Evaluation of patients after penetrating neck injury has evolved over time. Previously, location of injury and symptoms were used to determine management. The contemporary management of penetrating neck injuries relies on physical examination. Patients with hard signs of vascular or aerodigestive tract injury require immediate operation, regardless of location of injury. Those with no signs can...
متن کاملMultidetector computed tomographic angiography imaging of pentalogy of Cantrell.
A 4-day-old female mildly cyanotic neonate presented clinically with ventral herniation of the heart to the anterior abdominal wall and umbilical defect containing bowel loop (Figure [A] and Movie I in the online-only Data Supplement), raising suspicion of pentalogy of Cantrell.

متن کاملPulmonary sequestration diagnosed by multidetector computed tomographic angiography.
A 58-year-old man presented with persistent lung mass (Fig. 1). Pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed with multidetector CT angiography (MDCT) (Fig. 2). Advantages of MDCT over conventional angiography include its non-invasive nature, improved resolution and delineation of vasculature, 3D renderings, shorter acquisition time, and less exposure to radiation. Fig. 1. Computed tomography of the ch...
متن کاملSinonasal Anatomical Variations: A Multidetector Computed Tomographic Study
Background and Aim: The paranasal sinuses are known for their complex anatomy and significant difference in size and shape. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of anatomical variations of the paranasal sinuses in computed tomography (CT). Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, patients over 18 years of age, who had undergone CT imaging in a private clinic, were screened...
متن کاملPenetrating neck injuries: helical CT angiography for initial evaluation.
PURPOSE To report an experience with helical computed tomographic (CT) angiography as the initial procedure to rule out arterial lesions caused by penetrating neck injuries. MATERIALS AND METHODS During 27 months, 175 patients were referred for helical CT angiography of the neck because of clinical suspicion of arterial injuries. The protocol included a 100-mL bolus of nonionic contrast mater...
