Lets try to evaluate…. For each of the images we want you to comment on Soft tissue changes Bone changes Joint changes Then try to formulate a diagnosis/list of differentials #universityofsurrey 1 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Soft tissue swelling around mid tibia/fibula. Slight increased opactity Bone Oblique, complete, comminuted fracture through the mid diaphysis of the tibia and oblique, complete over- riding, mid diaphyseal fracture of the fibula. Osteolysis of tibial diaphysis. Moth eaten appearance with lucent areas with are ill-defined. Joint No involvement across the joint Pathological fracture most likely due to bone neoplasia #universityofsurrey 2 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Soft tissue swelling around proximal humerus Bone Moth eaten lysis of proximal bone with clear transition zone. Sunburst and amorphous periosteal reaction suggestive of aggressive lesion. Joint No involvement across the joint Most likely bone neoplasia such as osteosarcoma #universityofsurrey 3 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Soft tissue swelling around elbow joint Increased opacity in soft tissue likely enesthesophtye Bone Irregular border with evidence of osteophytes surrounding articular surface. Joint Narrowed joint space and irregular joint margin at radial head Osteoarthritis of elbow #universityofsurrey 4 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Soft tissue swelling around digits, especially D5 Bone Marked evidence of new bone proliferation and osteophytes on all phalanges but in particular D5. Joint Osteophytes at joint margins Narrowing joint spaces D5 in particular D5 metacarpophalangeal joint and interphalangeal joint worst affected Osteoarthritis of the foot #universityofsurrey 5 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Swelling around antebrachium Bone Fracture to distal radius and ulna. Transverse fracture. Caudal and medial displacement of proximal fragment. Simple and closed. Joint No joint involvement. #universityofsurrey 6 Evaluate….. Soft tissue Mild soft tissue swelling around hock Bone Evidence of bone fragments, likely comminuted chips from dislocation. Joint Mediolateral dislocation of the hock. Would need other view to make assessment of proximal/distal movement. #universityofsurrey 7
