This review characterizes daptomycin as a highly effective lipopeptide antibiotic being active against Gram-positive microorganisms, including multidrug resistant strains. The data reflecting the up-to-date daptomycin-based approaches to antimicrobial therapy of infective endocarditis which utilize this drug advantages over standard treatment regimens are presented. The data presented are illustrated with clinical cases.

Pictorial Essay

Total hip arthroplasty has evolved along with improvements in component materials and design. The radiologist must accurately diagnose associated complications with imaging methods and stay informed about newer complications associated with innovations in surgical technique, prosthetic design, and novel materials. This pictorial essay presents clinical and imaging correlation of modern hip arthroplasty complications, with an emphasis on the most common complications of instability, aseptic loosening, and infection as well as those complications associated with contemporary metal-on-metal arthroplasty.

Ectopic pregnancies occur in approximately 1.4% of all pregnancies and account for 15% of pregnancy-related deaths. Considering the high degree of mortality, recognizing an ectopic pregnancy is important. Signs and symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy are nonspecific and include pain, vaginal bleeding, and an adnexal mass. Therefore, imaging can play a critical role in diagnosis. There are different types of ectopic pregnancies, which are tubal, cornual, cesarean scar, cervical, heterotopic, abdominal, and ovarian. Initial imaging evaluation of pregnant patients with pelvic symptoms is by ultrasonography, transabdominal, transvaginal or both. We review the sonographic appearance of different types of ectopic pregnancies that will aid in accurate and prompt diagnosis.

Viscero-atrial situs encompasses the laterality, relative position and configuration of the abdominal viscera, the atria of the heart and the tracheobronchial tree. Determining the situs and cardiac position is the first step in the commonly used sequential, segmental approach to the imaging evaluation of congenital heart defects (CHD). Abnormalities of visceroatrial situs and cardiac position are frequently associated with the presence of complex CHDs and accurate assessment of situs abnormalities can help predict the probability and type of the defect. Multidetector CT (MDCT) angiography, with its multiplanar reformatting and volume rendering techniques, offers accurate information about the morphology and three-dimensional relationships of the various cardiac and extra cardiac structures. In this pictorial essay, we present the MDCT imaging findings of the spectrum of abnormalities of visceroatrial situs and cardiac position, using a third generation dual source CT scanner.

Recent studies indicate there is some disagreement concerning the interpretation and clinical utility of the Type V Bekesy pattern. Bekesy tracings obtained over the past six years from a sample of clinical cases were analyzed and a definition was established for the Type V pattern. This definition was applied to Bekesy tracings obtained from normal listeners, hypoacusics, and pseudohypoacusics. The Type V pattern was found frequently among pseudohypoacusics and only rarely among other individuals.
