OBJECTIVE
To explore the correlation between the degree of bone marrow edema (BME) and the content change of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) and the knee pain symptoms in patients with bone contusion around the knee joint.
METHODS
Thirty patients (30
The purpose of this study was to investigate the course of bone marrow edema pattern (decreased signal intensity on T1- or proton-density-weighted images and increased signal intensity on T2-weighted fat-suppressed images) in the mandibular condyle after improvement in clinical symptoms, and to
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether common magnetic resonance (MR) imaging variables such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangement, osteoarthrosis, effusion, and bone marrow edema are predictive of the presence of TMJ pain.
METHODS
The relationship between TMJ
This study investigated the differences of age distribution and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain between marrow edema and osteonecrosis in the mandibular condyle. Subjects consisted of 35 TMJs in 35 patients with abnormal bone marrow on MR images who were selected from a consecutive series of 527
We report the case of a patient with eosinophilic fasciitis, a rare disease related to systemic sclerodermia and other fibrosing disorders. An involvement of the kidneys--like in this patient with proteinuria and hypoproteinemia--has been described in the literature but is very rare. We discuss
A patient had hereditary angioneurotic edema coincident with systemic lupus erythematosus. This condition resulted in loss of hair, arthralgia, leukoplakia, collitis, and a nephrotic syndrome due to proliferative glomerulonephritis. The renal lesion was resistant to treatment with high-dose
BACKGROUND
Hypermobility-type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), an often-missed diagnosis with the potential for serious sequelae, may have a variety of uncommon presentations, some of which may be gynecologic.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this case report is to present two cases of profound labial edema
Focal periphyseal edema (FOPE) zones have only recently been described as a cause of joint pain in adolescence. The literature is limited to a few case reports and radiologic studies describing this symptomatic physeal pathology. This series describes 3 adolescent patients with
