A case of calcific tendinitis of the gluteus medius is presented. This report describes a patient with a history of breast cancer who had the combination of amorphous calcifications in the gluteus medius tendon and the MR finding of conspicuous bone marrow edema in the adjacent greater trochanter, prompting concern for metastatic disease. We present images from radiography, bone scanning, CT, and MR imaging. The unusual combination of findings in these studies should be considered conclusive for calcific tendinitis, and should not be confused with malignancy.
The current knowledge of the history, clinical course, diagnosis and treatment of Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) are summarized in this article.
Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS), described just under 40 years ago, is a rare, autosomal-recessive disorder usually manifest in infancy and characterized by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, short stature, and bone marrow dysfunction. Additional clinical features include metaphyseal dysostosis, epiphyseal dysplasia, immune dysfunction, liver disease, growth failure, renal tubular defects, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and psychomotor retardation. Hematological manifestations other than neutropenia include anemia, raised fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels, thrombocytopenia, impaired neutrophil chemotaxis, and aplastic anemia; as with other constitutional bone marrow failure syndromes, there is a predilection to malignant myeloid transformation. No unifying pathogenetic mechanism(s) has yet been shown to be responsible for SDS, although new insights into the molecular, genetic, and cellular basis of this rare disease have recently been described.
