Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the spatial relationships between key venous structures and the surface markers relevant to hemodialysis puncture catheterization, utilizing data from seventy cadavers.
- Quantitative analysis reveals linear correlations between the angles of the vertical axis with the superior vena cava and venous structures, and various anatomical distances, aiding in understanding vascular puncture techniques.
- Findings offer important insights that could improve intubation guidance by detailing how several anatomical parameters influence positioning for successful catheterization.
Imaging-guided subacromial therapeutic injections: prospective study comparing abnormalities on conventional radiography with patient outcomes.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare abnormalities detected on conventional shoulder radiography with improvement in pain and shoulder function after subacromial injections.
Subjects And Methods: We conducted a prospective outcomes study including 98 consecutive patients after fluoroscopy-guided subacromial injections who returned outcome questionnaires and who underwent routine shoulder radiography. Numeric pain rating scale (NRS) data were collected before and, along with patient global impression of change (PGIC) data, at 1 week and 1 month after injection.
Rotator cuff impingement due to enchondroma of the acromion.
Acta Orthop Belg
December 2005
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Universidad Autónoma, Madrid, Spain.
We report the case of a patient with a long standing clinical history of subacromial impingement, in which plain radiographs and CT-scan revealed a well-circumscribed lucent lesion expanding the undersurface of the acromion. MRI showed the subacromial fat to be completely obliterated and the infraspinatus tendon deformed due to compression by a mass localised at the acromion. The acromial lesion was curetted, and histopathologic analysis was consistent with the diagnosis of enchondroma.

Unlabelled: Infraclavicular plexus block has recently become a technique of increasing interest. However, no approach has provided easily identifiable landmarks, good conditions for catheter placement, and lack of complications (mainly pneumothorax). We describe a modified approach of the Raj technique based on the identification of the anterior acromial process, jugular notch, and emergence of the axillary artery within the axillary fossa, with the arm abducted to 90 degrees and elevated by approximately 30 degrees.
