defined hilar heterogeneous mass.suggestive of hilar
cholangiocarcinoma (klatskin tumor) with possible gall bladder infiltration
in 83 old female.ERCP with adjuvant biliary stenting is recommended.

dorsal cord. The displays low SI on T1 WIs and high SI on T2 WIs. They
show mild heterogeneous contrast enhancement.

appearance). They shows marked contrast enhancement along the spinal
cord with characteristic sugar coating appearance.

Opinion:
Multiple drop intra medullary metastases.
Diffuse leptomeningeal tumor spread CSF disseminated metastases from
the previous operated Medulloblastoma (posterior fossa PNET).

X-ray Appearance
1. Typically, diffuse ground-glass or finely granular
appearance
2. Bilateral and symmetrical distribution
3. Air bronchograms are common
-Especially extending peripherally
4. Hypoaeration in non-ventilated lungs
-Hyperinflation excludes HMD
5. Granularity is the interplay of
1. Air-distended bronchioles & ducts
2. Background of atelectasis of alveoli
6. May change from film-to-film if there is
1. Expiration (air disappears)
2. Better aeration (small bubble formation

THE SAME CASE IN CONTINUATION WITH


MARKS: WE GAVE TUBERCULOUS LESION AS
DIAGNOSIS...PATIENT WAS ON AKT AND AFTER
SEEING ALL THESE RESPONSE ON FACEBOOK I
HAVE CALLED THE PATIENT AGAIN AND SHE
HAS IMPROVED..SO WILL DO HER FOLLOW UP
MRI AGAIN (FREE OF COURSE.. FOR THE
FACEBOOK) AND WILL UPLOAD THAT NEW
IMAGES ALSO AGAIN.

On flair coronal you can see there is two


components of the lesion, one is hyperintense
and other is hypointense but clearly seprate
from the compressed temporal horn of
ventriclebut that hypointense nealy fluid
density part of the lesion is getting merge with
the temporal horn to give a false impression
of enlarged temporal horn on T2which is not
enlarged

CT: Axial and coronal images (Fig. 1-2) show a


calcified mass in the glenoid fossa, bulging into
the epitympanum and abutting to middle cranial
fossa floor.
MRI: The mass has low signal intensity in T2w
sequences (Fig. 3-5) and intermediate signal
intensity in T1w sequences (Fig. 6).
Inhomogeneous enhancement is seen in post
contrast T1w images (Fig. 7-9). Not only the mass,
but surrounding soft tissues and dural lining show
enhancement. No bony changes, neither
enhancement of the condyle is detected

CHONDROCALCINOSES

A relatively flat extra-axial mass lesion is seen


along the left temporo-occipital cerebral
convexity, which is indenting and mildly
compressing the adjacent cerebral
parenchyma. Mild perilesional oedema is also
noted.

Focal calvarial hypertrophy is well visualized


on the left side. Note the difference in the
calvarial thickness on either side of midline.

Extensive soft tissue calcification is seen


around the pelvis and proximal femora.
Bilateral avascular necrosis that has resulted
from steroid therapy has warranted total hip
replacement.

Diffuse, multiple or generalised soft tissue


calcification may be seen in:hyperparathyroidism and renal osteodystrophy
other disorders of calcium and phosphate
metabolism eg. hypoparathyroidism, chronic
haemodialysis, milk-alkali syndrome, etc.
scleroderma dermatomyositis polyarteritis
nodosa Raynauds syndrome rheumatoid arthritis
systemic lupus erythematosus sarcoidosis gout
ochronosis Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Werners
syndrome (adult progeria)

Intravenous contrast injection was performed


in the upper limb). The urinary bladder
contained an air fluid level and extensive
intramural air suggesting a diagnosis of
Emphysematous Cystitis (Fig 1-3). The
patient was treated with antibiotics and Creactive protein improved from 67 mg/L to
normal levels. Escherichia coli was isolated in
urine samples. The patient was discharged
shortly afterwards.

1) Fracture of the left femoral neck.


2) Left hemipelvis is sclerotic with a coarse
pattern, cortical thickening and expansion.
This is pagets disease.
3) Calcification in fibroids

A large well defined enhanced soft tissue density mass seen


centered on the right maxilla at both buccal and lingual
sides. It is associated with marked bone destruction of the
related maxilla. Medially, it is seen extending to the nasal
cavity with subsequent destruction of the pyriform
aperature. Laterally, it invades the buccal space. Superiorly,
it partially fills the right maxillary antrum and reach the
floor of the orbit with subsequent bony wall destruction.
Inferiorly, it is seen extending to the lingual space and
invades the hard palate. Anteriorly, it is seen reaching the
skin and subcutaneous tissue. Posteriorly, it invades the
posterior maxillary wall and retro maxillary fat plane (infra
temporal fossa), but intact pterygoid plates..
.


No evidence of new sclerotic bone formation.
No detected vascular invasion.
No detected separable enlarged lymph nodes.
No air density could be seen.
Patent left osteomeatal units and
sphenoethmoidal recesses.
Clear nasopharynx and oropharynx

OPINION:
CT findings are consistent with large soft tissue
mass centered on right maxilla with marked bone
destruction and above described
extensionsSuggestive of malignant process
rather than infectious process corresponding the
given history..Mostly squamous cell
carcinoma/adenocarcinoma.Biopsy is highly
recommended
