Primary synovial osteochondromatosis of the surapatellar pouch of knee. Correlation of imaging features with surgical findings
A 31 years old female presented with swelling and pain above the right knee for three years. On examination, there was a tender swelling over the right knee more pronounced over the suprapatellar region. Plain X-ray, US, CT scan and MRI of the knee were suggestive of Primary synovial osteochondromatosis (PSC) of the suprapatellar pouch. Patient underwent total synovectomy and the diagnosis of synovial osteochondromatosis was confirmed histopathologically. Recognizing the imaging appearances of PSC is important to improve patient management
Pictorial review: Imaging features of unusual patterns and complications of hydatid disease
Hydatid disease is a worldwide zoonosis produced by the larval stage of the Echinococcus tapeworm. We demonstrate rare locations and unusual complications of this entity during past 6 years. Rare locations during our observation included lumbar spine, sacral spine, spleen, ovary, abdominal wall, diaphragm, pelvis and right kidney. Unusual complications included formation of bronchopulmonary fistula, complete collapse of left lung secondary to hilar location of Hydatid cyst and hydatiduria
