Case Report:
A Rare Cause of Acute Abdomen: Jejunal Diverticulosis with Perforation
Ibrahim Aydin, Ahmet Pergel, Ahmet Fikret Yucel, Dursun Ali Sahin
J Clin Imaging Sci
2013, 3:31 (29 July 2013)

Jejunal diverticulosis is generally asymptomatic and is associated with high morbidity and mortality secondary to complications, especially in elderly patients. We present a case report of a 74-year-old female patient with jejunal diverticulosis and perforation due to diverticulitis.

Case Report:
A Rare Cause of Crazy-Paving and Mediastinal Lymphadenopathy: Congestive Heart Failure
Aysegul Senturk, Aysegul Karalezli, Ayse Nur Soyturk, H Canan Hasanoglu
J Clin Imaging Sci
2013, 3:30 (29 July 2013)

Crazy-paving sign is a pattern seen on multislice computed tomography images of the lungs. It is characterized by a reticular pattern superimposed on ground-glass opacity. It was first described in the late 1980s in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, but has now been described in some other diseases of the lung. Enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes can be seen in infectious and specific inflammatory diseases and malignancies. The present report describes a case of a 44-year-old man in whom congestive heart failure presented with a crazy-paving appearance and enlarged lymph nodes of the lungs on the chest computed tomography scan.

Case Report:
Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt for Maintenance of Portal Venous Patency in Liver Transplant Candidates
Ron Charles Gaba, Ahmad Parvinian
J Clin Imaging Sci
2013, 3:29 (29 July 2013)
DOI

PMID

Maintenance of portal venous patency is vital to liver transplant candidates, as the presence of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) adversely impacts clinical outcomes by increasing surgical complexity and decreasing postoperative survival. By enhancing portal venous blood flow, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) creation may enable clearance of PVT and preservation of portal venous patency in cirrhotic patients. Herein, we describe four cases in which TIPS produced and sustained an open portal venous system in liver transplant candidates with partial PVT. All patients demonstrated rapid and effective flow-enabled clearance of clot and intermediate to long-term preservation of portal venous flow. On this basis, we propose that maintenance of portal venous patency in liver transplant candidates with partial PVT represents a developing indication for TIPS.

Original Article:
Correlation of Ultrasonographic Parameters with Serum Creatinine in Chronic Kidney Disease
Jagdeesh K Siddappa, Saurabh Singla, Mohammed Al Ameen, SC Rakshith, Naveen Kumar
J Clin Imaging Sci
2013, 3:28 (9 July 2013)
DOI
:10.4103/2156-7514.114809
PMID
:24083065
Objective:
The purpose of our study is to correlate renal echogenicity with serum creatinine in order to determine the significance of renal echogenicity when it comes to identifying the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and for the sonographic grading of CKD.
Materials and Methods:
Sixty patients above 30 years of age who had been diagnosed with CKD according to the guidelines of the National Kidney Foundation were included in the study. Patients on kidney replacement therapy or with fatty liver findings on ultrasonography were excluded. Ultrasounds of kidneys were performed by two radiologists who were blind to the patients' serum creatinine levels. Renal cortical echogenicity was compared with serum creatinine. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA followed by Scheffe's test. The relationship between serum creatinine and sonographic features was assessed by correlation coefficient analysis. A
P
value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results:
Mean serum creatinine was 2.80 mg/dl for Grade 1 (range: 0.9-9.2 mg/dl), 3.69 mg/dl for Grade 2 (range: 1.2-10.3 mg/dl), 3.86 mg/dl for Grade 3 (range: 1.1-6.5 mg/dl), and 7.90 mg/dl for Grade 4 (range: 3.1-11.4 mg/dl). The grades being determined by cortical echogenicity on imaging A statistically significant, positive correlation was observed between serum creatinine and grading based on cortical echogenicity (
P
= 0.004).
Conclusion:
Renal echogenicity and its grading correlates better with serum creatinine in CKD than other sonographic parameters such as longitudinal size, parenchymal thickness, and cortical thickness. Hence, renal echogenicity is a better parameter than serum creatinine for estimating renal function in CKD, and has the added advantage of irreversibility.

Association of Progesterone, Pessary, and Antibiotic for Treating Pregnant Woman with Short Cervix Syndrome: Importance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Assessment of Pessary Position
Edward Araujo Júnior, Eduardo Félix Martins Santana, Luciano Marcondes Machado Nardozza, Antonio Fernandes Moron
J Clin Imaging Sci

Preterm delivery (PD) is the most important cause of neonatal mortality, particularly before the 32
nd
week of pregnancy. A short cervix is the most important quantitative marker for predicting PD. However, there are other qualitative markers such as cervical gland area, cervical funneling, and sludge. We present the case of a pregnant woman who was diagnosed with a short cervix at 14-weeks and demonstrate the use of triple therapy, which helped to achieve a good perinatal result. A 37-year-old pregnant woman (G3P0) was referred to our service at 14-weeks of pregnancy presenting with a short cervix (20 mm) and a positive sludge sign. She was hospitalized; a pessary was inserted, and started on antibiotic therapy (clindamycin and cefalotin for 10 days). At 20 weeks, she was again admitted to the hospital, and this time presented with a further shortened cervix (9 mm), cervical funneling, and a positive sludge sign, with the pessary in position. The following procedures were performed: Amniocentesis on the sludge (negative bacterioscopy), another cycle of antibiotics, administration of oral progesterone, and imaging to determine retention of pessary position. The patient was placed in the Trendelenburg position and remained hospitalized for 82 days. At 32 + 1 weeks, the fetus presented distress (tachycardia). C-section was performed, producing a live female newborn weighing 2,180 g and presenting Apgar indexes of 8/8. This case report demonstrates the importance of magnetic resonance imaging to assess the position of pessary in a pregnant woman with short cervix.
