Osteolytic lesions seen on plain radiographs can be caused by various disorders of the bones such as simple bone cyst, aneurysmal bone cyst, plasmacytoma, giant cell tumor, eosinophilic granuloma and tuberculosis. We studied prospectively Tc-99m-methylene diphosphonate bone scan findings in osteolytic lesions seen radiologically and followed them to histopathology. Interestingly, the scans in t...

متن کاملCerebral arterial lesions resulting from inflammatory emboli.
In order to study the effects of septic embolism on the brain, silicone rubber emboli of various types were injected into the carotid arteries of 35 dogs. Pathologic and angiographic studies were performed to assess the resultant arterial and parenchymal lesions. Pure silicone rubber emboli (14 dogs) produced occasional intra-arterial thrombosis but no arteritis. Sterile and bacterially contami...
