Osteomyelitis is an inflammation involving bone and/or bone marrow most often the result of bacterial infection of the bone. In children, osteomyelitis most often has an acute presentation and is caused by hematogenous spread. When osteomyelitis is seen in the extremities, conventional radiography is the first-line imaging modality preformed for diagnosis with magnetic resonance imaging employed for further delineation or as a problem-solving tool. A healthy 6-year-old female presented with a history of nonspecific left leg pain for 3-5 weeks which gradually progressed to focal left ankle pain and swelling. Further workup revealed multifocal subacute osteomyelitis with Brodie's abscesses seen on imaging in the absence of a septic joint. This was an uncommon presentation for the following reasons Patients with multifocal osteomyelitis usually present in the acute setting, as opposed to the subacute setting. When osteomyelitis is multifocal or Brodie's abscesses are present adjacent to the joint capsule, concomitant septic joint is commonly seen.We report the case of a 71-year-old female presenting with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the left lower extremity secondary to a huge uterine myoma, who was successfully managed by hysterectomy and staged endovascular treatment. Her DVT was caused by left common iliac vein compression as a result of both the huge uterine myoma and preexisting May-Thuner syndrome. Although reported to put patients at high risk for DVT, coexisting large uterine myomas and May-Thurner syndrome are considered extremely rare.Adult-onset diffuse leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP) is a rare progressive degenerative white matter disease caused by mutations in the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor gene. Patients commonly present in the 4th or 5th decade with variable clinical presentations including behavioral changes, dementia, parkinsonism, and motor dysfunctions, eventually leading to death within a few years. Although the disease is typically hereditary, sporadic cases are known to occur. The classic MRI features of ALSP include T2 hyperintensities in the frontal and parietal white matter, scattered foci of restricted diffusion in the white matter, age-advanced cerebral involutional changes, thinning and signal changes in the corpus callosum, absence of infratentorial involvement and lack of enhancement. CT commonly shows tiny calcifications in the corpus callosum and deep white matter. We report a unique case of sporadic ALSP that initially presented as young stroke with acute onset of left-sided hemiparesis and no preceding history of cognitive decline.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/propionyl-l-carnitine-hydrochloride.html  However, subsequent cognitive and behavioral changes lead to the consideration of an alternative diagnosis. Stroke-like symptoms is a very rare primary presentation of this disease entity. We have highlighted the classic MRI and CT features that helped to guide its diagnosis in our patient and prompted early corroborative genetic testing.Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the development of arteriovenous malformations. The arteriovenous shunts may result in high output heart failure, which predisposes to atrial dilatation and atrial fibrillation. Due to recurrent bleeding from epistaxis or the gastrointestinal tract, patients with HHT and atrial fibrillation are at high risk of bleeding if anticoagulated for stroke prevention. In this report, we present a case of a 74-year-old woman with a history of HHT and atrial fibrillation who developed a large left atrial thrombus that initially was thought to represent an atrial myxoma. The diagnosis was confirmed with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and the patient underwent surgical resection of the thrombus. This case demonstrates the role of different imaging modalities in the assessment of left atrial masses and presents an opportunity to review the data on safety of anticoagulation in patients with HHT.Gall bladder (GB) perforation can be misdiagnosed as any other more common cause of acute abdomen. We present a case of a 72-year-female who had presented to the emergency department with an acute abdomen. The clinical presentation and the biochemical markers had pointed towards acute pancreatitis. However, the ultrasonographic examination of the abdomen and the pelvis suggested GB perforation which was confirmed by the multislice computerized tomography scan. Following this the patient underwent open cholecystectomy and was successfully managed. The invaluable contributions from the radiological modalities led to the successful management of the patient.Traumatic hemorrhage of the bilateral basal ganglia is an extremely rare event in severe closed head injuries. Its mechanism remains poorly understood. This report describes the rare case of bilateral traumatic basal ganglia hemorrhage in a 33-year-old man, who had been a victim of violent head trauma. Magnetic resonance imaging and serial computed tomography revealed small hemorrhages in the bilateral basal ganglia as well as nonhemorrhagic diffuse axonal injury in the bilateral internal capsules. The patient was discharged without neurologic deficits following conservative management. Overall, this case report highlights that shearing injury is a potential cause of bilateral traumatic basal ganglia hemorrhage.The occurrence of peritoneal loose bodies has been known for hundreds of years. Although rarely, they attain a diameter of more than 5 cm and are then named "giant" peritoneal bodies (gPLBs). Even these huge peritoneal bodies are generally symptom free, but may be linked with chronic symptoms like abdominal pain or discomfort. Many a times, these gPLBs are misinterpreted as intraabdominal tumors or foreign bodies and unnecessary surgical interventions are carried out. We report a rare case of a 75-year-old male, who presented to our tertiary care center emergency department with history of chronic intermittent abdominal discomfort with acute diarrhea and peri-anal pain. Contrast enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis revealed round to oval mass in the pelvis measuring 6.2 cm × 5.8 cm. On laparoscopy, a hard, free floating object with the appearance of a boiled egg could just be scooped out from the pelvis. The postoperative pathological examination revealed laminated strands of hyalinized fibro collagenous tissue with central fat necrosis confirming the diagnosis of gPLB.
