Pain, limited range of motion. Evaluate right hip for chronic dislocation. Prior total knee arthroplasty. Left knee pain and stiffness. Two views of the right hip are provided. There is superolateral dislocation of the femoral component of the patient's total hip arthroplasty relative to the acetabular component.The AP view the pelvis shows the aforementioned right total hip arthroplasty dislocation.

Male 30 years old Reason: r/o fracture History: pain, swelling, limited mobility. We have 3 views of the right index finger. The proximal interphalangeal joint is held in slight flexion. There is soft tissue swelling, particularly along the dorsal aspect of the proximal interphalangeal joint. There is questionable disruption of the dorsal cortex of the head of the proximal phalanx, which may represent a fracture fragment donor site, but this is equivocal. Tiny densities within the soft tissues dorsal to the head/neck of the proximal phalanx could represent tiny fracture fragments or possibly small foreign bodies. A couple additional densities are seen dorsal to the distal diaphysis of the proximal phalanx which may represent small additional foreign bodies.
Soft tissue swelling dorsal to the head and neck of the proximal phalanx with tiny densities that may represent a combination of fracture fragments and foreign bodies. Mild cortical irregularity along the dorsal aspect of the head of the proximal phalanx could conceivably represent a donor site, although we cannot entirely exclude the possibility of an early infection if there is an overlying wound.

Ms. Williams is a 34 year-old female with a personal history of left breast lumpectomy in February 2013 for triple negative IDC. Patient did not receive any chemotherapy or radiation therapy. She had a recent MRI that showed linear non-mass-enhancement extending anterior to the lumpectomy site. She presents today for MR-guided biopsy of that area. On subtraction images, linear non-mass-enhancement was identified in the left upper outer breast, extending anterior to the known lumpectomy site. This was chosen as the target.PROCEDURE:Coordinates of the central portion of the biopsy target were determined on the monitor. The approach was from lateral to medial direction. Overlying skin was cleansed with chlorhexidine and superficial and deep anesthesia were obtained with lidocaine. A 9-gauge introducer with stylet was advanced to the target lesion. Subsequent MR images confirmed satisfactory position of the tip of the introducer prior to the biopsy. A 9-gauge needle was then advanced to the target lesion and biopsy was performed using a Suros vacuum assisted device. A total of 6 cores were obtained. Post procedural MR images show a small hematoma at the biopsy site. Linear non-mass enhancement continued to be present just posterior to the needle trough. As a result, the needle was slightly withdrawn and 4 additional cores were obtained. A total of 10 cores were obtained and they were sent to Pathology with an accompanying history sheet. An ATEC clip was placed into the center of the target.Following the removal of the grid, pressure was held at the biopsy site until bleeding subsided. The skin wound was closed with a Steri-Strip and pressure bandage and ice pack were applied to the biopsy site.Specimen radiograph was obtained for documentation. No calcifications were seen in the specimen radiograph.The patient tolerated this procedure well and underwent a left unilateral mammogram CC and ML views to locate the percutaneously placed clip. The clip is placed at the 2 o'clock position with no evidence of any complications due to the procedure. The patient tolerated this procedure well and left the radiology suite in stable condition. The MR procedure was performed by Dr. Sheth under direct supervision of Dr. Abe who was present throughout the procedure.
Successful MR guided core needle biopsy of the left breast 2 o'clock at the site of linear non-mass enhancement with successful clip placement. BIRADS: 4 - Suspicious Abnormality.RECOMMENDATION: T - Take Appropriate Action - No Letter.
