Man 65 yo in trouble  and difficult mictation, looked like in prostate disease.

Ultrasound of pelvis  detected  one presacral ovoid mass causes  deplacement  of rectum and  prostate (US picture 1).

Pelvis MSCT of this tumor presented solid, retrorectum, and presacral, well bordered, and not connected to rectum or  sacrum (see CT1, CT2).

MRI with gado of this  tumor is  central necrosis , well  enhanced  with gado contrast ( see  MRI 1, 2 ,3).

Blood tests detected normal everything.

ULTRASOUND GUIDED  CORE BIOPSY  REPORT WAS  GIST.

case-304-hip pain

Man 43 yo, one week ago, pain at  his left  hip  while moving his thigh, no trauma history.

Ultrasound first saw  the  left hip joint  having a small amout of fluid collection  and  more  Power Doppler in muscles  around the hip ( see 4 US images).

MSCT was done but radiologist said nothing abnormal detected.

MRI detected abnormal head of left  femur  bone  looked like  aseptic necrotic femoral head.

Please compare  diagnostic values of 3 diagnostic modalities for this case:ultrasound, MSCT and MRI.

DISCUSSION:
In this case  ultrasound first  saw abnormal edema in the left hip joint. CT  scanning  cannot  detected  at the early stage  of  head femoral AVN disease ( AVN, avascular necrosis). MRI  was the best  imaging modality for  diagnosing  AVN  in this case. Early  diagnosing  may cause  good response  to medical treatment.

case-303 INGUINAL SCARPA TUMOR

Woman  61 yo  detected  at right inguinal  scarpa a  small tumor  slowly  growth, no  painful,  size of  about  one egg. Clinical palpation was  subcutaneous, hard nodule,  fixed  to  deep  layer.
Ultrasound scanned it was  a round mass , size of 5 cm in diameter,  well-bordered, inside  structure  was  solid and inhomogeneous  ( US picture 1).

 Doppler  scanning  detected  hypervascular  with  hilus,  vascular supplying  of a lymph node (US picture 2), and   Doppler spectrum  of  hilus artery  was  pulsatile , V1= 52 cm/s and  RI=0.6.
  

Elastography ultrasound  was a soft mass, inhomogeneous structure.

Sonologist  cannot  find another abnormal  lymph node at  another  side, and report  suspected  inflammation  lymph node.

Blood tests  WBC, CRP, beta2 microglubuline  were  normal.

Core biopsy with immunohisto staining report was lymphoma.

case-302ovarian-tumor

Woman 50 yo, vaginal bleeding.

Pelvis ultrasound  detected  one mass  cystic, multiloculated   with  septation thickening and  solid part. No ascites (see  5 US pictures).

MRI  with  gado reported  with  enhanced  CE  suspected  ovary cancer.

Blood test :  CA-125  rising  125 U/mL
Pre operative  diagnosis  is  ovary cancer  stage II B. Microscopic  specimen report is  serous cystadenocarcinoma.

MAN 83 YO HAD BEEN  TREATED  LUNG CANCER WITH  CHEMOTHERAPY  AND RADIATION  FOR 2 YEARS.

ONE  MONTH  AGO  HE DETECTED  SMALL SKIN TUMOR  AT LEFT TEMPORAL SCALP  RAPID  GROWING AND BLEEDING ( SEE PICTURE).

ULTRASOUND  SCAN   REPORTED  THIS TUMOR BEING  FROM THE  SCALP NO  INVADE  TO  BONE ( SEE  2 US  PICTURES)  AND   LIVER  METASTASIS ( US PICTURE 3)

MSCT  CONFIRMED THE  SCALP TUMOR   NOT ERODING THE BONE, MANY  METASTATIC  LESIONS FROM THE LUNG TUMOR  TO  BOTH SIDE OF LUNG, LIVER, ADRENAL GLAND.

BIOPSY OF THIS TUMOR  CONFIRMED THAT  METASTASIS FROM LUNG CANCER,  SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA..

SUMMARY:   LUNG CANCER  SOMETIMES  METASTASES TO SKIN OF SCALP AND NOT TO BONE.
