Computed tomography of neuroblastic tumors in children.

Computed tomography (CT) was performed in 16 children with neuroblastic tumors. CT aided significantly in the accurate preoperative delineation of tumor extent and in the demonstration of tumor features not visualized by conventional radiography. CT provided excellent postoperative follow-up, particularly in assessing the effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The results of CT, ultrasound, radionuclide imaging, and conventional radiography have been compared.

Computer assisted tomography of urachal abnormalities.

Three examples of urachal abnormalities are presented: two urachal cysts and one urachal carcinoma. These cases demonstrate the value of computed tomography in detecting urachal abnormalities, particularly if there is no communication between the bladder and the urachal remnant. The embryonic development of the bladder is discussed, particularly with reference to the development of urachal abnormalities.

Computed tomography in Caroli's disease.

Two cases of Caroli's disease are presented in which the diagnosis could be made by computed tomography without the use of invasive modalities. The findings in computed tomography in Caroli's disease are outlined.

CT scanning in septic sacroiliac arthritis or periarticular osteomyelitis.

Two cases are presented which demonstrate the utility of CT scanning in the evaluation of patients with septic sacroiliitis. The importance of making an early diagnosis in such patients is noted and the roles of various other modalities are related to that of CT scanning.

Computed tomographic demonstration of gas collections simulating infection.

Two cases of computed tomographic demonstration of gas collections simulating gas forming organism infection are presented in patients shown subsequently not to be infected--the air resulting from tissue necrosis. These observations are helpful in guiding conservative management of certain patients in the appropriate clinical setting.

Bullous change by CT heralding metastatic sarcoma.

The association of spontaneous pneumothorax with metastatic osteosarcoma is well known. Small blebs and bullous change can be easily detected in the lungs by computed tomography. In patients with known sarcomas, blebs and bullae may appear as the first or early manifestation of metastatic disease (or concurrent with the disease) as illustrated by the three patients presented here with three different types of sarcomas. The literature has been reviewed as to the etiology of spontaneous pneumothoraces occurring in metastatic sarcomas and the relationship of bleb and bullae formation to these spontaneous pneumothoraces is discussed.
