High Index Of Suspicion

Juxta-articular, subperiosteal osteoid osteomas arising around the ankle are unusual. Tumors arising on the neck of the talus commonly produce symptoms mimicking monoarticular arthritis. Patients are usually treated for arthritis or ankle sprain, which often leads to a delay in definitive diagnosis. Here we present a case of osteoid osteoma of neck of talus which was presented as ankle pain. It puzzled us until MRI was done. Diagnostic dilemma and delay can be avoided by high index of suspicion. The patient was treated with open removal of the tumor. We also present brief review of literature about juxta-articular, subperiosteal osteoid osteoma which is uncommon from the typical osteoid osteoma occurring elsewhere in the body.Keywords: juxta-articular, subperiosteal, osteoid osteoma, talus neck

Diagnostic Modalities

Biliary duct hamartomas are benign lesions of intrahepatic bile ducts. Oftentimes an incidental finding on imaging, these lesions can pose a diagnostic dilemma because of their overlapping features with malignant masses. We performed a structured systematic review of literature and identified 139 cases of biliary duct hamartomas. Patient demographics, clinical presentation with key laboratory and imaging findings, diagnostic modalities, management strategies, and outcomes were analyzed and systematically summarized. The systematic review is aimed to help with better understanding of biliary duct hamartomas and its principal features.

Abstract Iliopsoas abscesses are rare in neonates. Clinical presentation of neonates with iliopsoas abscess often mimic other common neonatal illness. Typical clinical features as described in adults may not be observed in neonates. Such abscesses cause a diagnostic dilemma for the clinician, often resulting in a delay in clinical diagnosis and institution of specific treatment. We report a case of a 10-day old term male neonate from community who presented with high grade fever, abdominal distension, left lower limb swelling with limitation of movement and diagnosed to have left sided iliopsoas abscess on ultrasonography. The neonate undergone and extraperitoneal surgical drainage of the abscess along with a course systemic antimicrobial agent. The case is of clinical importance because it describes the presence of a localized abscess in an uncommon location and Methicillin resistant staphylococcus being the causative organism, which represents a rare and potentially life-threatening infection in neonates.
