    Notes: Abstract The most common causes of posterior and posterolateral knee pain (besides referred pain) are knee joint effusions, tendinitis of the hamstring tendons, Baker cyst (semimembranous cyst), bursitis, meniscal pathologies such as tears and ganglions and lesions of the anterior cruciate ligament. Less common causes include popliteus and gastrocnemius tendinitis, arthrofibrosis after trauma. posterior cruciate ligament sprains. deep venous thrombosis and/or irritations of the common peroneal nerve. We present one patient with posterolateral knee pain after a minor contusion. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a degenerated posterfor horn of the lateral meniscus and a somewhat unclear polypoid structure in the intercondylar region. As the posterior component of the pain persisted even after an arthroscopic partial meniscectomy, an operative revision was performed. A small ganglion of the sheath of the popliteus tendon was found and excised. The patient was immediately relieved of his pain after this procedure. To our knowledge this is the first report concerning a ganglion of the sheath of the popliteus tendon causing posterior knee pain. A similar pathology of the popliteus tendon has been described earlier but at a different localisation (in the hiatus), simulating a parameniscal cyst.

    Notes: A 42-year-old male patient presented with a history of persistent pain in the right femur without trauma of 2 months, duration and an episode of bloody stools 3 months earlier with no clinical findings upon examination. X-rays and CT scan revealed a circumscribed lesion with sclerosis and periostal reaction in the right proximal femur. A three-phase bone scan showed a massive hot spot in this area. Primarily differential diagnoses included a Brodie's abscess and/or a tumor. An excisonal biopsy of the area was performed and revealed the coexistence of a bone infarction and the metastasis of an adenocarcinoma of unknown origin. The lesion in the bone was resected, filled with autogenous cancellous bone and stabilized with a plate. Further intensive screening with CT of the abdomen, gastroscopy and colonoscopy led to the primary tumor, an adenocarcinoma at the rectosigmoidal junction. No other metastases were detected. This patient presented with severe pain an radiologically divergent findings: a presumably benign process on radiography, but a massive hot spot on scintigraphy. Further procedures such as a CT scan and/or MRI had to be undertaken. If the analysis includes the differential diagnosis of a malignant process, a biopsy must be obtained, and if this reveals a metastasis, the primary tumor must be sought.

    Notes: Abstract  Purpose. To assess the MR arthrographic findings of bicipital tenosynovitis in correlation with arthroscopy. Design and patients. The shoulder MR arthrographies of 500 consecutive patients were retrospectively analyzed for signs of bicipital tenosynovitis and associated pathologies. Forty patients (8%) had MR evidence of bicipital tenosynovitis, but only 17 (3%) with arthroscopic confirmation were included in the study. The MR findings in these patients were compared with those of 10 patients with rotator cuff lesions but arthroscopically normal long biceps tendons. MR arthrography was performed with 10–15 ml of a 250 mmol/l gadoterate meglumine (Gd-DOTA) solution injected under fluoroscopic guidance, and transaxial, oblique coronal and sagittal MR sequences were obtained. Results. All 17 patients showed one or more abnormal findings: signal increase in the tendon with or without fusiform distension was seen in 12, surface irregularities in six, adhesions in 11 and noncommunicating effusions of the tendon sheath in six. Associated abnormalities of the rotator cuff were present in 16 while the seventeenth patient had glenohumeral synovitis without rotator cuff pathology. MR arthrograms correlated with arthroscopic findings in the joint but comparison was not possible in the intertubercular groove portion of the biceps tendon. None of the 10 patients with an arthroscopically normal biceps tendon showed any of the MR findings of bicipital tenosynovitis. Conclusion. Bicipital tenosynovitis is detectable by MR arthrography. In most cases it is an associated finding of rotator cuff abnormalities and likely to have a similar etiology. When lesions of the anterior rotator cuff are recognized, the biceps tendon should be scrutinized for inflammatory changes.
