Bizarre Parosteal Osteochondromatous Proliferation (BPOP) of the Hand
Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP), or Nora lesion, is a rare benign condition that can mimic other pathologies. A case is described of a 66‑year‑old man with a slowly enlarging nodule on his finger over five years. Imaging showed a parosteal lesion without continuity with…

An Aggressive but Not Malignant Tumor of the Pediatric Hip
Teaching point: Desmoid‑type fibromatosis is a rare soft tissue tumor mimicking typical aggressive childhood malignancies, but with inability to metastasize, and with an essential role for imaging for diagnosis and therapeutic strategies.

Chronic Ketamine Toxicity Involving both Urinary and Hepatobiliary Systems
Chronic ketamine abuse is a well‑recognized cause of lower urinary tract injury. Hepatobiliary manifestations are less frequently reported. A case is presented of concomitant ketamine‑induced uropathy and cholangiopathy in a young adult. This underscores the importance of considering ketamine…

Chronic Calcaneal Osteomyelitis Due to a Retained Coral Fragment: An Unusual Cause of Heel Pain
We report a case of calcaneal osteomyelitis caused by a retained foreign body—a coral fragment. The patient presented with nonspecific heel pain 12 years after the initial injury. MRI revealed an intraosseous lesion demonstrating the ‘penumbra’ sign, consistent with chronic osteomyelitis and…

Malakoplakia of the Kidney Transplant
Teaching point: Malakoplakia is a rare but clinically significant condition in immunocompromised patients and in these patients to be included in the differential diagnosis to distinguish this pseudotumoral process in a renal graft from malignant entities such as renal cell carcinoma and…

Safety, Efficacy, and Intermediate‑Term Outcomes of CT‑Guided Cryoablation of T1 Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Retrospective Single‑Center Study
Objectives: To assess the safety, efficacy, and mid‑term clinical and radiological outcomes of computerized tomography (CT)‑guided cryoablation of malignant T1 renal lesions. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) under CT guidance between January 2018 and…

Dirofilaria repens Parasite: Review with Emphasis on Ultrasound Findings with Looking for Worm Mobility
Human dirofilariasis is caused by infection with a parasite relatively common in dogs. Occasional transmission of larvae to humans occurs via an insect bite and development of an immature worm at the bite site. The disease, once confined to southern Europe, is becoming increasingly widespread…

A Case of Metastatic Pulmonary Calcification
Pulmonary calcifications are a frequent phenomenon with a wide range of etiology. They are divided into two categories: metastatic and dystrophic pulmonary calcification, with different underlying pathology and CT features. Teaching point: Metastatic pulmonary calcifications appear when there is a…

MRI Diagnosis of Gymnast’s Wrist (Distal Radial Physeal Stress Injury)
Gymnast’s wrist is an uncommon stress‑related injury of the distal radial physis caused by repetitive axial loading in skeletally immature athletes. We report the case of a 16‑year‑old elite gymnast presenting with progressive wrist pain without acute trauma. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated…

Segmental Testicular Infarction
Teaching point: Segmental testicular infarction is a rare entity that remains poorly documented in the literature. Awareness of its imaging evolution is essential to avoid unnecessary surgical intervention.

Journal Article
A Case of Grade 2 Radiation‑Induced Osteosarcoma
Teaching point: The possibility of a radiation‑induced osteosarcoma should be considered in any painful, ossifying mass occurring within a previously irradiated area, even years after the initial treatment.

Calvarial venous malformation highlighted by the flow–reflux phenomenon on ultrasound
A case is reported of a woman presenting with a firm, tender right frontal lump. Ultrasound showed a small, irregular subgaleal mass with tiny bone surface perforations. Color Doppler ultrasound demonstrated compression–decompression induced alternating flow signals, indicating flow and reflux…

Gastrosplenic Fistula with Thoracic Extension as a Complication of Primary Splenic Lymphoma
Teaching point: Gastrosplenic fistula, a rare complication of splenic lymphoma, can be diagnosed early with computed tomography (CT), which also delineates diaphragmatic or thoracic extension, facilitating timely management and preventing further thoracoabdominal involvement.

Journal Article
Typical Imaging Features of Perianal Mucinous Adenocarcinoma
Teaching point: Typical imaging features of perianal mucinous adenocarcinoma are multilocular cystic mass around the anus, with peripheral irregular enhancement, calcification, and slightly higher signal intensity than muscle on T1‑weighted imaging.

An Unusual Suspect: Right Hypochondrium Pain in the Third Trimester of Pregnancy
Teaching point: Adrenal vein thrombosis should be considered in pregnant patients presenting with unexplained unilateral adrenal enlargement, even when the thrombus itself is not visualized, as early diagnosis allows effective anticoagulant management and prevention of adrenal insufficiency.

CT Diagnosis of Tibial Post Fracture in a Posterior-Stabilized Total Knee Arthroplasty
Fracture of the polyethylene tibial post is a rare complication of posterior‑stabilized total knee arthroplasty and is frequently missed on conventional radiography due to the radiolucent nature of polyethylene. We report a case of post‑traumatic instability in which computed tomography…

Focal Hepatic Hot Spot (‘Hot Quadrate’) Sign on Contrast‑enhanced Abdominal CT: A Telltale Pearl Indicating Superior Vena Cava (SVC) Syndrome
Teaching point: Transient, topographically delineated, intense arterial enhancement in liver segment 4, associated with early filling of the dilated veins of Sappey, is a pathognomonic abdominal CT sign of superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome.

Journal Article
Multifocal Emphysematous Osteomyelitis of the Spine and Pelvis
Teaching point: Detection of intraosseous gas with a bubbly or irregular pattern on imaging should raise a strong suspicion for emphysematous osteomyelitis and prompt urgent antimicrobial treatment, particularly in immunocompromised patients without a history of trauma or surgery.

Zero Echo Time MRI for Osseous Assessment of Sports-Related Pathology in Athletes: A Pictorial Essay
Assessment of cortical bone and mineralized tissue in athletes traditionally relied on radiographs and CT, as conventional MRI provides limited/no signal from cortical bone. Recent advances, particularly zero echo time (ZTE) MRI, enable CT‑like visualization of osseous structures within routine MRI…

MRI Features of Intravenous Leiomyomatosis
Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare benign uterine smooth muscle tumor with intravascular growth through pelvic veins or lymphatics. A case is reported of a 42‑year‑old woman with intermittent spotting and progressive abdominal enlargement. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging showed a heterogeneous…
