Retroperitoneal hematoma is rare and benefits from a systematic approach to prevent morbidity and mortality. Management of such bleeds is based upon patient stability, the cause (spontaneous or posttraumatic), and source (arterial or venous). Herein, the authors describe a diagnostic and management algorithm for retroperitoneal hemorrhage with an example of a rare lumbar venous bleed under the complicated clinical setting of deep venous thrombosis.

Stenting versus medical treatment for idiopathic intracranial hypertension based on a propensity score matching method.
Quant Imaging Med Surg
January 2025
Department of Interventional Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Background: In recent years, stenting has been widely used to treat patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and venous sinus stenosis (VSS); however, research comparing stenting and medical treatment (MT) remains scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of stenting and MT in treating patients with IIH and VSS.
Methods: In this single-center, retrospective, cohort study, the clinical data of patients diagnosed with IIH and VSS at The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to June 2023 were collected for analysis.
Visualization of Right Adrenal Vein in Non-Contrast-Enhanced MDCT and Its Guiding Role for Right Adrenal Venous Sampling.
J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)

Department of Cardiology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang, Donghu District, P.R. China.
This study aimed to evaluate the visualization of right adrenal vein (RAV) in non-contrast-enhanced multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) and its guiding role for right adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA). A total of 237 patients diagnosed with PA who underwent successful AVS procedures from January 2020 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The non-contrast-enhanced MDCT image features of RAV included the degree of visualization and the position of RAV orifice.

Objectives: Contrast agents are frequently administered in computed tomography (CT) scans used for opportunistic screening of osteoporosis. The objective of this study is to compare the impact of contrast-related bone mineral density (BMD) increase between phantom-based and internal CT calibration techniques.
Materials And Methods: Phantom-based and internal CT calibration techniques were used to determine trabecular BMD in 93 existing clinical CT scans of the lumbar spine of 34 subjects, scanned before and after administration of contrast agents.

Am J Ophthalmol Case Rep
December 2024
California Pacific Medical Center Department of Ophthalmology, 711 Van Ness, Suite 250, San Francisco, CA, 94102, USA.
Purpose: To report the case of a woman in her fifties whose presenting symptom of idiopathic intracranial hypertension was engorgement of the eyelid veins.
Observations: Bilateral engorged palpebral veins were visible through the skin. Dilated fundus examination revealed bilateral optic disc edema.
The Relationship Between ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 Enzyme Levels in Patients With Degenerative Disc Disease: A Prospective Biochemical Study.
JOR Spine
March 2025
Department of Neurosurgery Celal Bayar University, Faculty of Medicine Manisa Turkey.
Study Design: Prospective biochemical study of comparison of A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs-4 (ADAMTS-4) and A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS5) levels in preoperative and postoperative venous blood, as well as in disc tissue obtained during surgery, in patients undergoing surgery for intervertebral disc disease, with enzyme levels in venous blood from a control group.
Objective: To compare the levels of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 between patients with degenerative intervertebral discs and a healthy control group, aiming to identify biomarkers associated with intervertebral disc degeneration.
Literature: Although numerous studies have investigated the relationship between ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 enzymes and degeneration in experimental rat models and human tissues, no study has correlated their serum levels with intervertebral disc degeneration.
