Test Sinus Tarsi syndrome

This is the case I am currently reading. Work injury. First image that comes up looks to me like sinus tarsi syndrome. Agree?

Testing what it will look like and whether my sig transfers.

62 M 6 weeks non-traumatic pain with acute onset



Biopsy proven Epithelioid Hemangioma

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3314752/

Sudden onset thigh pain following admission with septic shoulder bursitis.

39 male
Sudden onset thigh pain week following hospital admission with septic subacromial/subcoracoid bursitis ( now treated)
However at this visit white cell count , CRP  not markedly elevated .

Although not volunteered on requisition form , further enquiry established patient has very poorly controlled/managed Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Diagnosis and discussion follows





POST GADOLINIUM

POST GADOLINIUM




DIAGNOSIS : DIABETIC MYONECROSIS

Occurs in poorly controlled diabetes
Commonly thigh muscles
Sudden onset pain .Lab markers ( CRP, WBC )  typically only mildly deranged
Usually self limiting
Another teaching point is that in my experience, diabetes is often not volunteered on requisition forms for MSK studies but may be very relevant

Link to recent clinical review follows

42 y/o patient referred for back pain.

Femoral head lesion

F 62, left hip pain. Suspected impingement.

There's a subchondral / subcortical bone lesion at the anterior aspect of the left femoral head with cystic and fatty components, possibly also some calcification.
To me it doesn't look like a typical impingement lesion / herniation pit.
More like cystic degeneration of an intraosseous lipoma, or an LSMFT.

She also has chondropathy with subchondral cysts and mild trochanter bursitis (not shown).

What is your impression?


Thanks,

Andrei


P.S.
I wanted to add a comment to my own post but it seems that's not possible.
As far as I can tell, one can only insert images or videos, no way to attach a powerpoint, pdf etc. If that's correct it would in my opinion be a severe limitation.

Adhesive Capsulitis

38 yr old male with 5 months pain and severely limited ROM.
There is marked capsular thickening and edema, most pronounced in the axillary capsule; this is adhesive capsulitis.There is diffuse thickening of the MGHL.

I understand the MGHL is routinely thickened and resected in arthroscopic capsular release, but I have not found that it is commonly visible. 

There is no imaging abnormality of the cuff or labrum.

Although he is unusually young and male for this diagnosis, imaging features and clinical symptoms are diagnostic for adhesive capsulitis.
