Abstract

Breast cancer is a major global public health problem and the most common type of cancer. The incidence of cases in Indonesia are about 42.1 per 100.000 population in 2019. There are multiple risk factors that underlie breast cancer malignancy. However, breast volume has not been yet included as a risk factor for breast cancer. The aim of this study is to analyze the association between breast volume and breast malignancy. This study is a cross-sectional study obtaining breast volume and BI-RADS score by performing mammography assessment at dr. Saiful Anwar General Hospital, Malang. The inclusion criteria were women aged > 40 years and excluded those who have mammography contraindications such as pregnancy and breast-feeding. The parameters for calculating breast volume were the width, height, and compression thickness, and the BI-RADS category (0 – 6) was used to determine the malignancy.   There is no significant association using the non-parametric analytic test Kruskal Wallis analytic test (p = 0.273 , p < 0.05) and a very weak negative correlation based on the correlation test Spearmanis correlation test (-0.127). There is no association between breast volume and the risk of malignancy based on BI-RADS mammography.

Abstract

The use of radiation technology in Indonesia is mostly applied in the medical world and is immensely beneficial, but radiation exposure also has negative effects on health in the form of deterministic and stochastic effects. The thyroid gland is at a high risk of radiation exposure, which leads to the development of thyroid nodules. To prevent that, there must be safety measures in the use of radiation technology by implementing radiation protection, such as a thyroid shield. This study aims to examine the effect of the compliant use of a thyroid shield on the development of thyroid nodules among radiographers in Malang. This study is an observational study with the use of secondary data, where the primary data were previously gathered cross-sectionally in April 2021. The data from 40 subjects were then analyzed using a T-test with the result of the t-value = 4.299 and α = 0.000. With the result of α < 0.05 and t-value > t-distribution, this study concludes that the use of a thyroid shield has an effect on the development of thyroid nodules among radiographers in Malang, and compliant use can lower the incidence of thyroid nodules. Keywords: Radiation exposure, radiographer, thyroid nodule, thyroid

Abstract

Vaginal agenesis is characterised by primary amenorrhea in adolescent women and other abnormalities, such as the absence of the uterus. The incidence of vaginal agenesis or distal vaginal atresia associated with anorectal malformations is difficult to estimate. A 5-year-old patient, at birth, immediately cried, and faeces came out through an orifice in the skin under the vagina. Previously, the patient had planned for a posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP), but it was known that the patient did not have a vaginal opening at the time of surgery. The patient was diagnosed with a low-type anorectal malformation, vaginal agenesis, and a sigmoidostomy status. PSARP and vaginoplasty were performed while the patient was 7 years old. Clinical and radiographic examination in the first 3 days of age plays a role in determining the type of anorectal malformation and whether or not a colostomy is necessary. In children, MRI radiology plays a role in the preoperative examination to evaluate the size, morphology, and stage of development of the muscular sphincter. Keywords: anorectal malformations, vaginal agenesis.

Abstract

Congenital pulmonary airway malformation, formerly known as congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation, is a heterogeneous group of cystic and non-cystic pulmonary lesions marked with the overgrowth of primary bronchioles, which is associated with an abnormal bronchial tree that does not have cartilage. A 4-month-old boy came with a complaint of productive coughs since he was 3 weeks old, fever since the age of 2 months, and shortness of breath. The patient was once hospitalized due to pneumonia and suspected tuberculosis. After undergoing serial chest radiographs, the results showed multiple cysts that were dominant in the lower lobe of both lungs with surrounding infiltrates. Through the confirmation of a chest CT scan, there were small, multiple cysts with a size of <2 cm in both lungs, connected to the bronchial branch, accompanied by consolidation with an air bronchogram suggestive of type 2 congenital pulmonary airway malformation. Congenital pulmonary airway malformation is a rare case that usually requires serial chest radiographs to assist in the establishment of its diagnosis and a CT scan for a definitive diagnosis of its lesions.

Abstract

Introduction: Lithopedion is an ectopic pregnancy that progresses to fetal mortality and calcification, as described in the introduction. It is uncommon, with a reported incidence of 1.5% to 2% of all ectopic pregnancies. The fetus expires and is not absorbed by the mother's body, but it evades maternal immunity by surrounding itself with a calcified shell. Lithopedion can be diagnosed through abdominal X-rays, ultrasonography, and CT imaging. Case presentation: A 73-year-old female complaining of abdominal mass for over three decades and radiating pain to the right hip for a month. The patient is multipara with a history of habitual abortion. There was an immobile abdominopelvic mass in palpation. The ultrasound showed a large calcified mass in the pelvic cavity. Abdominal and pelvic CT revealed a mummified fetus, depicting great detail of the fetal anatomy surrounded by a calcified membrane. The uterus was normal. Our case is suitable with lithokelyphopedion. Conclusion: Lithopedion is a seroius condition associated with high maternal and perinatal mortality rates. The condition was not identified during prenatal visits. A thorough history and physical examination are as important as imaging investigations in this setting. Keywords: lithopedion, lithokelyphopedion, calcified abdominal mass

Abstract

Background: Esophageal varices are one of the most common symptoms of direct outcomes of portal hypertension besides ascites, hepatorenal syndrome, and hypersplenism. Nonselective beta-blockers or band ligation are currently the effective primary preventive options for variceal hemorrhage. The use of partial splenic arterial embolization for the management of variceal hemorrhage in patients with portal hypertension has been described in a small number of reports. Case Report: A girl, 6 y.o., was hospitalized with hematemesis with hypovolemic shock. Laboratory findings show anemia and thrombocytopenia. Radiology and endoscopy show grade III esophageal varices with hepatosplenomegaly. Because of the high risk of morbidity in surgical procedures, partial splenic embolization was performed to treat portal hypertension. Discussion: The combination of varices and a low platelet count puts these patients at high risk for catastrophic hemorrhage. Partial splenic embolization reduces splenic blood volume, resulting in a decrease in venous drainage and a reduction in portal venous flow and pressure. Conclusion: The use of partial splenic arterial embolization to manage variceal hemorrhage in patients with portal hypertension has been described. Embolization can be used alone or in combination with other therapies, like endoscopic ligation or retrograde transvenous variceal obliteration, to treat a variety of conditions. Keywords: Embolization, esophageal varices, splenomegaly, portal hypertension

Abstract

Introduction: Post-COVID-19 syndrome can be seen from the radiological findings on the chest X-ray (CXR). However, limited studies compared CXR changes in post-COVID-19 patients based on their severity.  Methods: Thirty-three post-hospitalized COVID-19 patients who came to the Long COVID Clinic at UGM Academic Hospital were divided into mild-moderate and severe-critical groups. The CXR were taken during hospital admission, in the 4th week, and in the 8th week. CXR images were assessed with the Brixia Score method. Results: The Brixia score in the mild-moderate group (n = 17) and severe-critical (n = 16) group showed a trend of change, which increased in the 4th week and decreased in the 8th week. However, there were no significant changes between the two groups during hospital admission, in the 4th week, and in the 8th week. The Brixia score during hospital admission and in the 8th-week follow-up in the mild-moderate group was significantly lower than that of the severe-critical group. Clinically, the mean Brixia score in the mild-moderate group ranges from mild pneumonia, while the severe-critical group ranges from moderate pneumonia. Conclusion: There is no significant resolution of the CXR until the 8th-week follow-up in post-COVID-19 infection patients with mild-moderate and severe-critical severity. However, the CXR during hospital admission and the 8th week is better in post-COVID-19 infection patients with mild-moderate severity.

Abstract

Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is an epithelial cancer that develops from the lining of the nasopharynx. Nasopharyngeal cancer is a highly radiosensitive and chemosensitive type of tumor. Chemoradiotherapy is the treatment backbone for locoregionally advanced NPC; induction chemotherapy followed by chemoradiotherapy is the new standard-of-care therapy in this disease setting. A 49-year-old male patient was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer T2N3Mx. The patient experienced a delay in his radiotherapy treatment for 6 months, and this delayed time and overall treatment time (OTT) affected the development of the patient’s therapy. The patient underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy procedures and showed good results. The size of the mass reduced, and, based on the result of the biopsy, what remained was non-specific chronic inflammation. Keywords: NPC, progression, radiation therapy, waiting time

Abstract

Pulmonary fungal infections can be found in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients. The Curvularia species of fungi are rarely seen in humans. These fungi can be clinically significant and cause a range of disease processes, particularly in immunocompromised patients. We present a 24-year-old male patient diagnosed with SLE 5 years ago, complaining of fever five days before hospital administration concerning pneumonia. A CT scan revealed consolidation and multiple lung nodules compatible with a fungal pulmonary infection. The result of the sputum culture indicated Curvularia. A chest radiograph showed infiltrates with consolidation in the middle-lower lobes of both lungs. Early and second CT-scan findings revealed ground-glass opacity surrounding multiple irregular nodules (halo signs), cavitary nodules, and reverse halo signs. Afterward, the result of the patient’s sputum culture demonstrated fungal growth of the Curvularia species. The patient then underwent fungal treatment with fluconazole and voriconazole. The patient showed improvements, and a follow-up chest CT scan revealed the resolution of the lesion after fungal treatment. CT-scan examination, clinical condition, and microbiology culture can help diagnose Curvularia pulmonary fungal infection in immunocompromised patients.   Keyword: Phaeohyphomycosis; Curvularia; Halo sign; Reverse halo sign

Abstract

Background: Primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the prostate is a rare condition, and there is no report on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and its relationship with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET). Objectives: The purpose of this article is to present the MRI and FDG-PET imaging findings of primary MALT lymphoma of the prostate and discuss the imaging findings’ importance in the diagnosis and management. Case summaries: A 73-year-old male patient underwent a prostate biopsy for lower urinary tract symptoms and an elevated serum prostate-specific antigen level. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical findings were consistent with MALT lymphoma. As the tumor was confined to the prostate and adjacent tissues and no lymph node metastases were detected on PET-CT, the diagnosis was primary MALT lymphoma of the prostate. The tumor of the transitional zone infiltrated along the obturator internus muscle and into the pubic bone, the levator ani muscle was almost intact on MRI. Conclusion: The absence of lymph node metastasis or gross muscle destruction but a high degree of invasiveness into surrounding tissues is an important imaging finding in the diagnosis of primary MALT lymphoma of the prostate. Keywords: Differential Diagnosis; MRI; Prostate Neoplasms
