- - Cortical laminar necrosis (CLN) typically arises as a result of factors like infarcts or hypoxia, but can also be triggered by hypoglycemia, status epilepticus, and immunosuppressive therapy.
- - Usually, CLN isn't associated with trauma, making this case notable.
- - This report discusses a rare instance of CLN developing 30 days post-trauma, linked to potential spreading depolarization caused by adjacent subarachnoid hemorrhage, observed through unique radiologic findings.
Axillary lymphadenopathy ipsilateral to the vaccination site has been clinically and radiologically reported after administration of COVID-19 vaccines. This can be an important diagnostic dilemma, particularly in cancer patients who are being staged or re-staged, as this benign entity may mimic metastasis, cause unnecessary biopsies and changes in therapy. Here we present a breast cancer patient and a patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, who had already received the first two doses of mRNA type COVID-19 vaccines before, now presenting with new hypermetabolic reactive lymphadenopathy on FDG PET/CT after the third booster dose.
