Radiologic imaging is an essential supplement to the physical examination in the evaluation of a patient with femoroacetabular impingement. Plain radiographs are the initial modality of choice for the evaluation of bony anatomy and pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging supplements the physical examination and standard radiographs by enabling qualitative and quantitative evaluation of both artic...

Diagnosis of tumors of the kidney depends principally on clinical evaluation and radiologic studies. The role of the pathologist is most important in the classification and characterization of the tumors. In addition, morphologic studies employing the use of electron microscopy may aid in the understanding of histogenesis and the recognition of tumor sub-types. Electron microscopic evaluation i...

OBJECTIVE This study was conducted to assess the clinical significance of traumatic brain stem injury (TBSI) reflected on Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) and Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) by various clinical variables. METHODS A total of 136 TBSI patients were selected out of 2695 head-injured patients. All initial computerized tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging studies were retrospectively ...

Sixty-three patients with third cranial nerve palsies (CNPs), either isolated (31) or in association with other neurologic deficits (32), underwent neuroophthalmologic and neuroradiologic evaluation. Discrepancies between the clinical and radiologic evaluations were analyzed and useful clinical presenting symptoms were identified. Microvascular infarction secondary to diabetes mellitus and/or h...

BACKGROUND While scoliosis has, for a long time, been defined as a three-dimensional (3D) deformity, morphological classifications are confined to the two dimensions of radiographic assessments. The actually existing 3-D classification proposals have been developed in research laboratories and appear difficult to be understood by clinicians. AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of this study was to use t...

BACKGROUND Synovial hemangioma is benign tumor of the joints and is seen relatively rare. The most affected joint is knee but should also be seen in other joints. The disease is usually symptomatic. They are classified as juxta-articular haemangioma, intra-articular haemangioma or an intermediate type of hemangioma with intra- and extraarticular components. CASE REPORT A 19-years-old male pat...
