Contusion of arteries

Masquerading pneumonia--pulmonary contusion.

Pneumonia is diagnosed and treated with symptoms of fever, cough, expectoration and chest X ray showing evidence of consolidation. When a pattern of opacification does not fit into segmental or lobar pattern, reevaluation is essential. We report a case of 18 yr old boy with symptoms of respiratory infection, and X ray diagnosis suggestive of infective consolidation which turned out to be a case...

Concrete induced cardiac contusion.

A previously fit 22 year old man was struck in the chest by a concrete block dropped through the windscreen of his car while he was driving on the motorway. He suffered extensive chest wall trauma and lung contusion, which subsequently precipitated acute respiratory distress. On admission ECG showed right bundle branch block and left axis deviation. Three days later QRS duration was normal but ...

Bone contusion progression from traumatic knee injury: association of rate of contusion resolution with injury severity

BACKGROUND Bone contusions are frequently encountered in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation of knee anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Their role as indicators of injury severity remains unclear, primarily due to indeterminate levels of joint injury forces and to a lack of preinjury imaging. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to 1) quantify bone contusion pathogenesis foll...
