    COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCAN FOR DIAGNOSIS OF OSTEOARTHRITIS: RARE LOCALIZATION IN THE SHOULDER IN A TWELVE-YEAR-OLD BOY
    (Sestre Milosrdnice University hospital and Institute of Clinical Medical Research, Zagreb, 2020) Nikolić, Dragana; Milković, Đurđica; Jurišić, Vladimir
    Acute osteomyelitis is pyogenic infection of the bone and bone marrow. We report a case of successful diagnosis and treatment in a 12-year-old boy with right shoulder joint osteoarthritis. On admission, he was febrile (39.0 ºC) with pain in his right shoulder. Laboratory and biochemistry findings were as follows: leukocytes 10.9x109/L; hemoglobin 122 g/l; fibrinogen 34.7; C-reactive protein 56.8. No changes were observed using conventional radiography. Computed tomography (CT) scan was conducted on the right limb using LightSpeed 16 slices in native and contrast series. The area of interest was shown on axial section, less dense fluid within the joint cavity with a thickened capsule and joint soft tissue swelling around the joint. On bone structures, CT morphological changes were not observed. After deterioration of the condition despite antibiotic therapy, surgery had to be performed. The purulent content was removed by surgery. Prolonged antibiotic therapy and rehabilitation led to improvement of the condition. At two-month follow-up, ultrasonography and CT scan showed that there were no pathologic changes, while magnetic resonance imaging showed minimal tissue fibrosis that did no require surgical treatment.

    Symptomatic isolated thoracic splenosis 11 years after abdominal trauma – Case report
    (Serbian Medical Association, 2016) Pleša, Tanja; Ždrale, Slavko; Batinić-Škipina, Danijela; Kovačević, Miodrag; Jurišić, Vladimir; Lalović, Nenad; Petković, Nenad
    Introduction Thoracic splenosis is defined as the autotransplantation of splenic tissue into thorax. It occurs due to splenic rupture in association with a diaphragmatic tear on the left side after a traumatic event. It is a rare disease that most commonly remains undiscovered as it is usually asymptomatic. Case Outline We present a symptomatic case of thoracic splenosis in a 53-year-old smoker male patient with a medical history of abdominal surgery and splenectomy for a thoracoabdominal gunshot. Three years before the medical examination he was suffering from dyspnea, frequent coughing, left pleuritic chest pain and complained about faster fatigue. A chest radiograph obtained during a medical checkup showed a multinodular left pleura-based mass in the upper lobe. Established histopathological diagnosis after surgical removal of the nodule was splenosis. No evidence of malignancy was observed. Conclusion Splenosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis by the undertaken workup of left pulmonary nodules or masses in patients with a history of trauma.
