Abstract

FIVE CASES OF INTESTINAL ATRESIA IN THREE FAMILIES WHO HAD COMMon ancestors are reported. Consanguinity was present in two of the sibships. The lesions were located at multiple sites of the gastrointestinal tract, from the stomach to the anal margin. Intraluminal calcifications were also observed in the intestine. The authors suggest that this well-delineated congenital defect has an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance.

Calcific myonecrosis and tenosynovitis: sonographic findings with correlative imaging.

We report the sonographic appearance of a case of calcific myonecrosis and tenosynovitis with correlative plain radiography and CT findings. Calcific myonecrosis is a rare complication of previous trauma that presents as a tumor-like calcified mass years after an initial injury, most commonly affecting the anterior compartment of the lower leg. Although the clinical, radiographic, and MRI features of calcific myonecrosis have been well described, to our knowledge the sonographic appearance has not been reported previously in the literature.
