We present a case of a 78 year-old woman who was operated for mass of the left posterior chest. Histologically, the excised tumor was consistent with extraskeletal osteosarcoma. She was referred to the nuclear medicine department for a bone scan. The Tc -HDP scintigraphy exhibited multiple focal round areas of increased tracer uptake in soft tissue. This was proved to be multiple metastasis in ...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014204311 DESCRIPTION Vascular malformations (VMs) are congenital abnormalities of aberrant angiogenesis with reported prevalence of 1.2–1.5%. VMs can be either high flow (eg, arteriovenous malformation (AVM) or arteriovenous fistula (AVF)) or low flow (eg, capillary, venous, l...

Hip dislocation occurs when the femur does not break and the force is transmitted towards the hip joint leading to a posterior dislocation of the femoral head with or without posterior acetabular fracture. We present the case of a 26 year old patient involved in motor vehicle accident. Clinical and imaging (radiography, CT) examination revealed an intertrochanteric fracture associated with ipsi...

Case report of a posterior pharyngeal wall schwannoma in a 23-year-old female. Hypopharyngeal schwannoma is rare entities and at the time of writing we could find only 10 other cases reported worldwide and this is the eleventh. Complete excision was done intraorally and there is no recurrence after 1 year.

the aim of this study was to assess different surgical approaches of supracondylar fracture in 31 children.the surgical approches consisted of anteromedial (16 cases),posterior (13 cases) and anterolateral (2 cases). the rate of persistent complications was higher in the posterior approach.the most common complication eas soft tissue atrophy in posterior of elbow (69%) followed by limitation of...

Intrauterine Contraceptive Devices (IUCD) are known to be associated with many complications; however, uterine perforation migration into adjacent soft tissue is rarely observed. The authors report a rare case of 31-year-old full-term pregnant female who presented in labour and was posted for Lower Segment Caesarean Section (LSCS) view history LSCS. Dense adhesions were noticed between the post...

Frontal sinus fractures are of surgical importance because of the microbial flora covering the frontal air sinus and it's proximity with the duramater and brain. There is an increased risk of meningitis when fracture of the posterior wall of the frontal sinus is associated with a dural tear. In this condition, communication occurs between the contaminated space of the air sinus and the intr...

we first describe how to “fuzzify” the estimated binary columns to create a [0,1]-valued column. werefer to this [0,1] -valued column as the soft segmentation column of the noisy spectrogram column.similarly to the collection of soft segmentation columns as the soft segmentation image, or simply asthe soft segmentation. the band-dependent posterior probability that the hard segmentation columnv...
