There is a right calvarial burr hole again seen with resolution of previously seen minimal pneumocephalus. A clip in the right medial temporal lobe is again identified. There is diffuse hypoattenuation in the white matter of the right temporal lobe in a vasogenic pattern extending into the insula and operculum without significant change. There is also extensive hypoattenuation involving the white matter in the right frontal lobe with sparing of the cortex, similar in extent to the most recent exam. There is also extension across midline via the genu of the corpus callosum which appears significantly thickened and hypodense, especially compared to baseline exam. For example, the genu of the corpus callosum now measures 2.1-cm AP, compared to prior MR measurement of 1.1-cm.There is no acute intracranial hemorrhage or worsening mass effect. There is persistent mild mass effect on the right lateral ventricle. There is no significant midline shift. An old right cerebellar lacunar infarct is again seen. There are mild chronic microvascular ischemic changes similar to prior exam. There are atherosclerotic calcifications in the bilateral cavernous carotid arteries and intracranial vertebral arteries. There is mild bilateral sphenoid sinus mucosal thickening. There is a nasogastric tube partly imaged.
1. Postsurgical findings from right temporal lobe biopsy again seen with resolution of minimal pneumocephalus.2. Diffuse vasogenic pattern of abnormal low density in the right frontal and temporal lobes without significant change. No acute intracranial hemorrhage or worsening mass effect. However, comparing to baseline exam, there has been progression of abnormality across the genu of the corpus callosum, which is now significantly thickened and hypodense. Given the short interval time for this change, this is favored more to represent an inflammatory process including acute demyelination especially given prior areas of diffusion restriction, less likely infection, rather than previous proposed neoplasm.I personally reviewed the Images and/or procedure with the Resident/Fellow and agree with this report.

There is a transition point involving the mid third portion of the duodenum where the SMA traverses anteriorly (series 3/65) with the distal duodenum and proximal jejunum decompressed. This constellation of findings raises the question of SMA syndrome as the cause of the gastric distention.Mid to distal small bowel loops are mildly dilated diffusely. Contrast opacifies all of the small bowel through the proximal colon. A loop of distal small bowel in the left lower quadrant is slightly more focally dilated with a transition point, suggesting adhesive disease causing mild grade partial obstruction of this loop (coronal series 80220/56).The colon is diffusely dilated and filled with fluid and air with transition point involving the proximal sigmoid colon immediately overlying the left psoas muscle (series 3/85), suggesting adhesive disease as the cause. This transition point is immediately posterior to the above-described small bowel transition point. The distal sigmoid colon and the rectum are relatively decompressed, but there is fluid and air seen within them, suggesting moderate grade partial obstruction. The transition point is proximal to a sigmorectal bowel anastomosis.Mild ascites raises the question of obstructive ischemia.

Small air seen in pelvis may be located in rectum or underdistended bladder, correlate with clinical history for recent intervention. Additional mediastinal/thoracic and intra-abdominal postprocedural sequela. Left basilar atelectasis/consolidation and pleural effusion. Multilevel degenerative changes of spine.
Relative paucity of bowel gas, may reflect fluid containing bowel, small gas seen in right hemiabdomen as above.Left basilar atelectasis/consolidation and pleural effusion.
Generate impression based on findings.
Marked skin thickening of the medial posterior upper thigh. There are foci of air within the posterior thickened skin (Series 80516, image 56 and 67). Extensive subcutaneous edema extends through the entire right lower extremity. A poorly organized fluid collection is present within the subcutaneous fat of the medial upper thigh measuring 4.3 x 1.2 cm (series 80516, image 67), which could represent phlegmon or early abscess formation. No gas is present within the deep tissues of the thigh or lower extremities. No osseous erosions are present to suggest osteomyelitis. Partially visualized heterogeneous soft tissue within the anterior pelvis may represent bowel, however intra-abdominal pathology cannot be excluded.
1.Findings are most consistent with extensive cellulitis and possible early abscess formation.2.Partially visualized heterogeneous soft tissue collection within the anterior pelvis may represent bowel, however if there is clinical concern for intra-abdominal pathology abdominal CT is recommended.
