Proximal Radial Head Fractures in Young Gymnasts: A Case Series of Newly Described Overuse Injuries.

We report a case series of unilateral Salter-Harris IV fractures of the proximal radial heads in young female gymnasts. To date, there are no previous reports of such injuries in gymnastics. In all 3 athletes, no significant injury preceded presentation or diagnosis.

Hip joint fluid: detection and distribution at MR imaging and US with cadaveric correlation.

Purpose: To define the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging appearance of a hip effusion.

Materials And Methods: Fifty-two asymptomatic hips in 26 volunteers aged 20-37 years and five fractured hips were imaged at 1.5 T with T2-weighting in three planes.

Case report 865. Bacillary angiomatosis.

A case of bacillary angiomatosis was presented, characterized by subcutaneous lesions, systemic symptoms, and impressive periostitis which initially masked a small cortical lytic lesion. Review of the reported cases suggests that a diagnosis of bacillary angiomatosis should be strongly considered when periostitis is identified in an AIDS patient with skin lesions. Additionally, deep surgical biopsy of the skin lesion to include the subcutaneous tissue should be performed to confirm the diagnosis if the initial punch biopsies are unrevealing.
