Stump Entrapment of the Torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

We present a case of anterior cruciate ligament stump entrapment in a 24-year-old gentleman who traumatically injured his knee. The anterior stump became entrapped in the intercondylar notch and after a process of inflammation and fibrosis, produced a mass similar to the more familiar cyclops lesion that may complicate anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Patient Radiation Dose Reduction during Transarterial Chemoembolization Using a Novel X-Ray Imaging Platform.

Purpose: To evaluate radiation dose reduction in patients undergoing transarterial chemoembolization with the use of a new image acquisition and processing platform.

Materials And Methods: Radiation-dose data were obtained from 176 consecutive chemoembolization procedures in 135 patients performed in a single angiography suite. From January 2013 through October 2013, 85 procedures were performed by using our institution's standard fluoroscopic settings.

The inferior emissary vein: a reliable landmark for right adrenal vein sampling.

Background: Right adrenal vein (RAV) catheterization can be a very challenging step in adrenal venous sampling (AVS). Visualization of the inferior emissary vein (IEV) may be an indication of successful RAV catheterization.

Purpose: To compare the rate of successful RAV sampling in the presence of the IEV.

30-year-old HIV-positive female with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage.

We present a case of Strongyloides stercoralis hyperinfection in a 30-year-old HIV positive female who presents with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. We discuss the relevant differential diagnoses and characteristic imaging findings.

Ganglion Cyst of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

We present the case of a 55-year-old woman with a presumed ganglion cyst associated with the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), demonstrated by MRI. The ACL is an uncommon location for ganglion cysts to occur.

Solitary fibrous tumor of pleura: a case report and review of clinical, radiographic and histologic findings.

We present a case of solitary fibrous tumor of pleura (SFTP) in a 63-year-old male. Clinical manifestations of this entity, including paraneoplastic syndromes, are discussed, albeit absent in our presented case. Furthermore radiographic findings and pathologic correlations are provided.

Spondylo-mega-epiphyseal dysplasia with prominent upper limb mesomelia, punctate calcifications, and deafness.

We report on a previously undescribed form of skeletal dysplasia with rhizomelic, acromelic, and prominent mesomelic shortening, distal ulnar epiphyseal and pubic punctate calcifications (stippling), mega-epiphyses, platyspondyly, anterior beaking of the vertebrae, and sensorineural hearing loss. We compare this case to the other reported forms of skeletal dysplasias, particularly the mesomelic, acromesomelic, and mega-epiphyseal disorders.
