<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> Extravasation of iodinated contrast into subdural space following contrast-enhanced radiographic studies results in hyperdense effusions, which can be mistaken as acute hematomas on follow-up noncontrast head CTs. Our aim was to identify the factors associated with contrast-enhancing effusion, characterize diffusion and washout kinetics iodine enhancing assess utility dual-energy CT differentiating effusion from hematoma. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> We...
High-energy monochromatic (190 keV) images may be more reliable than standard 120 kV Images for detecting intracranial hemorrhages. We aimed to retrospectively compare virtual high and from dual-energy computed tomography (CT; DECT) the diagnosis of hemorrhages in traumatic brain injury (TBI). analyzed admission CT studies 100 trauma patients. Three radiologists independently reviewed four image sets: 190 keV (thin [1 mm] thick [5 section) presence various types The proportions positive...
Rib fractures result in serious morbidity and mortality after trauma. Although there is ongoing debate about surgical rib fixation, it increasingly important for some patients. Minimally invasive techniques fixation are gaining traction within the trauma community. We present an observational experience at our level 1 center with first 10 cases of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) internal fixation. Video-assisted plates especially helpful under scapula, which difficult to access...
<h3>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:</h3> The present prognostic models for open globe injuries have a limited ability to predict visual outcome before comprehensive ophthalmologic examination or operation because they depend on the data derived from and intraoperative findings. purpose of our study was determine specific CT preoperative clinical that can prognosis injury. <h3>MATERIALS METHODS:</h3> We analyzed relationship 29 variables 97 with acuity at 1 month. A prediction model 49 by regression...
Introduction The anterior stove-in chest (ASIC) is a rare form of flail involving bilateral rib or sternal fractures resulting in an unstable wall that caves into the thoracic cavity. Given ASIC has only been described handful case reports, this study sought to review our institution’s experience surgical management injuries. Methods A retrospective patients with was conducted at level I trauma center from 1//2021 3//2023. Information pertaining patient demographics, fracture pattern,...
Genitourinary trauma occurs in 10% of all patients with abdominal trauma, and it is more common men due to the external location male genital organs longer length urethra, which make them susceptible traumatic injuries.1 Concomitant injuries are not uncommon may distract from or delay diagnosis genitourinary injuries, potentially leading complications, loss function, irreversible damage.1 Radiologists play a key role diagnosing expedite appropriate surgical management.
Traumatic esophageal injuries represent less than 10% of traumatic injuries. Penetrating an even smaller but more lethal percent. Esophageal can be cervical, thoracic, or abdominal with decreasing frequency. Cervical and thoracic >80% these are morbid. Morbidity mortality increased delayed identification. Although diagnosis hard, management is similar despite location.We present 3 cases to the segments descriptions on diagnosis, repair, differences.Despite low incidence penetrating injuries,...
