Dysplasia Epiphysealis Hemimelica

Trevor’s disease, also known as dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica, is a rare developmental bone dysplasia, characterized by benign osteocartilaginous overgrowth pathologically indistinguishable from osteochondroma. The lesion arises from epiphysis more so on the medial aspect of long bones resulting in painless or painful deformities and limb length discrepancies. Imaging plays an important role in diagnosis as the features are characteristic in an appropriate demographic background. We report a case of Trevor’s disease in a 2-year male with multifocal involvement and characteristic imaging findings.

AbstractOur understanding of the manifestations of pneumoconioses is evolving in recent years. Associations between novel exposures and diffuse interstitial lung disease have been newly recognized. In advanced asbestosis, two types of fibrosis are seen, probably related to dose of exposure, existence of pleural fibrosis, and the host factor status of the individual. In pneumoconiosis of predominant reticular type, nodular opacities are often seen in the early phase. The nodular pattern is centrilobular, although some in metal lung show perilymphatic distribution, mimicking sarcoidosis. High-resolution computed tomography enables a more comprehensive correlation between the pathologic findings and clinically relevant imaging findings. The clinician must understand the spectrum of characteristic imaging features related to both known dust exposures and to historically recent new dust exposures.

Chapter 74 discusses anemia conditions including sickle cell disease and thalassemia. Anemia is a condition of decreased oxygen delivery to organs caused by a deficit of functional red blood cells. It is a very common clinical condition and has a wide variety of causes. Of the common causes, the hemoglobinopathies have the most characteristic imaging findings. There are common imaging findings secondary to the compensatory increase in red blood cell and precursor number. Radiographs are a standard initial imaging study. MRI is the most sensitive imaging study for the sequelae of anemia. Iron deficiency anemia is treated with iron supplementation, aplastic anemia is treated by removal of the inciting agent, and painful crises of sickle cell are treated symptomatically.

Engelmann Disease

Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare type of desmoid tumor characterized by local aggressiveness and a tendency to relapse. In view of these characteristics it may be considered a low-grade fibrosarcoma. Camurati-Engelmann disease is a very rare form of bone dysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis of the diaphyses of the long bones. Here we describe the case of a male patient affected by these two rare diseases in association with chronic inflammatory intestinal disease.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> The LRS is an excellent option treating the failed osteosynthesis in long bone fractures, because of failure in healing due to loosening of implant, infection, nonunion, poor bone quality and bone loss associated with deformities, limb length discrepancy, soft tissue problems, functional and financial issues.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> we prospectively treated 30 cases of failed osteosynthesis of long bones (7 plating, 22 nailing &amp; 1 k-wire with plaster) between April 2009 to October 2015 with LRS. Initially we managed by implant removal, freshening of fracture site or radical debridement followed by LRS application.<strong></strong></p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> Union occurred in 93% cases. The eradication of infection was seen in 96.5% cases. Average lengthening done was 4.2 cms. We had 93% excellent and 7 % poor bony result. Functional result was excellent in 45%, good in 48% and failure in 7% cases using ASAMI scoring system.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions:</strong> LRS is an excellent option in the management of failed osteosynthesis especially associated with infection, nonunion, deformities, limb length discrepancy, soft  tissue problems, functional and financial issues and also where re-osteosynthesis is challenging with poor bone quality and bone stock. It is simpler technically, patient friendly and short learning curve.</p>

Emergency trauma radiology, although a relatively new subspecialty of radiology, plays a critical role in both the diagnosis/triage of acutely ill patients, but even more important in providing leadership and taking the lead in the preparedness of imaging departments in dealing with novel highly infectious communicable diseases and mass casualties. This has become even more apparent in dealing with COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, first emerged in late 2019. We review the symptoms, epidemiology, and testing for this disease. We discuss characteristic imaging findings of COVID-19 in relation to other modern coronavirus diseases including SARS and MERS. We discuss roles that community radiology clinics, outpatient radiology departments, and emergency radiology departments can play in the diagnosis of this disease. We review practical methods to reduce spread of infections within radiology departments.
