Optimal Site

While ultrasonography is widely performed prior to biopsy, colour Doppler examination is often used only to discover post-biopsy complications. Aim of this paper was to evaluate the usefulness of colour Doppler examination in planning the optimal site of puncture for renal biopsy. Present analysis includes 561 consecutive percutaneous renal biopsies performed from the same operator. Until August 2000 332 biopsies were performed after a preliminary ultrasonography (Group A). From September 2000, 229 patients underwent even a preliminary colour Doppler study (Group B). Postbioptic bleeding were categorized as minor (gross hematuria or subcapsular perinephric hematoma < 4 cmq of greater diameter) or major (hematoma >4 cmq of greater diameter; requiring blood transfusion or invasive procedures; leading to acute renal failure, urine tract obstruction, septicaemia, or death). Major complications were seen in 2.1% in Group A while in Group B only one case was reported (0.43%). Minor clinically significant complications occur in 7.8% in Group A and in 3.4% of cases of Group B. Colour Doppler reduced drastically the incidence of complications observed before the introduction of routine colour Doppler examination prior to biopsy. In our opinion, these data support the use of preliminary colour Doppler study when a biopsy is planned.

Post Traumatic

Treatment of bleeding psedoaneurysms and pseudocysts of the pancreas is controversial. Surgical treatment with pancreatic resection or trancystic arterial ligation is not always satisfactory since postoperative mortality rate is high, especially for lesions located in the pancreatic head and rebleeding is not unusual. Two patients with bleeding pseudoaneurysms (one post traumatic, one spontaneous) and one with a hemorrhagic pseudocyst of the pancreatic head were treated surgically with arterial suture and omentoplasty. Bleeding was controlled in all, without any postoperative mortality or morbidity. No rebleeding occurred with a follow up of 33, 26 and 12 months. Trancystic ligation of bleeding vessels with omentoplasty may be a useful approach, which should be compared to arterial embolization in the future.

Introduction: Colour Doppler sonography is a well-established widely available,noninvasive, cost effective and a reliable method for assessing cerebrovascular circulation.It has become a valuable completion of the sonographic workup in patients with cerebralischaemia and infarction. Its accuracy is close to angiography. Objectives: To determine thefrequency of significant carotid artery stenosis in patients of cerebral ischaemia/stroke and itscharacterized sonographic appearance of plaque. Study Design: Cross sectional study, basedon nonprobability convenience sample technique. Setting: Department of Radiology, CombinedMilitary Hospital Lahore, using Colour and Power Doppler Ultrasound machine ALOKA SSD-5500. Period: 14 October 2006 to 15 March 2007. Methodology: Total of 50 diagnosed patientsof either gender, aged 30 to 70 years with cerebral ischaemia and stroke were included in thestudy. Carotid Doppler examination was conducted in each patient and findings were recorded.Results: Among 50 patients who underwent carotid Doppler examination for diagnosis ofclinically significant carotid artery stenosis, 35 patients had carotid plaques. 08 patients werediagnosed to have more than 70 % stenosis, 07 patients with more than 50 % and 20 patientsless than 50 % carotid artery stenosis. 15 patients did not show any carotid artery disease.12 patients had bilateral stenosis while 23 had unilateral disease. Mean age of the patientswith and without carotid artery disease was 52 ± 7.87 years. Conclusion: Majority of patientswith Cerebral ischemia/stroke showed carotid artery stenosis on colour Doppler ultrasound.Common age group who developed cerebral ischemia/stroke was above 50years.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements No financial disclosure to be added INTRODUCTION Tinnitus, the perceived sensation of sound in absence of corresponding external acoustic stimulus, has a prevalence of 15% among adults [1]; it may impair quality of life in about 1-2% of cases. When pulsatile, objective and synchronous with heart beat, it may be secondary to vascular abnormalities [2]; in some patients a post-traumatic pathogenesis ( head and neck) has been reported, with a prevalence up to 10% . CASE REPORT We report the case of a 28 year old male patient with a history of a right side pulsatile tinnitus occurred three days after head trauma. Described as "hearing heart beat in the right ear as a turbulent sound", it corresponded with an audible bruit and palpable fremitus in latero-cervical region. History was negative for medical or surgical comorbidities as laboratory investigation; color Doppler ultrasound revealed an external carotid artery collateral- internal jugular vein fistula, resulting in a pulsatile turbulent flow, synchronic with heart beat. Angio-CT scan of epiaortic vessels confirmed findings in the context of occipital articulation, near jugular foramen. Patient postponed further investigations for personal reasons. DISCUSSION Vascular post-traumatic lesions may cause post-traumatic pulsatile tinnitus. Symptom onset may be delayed from several days up to twelve weeks after trauma and it can be a sign of life-threatening disorders such as carotid cavernous fistulas, arteriovenous malformations, and carotid dissections [3 ] . Clinical management includes basic diagnostic steps ( history, assessment of tinnitus severity, clinical ear examination, audiological and a neurovascular examination [2] . CT and MR with angiography, following colour-Doppler ultrasound , are used to determine the anatomical cause of vascular pulsatile tinnitus and to study surrounding structures. Angiography may be helpful for diagnosis and treatment planning [4]. CONCLUSIONS Pulsatile tinnitus may occur after head and neck trauma, may affect quality of life and can be caused by live-threatening lesions. Arteriovenous fistulae between carotid artery branches and jugular vein may be treatable anatomical cause of symptoms, and have to be considered in differential diagnosis . Abstract P1495 Figure.

Interventional radiology of the male urogenital system includes percutaneous and endovascular procedures, and these last consist mostly of transcatheter arterial embolizations. At the kidney level, arterial embolizations are performed mainly for palliative treatment of parenchymal tumors, for renal traumas and, less frequently, for arteriovenous fistulas and renal aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms. These latter may often require emergency intervention as they can cause renal or peri-renal hematomas or significant hematuria. Transcatheter arterial embolization is also an effective therapy for intractable severe bladder hematuria secondary to a number of neoplastic and inflammatory conditions in the pelvis, including unresectable bladder cancer and radiation-induced or cyclophosphamide-induced hemorrhagic cystitis. Endovascular interventional procedures for the penis are indicated for the treatment of post-traumatic priapism. In this article, we review the main endovascular radiological interventions of the male urogenital system, describing the technical aspects, results, and complications of each procedure at the various anatomical districts.
