DiagnosisStent Placement for Recurrent Central Venous Occlusion
History73 year old man with ESRD presents with severe left arm swelling following regular dialysis. When questioned he reports that the size of his arm has increased significantly over the preceding 2 weeks.
FindingsChronic left brachiocephalic vein stenosis Sub-acute complete occlusion Angioplasty and stenting of the occlusion
Differential DxCentral venous stenosis or central venous occlusion can be due to a number of disparate primary pathologies: Chronic local venous hypertension in the arm of a dialysis patient, Paget Schroder syndrome in an athlete using anabolic steroids, fibrosis due to indwelling pacemaker leads, and superior vena cava syndrome due to cancer are some of the more common of these processes. Lymphedema (subsequent to axiallary node dissection or other etiology)

DiagnosisRecurrent pyogenic (Oriental) cholangiohepatitis with intrahepatic biliary stricture and stone formation.
History46 year-old female with history of Oriental cholangiohepatitis who undergoes routine cholangiogram and biliary stone removal.
FindingsAfter accessing the Hutson-Russell cutaneous choledochojejunostomy loop, a glidewire and vascular sheath were passed into the biliary system allowing a cholangiogram to be performed which demonstrated numerous small filling defects consistent with stones within the left dorsal and ventral hepatic biliary system. The right biliary system was clear of stones. The entire biliary tract was diffusely mildly dilated. A short segment stenosis was noted within the left hepatic duct near the confluence of the right and left ducts. This was dilated with a 10 mm angioplasty balloon. A Fogarty balloon was advanced into the left biliary systems, inflated, and retracted pulling the stones into the common bile duct. Post procedure cholangiogram reveled significant improvement in the left-sided stone burden and reduction of the stricture of the left hepatic duct.

Diagnosis(Recurrent) Inflammatory Myxohyaline Tumor of Distal Extremities (Acral Myxoinflammatory Fibroblastic Sarcoma)
HistoryA 56 year-old healthy female presented with a one-month history of an enlarging, fluctuant left lateral ankle mass. An MRI showed a 4 cm irregular mass in the left lateral supramalleolar area, intimately associated with the left peroneal tendon. The mass was resected in a piecemeal fashion. Grossly, the specimen consisted of multiple yellow-tan fragments of tissue, measuring 3.3 x 2.5 x 1.2 cm in aggregate. The cut surfaces were yellow-white with focal gelatinous areas. A 56 year-old healthy female presented with a one-month history of an enlarging, fluctuant left lateral ankle mass. An MRI showed a 4 cm irregular mass in the left lateral supramalleolar area, intimately associated with the left peroneal tendon. The mass was resected in a piecemeal fashion. Grossly, the specimen consisted of multiple yellow-tan fragments of tissue, measuring 3.3 x 2.5 x 1.2 cm in aggregate. The cut surfaces were yellow-white with focal gelatinous areas. Microscopically, the tumor was multinodular with cellular areas composed of spindle to epithelioid cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and ovoid nuclei. Also present, were myxoid areas characterized by abundant myxoid stroma, stellate cells and numerous pseudolipoblasts. Sparse enlarged cells with mild nuclear atypia and conspicuous single eosinophilic nucleoli were seen. Rare mitoses and chronic inflammation were identified. No additional treatment was given. Four months later the patient presented with a Recurrent mass in the same area. The mass was again excised revealing a lesion with similar morphologic features. This was felt to be a recurrence of the previous lesion, with slightly increased cellularity and atypia compared to the previous lesion.
FindingsMRI showed a 4 cm irregular mass in the left lateral supramalleolar area, intimately associated with the left peroneal tendon.
Differential DxBenign differential diagnoses include nodular fasciitis, tenosynovial giant cell tumor, inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor and infectious lesions. Malignant tumors that show some resemblance with this lesion are myxoid liposarcoma and myxofibrosarcoma. A liposarcoma is usually localized in a deeper anatomical level and lacks the inflammatory component. Although there could be some resemblance, myxofibrosarcoma has a propensity to occur in the proximal extremities, has a prominent curvilinear vascular pattern, and is, in its classic presentation, not an inflammatory lesion.

DiagnosisRecurrent epithelioid sarcoma
History82 year old female with history of "sarcoma" right knee s/p resection with positive margin in 2004. Patient did not receive radiation therapy following surgery. Presents with increasing right knee/leg pain. MRI performed.
Findings1. 3.5 x 2.2 x 1.7 cm enhancing soft tissue lesion located predominantly within the distal vastus lateralis muscle at the level of the distal femoral diaphysis. This is most suggestive of tumor recurrence. 2. 1.3 x 0.8 x 0.9 cm enhancing lesion within the deep subcutaneous soft tissues of the anterior proximal thigh, suspicious for soft tissue sarcoma. 3. Postoperative changes about the knee from prior resection. A crescentic shaped fluid collection anterior to the proximal tibia has decreased in size. 4. Small joint effusion.
Differential Dx• Recurrent sarcoma

DiagnosisChronic Recurrent DVT
History32 y/o WF with a 4-day history of left leg pain beginning at mid-thigh level and edema below the level of the knee over the previous 24-hour period. She was feeling well prior to the onset of these symptoms. About 18 months earlier, the patient had been involved in a MVA, during which she sustained soft tissue trauma to the right lower leg, and multiple metatarsal fractures. A short cast was applied, and the patient was discharged from the hospital on crutches without RLE weight bearing. The patient returned one week later complaining about pain in the right calf and that the “cast was too tight”. The cast was removed and compression ultrasound confirmed DVT. The patient was started on Lovenox 1mg/kg SC q12h until PO anticoagulation with Coumadin was established. The patient remained on Coumadin for 4 months without any complications or recurrence. Prior to this current problem, the patient was fully ambulatory, there was no recent history of trauma to the left leg, and no other risk factors for DVT could be identified.
FindingsCXR – unremarkable, NAPD. Compression U/S – RLE: Normal, easily compressible hypoechoic veins with some posterior wall enhancement in proximal RLE. No evidence of venous distention. Compression U/S - LLE: Noncompressibility of common femoral vein with echogenic thrombus within the vein lumen consistent with chronic DVT.
Differential DxChronic DVT, Acute DVT, Baker’s cyst, cellulitis, lymphedema, chronic venous insufficiency, superficial thrombophlebitis, popliteal venous or arterial aneurysm, enlarged lymph nodes compressing the veins, heterotopic ossification, hematoma, and muscle tears.

DiagnosisDiagnosis: 64 y.o. female with Recurrent breast cancer with metastasis to lymph nodes and lungs. Liver mass biopsy reveals adenocarcinoma, with histology consistent with breast tissue.
HistoryHistory (can include gestational age, or age in days, weeks, months): 64 y.o. WF with hx of Breast CA (1996), s/p lumpectomy and XRT, admitted for workup of fatigue, 15-20 lb weight loss in 8 months, and increased abdominal girth in the setting of imaging studies, which show ascites (with peritoneal fluid negative for malignant cells), liver lesions, and multiple lung masses. Prior workup demonstrated elevated LFTs, Elevated CEA, CA 19-9, CA 125, and negative viral hepatitis panels.
FindingsImage Findings: 1. PET scan—2 hypermetabolic foci in Left breast; Focal hypermetabolic uptake in inferior Right liver lobe and Left liver lobe with diffuse/heterogeneous uptake in Right lobe; diffuse bone uptake in axial/appendicular skeleton that is nonspecific: malignant vs liver failure. 2. MRCP/MRI abdomen—liver cirrhosis and portal HTN leading to splenomegaly and ascites; no pancreatic ductal dilatation; liver lesions are peripheral with capsular retraction 3. CT chest—too numerous to count non-calcified nodules in lungs; Left breast lesion and axillary lymph node 4. Breast U/S (image not available for MedPix) used for core Bx—1.2cm lesion in Left upper outer breast; BIRADS category 5
Differential DxDifferential Diagnosis for these findings in this case: 1. Liver lesions and ascites: Periportal fibrosis, cirrhosis leading to HCC, regenerating nodules, inflammation, neoplastic infiltration in interstitium 2. Lung nodules: metastasis, infectious, granulomatous, TB, mycobacterial 3. Breast lesions: primary lesion, metastasis

DiagnosisRecurrent high-grade astrocytoma
History38 y.o. white male with previously diagnosed high-grade glioma in the left parietal lobe, s/p radiation treatment.
FindingsInitial multiple MR images demonstrate a ring-enhancing lesion in the site of glioma, previously treated with radiation therapy, with some areas of nodular changes. MR spectroscopy of normal site, TE = 144 msec, which demonstrates prominent N-acetylaspartate (NAA) peak at the 2.0 ppm, which is the normal neuronal marker. Creatine peak at 3.0 ppm and choline peak at 3.2 ppm are also demonstrated, showing normal relationships. MR spectroscopy of the abnormal site, TE = 144 msec, which demonstrates elevation of the choline peak, and the suppression of the NAA peak, along with an inverted peak at the 1.0-1.2 ppm, which is the lactate peak (which characteristically inverts at TE = 144 msec). These findings suggest tumor recurrence with some areas of necrosis, rather than radiation-induced changes.
Differential Dx• Residual tumor • Recurrent tumor • Radiation effect • Normal brain • Post-operative changes

DiagnosisRecurrent Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
HistoryPt is a 26 y/o WF with hx of Papillary thyroid cancer, s/p total thyroidectomy in 1999 with 1.4 cm primary tumor and with numerous positive cervical lymph nodes at that time. Due to residual disease in neck/chest, including multiple small pulmonary metastases, she has received total of approx 700 mCi of I131 therapy to date, with last Tx dose in 8/01.
FindingsI-131 Head/Neck Scan: No focal accumulations of radiotracer. Chest/Neck MRI: There is no visible thyroid tissue within the thyroid bed. Shotty bilateral anterior cervical chain lymph nodes. No masses or enhancing lesions within the neck. Normal appearance to the parotid and submandibular glands. On coronal images #13 and axial images #23, there is a long axis, 1.5 cm oval soft tissue nodule in the right supraclavicular region that correlates with a lesion exhibiting abnormal radiopharmaceutical uptake on the PET scan. This implies pathologic involvement. Ultrasound: Sonographic evaluation of the right and left thyroid beds demonstrate no definite residual thyroid tissue. No discrete masses are noted to correlate with the patient’s palpable findings. No abnormally enlarged lymph nodes can be delineated. 18-FDG PET: There is a focus of moderately intense radiotracer accumulation in the right supraclavicular region approximately 2 cm superolateral to the right clavicular head and determined to be at a depth of less than 1 cm from the skin surface. (This focus was not palpable.) Also of note is increased uptake in the patient’s thymus (which appears normal on both CT and MRI).
