Objective: To determine if middle aged and older individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG), but no clinical evidence of cardiovascular disease, exhibit abnormal changes in proximal thoracic aortic stiffness or left ventricular mass when compared to healthy counterparts. Research Design and Methods: From the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, 2240 subjects with normal fasting glucose (...
The authors describe a case of advanced thoracic actinomycosis. A 44-year-old man with previous episodes of productive cough with purulent sputum, fever, chest pain and subcutaneous nodules on the left hemithorax was admitted with complaints of lumbar pain irradiating into left lower limb and presence of mass lesion on the left lumbar region. Imaging evaluations were obtained and the patient un...
Thoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is a rare disease entity that is usually associated with hematologic disorders, such as myelodysplastic or hemolytic disease. Because thoracic EMH is usually encountered as a mass during radiologic examinations, it should be differentiated from posterior mediastinal neurogenic tumors. Here, the authors report a case of EMH associated with hereditary s...
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Synovial sarcoma is an uncommon malignant neoplasm occurring chiefly in young adults. It often presents as a solid well-circumscribed soft-tissue mass in the extremities of young adults. Despite its proximity to joints, it has been well established that the tumor cells do not display features of synovial differentiation but instead appear to have a primitive epithelial phenot...
We report a case of a 44-year old female who presented to her physician complaining of mild dyspnea. A follow-up chest X-ray and chest computed tomography scan revealed a giant bilateral intrathoracic mass, filling the right thoracic cavity and extending across the anterior mediastinum into the left chest cavity. This large mass caused a marked shift in the midline structures, displacing the he...
Mediastinal Tuberculous Lymphadenitis Presenting as a Mediastinal Mass with Dysphagia: A Case Report
Mediastinal tuberculous lymphadenitis is a rare disease in adults. Dysphagia as the accompanying symptom is even a rarer manifestation. Cases with esophageal symptoms may present as esophageal ulceration, mucosal or submucosal mass, fistula or sinus formation, extrinsic compression or displacement of the esophagus. Extrinsic compression may radiologically or endoscopically present as a submucos...
The histological diagnosis of any intra-thoracic mass by non-invasive techniques remains difficult. Those masses lying near the mediastinum may be accessible to bron-choscopy and biopsy whereas peripheral lesions adjacent to the rib cage are more suited to percutaneous needle biopsy. Computerised Tomography of the thorax provides vital information as to the physical structure and properties of ...
conclusions patients presenting with spondyloptosis with no neurological deficit can be managed with in-situ fusion via pedicle screws, especially when presenting late and with minimal kyphosis. introduction traumatic thoracic spondyloptosis is caused by high energy trauma and is usually associated with severe neurological deficit. cases presenting without any neurological deficit can be diffic...
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may cause changes in the shape of the thoracic cage by increasing lung volume and hyperinflation. This study investigated changes in thoracic cage dimensions and related factors in patients with COPD. METHODS We enrolled 85 patients with COPD (76 males, 9 females; mean age, 70.6±7.1 years) and 30 normal controls. Thoracic cage dimensions...
Introduction: Postural deviations are one of the musculoskeletal disorders. It seems that some exercises and body mass index could affect postural conditions. Therefore, the purposes of the present study was to determine and compare the postural deviations in obese and overweight powerlifting athletes. Materials and Methods: The male powerlifting athletes aged 18 to 35 years old entered to one ...
