Article Synopsis
- - Peripheral nerve sheath tumors are mostly non-cancerous tumors that originate from nerve cells outside the brain and spinal cord, mainly categorized as schwannomas and neurofibromas.
- - These tumors can occur on their own but are often linked to genetic conditions like neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2 or schwannomatosis, and they can sometimes develop in areas that have been treated with radiation.
- - The case presented involves a 49-year-old man with a history of testicular cancer who previously received radiation, now showing two benign schwannomas located in his pelvic wall and psoas muscle.
Background: While studies have described Kaplan fiber (KF) injury in up to 60% of adults with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, the incidence of KF injury in the pediatric and adolescent population remains unknown.
Purpose: To (1) determine the reliability of using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify KF injury in the pediatric and adolescent population and (2) define the incidence of KF injury in these patients with acute ACL injuries.
Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 3.
Objective: Determine computed tomography-guided percutaneous spine biopsy specimen adequacy, pathology-imaging concordance, and negative predictive value with battery-powered drill vs manual approach.
Materials And Methods: One-hundred-fourteen consecutive computed tomography-guided percutaneous spine biopsies in 109 patients (age: 61.1 ± 15.
