Intussusception in the elderly.

We present the case of an 82-year-old Caucasian lady with a 16-day history of colicky lower abdominal pain and reduced appetite. When presenting to hospital she was haemodynamically stable with no fever. Examination revealed a soft but tender abdomen with normal bowel sounds.

Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia: a case report.

Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is a rare benign proliferating breast condition. It was first reported in 1986 when Vuitch, Rosen, and Erlandson described nine cases of benign well-circumscribed, breast masses that simulated vascular lesions consisting of mammary stromal proliferations (Vuitch et al. (1986)).

An appendicular mass mimicking a bladder tumour.

We present a case of an appendicular mass mimicking symptoms of a bladder tumour in a 27-year-old female. The patient initially presented with a 5-month history of intermittent lower abdominal pain associated with dysuria, anorexia and weight loss. Cystoscopy revealed an erythematous urothelium with the appearance of a solid mass bulging into the bladder posteriorly.

Posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint: a case report and review of the clinical anatomy of the region.

Posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint is an uncommon injury. Since 1824, when Sir Astley Cooper described the injury, little more than 100 cases have been described, and the majority of these have been in the last decade, identified by computed tomography. The significant morbidity and mortality associated with this injury is based upon serious damage to important anatomical structures found in the vicinity of the joint.

Updated audit database for breast imaging/histopathology correlation.

Aim: To develop, test and validate an audit database, evolved from a prior, peer-reviewed, audit tool for symptomatic multi-modality breast imaging services.

Materials And Methods: The database is to cover all aspects of non-invasive breast imaging and recognize subspeciality inputs. When more than one imaging investigation is used for diagnosis, an overall breast imaging audit grade is to be introduced.
