摘要:
SUMMARYA study was undertaken to determine the usefulness of ultrasonography as an investigative tool, and its role in deciding the management of Peyronie's disease.Fifteen patients with Peyronie's disease were studied by ultrasonography. The plaque could be demonstrated in all patients. The dimensions of the plaque varied from less than 1 cm to more than 7cm in length and 2‐4mm in thickness. The disease was active in 26% of the patients, as indicated by the presence of hypoechoic areas around a central region of hyperechoism. Ultrasonogram was more accurate than clinical assessment in delineating the extent of lesions. In one‐third of the patients, sonography demonstrated the plaques to be more extensive than had been detected by clinical examination. Calcification and activity of disease (which are clearly defined by ultrasonogram) are determining factors in the management of Peyronie's disease. This information allows the surgeon to select the modality of treatment, the timing of surgery and extent of excision. Thus, ultrasonography plays a vital role in the preliminary investigation and management of Peyronie's dise

摘要:
SUMMARYAbdominal wall haematomas are uncommon, difficult to diagnose clinically and often associated with systemic anticoagulation. Seven cases together with the imaging results are presented and the characteristic features and potential pitfalls are discussed. Ultrasound is the first line investigation but the results can be misleading and computed tomography (CT) is often required to confirm the diagnosis.

摘要:
SUMMARYComputed tomography (CT) of the chest, pulmonary function tests, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and arterial blood gas analysis were performed in 26 patients with non‐HIV miliary tuberculosis (MTB). CT was repeated after treatment in 11 patients. Nodular lesions were characteristically seen on CT. CT showed discrete and fine nodules in five patients in whom the lesions appeared to be larger than miliary on chest X‐rays. Coalescing nodular lesions were noted on chest X‐rays (n= 7) and CT (n= 18). Consolidation (n= 6), cavitation (n= 4), fibrosis (n= 9) and air trapping (n= 14) were detected on CT only. During follow up, air trapping increased h = 14) and in some patients it appeared for the first time (n= 2). Lymph node enlargement and calcification were seen on both chest X‐rays (n= 9 and (n= 3, respectively) and CT (n= 12 andn= 7, respectively). Pleural involvement was also seen in chest X‐rays (n= 4) and CT (n= 5). Total lung capacity was higher in patients with a chest X‐ray score>10. Similarly a higher total cell count in BAL fluid was observed in patients with a CT score>10. It is concluded from this study that CT is superior to chest X‐rays in detecting nodular lesions, lymphadenopathy and air trapping in pati

摘要:
SUMMARYAtlanto‐axial rotatory fixation (AARF) is an uncommon condition which is often missed at presentation because of its rarity and the relative subtlety of plain film X‐ray findings, but early detection and appropriate management are vital for a cure. We describe three cases in which the use of spiral computed tomography scanning with 3D and sagittal reconstructions greatly aided diagnosis and management. The 3D images gave a more graphic picture of the overall alignment of the upper cervical spine and the skull base, while the sagittal reconstructions demonstrated the presence or absence of compensatory atlanto‐occipital subluxation. The literature is briefly rev

摘要:
SUMMARYIntraventricular neurocytoma is a rare cerebral tumour which is usually associated with a good prognosis. It has imaging features which help differentiate it from other cerebral tumours. We report three cases including the first to originate from the pineal gland. The report emphasizes the radiological appearance and reviews the literature.

摘要:
SUMMARYInferior lesions in the breast can be difficult to localize pre‐operatively using the hook wire technique as the equipment does not readily allow an approach from below. Distorting the breast by rolling it against the cassette holder displaces an inferior lesion into a lateral position. The lesion can then be easily localized by the shortest needle pat

摘要:
SUMMARYThe whirl sign has been described as a computed tomography (CT) finding of volvulus of the gut. Six cases are presented with a range of clinical diagnoses (a volvulus, adhesive obstruction with volvulus and previous left hemicolectomy, adhesions alone, transverse colectomy, and right hemicolectomy). All demonstrated a whirl sign. A further case simulating a whirl sign is also presented. We propose that the whirl sign, although a finding highly suggestive of volvulus, can occur in any situation that produces rotation or twisting of bowel and its mesenteric attachment.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe acute morbidity of high dose radiation therapy for carcinoma of the prostate in a group of 169 patients treated between February 1993 and April 1994 was examined. Morbidity was determined at the start of therapy, then weekly during therapy and at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months after therapy. Morbidity was examined from the view of the treating doctor and the patients. Morbidity was found to peak at the end of the treatment. From the radiation oncologist's perspective, 80–85% of patients experienced significant bladder and bowel morbidity. The level of acute morbidity was acceptable and there was only one patient that was admitted to hospital for symptomatic control of his acute reaction. Recovery was practically complete after 3 months for both bladder and bowel morbidity. Fifty per cent of patients experienced dysuria, 75% perianal discomfort and 87% frequency at the end of the treatment. Most of the individual factors recovered following radiation but urinary frequency and perianal discomfort were the most persistent problem
