Small Bowel Lipomatosis: An Unusual Radiological Finding in Patients With Renal Cell Cancer on Pazopanib.

Background/aim: Treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC) comprises single agent or combinations of immune checkpoint inhibitors and/or anti-angiogenic agents. Pazopanib is a multitargeted anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved as treatment for aRCC. We noted that a number of patients receiving pazopanib developed a radiological finding of small bowel lipomatosis.

FDG injection site extravasation: potential pitfall of misinterpretation and missing metastases.

18F-FDG PET/CT plays an important role in the management of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC). The treatment options for NSCLC depend upon the initial staging of the disease. The authors report a case with a potential pitfall of overlooking a site of FDG uptake as radiopharmaceutical extravasation at an injection site.

Does running cause metatarsophalangeal joint effusions? A comparison of synovial fluid volumes on MRI in athletes before and after running.

Objective: The metatarsophalangeal joints (MTPJ) are the only joints that bear weight directly through synovium. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is an association between synovial stresses during running and increases in volume of joint fluid.

Materials And Methods: This was a prospective case controlled study (nine healthy athlete volunteers acting as own controls).
