79-year-old man with history of head and neck cancer status post chemotherapy and radiation, now with right mandible draining cutaneous fistula with bone exposure. Evaluate for osteomyelitis. Again seen is a plate and screw device spanning a large defect of the right mandibular body. There is scalloping along the alveolar ridge of the remainder of the right mandibular body that appears more prominent on the current study than on the prior study; however I cannot tell if this represents true progression of erosion or simply slight differences of technique/positioning. The orientation of the third most medial screw has changed, and it no longer appears to reside within the bone. The mandibular angle and lateral screws appear similar to those seen on the prior study. The patient is edentulous.
Scalloping of the alveolar ridge of the remainder of the right mandibular body along with change in orientation of one of the screws may reflect osteomyelitis, but this is equivocal. This could be further evaluated with CT, if clinically warranted.

Foul-smelling discharge from wound. Evaluate for osteomyelitis. Since the prior study, the first and second toes have been amputated. There is a large soft tissue defect distal to the heads of the first and second metatarsals. There is scalloping of the distal aspect of the head of the first metatarsal and mild flattening of the 2nd metatarsal head, but I cannot tell if this is due to osteomyelitis or prior surgery. Mild deformities of the base of the fifth metatarsal and distal fibula likely represent old healed fractures. Note is made of arterial calcifications in the soft tissues.
Postoperative changes of first and second toe amputation with a large wound distal to the first and second metatarsal heads. Scalloping of the first metatarsal head and mild flattening of the 2nd metatarsal head may simply represent additional postoperative changes although I cannot exclude the possibility of osteomyelitis. If further imaging evaluation is clinically warranted, MRI may be considered.

Ms. Stone is a 61 year old female with biopsy proven IDC in the right breast. She presents today for needle localization prior to surgery. Targeted right breast ultrasound was performed to re-identify the biopsy proven malignancy in the right lateral breast. However, no sonographic correlate was seen corresponding to the known malignancy. As a result, a decision to proceed with wire localization using mammographic guidance was made.WIRE LOCALIZATION USING MAMMOGRAPHIC GUIDANCE: On review of the prior studies, a spiculated asymmetry is present in the right lateral breast, along with a percutaneously placed ribbon clip. This will be the target for today's needle localization via mammographic guidance. Target spiculated asymmetry is located in the right breast in the outer region located posteriorly at 9 o’clock. The procedure, risks including bleeding, mistargeting and infection, and benefits of needle-wire localization were discussed with the patient. Questions were answered. Consent was obtained both verbally and in writing. The time out form was completed to confirm patient identity and site of procedure. The right breast was placed in an alphanumeric grid using lateral to medial approach. When the target was positioned in the aperture of the grid, the skin was cleansed with chlorhexidine. Local anesthesia was obtained using 2% Lidocaine. Using coordinates from the grid, a 7 cm Kopans needle was placed through the lesion. On orthogonal mammography, adequate positioning of the needle was confirmed after adjusting depth so the needle tip was approximately 2cm deep to the center of the target. A spring wire was then deployed. Repeat two view orthogonal mammograms reveal the spring wire to be in excellent position. The mammogram was annotated and reviewed with Dr. Jaskowiak prior to the patient's procedure. Patient tolerated the procedure well and was sent to the holding area in stable condition. Dr. Sheth performed the procedure under direct supervision of Dr. Schacht, who was present during the procedure at all times.Orthogonal digital specimen radiographs revealed distortion, the clip, the mass and spring wire to be within the specimen. Spiculation extending peripherally were discussed with Dr. Jasowiak and felt to potentially represent fibrosis, given that the mass is central in the specimen.

There is edema within the lateral femoral condyle more anteriorly with mild depression of the overlying articular surface compatible with a mild impaction fracture. There is also edema within the posterior aspect of the medial tibial plateau with slight overlying depression of the articular surface, perhaps representing a "countercoup" impaction fracture. Minimal edema is noted within the medial femoral condyle and fibular styloid. We see no fluid-filled articular cartilage defect.LIGAMENTS: There is a full-thickness midsubstance tear of the anterior cruciate ligament.

Compare hemorrhage Again seen is a large intraparenchymal hematoma measuring 4.6x 3.6 x 3.4 cm centered at the left insula and frontoparietal operculum. Again seen is hematocrit effect. There is mild surrounding edema and mass effect with partial effacement of the left lateral ventricle, similar to prior. Minimal rightward midline shift. No uncal herniation. No hydrocephalus. No other focus of hemorrhage is seen.There is a small lytic lesion involving the right parietal calvarium with punctate foci of hyperdensity and extra-axial extension with calcifications. Lytic lucency in the left frontal bone is favored to represent a hemangioma, with additional lucencies at the vertex bilaterally at the vertex compatible with arachnoid granulations. The visualized portions of the paranasal sinuses are clear. Mastoid air cells are clear.
1. Compared to most recent CT from 3/12/2015, no significant change in size of intraparenchymal hematoma centered at the left frontal operculum. There is local mass effect without significant midline shift or uncal herniation. There is hematocrit effect which may be related to coagulopathy/anticoagulant use. 2. Right parietal lytic calvarial lesion with extra-axial extension and calcification is favored to represent a benign etiology such as hemangioma or meningioma and unchanged since 2/10/2015. Comparison with more remote prior studies would be helpful if available.
