These authors present MR images in 7 patients who developed enhancing lesions after endovascular therapy for intracranial aneurysms, 3 of which were symptomatic. The number of lesions increased in 2, was stable in 1, decreased in 3, and disappeared in 1 patient. The authorsput forward that the imaging and clinical characteristics suggested a foreign body reaction. They found no correlation to a specific device, but a possible source may be the generic hydrophilic coating.

Twenty-four patients with intracranial hypotension received CT myelography as well asintrathecal gadolinium MR myelography. Comparisons demonstrated a higher rate of leak detection with intrathecal gadolinium MR myelography. Although intrathecal gadolinium is an FDA off-label use, all patients tolerated the medication without evidence of complications.

After retrospectively analyzing MR images of 47 patients with proven orbital lymphoproliferative disease, the authors propose that ill-defined lesion margins suggest lymphoma whereas the presence of accompanying sinusitis and intralesional flow voids suggest benign lymphoproliferative disease. Lower ADC and contrast enhancement also suggest lymphoma.

MR, FDG-PET, and CT images from 8 patients with proven spinal findings of hyperplastic hematopoietic bone marrow were compared with those of 24 patients with spinal metastases. If a lesion was isointense to hyperintense to normal-appearing marrow on MR imaging or had a maximum standard uptake value of >3.6, the lesion was metastatic. A normal appearance on CT or bone scintigraphy excluded metastasis.

Safety and efficacy of intra-arterial treatment using the AmplatzGooseNeck device in acute anterior circulation strokes were assessed in 156 patients. High recanalization rates were obtained with the AmplatzGooseNeck snare without any device-related complications. Favorable outcome, mortality, and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage were comparable with results of newer embolectomy devices.

The authors assessed patterns of skull fractures that could play a role in the development of delayed epidural hematoma. All patients who developed a delayed epidural hematoma had a contralateral calvarial fracture on preoperative CT. The contralateral calvarial fracture had perfect sensitivity (100%) for subsequent development of delayed epidural hematoma and a contralateral calvarial fracture involving 2 or more bone plates was particularly significant.
