  • Objective: To describe the radiologic findings of migrating lobar atelectasis of the right lung. Materials and Methods: Chest radiographs (n = 6) and CT scans (n = 5) of six patients with migrating lobar atelectasis of the right lung were analyzed retrospectively. The underlying diseases associated with lobar atelectasis were bronchogenic carcinoma (n = 4), bronchial tuberculosis (n = 1), and tracheobronchial amyloidosis (n = 1). Results: Atelectasis involved the right upper lobe (RUL) (n = 3) and both the RUL and right middle lobe (RML) (n = 3). On supine anteroposterior radiographs (n = 5) and on an erect posteroanterior radiograph (n = 1), the atelectatic lobe(s) occupied the right upper lung zone, with a wedge shape abutting onto the right mediastinal border. On erect posteroanterior radiographs (n = 6), the heavy atelectatic lobe(s) migrated downward, forming a peri- or infrahilar area of increased opacity and obscuring the right cardiac margin. Erect lateral radiographs (n = 4) showed inferior shift of the anterosuperiorly located atelectatic lobe(s) to the anteroinferior portion of the hemithorax. Conclusion: Atelectatic lobe(s) can move within the hemithorax according to changes in a patient s position. This process involves the RUL or both the RUL and RML.

  • Because the tongue is superficially located and the intial manifestation of most diseases occurring there is mucosal change, lingual these lesions can be easily accessed and diagnosed without imaging analysis. Most congenital lesions of the tongue, however, can manifest as a submucosal bulge and be located in a deep portion of that organ such as its base; their true characteristics and extent may be recognized only on cross-sectional images such as those obtained by CT or MRI. In addition, because it is usually difficult to differentiate congenital lesions from other submucosal neoplasms on the basis of imaging findings alone, clinical history and physical examination should always be taken into consideration when interpretating CT and MR images of the tongue. Although the radiologic findings for congenital lesions are nonspecific, CT and MR imaging can play an important role in the diagnostic work-up of these unusual lesions. Delineation of the extent of the tumor, and recognition and understanding of the spectrum of imaging and the pathologic features of these lesions, often help narrow the differential diagnosis.

  • Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristics and management of intrathoracic bronchogenic cysts. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four (n=24) patients with intrathoracic bronchogenic cysts were treated surgically between August 1990 and December 2009 at our institution. Patients were divided into two groups by bronchogenic cyst location: mediastinal or intrapulmonary. Symptoms at diagnosis, radiologic findings, locations, surgical methods, pathological findings, and surgical outcomes were investigated retrospectively from consecutive patient medical records. Results: There were 12 females (50.0%). The mean age was 26.8 (range, 5 to 64) years. The mean follow-up period was 27.3 (range, 1 to 121) months. There were 15 (62.5%) mediastinal and 9 (37.5%) intrapulmonary bronchogenic cysts. Symptoms occurred in 8 patients with mediastinal bronchogenic cysts (53.3%) and 5 patients with intrapulmonary bronchogenic cysts (55.6%) (p=1.000). On computed tomography (CT), 7 patients (46.7%) showed homogenous solid masses in mediastinal bronchogenic cysts and five (55.6%) patients exhibited heterogeneous cystic masses with air-fluid levels in intrapulmonary bronchogenic cystic masses. Open thoracotomy was performed in 17 (70.8%) patients, and video-assisted thoracic surgery was performed in 7 (29.2%) patients. On pathological findings, there were 16 (66.7%) complicated cysts, and in 13 symptomatic patients, 11 (84.6%) patients had complicated cysts. There was no operative death in this study. During the follow-up period, no recurrence was detected. Conclusion: Intrathoracic bronchogenic cysts have a wide variety of clinical characteristics and radiologic findings. Even though some patients do not experience symptoms and signs caused by bronchogenic cysts, serious symptoms and complications may develop with the passage of time.

  • 면역글로불린 G4 (Immunoglobulin G4; 이하 IgG4) 관련 폐 질환은 지난 몇 년간 활발하게 기술되어 온 질환이다. IgG4 관련 폐 질환의 영상의학적 소견은 환자마다 다양하게 알려져 있으나, 질병의 진행에 따른 다양한 영상 소견들을 장기 추적한 연구는 보고되지 않았다. 본 증례 보고에서는 비교적 장기간의 추적을 시행한 2예를 통해, IgG4 관련 폐 질환의 다양한 초기 및 후기 컴퓨터단층촬영 소견들을 고찰하였다. 비교적 초기 CT에서 보였던 결절성 혹은 미만성 간유리음영과 달리, 벌집모양음영이나 견인성 기관지확장증은 후기 소견들로 생각되었다. 고형 결절들은 초기 및 후기에서 모두 보였으나, 새로운 결절의 발생 혹은 기존 결절들의 크기 증가가 질병이 진행함에 따라 나타났다. 소엽간 중격 비후와 종격동 및 폐문 림프절 비대는 질병의 후기에서도 지속적으로 관찰되었다. 이는 IgG4 관련 폐 질환의 정확하고 시기적절한 진단에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

  • 본 연구는 간 초음파 영상을 활용하여 정량적인 측정 분석을 통해 조직 내 감쇠 지수, 조직 내 산란 분포지수 값 분석과 함께 초음파 영상 소견 간 일치도를 알아보고자 하였다. 2022년 8월부터 2022년 10월까지 지방간이 의심되어 간 초음파 검사 처방을 받은 45명의 환자를 대상으로 간 초음파 검사를 시행하였다. 연구결과, 초음파 영상 소견과 조직 내 감쇠 지수 간 일치도 분석 결과 Kappa 값이 0.82(p<0.05)로 두 검사 방법 간 매우 높은 일치도를 보였다. 또한, 초음파 영상 소견과 조직 내 산란 분포 지수 간 일치도 분석 결과에서도 Kappa 값이 0.642(p<0.05)로 두 검사 방법 간 높은 일치도를 보였다. 지방간 예측 시 간 초음파 소견 및 정량적인 초음파 검사 기법인 조직 내 감쇠 지수, 조직 내 산란 분포 지수를 활용한다면 지방간 환자의 진행 정도를 판단할 때 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

  • 혈관염은 혈관벽의 염증을 특징으로 하는 드문 전신 질환으로 간혹 미만성 폐출혈이나 급성사구체신염으로 생명을 위협하기도 한다. 원인을 알 수 없는 일차성 혈관염도 있지만 자가면역 질환이나 약물, 감염, 종양 등 수많은 원인들에 의해 발생하는 이차성 혈관염도 있으며 분류가 복잡하고 명확한 진단검사가 없어 진단에 어려움이 있다. 또한 다양하고 비특이적인 증상과 징후 및 검사 소견을 보여 혈관염의 진단에는 임상양상, 영상 검사, 자가항체 검사, 병리소견 등 여러 가지 결과를 종합하는 것이 필수적이다. 이 종설에서는 혈관염의 분류와 진단에 중요한 증상 및 징후, 특징적으로 폐를 침범하는 대표적인 폐혈관염의 영상 소견과 감별진단, 그리고 새로운 혈관염 분류를 위한 국제적 연구인 Diagnostic and Classification Criteria in Vasculitis에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

  • 이 증례 보고는, 남성 유방에서의 비정형유관증식증 소견에 대한 영상의학적, 병리학적 소견을 담고 있다. 비정형유관증식증은 고위험 병변에 속하며 유방암의 전구 병변으로 잘 알려져 있다. 하지만, 이런 병변이 남성 유방에서 어떠한 임상적 의미를 갖는지는 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 남성 유방은 여성 유방과 달리 유관이 소엽을 구성하지 않기 때문이다. 지금까지 이러한 전구 병변의 영상 소견과 병리학적 소견을 다룬 문헌은 극소수이다. 이 증례 보고를 통해, 우리는 남성 유방에서 유방암 전구 병변의 가능한 영상 및 병리 소견을 제시하고, 문헌고찰을 하고자 한다.

  • Glomus tumors of the lung are rare benign neoplasm, originating from modified smooth muscle cells. The patients are usually presented with no or non-specific symptoms such as cough, dyspnea or hemoptysis. Although surgical treatment is considered as the treatment of choice, the endobronchial therapy can be applied to the patients who are unfit for surgical excision. Herein, we describe two rare cases of glomus tumor originated at large airway (trachea and main bronchus) without respiratory symptoms and review their characteristic radiologic, macroscopic and pathological features.

  • Disorders related to the cervical spine can present a variety of signs and symptoms because of the many tissues and systems associated with this region. Therefore the challenge for the clinician is to organize the information from examination into a treatment plan that addresses the potential influences of the problem. the examination process should gather pertinent information from the patients, relating the pain pattern resulting loss of function. Our patients' X-rays showed absence of any abnormalities except loss of curvature. We therefore concluded that the main cause of posterior neck and shoulder pain was caused by muscle spasm, not cervical disc herniation not degenerative change.

  • In general, the long head of the biceps brachii originates from the superior glenoid labrum and the supraglenoid tubercle, crosses the rotator cuff interval, and extends into the bicipital groove. However, rare anatomic variations of the origins of the long head have been reported in the past. In this report, we review the clinical history, radiologic findings, and arthroscopic identifications of 3 anatomic variants of the biceps tendon long head. As the detection of long head of biceps tendon pathology during preoperative radiologic assessment can be difficult without prior knowledge, surgeons should be aware of such possible anatomic variations.
