AbstractWhen it comes to examining the brachial plexus, ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are complementary investigations. US is well placed for screening most extraforaminal pathologies, whereas MRI is more sensitive and accurate for specific clinical indications. For example, MRI is probably the preferred technique for assessment of trauma because it enables a thorough evaluation of both the intraspinal and extraspinal elements, although US can depict extraforaminal neural injury with a high level of accuracy. Conversely, US is probably the preferred technique for examination of neurologic amyotrophy because a more extensive involvement beyond the brachial plexus is the norm, although MRI is more sensitive than US for evaluating muscle denervation associated with this entity. With this synergy in mind, this review highlights the tips for examining the brachial plexus with US and MRI.

Breast amyloidosis is a rare condition which is mostly associated with hematological disorders or hereditary genetic disorders. Imaging findings of breast amyloidosis can mimic malignancy, which often leads to biopsy or excision of the lesion. Here, we presented a case of localized lactotransferrin-related breast amyloidosis in an elderly female patient. Histologic examination revealed extensive involvement of breast lobules by amorphous amyloid materials, with attenuation of lobular structures and prominent calcifications. Positive immunostains for myoepithelial cells helped to exclude the possibility of invasive carcinoma. The patient had no hematologic malignancy besides immunoglobulin G lambda monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. Mass spectrometry of the breast amyloid identified lactotransferrin and no immunoglobulin or its light chain. On follow-up, the patient showed no recurrence of the breast lesion after local excision nor showed other systematic comorbidities, indicating the benign nature of the lesion. This first report of lactotransferrin-related amyloidosis may represent a special type of localized breast amyloidosis that has no correlation with systematic disorders.

Regional enteritis (Crohn’s disease) is an uncommon chronic inflammation of unknown cause involving one or more parts of the gut.1–3 The affected parts are often thickened: the mucosa is usually ulcerated and there may be adhesions and fistulae. This can cause diarrhoea, steatorrhoea, pain, and acute and chronic obstruction. Malabsorption occurs in extensive involvement of the small bowel or in the ‘blind loop’ syndrome due to strictures, fistulae or by-pass operations, and in addition protein may be lost in the bowel. The fistulae may occur between loops of bowel, and anal fistulae are common. These disorders can cause malaise, fever, anaemia, weight loss, hypoproteinaemia and electrolyte disturbance. Growth may be arrested. Skin lesions, arthropathy and iritis may develop. The first attack may occur at any age, and the disease usually runs a chronic and unpredictable course. However, acute ileitis, diagnosed surgically, does not usually recur,4–6 and it may be a different condition.6
