Computed tomography of chest wall masses.

The authors argue that CT is superior to other imaging techniques for the examination of the bones and soft tissues of the chest wall. They also note the importance of CT in planning therapy for lesions involving these structures. In support of these theses they present computed tomograms showing 26 different types of lesion involving the chest wall ranging from sternal fracture to malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Malignant neoplasms involving the chest wall by metastasis or direct extension from the breast, lung or mediastinum are emphasized.

Symphyseal and sacroiliac joint pain associated with pubic symphysis instability.

Fifty patients presenting with lumbosacral and inguinal pain were examined by routine clinical radiographic and electromyographic evaluations. All were without antecedent history of major pelvic trauma or spinal surgery but demonstrated evidence of pubic symphysis instability. Slip between the pubic rami in excess of 2 mm could be demonstrated in each with alternate leg weight bearing. Asymmetry of hip mobility on the symptomatic side with a reduction in abduction and external rotation was present in 20 patients. An approach to treatment of pain associated with pubic symphyseal and associated sacroiliac joint instability is described, combining both intraarticular steroids, lumbosacral supports and physical therapy modalities.
