Introduction: A 66 year-old male suffered globe trauma due to A bird, a German Desert Hawk, strike. At the first examination in the emergency ünit a few hours after the injury, the patient reported persistent horizontal diplopia. Case report: He had right conjunctival laceration, mild proptosis, subconjunctival hematoma, exotropia with no adduction. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed that it was suggestive of laceration of the right medial rectus muscle, at about the junction of it’s anterior and middle thirds. During surgery; initially, the lacerated proximal end of the distal segment was isolated. The proximal segment of the medial rectus muscle was then carefully dissected. The two lacerated ends were then joined with 6-0 polyglactin sutures. Conclusion: The day after surgery, there was no deviation and diplopia in all diagnostic gaze positions.

Abstract A 54-year-old man with a right hemiparesis was found to have an intrasellar intercarotid communicating artery associated with agenesis of the right internal carotid artery. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies demonstrated the spatial relationship of the anomalous artery to the surrounding structures, thus suggesting an embryonic enlargement of the capsular artery as a source of this anomalous artery.

In vivo dynamic changes in the interosseous membrane (IOM) during forearm rotation were studied using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The right forearms of 20 healthy volunteers were examined in five different rotational positions. Axial slices were obtained at the proximal quarter, the middle and the distal quarter of the forearm. The changes in shape of the IOM during rotation were observed in an axial MR plane. For each image, we measured the interosseous distance and the length of the interosseous membrane. Images of the tendinous and membranous parts of the IOM could be differentiated by thickness. There were minimal dynamic changes in the tendinous part on the MRI while the membranous part showed numerous changes during rotation. The interosseous distance and the length of the interosseous membrane were maximum from a neutral to a slightly supinated position. The tendinous part is considered to be taut during rotation to provide stability between the radius and the ulna, but the membranous part which is soft, thin and elastic, allows smooth rotation.

ABSTRACTWe report an unusual case of unilateral limb pseudo hypertrophy in a 21-year-old lady who developed progressive enlargement of the right calf followed by thigh in association with chronic leg pain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the affected limb confirmed enlargement of various muscles. Electromyography revealed neurogenic features consistent with S1 radiculopathy. MRI of the lumbosacral spine showed tethered cord with a lipoma infiltrating multiple sacral roots. Our case illustrates that muscular pseudo hypertrophy may follow chronic denervation as a consequence of spinal neural compressive disease. The various mechanisms postulated for this distinct condition are outlined.

AbstractWe present our experience using the Clarion® magnetless multichannel cochlear implant with a woman profoundly deafened following bilateral acoustic neuromata as a consequence of neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2). The right neuroma had been previously removed without an attempt at neural preservation. On the left, however, a posterior fossa approach had been taken with the aim of preserving hearing. Although the left cochlear nerve appeared to be undamaged at the end of the operation, no hearing thresholds could be elicited on post-operative audiometry, because of damage either to the cochlear nerve or to the blood supply to the cochlea. Round window electrical stimulation subsequently produced a perception of sound, confirming that the cochlear nerve was capable of functioning and that a cochlear implant would be effective. Because she would need regular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to monitor existing and future NF2 lesions, it was decided to use a magnetless Clarion® implant, which has been shown to be MRI compatible. We report our experience of using the device in this case and discuss some of the issues related to the provision of cochlear implants to patients with NF2.

The multiseptate bladder is a congenital bladder anomaly that is very rare and often accompanied by other congenital abnormalities. This condition could result in intravesical obstruction and kidney failure in more serious conditions. A 3-year-old girl without any complaint was consulted by the Pediatric Surgery Department with postoperative cloacal type malformation anorectal (MAR) postero-sagittal anorecto-vagino-urethroplasty (PSARVUP) + sigmoidectomy. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the pelvis showed the appearance of four interconnected multiple fluid lesions. Cystoscopy was performed and found many septa with varied positions and forms. From the cystography during the operation, it was seen duplication of the right and left bladder. There was no further operative treatment in the field of urology because no urinary tract obstruction and normal renal function were found in this study.

Abstract Background: Nowadays, it needs favorable biomarkers to follow up the disease progression and therapeutic responses of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). This study evaluates which one of Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is suitable for the disease in China. Methods: Thirty-six boys with DMD engaged in the longitudinal observational cohort study, who used prednisone from baseline to 12th month. Muscle thickness (MT) and echo intensity (EI) of QMUS and T1-weighted MRI grading were measured in the right quadriceps femoris of the boys with DMD. Results: The scores of MT and EI of QMUS and T1-weighted MRI grading showed significant correlations with the clinical ones of muscle strength, timed testing, and quality of life. The scores of MT and EI of QMUS showed good correlations with the ones of T1-weighted MRI grading too (P<0.05). But 15 of 36 boys with DMD did not take MRI examinations for different reasons. Conclusions: QMUS and MRI can use as biomarkers for tracking DMD. Nevertheless, QMUS, because of its practical, low cost, and patient-friendly, applies for DMD widely than MRI in China.

Gall bladder (GB) may be found in a variety of abnormal positions. Most of them are due to arrested development of embryonic growth at different stages. A 63-year-old female patient was admitted to our radiology unit for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the liver for the lesions identified in abdominal ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT). MRI showed that there was a lobulated heterogenous mass in the left lobe of the liver and a smaller one in the right lobe of the liver with the same appearance. The inferior pole of the liver was located in the pelvic space, and the GB, which contained sludges and stones, was lying down to the upper pelvic space. Hepatic masses were considered to be hemangiomas, and GB was diagnosed as ptotic GB with luminal sludge and stones. In this case, especially, MR imaging helped the surgeon to plan a proper approach to the GB in abnormal localization.

Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a congenital heart disease that accounts for up to 40% of all congenital cardiac malformations. VSD is a connection between right and left ventricle, through the ventricular septum. Echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) help identify this entity. This case presents a 12-year-old male diagnosed with a small muscular apical VSD of 3 mm in diameter, at echocardiography. Cardiac MRI using first-pass perfusion sequence, combining the right plane of acquisition with a short bolus of contrast material, clearly confirmed the presence of VSD.

We employed magnetic resonance imaging to quantify human extraocular muscle contractility during centered target fusion and fusional divergence repeated with each eye viewing monocularly at 20 cm through 8Δ and at 400 cm through 4Δ base in prism. Contractility, indicated by posterior partial volume (PPV) change, was analyzed in transverse rectus and in medial and lateral superior oblique (SO) muscle compartments and by cross-sectional area change in the inferior oblique (IO). At 20 cm, 3.1 ± 0.5° (SE) diverging eye abduction in 10 subjects was associated with 4.2 ± 1.5% whole lateral rectus (LR) PPV increase ( P < 0.05) and 1.7 ± 1.1% overall medial rectus (MR) PPV decrease attributable to 3.1 ± 1.8% reduction in the superior compartment ( P < 0.025), without change in its inferior compartment or in muscles of the aligned eye. At 400 cm, 2.2 ± 0.5° diverging eye abduction in nine subjects was associated with 6.1 ± 1.3% whole LR PPV increase ( P < 10−5) but no change in MR, with compartmentally similar relaxation in the LR and MR of the aligned eye. Unlike convergence, there were no IO or SO contractile changes for divergence to either target nor any change in rectus pulley positions. Results confirm and extend to proximal divergence the unique role of the superior MR compartment, yet no MR role for far divergence. Corelaxation of aligned eye LR and MR combined with failure of MR relaxation during divergence is consistent with the limited behavioral range of divergence. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Magnetic resonance imaging shows that the lateral rectus muscle must overcome continued contraction by its opponent the medial rectus when humans diverge their visual axes to achieve single, binocular vision. While the upper but not lower compartment of the medial rectus assists by relaxing for near targets, it does not do so when targets are far away. This behavior violates Sherrington’s law of reciprocal action of antagonists and conventional assumptions about the ocular motor system.
