglyceride crystal deposition disease (PCDD) is defined as the deposition of phosphoglyceride crystals and is considered a lipid metabolic disorder. It predominantly involves injured soft tissues, ultimately forming foreign body granulomas. We present a case of complete resection of PCDD in a 48-year-old woman, in whom the PCDD originated from a myocardial wound created at the time of surgical repair of a ventricular septal defect 40 years ago. We underscore that familiarity with this disease entity will help to stimulate accurate diagnosis and timely treatment.
