[Imaging of osteoarticular diseases of the anterior chest wall].

The purpose of this paper is to present a pictorial display of osseous and articular lesions of the anterior chest wall. The role of CT and MR imaging in such disorders is emphasized. Imaging of the anterior thoracic wall by plain films is particularly difficult. However numerous disorders may be encountered. They include inflammatory hyperostosis and sclerosis of the clavicle and the sternum, condensing osteitis and post-traumatic osteolysis of the clavicle, radiation osteitis of the sternum and the ribs, septic arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint, primary and secondary tumors of the sternum and the ribs. We illustrate a spectrum of such lesions in which CT and MR imaging provides acute evaluation of both soft tissue and bone details.

[Multiple finger geodes in children].

Three pediatric patients with multiple geodes in the fingers are reported. This condition occurs mainly between one and three years and at seven years of age and is more common in winter. Affected fingers are swollen. Roentgenograms disclose several small lucent defects which are usually located in the middle phalanx. Several fingers are usually involved. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate is increased in virtually every case. Resolution occurs spontaneously within a few weeks or months. There is no tendency towards recurrence. Although the condition is inflammatory, exposure to cold is probably a precipitating factor.

[Computerized tomography in the diagnosis of craniomandibular disorders: radiological-surgical comparison].

Among 500 C.T. scan of temporomandibular joint (T.M.J.), examined since 1982 by bilateral direct sagittal method (Department of Radiology, Pr. A. TREHEUX, C.H.U. Nancy-Brabois), the authors have retained 14 cases of patients with symptoms related to dysfunction of the T.M.J. cured by surgery (Department of Maxillo Facial Surgery, Pr. STRICKER, C.H.U. Nancy). These cases were chosen among hundred patients annually examined by C.T. scan, for various diseases (dysfunctions of the T.M.J., traumatisms, infections, inflammatory diseases...). These correlations between radiology and surgery about 26 T.M.J. (2 patients underwent surgery only on one side) were: an accuracy with surgical findings for 19 cases (76%); in 6 cases (23%), a meniscus anteriorly displaced, non detected by C.T. scan was found by surgery; 2 cases of meniscus perforations (one in the frontal plane, the other sagittal) were surgical findings; in 1 case, a displacement was under-valued by C.T. scan; in 3 cases, arthrosic changes (1 case of REITER syndroma) were characterized by C.T. scan. The authors emphasize the value and the limits of evaluation of the internal derangements of the T.M.J. with direct sagittal C.T.

[The CT scanner and the temporomandibular joint. Anatomo-radiologic comparisons. Apropos of 14 cases of algodysfunctional of the manducator system].

Among 500 CT scan of temporomandibular joint (TMJ), examined since 1982 by bilateral direct sagittal method (Department of Radiology, Pr. A. TREHEUX, CHU Nancy-Brabois), the authors have retained 14 cases of patients with symptoms related to TMJ's dysfunction cured by surgery (Department of Maxillo Facial Surgery, Pr STRICKER, CHU Nancy). These cases were chosen among hundred patients annually examined by CT scan, for various diseases (TMJ's dysfunctions, traumatisms, infections, inflammatory diseases...). These correlations between radiology and surgery about 26 TMJ (2 patients underwent surgery only on one side) were: an accuracy with surgical findings for 19 cases (76%); in 6 cases (23%), a meniscus anteriorly displaced, non detected by CT scan was found by surgery; 2 cases of meniscus perforations (one in the frontal plane, the other sagittal) were surgical findings; in 1 case, a displacement was under-valued by CT scan; in 3 cases, arthrosic changes (1 case of Reiter syndrome), were characterized by CT scan. The authors emphasize the value and the limits of evaluation of the internal derangements of the TMJ with direct sagittal CT.

[The scanner and the temporomandibular joint; anatomic-radiologic comparisons. Apropos of 26 cases of masticatory apparatus pain-dysfunction syndrome].

Among 500 CT scan of temporomandibular joint (TMJ), examined since 1982 by bilateral direct sagittal method (Department of Radiology, Pr. A. Treheux, C.H.U. Nancy-Brabois), the authors have retained 14 cases of patients with symptoms related to TMJ's dysfunction cured by surgery (Department of Maxillo Facial Surgery, Pr. Stricker, C.H.U. Nancy). These cases were chosen among a hundred of patients annually examined by CT scan, for various diseases (TMJ's dysfunctions, traumatisms, infections, inflammatory diseases...) These correlations between radiology and surgery about 26 TMJ (2 patients underwent surgery only on one side) were: an accuracy with surgical findings for 19 cases (76%); in 6 cases (23%), a meniscus anteriorly displaced, non detected by CT scan was found by surgery; 2 cases of meniscus perforations (one in the frontal plane, the other sagittal) were surgical findings; in 1 case, a displacement was under-valued by CT scan; in 3 cases, arthrotic changes (1 case of Reiter syndrome) were characterized by CT scan. The authors emphasize the value and the limits of evaluation of the internal derangements of the TMJ with direct sagittal CT.

[Study of the small bowel and mesentery in Crohn's disease: comparison of ultrasonics, x-ray computed tomography and small bowel transit in 18 patients].

The advantages of tomodensitometry and ultrasonography were compared with those of small bowel series in Crohn's disease of the small bowel in 18 patients. These two examinations give results which are inferior to those of small bowel series, for the positive diagnosis and the evaluation of the intraluminal extension of the disease, since their sensitivity was only 60 p. cent in identifying the pathological loop. On the contrary, their advantage lies in the evaluation of the intraluminal extension of the disease, which was correctly demonstrated with ultrasonography in 22 p. cent of cases, and tomodensitometry in 45 p. cent. This confirms the supplementary value of these two examinations in the study of the mesenteric involvement of the disease, screening of abscesses, and makes desirable a prospective evaluation of the influence of mesenteric abnormalities on the prognosis and surgical indications.
