    Notes: Abstract We report a patient with metastatic thyroid carcinoma invading the esophagus in whom barium and MR examinations revealed an expansile intraluminal mass indistinguishable from that of a primary esophageal malignancy. Metastatic thyroid carcinoma should therefore be included in the differential diagnosis of an expansile esophageal mass. As in our patient, MR imaging may be useful for showing that the mass originates in the thyroid gland.

    Notes: Abstract We report a patient in whom barium studies and computed tomography revealed an intramural mass in the jejunum that consisted pathologically of ectopic splenic tissue. Because the patient had a prior splenectomy, the lesion probably represented splenosis rather than an accessory spleen. When intramural lesions are detected on barium studies in patients who have had prior abdominal trauma or splenectomy,99mTc-tagged, heated-red blood cell scintigraphy may be performed to confirm the diagnosis, thereby eliminating the need for surgery in these patients.

    Notes: Abstract We have occasionally encountered patients on nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in whom double contrast barium studies revealed persistent flattening and stiffening of the distal greater curvature of the stomach. We therefore performed a study to determine the frequency of this finding in patients with NSAID-related gastropathy. Twenty-one cases of erosive gastritis, gastric ulcers, and/or gastric scarring associated with a known history of NSAID use were reviewed by two radiologists who made a joint decision regarding the presence or absence of greater curvature antral flattening. This finding was seen radiographically in five of the 21 patients (24%). Four of the five patients with antral flattening had associated erosions or ulcers in the gastric antrum. The remaining patient had antral flattening as an isolated finding. Our experience suggests that flattening of the greater curvature of the distal antrum, particularly if associated with erosive gastritis or gastric ulcers, is a useful radiologic sign of NSAID-related gastropathy.
