Bilateraly Diaphragmatic Traumatic Rupture with Delayed and Liver Herniation of Right Diaphragmatic Rupture

Bilateraly diyafragmatic rupture is a rare pathology. The incidence isregarded 0.8-5%. Here we reported a bilateraly diyafragmatic rupture withdelayed right diyafragmatic liver herniation. We review the literature andwe mentioned the important radiologic findings of the patology withultrasonoghraphy, Computed tomography, and magnetic resonanceimaging

Bladder Leiomyoma: Case Report

Leiomyoma of the bladder is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor. Theclinic symptomatology depends on the tumor site, and this type of lesion ismorefrequently found in women. Treatment mainly consist of endoscopicresection, but may involve partial cystectomy

Primer Hydatid Cyst In Paravertebral Muscle

Hydatid cysts may occur in any area of the body, but usually localize to the liver and the lungs. Primary localization in muscle isn’t common, accounting for 2-3 % of all sites. We presented a patient with hydatid cyst, diagnosed by ultrasonography and computed tomography, and the cyst was located in the paravertebral muscle of the patient. Surgical and medical treatment combination.The intact intramuscular cyst was completely excised. Postoperatively, the patient began receiving albendazol 400 mg twice daily, for 6 months. At two years postoperatively, a clinical and radiological examination yielded no evidence of recurrence

Radiologic Imaging of Diaphragmatic Pathologies

We researched the images methods in the evaluation of diaphragmaticpathologies. The study was done with 30 patients (21 males, 9 females). Themedian age of the patients was 36.1 years (Range 1-74 years). Firstly,lateraly and posteroanterior chest X-Ray were done in all patients the otherradiological images were the Barium examination, ultrasonography,computerized tomography and magnetic rezonans imaging. We determineddiaphragmatic pseudotumour in 4 patients, congenital diaphragmatichernia in 6 patients, diaphragmatic paralysis in 2 patients, diaphragmaticelevation in 8 patients, hiatal hernia in 5 patients, and diaphragmaticrupture in 5 patients.Although radiological images were developed all, we believe that thediaphragmatic pathologies should be evaluated with both clinically andradiologically in all patients

Clinical and Radiological Evaluation of Children with Subacute Sclerosan Panencephalitis

A total of 65 children with Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis (SSPE) who admittedto our clinic between September 1998 and December 2002 were retrospectively evaluated interms of clinical and radiological findings.The most common symptoms and findings at admission were myoklonia (31 patients, 47%), behaveral changes (18 patients, 27.7 %) and convulsion (8 patients, 12 %). There was atrauma history initiating symptoms in 14 patients (21.5 %). Neurological symptoms presentedsignificantly earlier in patients who had measles before 2 years of age compared to others(p< 0.05). There was no correlation between latent period and age at the time of meales(p>0.05). The clinical stage of the patients at admission was determined based on Risk veHaddad classification. The most frequent stage was IIA (21 patients, 32.2%), IIC (17patients, 26.2%) and IIB (16 patients, 24.6%). At the follow-up period, 46 (71%) patients wasdepended to bed. The mean time interval between SSPE initiation age and bed dependencywas 4.68 ± 4.05 months (1-17 months).Of the 31 patients who underwent cranial magnetic rezonans imaging (MRI), 15patients (48.38%) had pathological findings, the most frequent findings were cortical vesubcortical lesions. Of the 24 patients who underwent cranial tomographi, 22 (91.6%) werenormal. Of the remaining two, one had atrophy and the other had increase in contrast. All ofthe patients underwent rutine EEG test. Fifty-four (83.1%) of these had periodic complexhigh slow wave activity.The clinical findings and Electro Encephalographi results are important parameters inthe diagnosis of SSPE. Cranial tomographi is not useful in the diagnosis of SSPE. However,cranial MRI findings is pathologic only in the half of the patients
