Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzhar Mlmn / M / 31 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzwhale.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Sacrum.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O backache with swelling since 1 year.
C/O radicular pain to BUE and BLE with bladder involvement since 00.00.00

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the sacrum was performed using the following parameters:

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

7 mm thick T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) sagittal images.

10 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) axial images.

7 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is evidence of a fairly well-defined, lobulated mass lesion involving the sacrum from the S2 level downwards. Anteriorly it is seen to extend into the pelvis with displacement of the rectum anteriorly and to the left. Posteriorly it is seen to extend into the posterior paraspinal soft tissues. The sacro-iliac joints per se do not seem to be involved by the lesion.









This lesion is of intermediate signal intensity on the T1 Weighted images and turns hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. Also seen within this lesion are areas of hyperintensity on the T1 Weighted images and which show intermediate signal characteristics on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. This may represent proteinacious material/paramagnetic substances or bone.

A catheter is noted within the urinary bladder.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of a mass lesion arising from the sacrum from the S2 level downwards as described.

The differential diagnosis would include :

Neoplasia like :

a. Small cell tumors like a plasmacytoma or lymphoma.

b. Chordoma.

Examination : Intracranial and Neck M.R.A.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

H/O vehicular accident on 00.00.00 with LOC for 48 hours with vomiting (2 times).

EXAMINATION :

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted and FLAIR axial images.

Intracranial and neck MRA were performed with 3D TOF and 2D TOF sequences, respectively.

FEW NECK MRA IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION.

OBSERVATION :

There is gyral thickening in the bifrontal regions and left fronto-temporal lobes adjacent to the left Sylvian fissure. These are hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. Areas of hyperintensity on the T1 Weighted images are seen within these areas and would represent subacute blood. In the given clinical setting of trauma, these lesions would represent haemorrhagic cortical contusions.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.

INTRACRANIAL MRA :

There is a focal well-circumscribed area along the midportion of the left posterior cerebral artery. This, most likely represents a turn of the vessel. The possibility of an aneurysm seems less likely.

No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.

NECK MRA :

The common carotid arteries and their extracranial branches appear normal bilaterally. There are no vessel wall irregularities or stenosis of the vessels noted.

IMPRESSION :

The MRA features are suggestive of :

1. Haemorrhagic cortical contusions in the bifrontal regions and left fronto-temporal lobes adjacent to the left Sylvian fissure.
