Magnetic resonance imaging and diffusion-weighted imaging changes after hypoglycemic coma.

The authors report a case of severe hypoglycemic encephalopathy in an elderly patient. The magnetic resonance images showed bilateral cortical signal changes and basal ganglia lesions, which spared the thalami. The lesions were bright on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery and diffusion-weighted images and dark on the apparent diffusion coefficient map, being more conspicuous on the diffusion-weighted images than on the fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. A literature review of the imaging features and pathophysiological mechanism in comparison with those of hypoxic ischemic injury is discussed.

Primary amyloidoma of the cervical spine.

Primary solitary amyloidoma of the spine is a disease characterized by localized deposits of amyloid. We describe and illustrate the radiologic appearance of primary solitary amyloidoma of the spine on plain radiographs, CT scans, and MR images. The imaging findings revealed features of a nonspecific soft-tissue mass with calcifications. Epidural extension of the amyloidoma caused spinal cord compression.

Parosteal lipoma with hyperostosis.

A case of parosteal lipoma of the femur combined with hyperostosis is presented. The parosteal lipoma is a rare benign tumor containing adipose tissue and is intimately related to the periosteum. We report the MRI features and correlative pathologic findings of a parosteal lipoma. The MRI technique is useful for evaluating the relationship between the periosteum and the lipoma.

Cemento-ossifying fibroma presenting as a mass of the parapharyngeal and masticator space.

We report a case of cemento-ossifying fibroma that presented as a large extraosseous mass in the masticator and parapharyngeal space. CT scanning and MR imaging showed a large extraosseous mass with central conglomerated, well-matured ossified nodules and fatty marrow. The central matured ossified nodules were of low density on CT scans and high signal intensity on T1- and T2-weighted MR images. Multiplanar reformatted CT scans revealed the origin of the mass to be at the extraction site of the right lower second molar tooth.
