[35-year old male with fever and round mass of the liver].

A 35 year old male suffered from fever till 39 degrees C and malaise since 6 months; infectious or neoplastic causes have been ruled out. Ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic lesion of 75 mm diameter in the liver. The histologic examination of the needle biopsy showed an inflammatory process, and the final diagnosis was inflammatory pseudotumor. EBV specific LMP-1 protein was detected within the tumor immunohistochemically. A liver segment resection was performed, and the patient has been well and without fever since then for 18 months. Inflammatory pseudotumor is a rare but important differential diagnosis in cases of hypoechoic liver lesions associated by fever, if there is no abscess or malignancy. The diagnosis must be confirmed histologically, because imaging techniques cannot reliably classify the lesion.

[Conventional diagnosis of carpal luxation and instability].

The recognition of ligament disruption in carpal dislocation and the early diagnosis of carpal instability have had implications for the therapy since the evolution of differentiated surgical treatment concepts including ligament reconstruction. Plain radiography and the carpal instability series are helpful in the detection of ligament disruption. The radiological analysis is based on the configuration and arrangement of the carpals, the setting of their axes, and the detection of intercarpal gaps. Mechanisms and characteristic radiological findings in the different types of carpal dislocation and instability (scapholunate dissociation, palmar or dorsal intercalated segment instability) are demonstrated in relation to physiological appearance, and the value of conventional films in the diagnosis of carpal dislocation and instability is discussed.
