Assessing Placental Shear Wave Elastography as a Tool for Evaluating Preeclampsia.

Background Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, especially its dreaded complication preeclampsia, remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality for both the mother and the fetus. Existing tools for the prediction of preeclampsia remain inadequate in their sensitivity and specificity. Hence, there is an urgent need for a reliable, economically feasible, and objective marker for its diagnosis/early prediction.

Exploring Coracohumeral Ligament Elasticity Changes With Matrix Rhythm Therapy in Idiopathic Adhesive Capsulitis: A Case Report.

Idiopathic adhesive capsulitis is a complex pathology that combines inflammation and tightness of the ligamentous and capsular structures in the shoulder joint. Using methods like mobilization, strengthening exercises, and stretching modalities, physiotherapy is still the mainstay in treating adhesive capsulitis. However, novel treatment modalities are being used in various musculoskeletal conditions.

Evaluation of Bony Femoral Morphological Parameters in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Retrospective Unmatched Case-Control Study.

Background Over time, there has been a noticeable increase in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The current imperative is to anticipate predisposing factors and proactively prevent ACL injuries. The occurrence of ACL injuries has been linked to diverse factors associated with the morphology of the distal femur.

Ultrasound-Guided Pigtail Catheter Drainage: An Effective Alternative to Exploratory Laparotomy.

Introduction It has been long established that open surgeries were the only options available for the management of intra-abdominal abscesses or collections. These were associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Traditionally, the idea of percutaneous needling could not gain popularity due to poor localization of collections.

Imaging of the neurological manifestations of dengue: A case series.

Unlabelled: Dengue fever, the most common arboviral tropical disease, has shown a rapid increase in incidence over the last few decades. Increasing evidence of the various neurological manifestations in dengue has been documented in the literature. Patients positive for dengue on serology and with neurological manifestations were analysed and included in the present case series and brief review.

A case of leiomyosarcoma of the ovarian vein with obstructive uropathy and hepatic metastasis.

Unlabelled: Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a smooth muscle-derived malignant mesenchymal tumour. Primary LMS arising from the ovarian vein is uncommon. A 51-year-old female presented with left loin pain and was diagnosed with a LMS arising from the gonadal vein.

Necrotizing Fasciitis of Thoracic and Abdominal Wall with Emphysematous Pyelonephritis and Retroperitoneal Abscess.

Emphysematous pyelonephritis is a life-threatening severe form of pyelonephritis usually occurring in patients with diabetes mellitus with or without obstructive uropathies in whom there is necrotizing infection leading to the gas production of an unclear mechanism involving the renal parenchyma and the collecting system. Necrotizing fasciitis is characterized by progressive necrosis of fat and fascia due to deep-seated infection of subcutaneous tissue. It has a fulminant course with considerable mortality.

Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis - Clinico-Radiological dissociation - A case report with Radiological review.

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare chronic lung disease characterized by deposition of intra alveolar calcium and phosphate in bilateral lung parenchyma with predominance in lower and mid zones. Etiology and pathogenesis is not fully understood. However, mutation in SLC34A2 gene that encodes a sodium phosphate co-transporter in alveolar type-II cells resulting in formation and accumulation of microliths rich in calcium phosphate due to impaired clearance is considered the cause of disease.

MR imaging of carcinoma cervix.

Cervical cancer is a common gynecological malignancy and a frequent cause of death. Patient outcome depends on tumor stage, size, nodal status, and histological grade. Correct tumor staging is important to decide the the treatment strategy.
