    Notizen: Abstract Objective: To study the accuracy of A-mode ultrasonography (A-MU) in detecting secretion in maxillary and frontal sinuses in critically ill, intubated patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. Design: Open study in mechanically ventilated, comatose patients. Setting: Medical-surgical intensive care unit in the General Hospital of Rovigo. Patients: 50 consecutive, mechanically ventilated, critically ill patients. All patients were in a coma and needed cerebral computed tomography (CT) for a diagnosis. Measurements and results: The A-MU technique gave 100 images of maxillary and frontal sinuses. The images were read blindly and classified into five categories: definitely normal, definitely abnormal, probably normal, questionable, and probably abnormal. CT findings were considered to be the „gold standard”. The specificity of echo images varied from 72 to 98% and the sensitivity from 63 to 86% for maxillary sinuses. For frontal sinuses, the specificity varied from 96 to 99% and the sensitivity from 14 to 57%. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve was found to be 0.89 and 0.76 for maxillary and frontal sinuses, respectively. Conclusions: The A-MU technique is an accurate tool for detecting secretion in the maxillary sinuses in intubated patients. More investigations are necessary in order to evaluate its usefulness in the frontal sinuses.

    Notizen: Abstract. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of stereolithography vs workstation-based three-dimensional (3D) reformations in intra-articular calcaneal fractures. A total of 30 intra-articular calcaneal fractures were examined using standard radiographs, coronal CT scans, and 2D and 3D reformations. The CT data were transferred to an outside institution, and stereolithograms were produced from photopolymer resin employing a laser beam system. 3D reformations and stereolithograms were analyzed in a blinded fashion by two staff radiologists. Receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) curves were obtained for six clinically significant fracture components. Standard radiographs, coronal CT scans, and 2D reformations served as the standard of reference. The area under the ROC curves for 3D reformations and stereolithograms were 1.0 and 0.98 for abnormal tuber angles, 0.91 and 0.91 for anterior and middle talo-calcaneal joint involvement, 0.90 and 0.95 for involvement of the posterior talo-calcaneal joint, 0.65 and 0.78 for the presence of a lateral bulge, 0.80 and 0.81 for the involvement of the calcaneocuboidal joint, and 0.62 and 0.67 for the presence of a “tongue-type” fracture. No statistically significant difference was demonstrated for the two methods (Wilcoxon signed-rank test, p = 0.138). Based on our results stereolithograms did not prove to be statistically superior to workstation-based 3D reformations. Stereolithograms may still be useful for teaching purposes and for surgical planning at a thinking-efficacy level.

    Notizen: Abstract In a previous study, we found that the extent of necrosis was the only radiological feature which correlated significantly with survival in patients with glioblastoma. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the variability and prognostic value of the extent of the necrotic area as seen on contrast-enhanced MRI and CT in a larger series. We studied 72 patients who underwent surgical removal of supratentorial glioblastomas and had CT and/or MRI with contrast medium before surgery; 38, all undergoing the same treatment (surgery plus radiotherapy), were followed clinically. Necrosis within the tumour varied greatly, ranging from none (only 1 case) to involvement of 76 % of the tumour. Survival data in the subgroup suggested that only patients with a small area of necrosis (less than 35 % of the tumour) had a significantly longer survival time. When necrosis involved more than 35 % of the mass, patients had a shorter survival time, without any further correlation with the extent of necrosis.

    Notizen: Abstract Idiopathic pituitary granuloma is a rare disorder similar to lymphocytic adenohypophysitis. Few cases have been reported. We report a new histologically case proven with MRI. The patterns of clinical and radiological presentation and the management of this disorder are discussed. MRI findings suggestive of this condition include an intensely enhancing pituitary mass, associated with dural enhancement. Steroid therapy may be suggested avoiding unnecessary surgery.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Summary Diagnostic imaging after renal transplantation is of high importance in the differential diagnosis of peri-and postoperative complications. Sonography with color duplex imaging is the method of choice in the diagnosis of acute transplant rejection. MRI is an additional method in the diagnosis of transplant dysfunction especially in diagnosis of perirenal fluid collections. MR angiography and MR urography are noninvasive diagnostic modalities with the potential to replace angiography and pyelography. Angiography, complemented by carbon dioxide angiography, still is the gold standard in the diagnosis of transplant artery stenosis.
    Notizen: Zusammenfassung Die bildgebende Diagnostik nach Nierentransplantation hat einen hohen Stellenwert in der Differentialdiagnostik peri- und postoperativer Komplikationen. Die Sonographie mit Doppler- und Farbduplexsonographie ist die Methode der ersten Wahl in der Diagnostik der akuten Transplantatabstoßung. Die MRT kann als zusätzliche Methode in der Diagnostik der akuten Transplantatdysfunktion und insbesondere bei unklarer perirenaler Flüssigkeitsansammlungen nach Transplantation eingesetzt werden. MR-Angiographie und MR-Urographie sind ergänzende nichtinvasive Methoden, welche die Angiographie (DSA) und Pyelographie zunehmend ersetzen können. Die Angiographie, ergänzt durch die CO2-Angiographie, ist weiterhin der Goldstandard in der Diagnostik von Transplantatarterienstenosen.

    Notizen: Abstract A reduction of the subacromial space and an increased subacromial pressure have been considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of rotator cuff lesions. The objective of the current study was to develop a CT based method for measuring the acromiohumeral distance and inferior acromial mineralization. In seven patients with unilateral rupture of the rotator cuff and two with impingement syndrome, transverse CT images were obtained at a section thickness of 1 mm with muscular relaxation in a standardized position. The bones were then reconstructed three-dimensionally, and the minimal vertical distance between the acromion and the humerus was determined in three secondary frontal images on both sides. The distribution of mineralization within the inferior surface of the acromion was assessed using CT osteoabsorptiometry. Although the Constant score was significantly reduced in the diseased shoulders, the width of the subacromial space was not routinely lower than on the contralateral side. In seven cases the maximal inferior acromial mineralization was identical in both shoulders, and in two cases it was lower on the affected side. These preliminary data suggest that with muscular relaxation no narrowing of the subacromial space can be detected in secondary frontal CT images, and that a potential increase of subacromial pressure is not high enough to cause a measurable increase in inferior acromial bone density. The method presented makes it possible to investigate the pathogenesis of the supraspinatus outlet syndrome in vivo with greater precision than has so far been possible with conventional radiography.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Les variations anatomiques sont importantes à connaitre dans le cadre du bilan tomodensitométrique précédant une chirurgie endoscopique des sinus paranasaux. Dans cette étude, nous avons recherché si le cornet nasal supérieur pouvait être pneumatisé comme l'est le cornet nasal moyen, entité anatomique bien connue. Les images de 52 patients ayant eu une tomodensitométrie avant chirurgie endoscopique et montrant des cellules ethmoïdales postérieures normalement pneumatisées et une cavité nasale nonopaque, ont été évaluées rétrospectivement. Les patients, 28 femmes et 24 hommes, étaient âgés de 12 à 68 ans (moyenne : 35 ans). La pneumatisation du cornet nasal supérieur a été classée en deux groupes; minime et prononçée. Cette pneumatisation était patente chez 25 patients (48 %). Treize pneumatisations unilatérales (25 %) et 8 pneumatisations bilatérales (15 %) furent retrouvées dans le groupe présentant une pneumatisation minime alors que 1 pneumatisation unilatérale et 3 bilatérales (8 %) étaient présentes dans le groupe dont la pneumatisation était plus marquée. Les cornets nasaux supérieurs semblaient être aérés par les cellules ethmoïdales postérieures. Les cornets nasaux supérieurs peuvent être pneumatisés, comme le sont les cornets nasaux moyens, avec une fréquence non-exceptionnelle. Cette variation anatomique mérite d'être prise en considération dans le bilan tomodensitométrique précédant toute chirurgie endoscopique des sinus paranasaux.
    Notizen: Summary Anatomic variations are important in preendoscopic CT evaluation of the paranasal sinuses. In this study, we investigated whether the superior turbinate could become pneumatised like the middle turbinate, pneumatisation of which is well-known. Images of 52 patients who underwent CT examination prior to endoscopic sinus surgery and who had normally aerated posterior ethmoidal cells and an unobscured nasal cavity were retrospectively evaluated. The patients were 12–68 years old (median age, 35 years); 28 were women and 24 were men. Pneumatisation of the superior turbinates was graded in two groups as minimal or marked. Pneumatisation was evident in 25 patients (48%). 13 unilateral (25%), 8 bilateral (15%) pneumatisations were detected in the group graded as minimal, whereas 1 unilateral and 3 bilateral pneumatisations were present in the markedly (8%) pneumatised group of patients. Superior turbinates were seemingly aerated through the posterior ethmoid cells. The superior turbinates can be pneumatised as the middle turbinate is a not frequent anatomic variation that should be taken into account in preendoscopic CT evaluation of the paranasal sinuses.

    Notizen: Abstract Hemorrhage into the biliary tract is an uncommon but potentially serious complication of traumatic liver injury. Blood loss may be minimal or massive, and the timing of onset of symptoms relative to the injury is quite variable. Radiologic evaluation, including computed tomography, ultrasound, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and angiography, can be used to make the diagnosis. We report a case of posttraumatic hemorrhage into the biliary tree after a liver laceration.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Une réduction de l'espace sous-acromial et une augmentation de la pression sous-acromiale avait été considérées comme jouant un rôle très important dans la pathogénie des lésions de la coiffe des rotateurs. L'objectif de cette étude est de développer une méthode basée sur la tomodensitométrie, pour mesurer la distance acromio-humérale et la minéralisation de la partie inférieure de l'acromion. Chez 7 patients avec une rupture unilatérale de la coiffe des rotateurs et deux avec un syndrome de conflit, des images acquises en coupes axiales transverses étaient obtenues avec une section d'épaisseur de 1 mm en situation de relaxation musculaire dans une position standard. Les structures osseuses étaient ensuite reconstruites en trois dimensions, la distance minimale verticale entre l'acromion et l'humérus était déterminée sur trois images frontales des deux côtés. La distribution de la minéralisation à l'intérieur de la surface caudale de l'acromion était évaluée en utilisant une méthode d'ostéo-absorptiométrie. Bien que le score de Constant était significantivement réduit chez les épaules malades, l'épaisseur de l'espace sous-acromial n'était pas systématiquement plus bas que du côté controlatéral. Dans 7 cas, les zones de minéralisation maximale de l'acromion étaient identiques dans les deux épaules et dans 2 cas étaient plus basses du côté affecté. Cette étude préliminaire suggère qu'avec la relaxation musculaire, un amincissement de l'espace sous-acromial ne peut pas être détecté sur des images de reconstruction frontale, par tomodensitométrie tridimensionnelle et qu'un potentiel d'accroissement de la pression subacromiale n'est pas assez élevé pour causer une augmentation de la densité osseuse de l'acromion. La méthode présentée rend possible l'investigation de la pathogénie du défilé du m. supraépineuxin vivo avec une plus grande précision que ce qui a été possible jusqu'alors avec la radiographie conventionnelle.
