    Notes: Abstract To assess the rate of bone loss in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, we prospectively studied 35 patients (17 women) aged 36±13 (range 17–60) years, 14 of whom had Crohn's disease and 21 with ulcerative colitis (including 12 with ileoanal anastomosis). Bone mineral density was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at the lumbar spine and femoral neck. The follow-up was 19±8 months. During this period, 14 patients received oral steroids. Lumbar bone density changes expressed as a percentage per year were −3.1±4.9%, −6.4±7.5% and +2.0±4.0% in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis without and with ileoanal anastomosis respectively (p=0.007). The same pattern was observed at the femoral neck. Mean annual lumbar bone density changes were −6.2±7.0% and +0.9±3.9% in patients with and without steroids during follow-up (p=0.002). We conclude that patients with inflammatory bowel disease are at risk of lumbar and femoral bone loss. However, bone loss is not observed in patients with ileoanal anastomosis.

    Notes: Abstract. Peliosis hepatis is an uncommon liver condition characterized by blood-filled cavities. We report the CT, angiographic and MR features of a case of peliosis hepatis with no obvious etiology and spontaneously regressing hemorrhagic necrosis. Helical CT showed multiple peripheral low-density regions with foci of spontaneous high density suggesting the presence of blood component. On MR imaging, the multiple peripheral lesions were hypointense on T1-weighted and hyperdense on T2-weighted images, with bright foci on all sequences suggesting subacute blood. Angiography showed no evidence of tumor or vascular malformation; multiple nodular vascular lesions filling in the parenchymal phase and persisting in the venous phase suggested blood-filled cavities. Pathological examination showed blood-filled spaces with no endothelial lining, characteristic of the parenchymal type of peliosis. Knowledge of the imaging features of hemorrhagic necrosis due to peliosis hepatis is important since it can be responsive to antibiotic therapy. Furthermore, differentiating hemorrhagic necrosis from hepatic abscess avoids dangerous and sometimes fatal percutaneous drainage.
