Review Article:
The Dens: Normal Development, Developmental Variants and Anomalies, and Traumatic Injuries
William T O'Brien, Peter Shen, Paul Lee
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:38 (30 June 2015)
DOI

PMID

Accurate interpretation of cervical spine imagining can be challenging, especially in children and the elderly. The biomechanics of the developing pediatric spine and age-related degenerative changes predispose these patient populations to injuries centered at the craniocervical junction. In addition, congenital anomalies are common in this region, especially those associated with the axis/dens, due to its complexity in terms of development compared to other vertebral levels. The most common congenital variations of the dens include the os odontoideum and a persistent ossiculum terminale. At times, it is necessary to distinguish normal development, developmental variants, and developmental anomalies from traumatic injuries in the setting of acute traumatic injury. Key imaging features are useful to differentiate between traumatic fractures and normal or variant anatomy acutely; however, the radiologist must first have a basic understanding of the spectrum of normal developmental anatomy and its anatomic variations in order to make an accurate assessment. This review article attempts to provide the basic framework required for accurate interpretation of cervical spine imaging with a focus on the dens, specifically covering the normal development and ossification of the dens, common congenital variants and their various imaging appearances, fracture classifications, imaging appearances, and treatment options.

Pictorial Essay:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathies: A Pictorial Essay
Cristina I Olivas-Chacon, Carola Mullins, Kevan Stewart, Nassim Akle, Jesus E Calleros, Luis R Ramos-Duran
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:37 (30 June 2015)
DOI

Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies are defined as either primary or secondary diseases of the myocardium resulting in cardiac dysfunction. While primary cardiomyopathies are confined to the heart and can be genetic or acquired, secondary cardiomyopathies show involvement of the heart as a manifestation of an underlying systemic disease including metabolic, inflammatory, granulomatous, infectious, or autoimmune entities. Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies are currently classified as hypertrophic, dilated, restrictive, or unclassifiable, including left ventricular non-compaction. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI) not only has the capability to assess cardiac morphology and function, but also the ability to detect edema, hemorrhage, fibrosis, and intramyocardial deposits, providing a valuable imaging tool in the characterization of non-ischemic cardiomyopathies. This pictorial essay shows some of the most important non-ischemic cardiomyopathies with an emphasis on magnetic resonance imaging features.

Case Report:
Testicular Ischemia Due to a Band Around the Spermatic Cord
Suheil Artul, Basel Fahoum, William Nseir, George Habib
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:36 (29 June 2015)
DOI
:10.4103/2156-7514.157856
PMID
:26180659
We present a case of an 18-year-old boy who was admitted to our hospital with a 2-day history of pain in the right scrotum. Ultrasound examination showed signs of ischemia, with dampened testicular arterial flow and bell-clapper deformity. Surgery revealed a constricting fibrous band around the distal spermatic cord resembling the bell-clapper deformity.

Case Report:
Carcinoma en Cuirasse from Recurrent Breast Cancer seen on FDG-PET/CT
Aung Zaw Win, Carina Mari Aparici
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:35 (29 June 2015)
DOI
:10.4103/2156-7514.159456
PMID
:26180658
Our patient was a 36-year-old female diagnosed with Grade II ER+/PR−/Her-2 − ductal carcinoma
in situ
(DCIS) in the left breast. She underwent left lumpectomy and received treatment with tamoxifen and radiotherapy. Three years later, she presented with multiple diffused skin nodules on the chest and upper left arm. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) exam showed widespread metastasis in the chest, upper left arm, left axillary lymph nodes, and left suprascapular muscle. FDG-PET/CT imaging of breast carcinoma en cuirasse is very rare. FDG-PET/CT is useful in detecting recurrent breast cancer.

Case Report:
Infantile Fibromatosis: A Rare Cause of Anterior Mediastinal Mass in a Child
Venkatraman Bhat, Praveen Raju, Sanjay Rao, Srinivas Ramaiah
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:34 (29 June 2015)
DOI

PMID
:26180657
Fibromatosis also known as desmoid tumor is an uncommon cause of a mediastinal mass in patients of all ages. Imaging appearance of fibromatosis is generally nonspecific and demands special attention to subtle details to be correctly identified as a possibility. Management of the patient is often complicated by failure to obtain precise pre-operative diagnosis. Location of a mass in the anterior mediastinum with encasement of vital structures is not favourable for complete cure. Although histologically benign, biological behaviour of the lesion varies between benign fibrous proliferation and low-grade fibrosarcoma. We present imaging appearances, surgical management dilemma, and the histopathological details of a case of fibromatosis in the anterior mediastinum in a child.

Case Report:
Obstructive Uropathy Secondary to Uretero-inguinal Hernia
Lih En Hong, Chrismin Tan, Jordan Li
J Clin Imaging Sci
2015, 5:33 (29 June 2015)
DOI
:10.4103/2156-7514.159448
PMID
:26180656
Uretero-inguinal hernia in patients with native kidneys is rare. We report a case of an 84-year-old man who was diagnosed with obstructive uropathy secondary to uretero-inguinal hernia, with no past history of herniorrhaphy or congenital genitourinary malformation. Uretero-inguinal hernias are predominantly indirect inguinal hernias and may be paraperitoneal or extraperitoneal. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive diagnostic tool for uretero-inguinal hernia. Herniorrhaphy is indicated in all cases of uretero-inguinal hernia to prevent obstructive uropathy.
