Calf hematoma mimicking thrombophlebitis: sonographic and computed tomographic appearance.

Radiology (1985)

Vishan L. Giyanani Kurt T. Grozinger Amil J. Gerlock Mansour Mirfakhraee H S Husbands

Five patients with calf hematomas presented with signs and symptoms suggesting thrombophlebitis, obscuring the correct diagnosis. Venography showed no venous thrombosis; further diagnostic studies using ultrasound and/or computed tomography provided the correct diagnosis in all patients. Ultrasound showed a hypoechoic mass clearly demarcated from surrounding soft tissue, while computed tomography showed a well-defined mass whose density depended on the age of the hematoma.

Retrieval of intravascular foreign bodies

Journal of Thoracic Imaging (1987)

Amil J. Gerlock Mansour Mirfakhraee

The use of intravascular catheters for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes has resulted in an increased number of foreign body embolizations. The retained foreign body is a potential source of morbidity and mortality. In this communication we describe the different techniques that are used to remove foreign bodies from various locations within the heart or vascular tree. A brief review of the literature concerning the reported complications from retained foreign bodies is made to underline the importance of early percutaneous removal of these fragments.

Combined CT Metrizamide Syringography and Needle Aspiration of Cystic Intramedullary Spinal Cord Lesions

Spine (1987)

Mansour Mirfakhraee Edward C. Benzel Marsha J. Crofford Vishan L. Giyanani Amil J. Gerlock

A modified spinal cord puncture technique that was combined with CT metrizamide syringography for the evaluation of potentially cystic spinal cord lesions has been used in 5 patients. This procedure proved to be safe and efficacious in the preoperative differentiation of cystic neoplasms from syringohydromyelia. It also aided in planning a surgical approach by revealing details of the tumor location and/or syrinx dynamics. Spinal cord puncture associated with CT metrizamide syringography has a role in the diagnosis and therapy of patients with cystic spinal cord lesions.

Internal carotid artery stump angioplasty for the treatment of cerebrovascular occlusive disease

Journal of neurosurgery (1986)

Edward C. Benzel Kevin Sittig Mansour Mirfakhraee

✓ Nineteen patients underwent a total of 21 stump angioplasty procedures for an occluded internal carotid artery. Indications for surgery included the preparation of the donor vessel for a subsequent extracranial-intracranial bypass procedure, the occurrence of emboli to the intracranial vasculature from the external carotid artery circulation, and the association with symptomatic occlusive disease of the external carotid artery accompanying occlusion of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery. The technique utilized and the results obtained in these 19 patients are presented. In select patients, the removal of an occluded internal carotid artery stump via a stump angioplasty is beneficial in preventing the catastrophic sequela of embolic cerebrovascular disease.

MR Imaging of Orbital Blow-Out Fractures

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography (1986)

Craig B. McArdle Eugenio G. Amparo Mansour Mirfakhraee

We report on a case of orbital blow-out fractures involving the medial and inferior walls. In this case conventional multiplanar 8 mm thick sections with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging proved to be more helpful than 1.5 mm axial thin sections with CT in demonstrating the extent of orbital floor herniation of fat. Entrapment of muscle was excluded. Oblique sagittal views were most helpful in evaluating the orbital floor, since the full course of the inferior rectus muscle is seen. Additionally, the optic nerve is seen along its entire length. Masking of intraorbital contents by isodense hemorrhage on CT studies apparently is not a problem with MR imaging if hemorrhage is small or nonacute.

Essentials of diagnostic and interventional angiographic techniques

Amil J. Gerlock Mansour Mirfakhraee

This volume presents coverage of basic angiographic techniques and shows how to get to the point of taking the angiogram, and tells how to avoid pitfalls. Particularly valuable is the information on how to get out of trouble if an error is made while manipulating the catheter.

Membranous Obstruction of the Inferior Vena Cava: An Ultrasound, Computed Tomography, and Inferior Vena Cavogram Image Correlation

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography (1984)

Amil J. Gerlock Vishan L. Giyanani Dennis D. Venable Mansour Mirfakhraee

The purpose of this paper is to present the computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound findings in one case of membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava (IVC). Although the incidence of membranous obstruction of the IVC is rare in the United States, the diagnosis is essential because of the association of this lesion with portal fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Membranous obstruction of the IVC is suggested by the findings of a filling defect within the IVC at the level of either the diaphragm or right atrium. Until more specific CT and ultrasound features are described, an inferior vena cavogram will remain the definitive diagnostic procedure for membranous obstruction of the IVC. Index Terms: Vena cavae, obstruction—Veins, hepatic—Computed tomography—Ultrasound.
