Chief Complaint: Generalized tonic-clonic seizure Altered Mental Staatus Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Intubation (___) R IJ CVL NGT (discontinued ___ History of Present Illness: MS. ___ is a ___ woman with past medical history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, pulmonary fibrosis, and recently diagnosed stage I lung cancer status post CyberKnife transfer to the ED intubated and sedated after a generalized tonic-clonic seizure lasting for minutes. Per report, patient was last seen well at around 4 ___ on date of admission. At 6 ___ she was home alone and her neighbor heard her yell, he arrived to find her on the floor, confused (said her age was ___ and told him an incorrect date). He immediately called ___. On EMS arrival she was able to speak but somewhat confused. At the time there were concerns of right upper extremity weakness. There was no evidence of facial droop. As they prepared to transport her she developed right gaze deviation followed by generalized tonic-clonic seizure lasting 4 minutes and resolving spontaneously. She was not given benzodiazepines. She was then taken to an OSH ED where noncontrast ___ CT and CT C-spine were unremarkable. She was given Keppra 1 g IV and lorazepam 1 mg IV. As her alteration in mental status persisted team became concerned that was unable to protect her airway so they proceeded with endotracheal intubation. Prior to intubation blood pressure was 220/102 so she was started on nicardipine drip which was shortly discontinued when she became hypotensive after intubation. She briefly required Neo-Synephrine prior to transport. On further discussion with the patient's family at the bedside they report at baseline she is able to walk with a cane, perform all activities of daily living, manage her finances, and drive. However, during the last ___ weeks she had experienced a persistent bout of diarrhea. She finally visited her PCP and was diagnosed with an intestinal parasite (family is unsure as to which). She was treated with an antiparasitic medication that she had difficulty tolerating per the family. During this time he had become dizzy, and orthostatic so her HCTZ had been held. They feel that in the last ___ weeks she had been somewhat deconditioned and difficulties with cognition have become more apparent.

MRI Brain at OSH concerning for PRES. Etiology of seizure likely secondary to PRES, which was possibly in setting of HTN with SBP in 200s at OSH (she recently discontinued anti-hypertensives a few weeks prior because of dizziness). She was initially intubated for airway protection and admitted to the Neuro ICU. She was started on keppra and placed on cvEEG. Patient had no additional seizure activity and was successfully extubated on ___ and transferred to the floor. Patient was continued on Keppra 1G PO BID and will require indefinitely until she follows-up with neuro in ___ months. #HTN - Patient was initially hypertensive. Her home metoprolol 50mg BID was initially increased to 37.5 TID and home lisinopril 40mg was continued. After additional titration re-starting HCTZ, amlodipine, and adding lasix, patient became hypotensive to as low as SBPs 60-70s. Metoprolol was decreased to 25mg BID and other anti-hypertensives were stopped. Anti-hypertensives were additionally titrated to lisinopril 40mg QDaily and hydrochlorothiazide 25mg QDaily. #Aspiration Pneumonia - Found to have multifocal PNA, initially started on vancomycin and zosyn (___), however was de-escalated to unasyn (___). Speech and Swallow evaluated the patient. Was high aspiration risk, however eventually started on thin liquids and pureed solids and tolerated well. NGT was removed at time of discharge. CXR at discharge demonstrating left lower lobe opacity, could reflect pulmonary nodule identified on previous CT versus infectious process, however patient has remained afebrile without leukocytosis making infectious process at this time less likely. Recommending CT Chest to further characterize left lung opacity as outpatient. #Diarrhea - After starting vancomycin and zosyn patient started to have worsening diarrhea, possibly in setting of recent antibiosis. C. diff was negative. Given persistent diarrhea, tube feeds were stopped and stool cultures and O&P were sent given resent blastocystis hominis treatment. #Gout - was noted to have erythematous swollen right pinky finger on ___ and was given 1.2mg colchicine followed by 0.6mg daily. #Agitation - Became agitated after extubation requiring haldol PRN and standing seroquel.

___ female with COPD, diastolic CHF, atrial fibrillation on warfarin recently admitted with respiratory failure who presented to the ___ ED on ___ with constipation and obstipation. # Constipation: CT A/P on ___ during last admission showed severe colonic distention suggestive of primary ___ given absence of abdominal pain and nausea. Had colonoscopic decompression with colonic/rectal tube placement on ___ after there was no improvement with aggressive enemas, reduction of anticholinergic meds, lytes management, attempts to ambulate. Colonic tube was in place for 24hrs with significant improvement. Antipsychotics were also downtitrated and diliazem was transitioned to metoprolol given concern for medication induced ileus. On this admission, patient again reports having gone 5 days with constipation/obstipation without abdominal pain or nausea/vomiting. CT A/P now without ileus or obstruction/bowel wall thickening and significantly improved from prior. Patient received tap water enema this AM with large, well-formed BM shortly thereafter and patient feels significantly better. Per patient, she was not receiving enemas at the rehab, and does have a tendency to get constipated with prolonged ___ facility stay. TSH 0.54. Continue standing docusate and miralax. Change senna to standing. Added lactulose and tap water enemas prn if no BM for>48hrs. Discontinued Zofran. #Anemia Hb 6.9 upon admission. D/c Hb of 7.1 Has chronic anemia as outpatient. During previous admission, retic index high, hemolysis labs negative, iron studies showed low iron level and very low iron saturation (6%) c/w iron deficiency. She was started on PPI BID out of concern / high risk for gastritis/PUD. However, concern for gastritis low at this time. Heart burn likely secondary to deconditioning. Received one unit prbc on ___ in ED. Reduced PPI to 40 daily and added iron supplements daily to improve iron deficiency in setting of poor PO intake. We discussed that iron may make her stools dark and may make her constipated but that she should continue to make sure she has a good BM every day. #CT chest findings / Hypoxia Of note, during last admission, pt's sputum cultures grew MRSA and stenotrophonas. ID was consulted and patient completed a 7 day course of vancomycin (ended ___, 5 days azithro (ended ___, and bactrim (ended ___. CT chest on ___ did not show any significant consolidation, but patient had persistent hypoxia after completing abx course. Repeat CXR on ___ was suggestive of new retrocardiac opacity, but pt did not have clinical signs of infection and she did not receive further abx. On this admission, she is requiring 2L NC O2. CT A/P showed LLL consolidation and R basilar atelectasis but repeat CXR showed continued mild pulmonary vascular congestion with bibasilar atelectatic changes and small pleural effusions. Her symptoms are likely secondary to volume overload and she is afebrile, denies cough, congestion, or rhinorrhea. There is no leukocytosis. She was discharged on an increased dose of diuretic as below. #Asymptomatic pyuria: U/A on admission with large leukocytes, 21 WBC, few bacteria. Pt denies urinary sx. Will follow up culture and defer treatment of asymptomatic pyuria at this time. #COPD: Patient with diagnosis of COPD as an outpatient. Was recently treated for COPD exacerbation and s/p prednisone taper. Exam today with mild wheezing but no recent cough or increased sputum production.

The pt was admitted for repeated episodes of weakness, flushing, and tachycardia in the setting of other non-specific complains including diarrhea. She continues to have these episodes inpatient. During the episodes, she will suddenly become tachycardic to 150s-170s with acute onset whole-body weakness and numbness. The symptoms last for about 2 hours as they slowly self-resolve. Workup so far has been unrevealing (see below) and the episodes continue to happen. The pt's syx seem to improve and be prevented by Ativan. On ___, the pt had a prolonged episode a/w lateral beating of the eyes. She reports that she was awake and aware during the episode but unable to communicate. However she may be remembering commotion right before the episode, as she cannot give any details about what she heard that align with what actually occurred. She received 0.5 mg IVP Ativan which was already at bedside. The episode broke before further Ativan could be given. She had a depressed respiratory rate and erratic breathing during the event, though her oxygen level stayed at 100% on RA and she protected her airway. She was loaded with Keppra. On ___, the pt had another episode while on EEG monitoring. There was no sign of seizure on EEG. Potassium, sodium, and magnesium were normal during the episode. MR cervical and thoracic spine showed no abnormalities. LP was unremarkable. Nephrology consulted for ?hypokalemic periodic paralysis, but no evidence of it as her K has always been normal. She interestingly had 2 more episodes both related to IV LR infusion, but quickly resolved after fluids were stopped. POTS disease related to recent viral infection is a possibility. We have recommended that she follows up with ___ neurology and ___ clinic for further testing. Functional neurologic disorder is also a possibility. Her Vit D is deficient and she will be placed on supplement. She developed post LP headache, which was conservatively managed. She is instructed to call pain clinic for blood patch if the headache remains severe after discharge.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old woman with right parieto-temporal brain mass// evaluate brain mass TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After administration of Gadavist intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal orientations. COMPARISON: Outside hospital CT head ___ FINDINGS: Centered within the right frontotemporal operculum, there is a T1 isointense, T2 heterogeneously hyperintense, heterogeneously enhancing mass measuring approximately 5.2 x 3.3 x 3.6 cm (AP by TV by SI). The mass contains numerous small cystic components, areas of restricted diffusion, and areas of intralesional hemorrhage. There is extensive vasogenic edema seen within the surrounding white matter with extension into the right insular cortex, right basal ganglia, and right thalamus. There is resultant local mass effect, with effacement of the adjacent sulci. Additionally, there is approximately 9 mm of leftward midline shift. Uncal herniation is seen on the right, without evidence for downward herniation at this time. There is moderate effacement of the right lateral ventricle. The remainder of the ventricular system appears unremarkable. The basal cisterns are patent. The right M1/M2 segments appear pushed anteriorly from the resultant mass effect, but appear patent on this non angiographic phase study. Otherwise, there is gross preservation of the principal intracranial vascular flow voids. The dural venous sinuses appear patent on MP-RAGE imagine sequences. There is complete opacification of the left sphenoid sinus. The remainder of the visualized paranasal sinuses, middle ear cavities, and mastoid air cells are well aerated and clear. The orbits are within normal limits bilaterally. IMPRESSION: 1. 5.2 x 3.3 x 3.6 cm heterogeneous, enhancing mass centered within the right frontotemporal operculum containing areas of restricted diffusion, internal hemorrhage, and numerous cystic components. Findings are suggestive of a primary intra-axial neoplasm, such as a high-grade glioma. A lower grade glioma would be unlikely given the extent of enhancement. Metastatic disease along the differential is considered much less likely. 2. Associated mass effect, with 9 mm of leftward midline shift, moderate effacement of the right lateral ventricle, and moderate right uncal herniation. 3. Additional findings described above.

There is a moderate-sized mucosal cyst in the right maxillary sinus. The visualized portion of the remaining paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. CTA HEAD: The right M1 segment appears to be displaced anteriorly and superiorly. There is displacement and narrowing of multiple sylvian branches of the right MCA. There is a prominent vessel extending laterally within the area of the lesion which likely represents early venous filling. The remaining vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches appear normal with no evidence of stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm. The dural venous sinuses are patent. IMPRESSION: 1. Large heterogeneous temporoparietal mass with associated mass effect, 9 mm of midline shift to the left, and surrounding vasogenic edema, unchanged compared to prior study. 2. There is displacement of the right M1 segment and displacement and narrowing of multiple right MCA sylvian branches. 3. Prominent ecstatic vessel extending laterally within the area lesion, likely demonstrating early venous filling. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Functional MRI INDICATION: ___ year old woman with new R parietal ring enhancing brain lesion, with vasogenic edema, mass effect and MLS // Pre-op evaluation, please include DTI sequences TECHNIQUE: The examination was performed using a 3.0T MRI scanner. After the uneventful administration of 5 ml of Gadavist contrast agent, axial FSPGR, axial Arterial Spin Labeled (ASL), diffusion tensor images (DTI) using 36 directions and task based functional imaging paradigms were obtained. Functional imaging was performed using Echo Planar/BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) technique using block design functional paradigms. The functional paradigms include analysis of the motor areas during the alternating movement of the left hand (motion =3 mm), right hand and feet (motion =less than 2 mm) and tongue (motion =less than 2 mm) and language areas during the mental process of generating words with different letters (motion =2.5 mm during native language, less than 2 mm during ___ language). Post processing of functional images, DTI fiber tractography and reference image skull stripping was performed using a dedicated workstation. All obtained and derived images were used to generate this report. COMPARISON: ___ contrast brain MRI. FINDINGS: Motion during left hand and native word generation tasks did exceed 2 mm which makes these images potentially nondiagnostic. Again is demonstrated a stable peripherally enhancing, centrally cystic/necrotic mass in the right frontotemporal operculum with surrounding vasogenic edema. The mass demonstrates slow diffusion in its periphery with surrounding vasogenic edema in the white matter, but no obvious restricted diffusion in this white matter. Mass effect with leftward midline shift and mild uncal herniation as previously described. The arterial spin labeled sequence is notable for increased perfusion peripherally in this mass. The tractography color maps demonstrate medial and anterior deviation of the major corticospinal tracts. In the immediate vicinity of the tumor there are multiple association and commissural tracks displaced inferiorly and medially. The functional MRI demonstrates BOLD activation areas during the movement of the hands, feet and tongue. Bold activation during right toe movement is a the expected position of the medial left motor cortex. Bold activation during left toe movement is poor. Bold activation during right hand movement is in the expected position of the left motor cortex. Bold activation during left hand movement is in the expected position of the right motor cortex away from the tumor, but please note that these images are potentially nondiagnostic due to motion. Bold activation during tongue movement is poor which makes placement of its bold topography difficult. Bold activation during native word generation is poor, but is seen predominantly in the left hemisphere, most likely related to dominance but please note that the images are potentially nondiagnostic due to motion. Bold activation during ___ language word generation is poor IMPRESSION: 1. Stable right frontotemporal opercular mass as described above, with increased peripheral perfusion, medial deviation of the major corticospinal tracts. 2. Inferior and medial displacement of the immediately adjacent association and commisural fibers suggest superolateral entry may be favorable. 3. Motion artifact degrades the diagnostic sensitivity of the left hand and native word generation tasks. Poor BOLD signal on many of the fMRI tasks of the left side of the body most likely secondary to impaired patient cooperation due to right frontotemporal mass with associated cerebral edema. 4. Native language paradigm demonstrates the propagation of activation in the convexity with the majority of the BOLD activity in the left cerebral hemisphere, likely related with dominance. Please take note of the decreased degree of certainty due to potential motion artifact. RECOMMENDATION(S): 1. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W/ CONTRAST T___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ with new R parietal ring enhancing brain lesion, with vasogenic edema, mass effect and MLS.// Pre-operative planning, please perform prior to 6am ___ TECHNIQUE: After administration of 5 mL of Gadavist intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with MPRAGE and T1 technique. Sagittal and coronal orientation reformatted images of the MPRAGE acquisition was then produced. COMPARISON: MR head ___.

The salivary glands appear unremarkable. There are multiple bilateral thyroid nodules measuring up to 1.6 cm on the left, image 602:35. No pathologically enlarged cervical or supraclavicular lymph nodes are seen. Cervical carotid and vertebral arteries appear patent. Allowing for mixing artifact from the external circulation branches, internal jugular veins appear patent. There is mild pleural/parenchymal scarring at the included lung apices. There are no suspicious osseous lesions concerning for infection or malignancy. Patient is status post instrumented fusion of C4-5 spinous processes with cerclage wires. There is partial fusion of C4 and C5 vertebral bodies and facet joints, possibly congenital. 3 mm anterolisthesis of C5 on C6 is unchanged. Some of the bilateral anterior ethmoid air cells are opacified. There is trace fluid in the right sphenoid sinus, image 2:9, likely secondary to prolonged supine positioning and endotracheal intubation. Mastoid air cells appear clear. This exam is not technically optimized for evaluation of the included intracranial structures, but no concerning abnormalities are seen. IMPRESSION: 1. No significant change in the fluid collection extending from the left inferior margin of the hyoid bone inferiorly over bilateral thyroid cartilages. Rim enhancement is most pronounced along the left superior portion of the collection, similar to the prior study, and less conspicuous than on the prior study along the inferior bilateral portion of the collection. This is overall compatible with an abscess 2. Left greater than right strap muscle edema has improved. New trace fluid extending from the caudal portion of the above-described fluid collection in the midline to the level of the thyroid isthmus, without rim enhancement. 3.

ANESTHESIA: Moderate sedation was provided by administrating divided doses of 175mcg of fentanyl and 3 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service time of 3 hours 10 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: CONTRAST: 170 ml of Optiray contrast FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 36.5 minutes, 2299 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Left radial artery access 2. Right internal iliac arteriogram. 3. Right external iliac arteriogram. 4. Right pudendal arteriogram 5. Gel-Foam embolization of the anterior division of the right internal iliac artery to near stasis. 6. Post embolization right internal iliac arteriogram. 7. Superior gluteal artery branch arteriogram. 8. Gel-Foam and coil embolization of a third order branch of the superior gluteal artery. 9. Post embolization right internal iliac arteriogram. 10. Post embolization distal aortic/iliac arteriogram. 11. Abdominal aortogram. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following a discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. Left arm was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Using palpation, the left radial artery was identified. After injection of 1% subcutaneous lidocaine, a micropuncture needle was advanced into the radial artery until brisk blood return was identified. An 018 Nitinol wire was easily advanced into the radial artery. The micropuncture needle was exchanged for a 5 ___ Glide sheath. The sheath was flushed and 3000 units of intra-arterial heparin, 200 mcg of nitroglycerin and 2.5 mg of verapamil were injected into the radial artery. The sheath was connected to a pressurized bag of heparinized saline. A glidewire with ___ 125 cm ___ catheter was advanced easily under fluoroscopy into the aorta and then used to select the right common iliac artery and then internal iliac artery. Contrast injection was then performed confirming position. A right internal iliac arteriogram was performed which demonstrated irregularity of the pudendal artery though no active extravasation. The catheter was then retracted and advanced into the right external iliac artery. Contrast injection confirmed position. Right external iliac arteriogram was performed which did not demonstrate any areas of active extravasation. The catheter was retracted and the internal iliac artery was selected. An ___ microcatheter and double angled glide microwire were used to select the pudendal artery. Contrast injection confirmed position. A right pudendal arteriogram was performed which did not demonstrate any areas of active extravasation. The decision was made to Gel-Foam embolize the right anterior division. The microcatheter and microwire were retracted into the origin of the anterior division and Gel-Foam embolization was performed to prune peripheral vessels. A post embolization right internal iliac arteriogram was performed which demonstrated contrast pooling and possible extravasation arising from a branch of the superior gluteal artery. The superior gluteal artery was selected with the microcatheter and microwire. Contrast injection confirmed position. An exchange length Glidewire was introduced and the ___ catheter was exchanged over the wire for ___ F 110 cm pigtail flush catheter. A distal aortogram was performed to evaluate any additional areas of bleeding within the pelvis. An abdominal aortogram was performed to evaluate for any additional areas of bleeding arising from lumbar arteries. The Glidewire wire was used to remove the pigtail flush catheter. A TR band was placed over the patient's left wrist. After inflation of the band with 18 cc of air, the sheath was removed. The band was slowly deflated until bleeding was noted at the skin entry site. An additional 2 cc of air was introduced into the band. The total volume of air in the band is 12 cc. The patient tolerated the procedure well and there were no immediate post-procedure complications. FINDINGS: 1. Initial right internal iliac arteriogram demonstrated irregularity of the pudendal artery without definite active extravasation. 2. Selective pudendal arteriogram did not demonstrate active extravasation or pseudoaneurysm. 3. Post Gel-Foam embolization anterior division right internal iliac arteriogram demonstrated satisfactory pruning of the peripheral vasculature and a small area of contrast pooling arising from a branch of the superior gluteal artery. 4. Superior gluteal branch arteriogram confirmed active extravasation arising from a third order arterial branch. 5. Post Gel-Foam and coil embolization arteriogram demonstrated resolution of active bleeding without evidence of pseudoaneurysm. 6. Post embolization right internal iliac arteriogram not demonstrate any additional suspicious areas of active bleeding or pseudoaneurysm. 7. Abdominal aortic arteriogram did not demonstrate any additional areas of active extravasation or pseudoaneurysm arising from the lumbar arteries or pelvis. IMPRESSION: Left radial artery access pelvic arteriogram with Gel-Foam embolization of the anterior division of the right internal iliac artery and coil and Gel-Foam embolization of a third order branch of the right superior gluteal artery where active bleeding was noted.

COMPARISON: 1. Pelvic radiographs ___. 2. MR lumbar spine ___. 3. CT torso ___. FINDINGS: New from prior studies hardware artifact in the upper sacrum from pelvic fixation hardware including a right sacroiliac transit trans-syndesmotic fixation screw. Artifact somewhat limits evaluation of immediately adjacent structures; within these confines: Again seen is an acute appearing compression fracture involving the full AP depth of the L1 vertebral body, with buckling and slight posterior retropulsion of the posterior cortex into the spinal canal, measuring approximately 4-5 mm, unchanged (03:13). Diffuse marrow edema seen in the vertebral body and extending into the pedicles bilaterally, unchanged. There is overall unchanged mild to moderate vertebral body height loss. Trace STIR hyperintense fluid, likely hematoma, is seen in the prevertebral space at this level, along with associated disruption of the anterior longitudinal ligament, as previously seen (see series 3, image 15). STIR hyperintense signal within the sacrum inferior to the hardware artifact is again noted, compatible with previously demonstrated sacral fracture. Marrow signal is otherwise within normal limits. Elsewhere, remaining vertebral body heights are preserved. Alignment is within normal limits. The distal spinal cord and conus medullaris is unremarkable and terminates at L1. The cauda equina nerve roots are normal. Intervertebral disc hypointense signal at L3-4 and L4-5 likely reflects degeneration. There is slight L1-L2 disc T2/STIR high signal, as seen previously, likely edema in the setting of adjacent fracture. T12-L1: Bony retropulsion of the buckled posterior L1 cortex at the level of the pedicles slightly effaces the anterior CSF space at this level, without overall spinal canal narrowing or cauda equina contact (2:46 and 101:4). No neural foraminal narrowing. L1-2: Unremarkable. L2-3: Posterior disc bulge, ligamentum flavum thickening, and facet osteophytes without significant spinal canal narrowing. There is very mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing due to the disc bulge. L3-4: Broad-based posterior disc bulge is mild, along with ligamentum flavum thickening and facet osteophytes causing mild spinal canal narrowing. There is very mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. L4-5: Central disc protrusion associated with an annular fissure, ligamentum flavum thickening, and facet osteophytes cause moderate spinal canal narrowing with narrowing of the subarticular zones but no definite descending S1 nerve root impingement. There is mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. L5-S1: Partially obscured due to hardware artifact from right sacroiliac screw. No definite encroachment of the screw on the spinal canal or neural foramina. No definite spinal canal narrowing. Moderate to severe left and moderate right neural foraminal narrowing is unchanged. The remaining visualized prevertebral paraspinal soft tissues are unremarkable. Imaged portions of the abdomen retroperitoneum are without acute focal abnormality on limited evaluation. IMPRESSION: 1. Status post interval placement of pelvic fixation hardware including a right sacroiliac screw. Although immediately adjacent structures are somewhat obscured by hardware artifact, within these confines there is no new spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing or new cauda equina nerve root impingement. 2. Redemonstration of burst type fracture of L1 with moderate overall height loss and 4 mm posterior bony retropulsion without significant spinal canal narrowing or cauda equina impingement. 3. Redemonstration of disruption of the anterior longitudinal ligament at the site of the L1 fracture associated with prevertebral hematoma, unchanged. 4. Marrow edema in the upper sacrum, compatible with known sacral fractures. 5. Background moderate lumbar spondylosis, unchanged. Notably, spinal narrowing is worst (moderate) at L4-5, and multilevel neural foramina narrowing is worst (moderate to severe) on the left at L5-S1. Further details, as above.

Some time later, he was found down about a few blocks from his son's house (visiting from ___ for ___) by a passerby, who happened to be a ___. His son's neighbor was also around and called his son. The pediatrician who found the patient stated that he was able to endorse chest pain and remain conversant, however had a very slow pulse and perhaps looked pale. It is unclear how long the down time was and if there was any loss of consciousness. The patient's son arrived at the scene around the time EMS had come and the patient was brought to ___ for further care. Per patient's son, he does have a history of chest pain with STEMI in ___, treated with what son thinks was DES x2 to RCA and POBA of ?LAD. He was on aspirin 325mg PO daily and Plavix for many years until about ___ years ago. The Plavix was discontinued about ___ years ago as he was so many years removed from the STEMI. He has been on a baby aspirin since. He also has never had a history of GI bleed, intracranial bleed, or major bleed of any sort. His only medications at this point apart from baby aspirin include enalapril (2.5mg to 5mg daily - son is unclear which dosing) and simvastatin 80mg PO daily. He used to be on metoprolol, but this was recently discontinued because of intolerance to beta blockade (especially with exercise and running). In the ED initial vitals were: -P 40, 153/93 14, 100% RA -Subsequent recorded vitals include P48, 72/52, 12, 100% Non-Rebreather ECG per my read: atrial rate of ~55bpm, ventricular rate of 39 bpm; rhythm consistent with complete heart block; normal axis; probable left atrial abnormality, Q waves in inferior leads with sub-mm ST-elevations; 4-5mm ST depressions across V1-V4; 1mm ST elevations in V5-V6; no prior for comparison, consistent with likely postero-lateral STEMI (?evolving inferior as well) Labs/studies notable for: -Chem10 with K 3.3, Cr 1.2 (unclear baseline) -CBC with Hgb 13.3, Plt 147 Patient was given: -Dopamine gtt -Norepinephrine gtt -PO Ticagrelor 180mg x1 Patient was taken urgently to the cath lab where he was intubated on the table due to possible hypoxic respiratory failure and need to maintain airway protection prior to catheterization. He underwent successful aspiration thrombectomy and DES x1 placement to mid-total RCA occlusion. Given lack of enteral access, he received PR aspirin, IV heparin gtt (started in ED until cath), tirofiban gtt post-cath. He also had a pacer wire placed in the ED prior to transfer to cath lab, but quickly resumed native sinus conduction post-stenting without further need for pacing. He was subsequently transferred to the CCU intubated and sedated. At time of arrival he was agitated and initially not following commands. He also had repetitive myoclonic movements, concerning for seizure-like activity. However, these quickly resided and the patient was following commands, endorsing discomfort around the endotracheal tube. No future ROS could be collected i/s/o intubated/sedated status.

ANESTHESIA: Moderate sedation was provided by administrating divided doses of 100 mcg of fentanyl and 1 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service time of 20 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: None CONTRAST: 0 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 1.4 min, 10.6 mGy PROCEDURE 1. Right internal jugular approach chest double lumen Port-a-cath placement PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the explanation of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The upper chest was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Under continuous ultrasound guidance, the patent right internal jugular vein was compressible and accessed using a micropuncture needle. Permanent ultrasound images were obtained before and after intravenous access, which confirmed vein patency. Subsequently a Nitinol wire was passed into the right atrium using fluoroscopic guidance. The needle was exchanged for a micropuncture sheath. The Nitinol wire was removed and a short ___ wire was advanced to make appropriate measurements for catheter length. The ___ wire was then passed distally into the IVC. Next, attention was turned towards creation of a subcutaneous pocket over the upper anterior chest wall. After instilling superficial and deeper local anesthesia using lidocaine mixed with epinephrine, a 2.5 cm transverse incision was made and a subcutaneous pocket was created by using blunt dissection. The double lumen port was then connected to the catheter. The catheter was tunneled from the subcutaneous pocket towards the venotomy site from where it was brought out using a tunneling device. The port was then connected to the catheter and checks were made for any leakage by accessing the diaphragm using a non-coring ___ needle. No leaks were found. The port was then placed in the subcutaneous pocket. The venotomy tract was dilated using the introducer of the peel-away sheath supplied. Following this, the peel-away sheath was placed over the ___ wire through which the port was threaded into the right side of the heart with the tip in the right atrium. The sheath was then peeled away. The subcutaneous pocket was closed in layers with ___ interrupted and ___ subcuticular continuous Vicryl sutures.

Findings and recommendations discussed with Dr. ___ by phone at 5:03pm ___. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Abdominal MRI. MRCP. INDICATION: ___ year old woman with cirrhosis and ascites, finding of pancreatic hypodensity on CT // assess area of concern on abdominal CT TECHNIQUE: T1 and T2 weighted multiplanar images of the abdomen were acquired within a 1.5 Tesla magnet, including 3D dynamic sequences performed prior to, during, and following the administration of 14 cc of Gadavist intravenous contrast. COMPARISON: CT and ultrasound available from ___. FINDINGS: MRI OF THE ABDOMEN WITH AND WITHOUT IV CONTRAST: Lung bases are clear. There is no pericardial or pleural effusion. The heart size is normal. There is moderate perihepatic and perisplenic ascites (series 3, image 27). The liver contour is nodular, compatible with cirrhosis. Reticular contrast enhancement, particularly throughout the posterior aspect of the right hepatic lobe on delayed sequences, denotes confluent fibrosis (series 15, image 25). There is heterogeneous signal drop-off of the hepatic parenchyma on T1 weighted out of phase images in comparison to in phase sequences, denoting steatosis (series 6, image 12). No focal hepatic mass is detected. There is conventional hepatic arterial anatomy. The portal and hepatic veins are patent. The spleen is mildly enlarged (series 2, image 13), measuring 13 cm. Perisplenic varices and a recannalized paraumbilical vein denotes chronic portal hypertension (series 13, image 50). The adrenal glands, kidneys, stomach, and intra-abdominal loops of small and large bowel are normal. There is no mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. The pancreas demonstrates normal signal intensity on T1 and T2 weighted sequences. The main pancreatic duct is normal. An ill-defined area of hypoenhancement within the pancreatic tail seen on the ___ CT examination is again demonstrated on MRI on both early and delayed post-contrast dynamic series (series 12, image 51); however, no correlate is seen on T1 weighted precontrast images were T2 and diffusion weighted sequences. There is no atrophy. The abdominal aorta, celiac trunk, SMA, and renal arteries are patent and normal in caliber. A left accessory renal artery is present (series 12, image 46 52). There are no bony lesions concerning for malignancy or infection. IMPRESSION: 1. Ill-defined area of hypoenhancement within the pancreatic body has no DWI, T1 precontrast, or T2 correlates, and may reflect the sequela of prior pancreatits. No discrete mass. Normal-caliber pancreatic duct. This can be followed for stability on future hepatic screening imaging. 2. Cirrhotic liver with confluent fibrosis.

DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 2.6 s, 20.1 cm; CTDIvol = 26.7 mGy (Body) DLP = 534.8 mGy-cm. 2) Spiral Acquisition 4.1 s, 32.1 cm; CTDIvol = 23.3 mGy (Body) DLP = 746.6 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 1,281 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: Please refer to separate report of CT chest performed on the same day for description of the thoracic findings. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Evaluation of the liver is limited due to streak artifact from overlying metallic device. The liver demonstrates homogeneous attenuation throughout. There is no evidence of focal lesions within the limitations of an unenhanced scan. There is no evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder is mildly distended and contains gallstones. No definite wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. PANCREAS: The pancreas is not well seen due to anasarca and streak artifact. No gross fluid collections within its expected region. SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions. ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape. URINARY: The right kidney is not visualized. The left kidney is slightly atrophic. There is no evidence of focal renal lesions within the limitations of an unenhanced scan. There is no hydronephrosis. There is no nephrolithiasis. There is no perinephric abnormality. GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is unremarkable. Small bowel loops demonstrate normal caliber and wall thickness throughout. There are large ventral bowel containing hernias in the midline and right abdomen. The more central hernia contains mildly distended loops of bowel on entry and exit. The right abdominal hernia contains decompressed loops of bowel and a small amount of nonspecific free fluid. No transition point identified. Elsewhere, the colon and rectum are unremarkable. There is small volume ascites. The appendix is not visualized. PELVIS: The urinary bladder is decompressed around a Foley catheter, limiting evaluation of its wall. The distal left ureter is unremarkable. The distal right ureter is not seen. There is small volume free fluid in the pelvis. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: There is a fibroid uterus. No adnexal abnormality is seen. LYMPH NODES: There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. Extensive atherosclerotic disease is noted. There is a femorofemoral bypass graft of which the patency cannot be assessed without contrast. BONES: The bones are diffusely osteopenic. A compression deformity of the L1 vertebra is of indeterminate chronicity without prior studies for comparison. There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions. Posterior spinal fusion hardware extends from the T10-L3 level. SOFT TISSUES: There is diffuse subcutaneous edema suggestive of anasarca. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute findings to explain the patient's reported symptoms within the abdomen or pelvis. 2. Two large ventral bowel containing hernias. No evidence of obstruction. 3. Anasarca. 4. Cholelithiasis with mildly distended gallbladder. Trace pericholecystic fluid is likely secondary to anasarca. 5. Nonvisualization of the pancreas and right kidney may be due to technical factors and anasarca or suggest history of prior surgery. Clinical correlation recommended. 6. Compression deformity of the L1 vertebra is of indeterminate chronicity without prior studies for comparison. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with hypoxia// PNA? TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images were obtained through the chest without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformats were obtained. COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: HEART AND VASCULATURE: The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber. There are extensive atherosclerotic calcifications about the aortic arch, proximal arch vessels, and descending thoracic aorta. There are multiple coronary stents. The heart is moderately enlarged. No pericardial effusion. Calcific densities about the left ventricle are suggestive of prior infarct. No pericardial effusion is seen. AXILLA, HILA, AND MEDIASTINUM: No axillary lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. There are innumerable prominent but subcentimeter supraclavicular and anterior mediastinal lymph nodes measuring up to 0.8 cm. A borderline enlarged 1.0 cm right lower paratracheal lymph node (4:80). No large mediastinal mass or hematoma. There are multiple right axillary venous varices. PLEURAL SPACES: No significant pleural effusion or pneumothorax. LUNGS/AIRWAYS: Mild to moderate centrilobular emphysema. Diffuse interlobular septal thickening and ground-glass opacification is suggestive of pulmonary edema. A 0.5 cm left lower lobe nodule is nonspecific, possibly infectious or inflammatory (4:135). There is a 0.5 cm nodule in the lingula (4:122). Few patchy opacities in the left lower lobe may represent aspiration in the setting of left main bronchus secretions. The airways are otherwise grossly patent to the level of the segmental bronchi bilaterally. BASE OF NECK: This mid esophagus is distended with debris. ABDOMEN: Findings will be reported on the same day CT of the abdomen and pelvis. BONES: Posterior spinal fusion hardware projects over the lower thoracic spine. No suspicious osseous abnormality is seen.? Apparent deformity of the T9 vertebra is likely a degenerative Schmorl's node. There is no acute fracture. IMPRESSION: 1. Mild-to-moderate centrilobular emphysema with mild superimposed pulmonary edema. 2. Patchy opacities in the left lower lobe may represent aspiration pneumonia in the setting of left main stem bronchus secretions. No evidence of bronchial occlusion. 3. Multiple prominent and borderline enlarged supraclavicular and mediastinal lymph nodes are nonspecific, but may be reactive. 4. Nodules measuring up to 0.5 cm in the left lung, one of which may be infectious or inflammatory, can be followed with optional CT in 12 months if the patient is high risk.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: Penicillins / Ibuprofen Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Chest pain Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: ___ yo M with PMH of HLD, diet-controlled DM2, and COPD who p/w sudden onset cramping left-sided chest pain. Patient reports that he woke up this morning feeling well. He exercised with some light weight lifting without difficulty or pain. While eating breakfast patient developed severe (___) left chest cramping pain with some radiation to back and neck. He has never had pain similar to this. There is no association with lightheadedness, shortness of breath, or pleuritic component. He denies fevers, chills, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Reports recent 4 lb. weight loss. Notably, patient smoked for ___ years before quitting ___ years ago. In the ED, initial vital signs were 97.9, 56, 144/82, 18, 100% RA. Patient was managed initially for ACS and given ASA and NTG. However, two sets of cardiac enzymes were negative and multiple EKGs were unremarkable. There was concern for aortic dissection given severity of pain for which CTA chest was performed. This revealed no evidence of dissection but did show a large LLL lung mass. This was communicated to his PCP who requested an admission for pain control and biopsy. On the floor, initial vital signs were 97.9, 88, 151/94, 20, 95% RA. Patient reports that chest pain has resolved. Does not believe this was due to pain medications.

___ yo M with PMH of HLD, diet-controlled DM2, and COPD who p/w sudden onset cramping left-sided chest pain and found to have large LLL lung mass on CTA chest. ACTIVE ISSUES # Chest pain: There was no evidence of ACS or PE per cardiac enzymes, EKG, and a negative CTA chest. Pain was most likely related to large LLL lung mass appreciated on CTA chest. Most likely represents malignancy given patient's extensive smoking history. Consulted Interventional Pulmonology for biopsy but their impression was that mass was too peripheral to access via bronchoscopy. Called Interventional Radiology who will biopsy as an outpatient. Patient's pain had resolved by the time he was admitted and he developed no subsequent chest pain. Because biopsy in ___ could not be scheduled for several days patient was discharged home with a prescriptions for Dilaudid and as needed bowel regimen. CHRONIC ISSUES # Hyperlipidemia: Continued home pravastatin. # Type II diabetes: Diet-controlled at home. Did not start sliding scale. # COPD: Stable. Continued home inhaler regimen. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES - Patient discharged with Rx for oral Dilaudid - Biopsy of LLL lung and left adrenal mass to be scheduled ___ - Patient will follow-up with PCP early next week - Holding off on knee replacement pending lung cancer workup

Chief Complaint: Dizziness and lightheadedness with standing; transient loss of vision in right eye Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is an ___ year old female with a past medical history notable for T2DM (last HA1c = 13.9 on ___, HTN, atrial fibrillation on Coumadin, severe three vessel CAD with ischemic cardiomyopathy and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (EF25-30%), hypokinesis, thrombus in the left ventricle, and pulmonary hypertension who presented for dizziness, temporary loss of vision in her right eye, one episode of emesis, and several days of increased confusion. Notably, the patient was recently admitted 2 months prior for failure to thrive after moving to the ___ from ___ and had not had medical attention for the last ___ years. It was at this time that she was found to have the abovementioned chronic diseases, and it was decided to treat her CAD medically rather than surgically. As per Ms. ___ daughter, her mother was working with home physical therapy the morning of admission. During this session she stood up and felt extremely lightheaded, los vision in her right eye temporarily and had an episode of non-bloody, non-bilious emesis. The symptoms quickly resolved when she sat down; and she was referred to the ED by ___. In the ED, initial vitals were: 98.1 69 112/64 16 97%RA. Labs were significant for nitrite positive urinalysis. CTA head and neck showed no flow limiting stenosis. EKG showed atrial fibrillation with left axis deviation, left ventricular hypertrophy but no worrisome ST changes and relatively unchanged compared to prior. Neurology evaluated the patient and stated that the symptoms were likely explained by her known orthostatic hypotension and transient hypoperfusion through a stenosed right ophthalmic artery. She was given 2g cefepime and 1L NS before transfer to the floor. Upon arrival to the floor, Ms. ___ stated she was feeling better, and had no more nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain. She denied urinary frequency, dysuria, chest pain, and shortness of breath. Further questioning of her daughter revealed that her mother has had some cognitive deterioration over the past few weeks/months; that she is more forgetful, intermittently more or less confused, occasionally incontinent, and incapable of performing activities of daily living on her own. Dementia has not been formally diagnosed. Her daughter stated that Ms. ___ had been acting more confused over the last few days, and that the confusion was waxing and waning.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK PQ147 CT HEADNECK INDICATION: ___ year old female with presyncope and unilateral visual changes. Evaluate for stroke. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous MDCT axial images were obtained through the brain without contrast material. Subsequently, helically acquired rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during the infusion of 70 mL of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered, curved reformatted and segmented images were generated on a dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: This study involved 5 CT acquisition phases with dose indices as follows: 1) CT Localizer Radiograph 2) CT Localizer Radiograph 3) Sequenced Acquisition 6.4 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 56.1 mGy (Head) DLP = 897.1 mGy-cm. 4) Stationary Acquisition 9.0 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 98.0 mGy (Head) DLP = 49.0 mGy-cm. 5) Spiral Acquisition 4.9 s, 38.8 cm; CTDIvol = 31.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,231.9 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 2,178 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST: There is no evidence of no evidence of infarction, hemorrhage, edema, ormass effect. Prominent ventricles and sulci are compatible with age-related volume loss. Periventricular white matter hypodensities are consistent with chronic small vessel ischemic disease. There is a 9 mm calcification/ossification along the inner table of the right middle temporal fossa (series 4, image 10) which may represent dural calcification versus a calcified meningioma. Right frontal sinus disease is seen. Mucosal thickening of the ethmoid sinuses is noted. There is a retention cyst in the left maxillary sinus. The visualized portion of the mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. CTA HEAD: There is irregularity, with no high grade stenosis, of the basilar, vertebral, internal carotid and middle cerebral arteries, likely secondary to atherosclerosis. Otherwise, the vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches appear normal without occlusion or aneurysm formation. The dural venous sinuses are patent. CTA NECK: There is atherosclerotic calcification of the aortic arch. Atherosclerotic calcification of bilateral carotid bulbs is also seen with no stenosis by NASCET criteria. There is multifocal irregularity of the internal carotid and vertebral arteries, likely secondary to atherosclerosis. In addition, there are superimposed beaded appearance of the right and left cervical internal carotid arteries, most prominently seen in the right just proximal to the petrous segment (series ___, image 60). Carotid artery just proximal to the horizontal Otherwise, the carotid and vertebral arteries and their major branches are patent without evidence of occlusion. There is no evidence of internal carotid stenosis by NASCET criteria. OTHER: There are patchy regions of ground-glass opacity in the left upper lobe. The left thyroid gland is enlarged and nodular, which may represent multinodular goiter. There are multiple prominent AP window, prevascular and paratracheal lymph nodes, measuring up to 1 cm. There is a 0.6 cm right nasal skin lesion. Degenerative changes are noted throughout the cervical spine. IMPRESSION: 1. Senescent volume loss and probable small vessel ischemic changes. Otherwise, no acute intracranial abnormality. 2. Beaded appearance of the bilateral distal cervical internal carotid arteries compatible with fibromuscular dysplasia. In addition, there is superimposed irregularity of the internal carotid artery and intracranial vasculature, likely secondary to atherosclerosis.

Ms. ___ is an ___ year old woman with a past medical history of T2DM, hypertension, atrial fibrillation on coumadin, three vessel disease CAD (medically managed), heart failure with EF ___, and pulmonary hypertension who presented with lightheadedness, right amarousis fugax, emesis and possible worsening confusion who was acutely treated for orthostatic hypotension and UTI. #Lightheadedness/Orthostasis: Ms. ___ presented because of dizziness, lightheadedness, and temporary loss of vision in her right eye with standing during a ___ session the morning of admission. Her symptoms were present upon sitting or standing, and had been present for the last few days prior to admission, but may have been going on more chronically, as her daughter reported that when Ms. ___ came back from ___ to live with her, she was already primarily wheel-chair bound because she had been having difficulty standing in ___ secondary to lightheadness. Differential included orthostasis, autonomic dysfunction because of longstanding uncontrolled diabetes, infection such as UTI causing systemic vasodilation, or basilar insufficiency, the last of which is less likely because initial evaluation in the ED with CTA head and neck imaging showed no flow-limiting stenosis. The Neurology team was consulted in the ED and concluded that her amaourosis fugax symptoms were likely explained by her known orthostatic hypotension and transient hypoperfusion through a stenosed right ophthalmic artery. The diagnosis of orthostatic hypotension was supported throughout her stay with positive orthostatic vital signs, which were most likely worsened by vasodilation in the setting of UTI (see below), CHF medications that she had been recently prescribed that caused systemic vasodilation, as well as decreased PO intake recently. She was treated conservatively at first by decreasing the dose of her isosorbide mononitrate from 120 mg PO daily to 90 mg PO daily, but she remained symptomatic. The medication was then stopped altogether, after which she was no longer symptomatic with dizziness or lightheadedness upon standing, but she remained positive on objective orthostatic measurements. She did not experience any chest pain after stopping the isosorbide mononitrate. She was also treated with several 500mL NS boluses to support her blood pressures, which the team felt comfortable proceeding with as Ms. ___ did not appear volume up on examination (non elevated JVP; no crackles on pulmonary examination; no lower extremity edema), and was still symptomatically dizzy upon standing. On the day of discharge, her torsemide was also discontinued given significant orthostasis and reported poor PO intake. She remained orthostatic by vital signs, but continued to have decreased symptoms. Her orthostasis will likely persist as it has been long standing, and there is likely a diabetic neuropathy component to her symptoms. Goal was to decrease her risk of falls, and that is why the above medications discontinued. Ms. ___ should continue to use her wheelchair at home as much as possible to minimize fall risk. She should have 24 hour care and should not ambulate without assistance. #UTI: Prior to presentation Ms. ___ had been experiencing worsening orthostasis, emesis 1x, and fluctuating changes in mental status, with initial workup in the ED showing positive urinalysis with nitrites. Urine culture showed mixed bacterial flora consistent with skin or genital contamination. She was given 1 dose of cefepime in the ED, then transitioned to 1 gm IV ceftriaxone q24h while inpatient, for a total of 3 days for uncomplicated UTI. As per her daughter, her mental status returned to baseline at the time of discharge. #HFrEF: Ms. ___ heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (EF ___ is a result of ischemic cardiomyopathy. She remained euvolemic throughout this admission, and did not acutely decompensate. She was being treated with high doses of vasodilatory agents, such as the isosorbide mononitrate, most likely contributing to her symptomatic orthostasis (see above). Her isosorbide mononitrate was first reduced in dosing, then discontinued, without any development of anginal symptoms. Torsemide was also discontinued on the day of discharge given persistently positive orthostatic measurements and reportedly decreased PO intake recently, with no evidence of volume overloaded state on exam (see above). Aspirin, atorvastatin, metoprolol, lisinopril and spironolactone were continued. Daily electrolytes, ins/outs, and weights were monitored throughout her admission. Given Ms. ___ multiple comorbidities and increased risk of arrhythmias, she was also monitored on telemetry throughout her admission with no worrisome changes or decompensations. #Atrial fibrillation: Ms. ___ has a history of atrial fibrillation with LV thrombus and cardiac areas of hypokinesis that is managed with digoxin and coumadin in the outpatient setting. She remained in atrial fibrillation throughout her hospitalization, as monitored both by telemetry and physical exam. Her INR remained therapeutic between ___ throughout her stay, and monitored daily. Her home dose digoxin was continued at 0.125mg PO daily, as was her home dose metoprolol succinate XL 25 mg PO daily. She was continued on her warfarin as scheduled, 4 mg PO 2X/WEEK ___ 3 mg PO 5X/WEEK ___, and monitored on telemetry throughout her admission with no worrisome changes or decompensations requiring further therapeutic intervention. #T2DM: Ms. ___ was only recently diagnosed with T2DM when she saw a doctor for the first time after over ___ years of no medical care in ___. Her T2DM is poorly controlled, with her last HgbA1c of 13.9 on ___. She is on metformin and glipizide at home, but was managed with insulin sliding scale, diabetic diet, and daily blood glucose level monitoring throughout her admission. She was restarted on her home medications at discharge. #CAD: Recent cardiac catheterization in ___ showed severe three vessel CAD (EF25-30%). The patient and her family opted for medical management of her severe coronary artery disease. She takes aspirin 81 mg PO daily and atorvastatin 80mg PO daily at home, and these medications were continued throughout her hospitalization.

Mr. ___ is a ___ yom with a hisory DM and ESRD s/p DDRT ___ c/b delayed graft function and CAD s/p recent NSTEMI in early ___ treated medically, who presented with feeling unwell with profuse diarrhea found to have GNR bacteremia and c. diff colitis. He was also found to be in DKA ketones in his urine and an elevated glucose in the 400s. He was transferred to the MICU for insulin drip and started on PO vanc for his c. diff infection and ceftriaxone for his UTI/sepsis due to urinary tract infection. His DKA resolved, but he was then found to have acute renal failure in his transplanted kidney. He was eventually called out to the floor where he was stable but required intermittent HD due to impaired kidney function and poor UOP. He also was persistently anemic requiring several blood transfusions. He was otherwise asymptomatic. His UOP improved in the days prior to discharge with boluses of IV Lasix, and he will be discharged with close renal transplant and cardiac follow up. # DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS: Pt admitted to the hospital and found to have DKA with glucose in 400s ketones in urine. First episode of DKA. Likely in the setting of not getting insulin with concomitant infection with c. diff, UTI, and E.coli bacteremia as triggers. Patient maintained on insulin gtt until gap closed. ___ consulted and provided recs on ongoing insulin regimen. # E. coli Bacteremia # UTI: GNR bacteremia with only clear source being urinary tract. Could potentially be in the setting of GI translocation ___ colitis and immunosuppression. Patient initially treated with cefepime, narrowed to ceftriaxone based on sensitivities. Patient finished 14 day course while in the hospital, from last clear blood culture (___). # Anuric Acute Renal Failure: #Acute Tubular Necrosis: Urine sediment confirmed muddy brown casts likely ___ to hypovolemia from C diff, tacrolimus toxicity. Should also consider rejection. Patient started on renal replacement therapy in the MICU due to escalating oxygen requirement and acidosis. Patient did have return of kidney function and UOP to Lasix and metolazone dosing by time of transfer back to the floor. His UOP was fairly poor for quite some time while on the floor but was finally responsive to boluses of IV lasix. UOP was > 1L in day prior to discharge. He will be discharged to have renal function monitored by ___ transplant nephrology. #C. diff colitis: Patient treated for severe C. diff colitis given underlying immunosuppression with PO vancomycin and IV metronidazole. Patient to continue PO vancomycin for 2 weeks after last dose of ceftriaxone (end date ___. # Anemia: Patient's Hb 7.5 on ___ (stable from ___ was in the 7s over the last couple days without evidence of bleeding or symtpoms. Anemia is likely ___ ACD, given recent ferritin >900. He required several units of blood throughout the course of the hospitalization. # NSTEMI: Elevated trop with flat MB with worsening TWI and ST-D on EKG., no clear trigger. Atrus cardiology consulted. Patient placed on heparin gtt for 48 hours. Patient optimized medical management (aspirin 81mg, ticagrelor 90mg BID, rosuvasatin, metoprolol). Repeat TTE similar to prior. Unable to continue lisinopril due to renal failure. Follow up with cardiology as outpatient #S/P Renal tx: Delayed graft function.

Per ___, his friend: He has been doing well until this week. Since about ___ he has not slept well and this may have happened two weeks ago also. On that prior occasion, he was awake for two days straight and then slept for one whole day. He had been rejected two weeks ago by one college and became scarred. Now he stays awake waiting to hear about another school. This time, he has not slept since ___. He went to the gym last night and then took tablets of melatonin at 2 AM. He went to his room, closed the door. This morning, his friend ___, his room mate that has known and lived with him for one year, was going to go to class at 8:55 AM and ___ was still not awake. He went into the room to find him in bed, covered in blankets, breathing quickly and deep. ___ called him, shook and nothing happened. He put water on his face, then tickled his nose with a tissue and nothing happened. He called ___ and they instructed to turn him on his side. When he did this, he noted that ___ breathed even more quickly and was rigid with arms straight without any rhythmic movement. The heating system is old and seems to have been central. He usually closes his door. Nothing like this has happened before. Per the patient when more conversant later: He has lost 20 kg of weight in the last two months. He has been coughing recently, but there was no blood in his sputum. He had one episode of some bright red blood with stool a week or so ago. His vision and hearing have both been slightly worse over this period also. He saw an optometrist who seems to have found one eye myopic and the other presbiopic. Over the last two days he has had nucal pain and posterior headache that has been worsening. There have been no head injuries or other trauma, but he has been frequently going to the gym. He has been very stressed waiting to hear about his college applications. He also states not taking any other medications, but he did take melatonin twice yesterday. There is no double vision, but on looking to the extreme left, objects fatten slightly and blur. Further review of systems was negative except as above.

This is a ___ yo left-handed male presenting with three nights of sleep deprivation found to be difficult to arouse, then with involuntary bilateral semi-rhythmic movements in the setting of multiple life stressors, 20 kg unintentional weight loss, and mildly impaired hearing and vision. # NEURO: In the emergency room, the patient was started on phenytoin and acyclovir for concern of meningitis. Lumbar puncture results were consistent with an inflammatory process with mild pleocytosis, though no clear lymphocytic or neutrophilic predominance, and negative gram stain consistent for aseptic meningitis. Preliminary infectious work-up was reassuring, with negative HSV, CMV, and HIV studies (EBV/lyme serologies, CSF/stool studies pending). Concern for systemtic inflammatory/autoimmune processes was low given ESR and CRP were both within normal limites. EEG results were also reassuring for no epileptiform discharges, seizures, or focal discharges. Acyclovir and phenytoin was discontinued on hospital day two. Clinical symptoms were significantly improved at that time with stable mental status, near full motor strength at the upper and lower extremities, and increased sensation at the right lower leg, which was initially absent on admission. # PSYCH: The patient endorsed depressive symptoms since childhood, acutely worsening over the past month with active suicidal ideations and plans. The psychiatry team evaluted the patient on hospital day two and found that the patient met ___ criteria. Medical work-up from a neurologic perspective appeared most consistent with clinically resolving aseptic meningitis. Patient was transferred to an inpatient psychiatry unit on ___ given that he remained at high risk for self-harm with concrete plans and no protective factors identified.

Chief Complaint: Dizziness, nausea, vomiting Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: Mr. ___ is a ___ with CAD c/b STEMI s/p DES x2 (___), DMII (diet-controlled), HLD, and recent admission (___) at ___ for NSAID-induced ___ with nephrotic syndrome, as well as admission at ___ (___) for basal ganglia ischemic stroke s/p tPA administration, with course c/b IPH secondary to right temporal lobe mass, presenting with dizziness and nausea. After his most recent admission he was discharged without residual deficits and has been living at home, doing well. The patient is an imperfect historian, but reports ___ days prior to this admission he began having intermittent dizziness, tinnitus, as well as nausea, vomiting, periumbilical abdominal pain, dyspnea, palpitations, and chills. The time course is somewhat unclear as to which symptoms came first. His symptoms have acutely worsened the morning of admission and he has been persistently dizzy since waking up this morning, unable to tolerate PO, and unable to walk secondary to dizziness. He denies fevers, chest pain, focal numbness/weakness/tingling of any extremity, or speech problems. Neurology was consulted in the ED. Impression: "Given positive orthostatics, positionally related dizziness, and some improvement noted since fluids started, his dizziness is most likely due to orthostasis. His exam appears mostly unchanged compared to previous, with the exception of bidirectional nonfatiguable nystagmus, which was not previously noted in notes. He did have a small vermal bleed in his last admission, which could potentially produce this finding. It would not be unreasonable to obtain a repeat MRI brain however, though the suspicion is lower. He does not have any EOM abnormalities however or other brainstem findings. His NCHCT does not show new bleed, old blood has been reabsorbed, his mass appears stable. The imaging being stable is reassuring that a new neurologic process is less likely to be involved in regards to his symptoms today. - consider medicine admission for treatment/workup of ___, elevated proBNP, abdominal pain - will follow on consult service - consider MRI head w/o contrast (preferably with contrast, but Cr 5.5) once admitted" In the ED, initial vitals: 99.6 74 182/104 20 99% RA - Labs notable for: BNP 37K (baseline unknown) WBC 11.2 Hb 9.6 Cr 5.5 (at baseline) Lactate 2.0 Trop 0.02 - Imaging notable for: NCHCT IMPRESSION: 1.

Mr. ___ is a ___ with PMHx of CAD (s/p PCI), sCHF (EF ___, inducible sustained VT s/p ICD ___, PAF on coumadin, presents after VT arrest due to ICD lead impedance complication. ACUTE ISSUES: ============= # Ventricular Tachycardia: Patient with lead malfunction which incorrectly sensed VT, delivered inappropriate shocks which put him into VT. There was not a lead fracture on CXR. The malfunction was thought due to an issue with lead impedance. He was temporarily on an amiodarone drip s/p VT, but was discontinued. On ___, the patient underwent sucsessful lead revision. Had small hematoma around ICD post-procedure; stable on discharge. To have follow up with EP next week. # Stroke: Found to have acute non-fluent aphasia and right facial droop with mild right sided weakness around 12:30 on routine nursing check. He could follow commands but speech was dysarthric and nonsensical. He was last seen well by the same nurse at 12:06. A CODE STROKE was called; Neurology evaluated the patient, and he underwent NCHCT and CTA Head & Neck that showed left MCA ischemia. Etiology of stroke thought most likely embolic from left atrial appendage clot later identified on ECHO in setting of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. At time of CVA, INR was still 2.0, so patient was transitioned from coumadin to rivaroxaban. Had initial improvement in symptoms with supine positioning and with-holding blood pressure medications. However, later that evening the patient required dopamine to elevate his blood pressures in setting of recrudescence of symptoms with SBPs 90-100s. He was transfered to the CCU for further pressor administration. A central line was placed and he was transitioned from dopamine to norepinephrine, then to phenylephrine due to ectopy. He was kept on pressors for 48 hours and then weaned off, without recurrence of symptoms. Further blood pressure medications, other than metoprolol, were held on discharge to allow for continued permissive hypertension. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== # Chronic systolic heart failure: Patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy with EF 25% on ECHO this admission, showing regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with akinesis of the distal segments and an aneurysmal apex with mild dyskinesis. Continued home metoprolol, but held ___ in setting of permissive hypertension. Sent home on furosemide 20mg every other day. # Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Currently in sinus rhythm, but atrial fibrillation recurred later in his hospital stay. Admitted on warfarin, placed on heparin IV ___, and transitioned to rivaroxaban post-lead revision in setting of stroke and sub-therapeutic INR. # CAD: History of anteroseptal MI s/p LAD ___, s/p stent left posterior descending and OM in ___. Continued ASA and metoprolol, but held other BP lowering meds (losartan, imdur) in setting of recent stroke. # H/o LV aneurysm: ECHO this admission showed aneurysmal apex with mild dyskinesis. No thrombi in LV, but thrombus in RV and left atrial apendage. Discharged on rivaroxaban. # HLD: Continued home pravastatin. # HTN: Held home amlodipine and losartan in setting of permissive hypertension for recent stroke. # Cough: Being treated for pneumonia as outpatient with amoxicillin (started ___, finished seven days on ___. # Rheumatoid Arthritis: Patient restarted on prednisone 10mg as outpatient one month ago, tapered to 5mg one week ago.

IMPRESSION: Compared to chest radiograph since ___, most recently ___. Relatively uniform opacification of the right lower hemithorax persists. The explanation is uncertain, either posteriorly layering pleural effusion or severe consolidation or collapse of the lower lobe. Chest CT would be definitive in distinguishing among these possibilities. Left lower lobe consolidation and previous mild pulmonary edema have improved. Heart size is normal. Cardiopulmonary support devices are in standard placements unchanged. RECOMMENDATION(S): Consider chest CT for explanation pleural pulmonary findings. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old woman with s/p liver transplant// evaluate volume status pt on CVVH Surg: ___ (abdominal closure) COMPARISON: Chest x-ray from ___ at 13:21 FINDINGS: The ET tube lies approximately 5.1 cm above the carina, at the upper edge of the clavicular heads. NG tube extends beneath diaphragm, off film. Right IJ sheath overlies the mid/distal SVC. Right IJ Swan-Ganz catheter probably lies in the proximal right pulmonary artery--full characterization is somewhat limited due to patient rotation. Allowing for differences in position and technique, cardiomediastinal silhouette is probably unchanged. It appears slightly prominent, but this is likely accentuated by low lung volumes and lordotic positioning. There is mild vascular plethora, also likely accentuated by low lung volumes. Increased retrocardiac density is again seen, compatible left lower lobe collapse and/or consolidation. No gross left effusion. Hazy opacity at the right base likely reflects a layering small right pleural effusion. IMPRESSION: Lines and tubes as described. The ET tube lies approximately 5.1 cm above the carina. Clinical correlation regarding advancement is requested. Allowing for low lung volumes, no definite change in cardiac silhouette. Layering right pleural effusion. Increased retrocardiac density consistent with left lower lobe collapse and/or consolidation. These findings are similar to the prior study. Apparent vascular plethora is likely accentuated by low lung volumes. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: ABD (SINGLE VIEW ONLY) IN O.R. INDICATION: Rule out retained lap pad prior to closing during abdominal surgery. Performed per protocol, though no clinical concern for retained material. TECHNIQUE: Intraoperative AP view of the chest and abdomen. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: The patient is on a temperature control pad or other device that introduces artifact throughout the images.

NG tube, with tip below diaphragm. Right Swan-Ganz catheter tip proximal right pulmonary artery. Metallic surgical instrument overlies the chest. There are scattered linear densities that are thought to represent surgical clips and, also, skin staples which may be either on or adjacent to the patient. Inspiratory lung volumes are low with some increased retrocardiac density consistent with left lower lobe collapse and/or consolidation. Allowing for this, no focal radiopacity suggestive of a lap pad is identified. IMPRESSION: Limited exam due to considerable overlying artifact. However, no radiodensity suggestive of a lap pad is detected. If clinical concern were high, then a dedicated radiograph of the item of interest could be obtained to help for further assessment.

Head CT was negative for acute process. Infectious workup including CXR, urinalysis, and blood cultures were negative. Toxicology screen was negative. In terms of reversible causes of dementia, TSH and RPR were normal and B12 was low normal (would consider methylmalonic acid testing as an outpatient). She remained pleasant and interactive in the morning and with sundowning starting around 5 ___ with severe aggression and paranoid delusions. She was seen by psychiatry who recommended titration of antipsychotic medications. She was discharged on 5mg olanzapine at night and should follow up with her primary care medication to discuss possibly downtitrating this medication as an outpatient. Overall her agitated and paranoid behavior was thought to be secondary to progressive dementia. She was not deemed to be safe to be alone and 24 hour care was recommended. After several family meetings decision was made that patient will go to stay with her niece ___ at her home where 24 hour care can be provided. Her family will apply in the meantime for expanded care coverage through ___. If this is eventually arranged to cover 12 hour daytime care then she may eventually be able to return home (son stays in apartment overnight). # Fever: had single isolated fever to 100.6 during 11 day hospital stay. She was asymptomatic without localizing symptoms. Repeat CXR and urinalysis were negative for infection. Blood cultures were sent and were pending at time of discharge. # CKD: creatinine mostly at baseline. Did increase on several days when PO intake was poor and home Lasix was held on those days. Creatinine at discharge was 1.7 which was within range of baseline # DM: per chart however does not appear to be on meds. Monitored on insulin sliding scale but did not require supplemental insulin # Afib: rate controlled, hx of bradycardia with pm in place. Continued home apixaban and metoprolol # HLD: continued home atorvastatin # ___, chronic dCHF: seen by cardiology recently, thought to be due to pulmonary hypertension/elevated filling pressures as well as decreased physical activity/venous stasis. She was continued on home Lasix at 20mg daily dose (had recently been increased to BID) given at times poor PO intake secondary to agitation or lethargy. > 30 minutes spent on discharge coordination and planning

Mr. ___ is a ___ yo man with a past medical history notable for atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter on coumadin status post cardioversion (___), CAD s/p LAD PCI ___ and CABG ___, CHF, CKD (baseline Cr 1.3-1.5), renal artery stenosis s/p stents (___), and bilateral carotid artery stenosis s/p L ICA stent ___ posterior meningioma s/p resection, who presented ___ with transient word-finding difficulties. During his ED course, neurologic deficits recurred with NCHCT revealing a left temporal intraparenchymal hemorrhage. CTA showed a likely chronically occluded R ICA and high grade stenosis (~75%) of the L ICA stent. Pt was admitted to the neurologic ICU for further management. Pt's bleed was presumed to be due to a hemorrhagic conversion of an ischemic infarct. MRI did not reveal an underlying lesion or microhemorrhages. The hemorrhagic conversion was likely related to pt's use of ASA, Plavix and warfarin. These medications were all held at admission. Pt's infarct was felt to be an embolic infarct either due to a cardiac source (given his history of atrial fibrillation and recent cardioversion) or atherosclerotic source (given his severe atherosclerosis). TTE did not show an intracardiac thrombus. For management, systolic blood pressure goals were between 120 and 160 to maintain adequate cerebral perfusion given pt's severe atherosclerotic disease while also preventing expansion of the bleed. INR was reversed to a goal of <1.5. Neurosurgery was consulted who deferred surgical management. Pt's statin was initially held as there was concern this would worsen the hemorrhage. On hospital day #4, aspirin 81 mg daily was restarted. This was started to prevent stent thrombosis and also for secondary stroke prevention. Warfarin will be restarted on ___. Pt's cardiologist was contacted who was in agreement that the risk associated with starting dual anti-platelet in conjunction with warfarin outweighed the benefits. Once INR is therapeutic on warfarin, plans are to discontinue aspirin 81mg daily. Pt's PCP and cardiologist have been contacted regarding this plan. Otherwise, pt's renal function remained stable during hospitalization. ======================================================= AHA/ASA Core Measures for Intracerebral Hemorrhage 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Epigastric pain. Evaluate for abdominal aortic aneurysm. COMPARISON: CT Torso from ___. FINDINGS: The proximal aorta measures 2.4 cm in maximal diameter. The mid aorta measures 2.3 cm in diameter. The distal aorta measures 1.9 cm in diameter. The common iliac arteries measure 1.4 cm in diameter bilaterally. There is normal color flow throughout the aorta. No significant atherosclerotic disease is seen. The bilateral kidneys are without stones or hydronephrosis. The right kidney measures 11.2 cm and the left kidney 10.6 cm in length. IMPRESSION: No evidence of abdominal aortic aneurysm. Radiology Report HISTORY: Right-sided weakness with nonfocal neurologic exam. Evaluate for TIA or stroke. TECHNIQUE: MDCT acquired contiguous axial images were obtained through the head. No contrast was administered. Coronal and sagittal reformats reviewed. COMPARISON: CT of the head from ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute intracranial hemorrhage, edema, mass effect, or vascular territorial infarction. The ventricles and sulci are proportionally prominent, consistent with age related involutional changes. Periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities are suggestive of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. No fracture is identified. The visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial process. Radiology Report HISTORY: Right-sided abdominal pain. Evaluate for appendicitis. TECHNIQUE: MDCT acquired axial images were obtained from the lung bases to the pubic symphysis after enteric contrast only. Coronal and sagittal reformats reviewed. COMPARISON: CT from ___. FINDINGS: The lower chest is unremarkable. ABDOMEN: Limited, noncontrast views of the liver, intrahepatic biliary tree, the spleen, adrenal glands, and pancreas are unremarkable. Minimal dilation of the CBD is stable and likely secondary to cholecystectomy. An extra renal pelvis is noted on the right side, stable. The kidneys are symmetric in size, without hydronephrosis, stone, or mass. There is no perinephric fluid collection or stranding. The stomach is collapsed. The small bowel, and large bowel are normal in caliber. There is equivocal mild wall thickening at ascending, most likely due to mixing of contrast and fecal material. There is colonic diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis. The appendix is normal. There is no ascites, fluid collection, pneumoperitoneum, or focal mesenteric fat stranding. There is no lymphadenopathy. The abdominal aorta is normal in caliber. PELVIS: The urinary bladder and rectum are unremarkable. There are no stones within either ureter or within the bladder. The there is no pelvic free fluid, lymphadenopathy, or mass. The uterus and ovaries are not well-seen. MUSCULOSKELETAL: There are no destructive osseous lesions concerning for malignancy or infection. Stable compression fracture of L1. IMPRESSION: 1. Normal appendix. 2. No evidence of nephrolithiasis or hydronephrosis. 3. Diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis. 4. Equivocal mild wall of the ascending colon vs artifact from oral contrast mixing with stool. This may be artifactual. Findings could be confirmed with outpatient colonoscopy. NOTIFICATION: Impression #4 was communicated to Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ on ___ at 9:05 pm via telephone. Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH INDICATION: Epigastric pain, right-sided abdominal pain, evaluation. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, the lung volumes are unchanged. Status post left shoulder surgery. No evidence of pleural effusions or pneumothorax. The size of the cardiac silhouette continues to be borderline, without evidence of pulmonary edema. In the interval, the tortuosity of the thoracic aorta has increased and the diameter of the aortic arch and aortic knob also appears increased. This effect could in large parts be due to patient rotation. However, there also is the possibility of an aortic disease at the level of the arch and proximal part of the descending aorta. Therefore, if clinically possible, a CTA of the aorta should be performed to rule out acute aortic disease. At the time of dictation and observation, 8:52 a.m., the referring physician, ___, was paged for notification. At 9:40 a.m. on the same day, findings were discussed over the telephone with Dr. ___ the recommendation for a CTA. Radiology Report HISTORY: Aortic stenosis and parkinsonism who presents with left-sided chest pain and dysphagia. On chest radiograph found to have widened mediastinum. Concern for enlarged thyroid. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph ___, CT torso ___. TECHNIQUE: Axial helical MDCT images were obtained of the chest after the administration of IV contrast in the arterial phase. Multiplanar reformatted images were generated in the coronal and sagittal planes as well as bilateral oblique maximum intensity projection images. DLP: 478.30 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: The thyroid is not imaged. The trachea is midline and the airways are patent to the subsegmental level. Minimal atelectasis is noted in bilateral lung bases. The lung parenchyma is otherwise clear without nodule or focal consolidation. The pleural surfaces are clear without focal thickening, effusion, or pneumothorax. Heart size is normal with minimal characterization of aortic valve and coronary artery calcifications due to contrast administration. A mildly tortuous thoracic aortic arch is normal in caliber, with note made of lumenal ulcerative atheromatous plaques. There is no evidence of aneurysm or dissection. The main pulmonary artery is dilated to a maximum diameter of 3.4 cm suggestive of chronic pulmonary hypertension. There is no pulmonary embolus to the subsegmental level. There is no supraclavicular, axillary, hilar or mediastinal lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. This study is not tailored for the evaluation of subdiaphragmatic structures; however, within those limitations, the visualized portions of the upper abdominal organs are grossly unremarkable. There is a small hiatal hernia. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There are no focal blastic or lytic lesions in the visualized osseous structures concerning for malignancy. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute aortic pathology or pulmonary embolus. Widened mediastinum on radiograph is likely due to a combination of mild thoracic aortic tortuosity as well as patient rotation. 2. Dilated main PA suggestive of chronic pulmonary hypertension. 3. Thoracic aortic atheromatous subtle ulcerative plaques at the level of the arch, no thoracic aneurysm. 4. Hiatal hernia.

Enlarged cardiac silhouette. Mild to moderate interstitial edema. Right base opacity may relate to fluid overload, however, consolidation due to pneumonia may be present in the appropriate clinical setting. ___ Liver US: Patent hepatic vasculature with appropriate waveforms. ___ TTE: The left atrium is dilated. The right atrium is moderately dilated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity is mildly dilated. Overall left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed (LVEF = 45 %) secondary to hypokinesis of the inferior and posterior walls. [Intrinsic left ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of valvular regurgitation.] Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). The right ventricular free wall thickness is normal. The right ventricular cavity is mildly dilated with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The number of aortic valve leaflets cannot be determined. The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). There is no aortic valve stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. An eccentric, posteriorly directed jet of Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Due to the eccentric nature of the regurgitant jet, its severity may be significantly underestimated (Coanda effect). There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a very small pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___ the left ventricular ejection fraction is somewhat reduced.

The patient is a ___ year-old male with a history of diastolic congestive heart failure, prostate cancer status-post radiation and cyberknife, hepatitis C virus cirrhosis complicated by hepatocellular carcinoma status-post liver transplant ___ (mild cellular rejection in ___, recent right brachiocephalic AV fistula ___ for chronic kidney disease. He presented for worsening shortness of breath and dyspnea on exertion, found to have decreased systolic function on echocardiogram, and improved with diuresis. On the morning of ___, patient developed acute facial swelling concerning for angioedema in the setting of recent lisinopril. He was given methylprednisone, Benadryl and transferred to the ICU for airway monitoring. In the ICU, he was monitored for airway compromise and was transferred back to the floor following improvement in his symptoms. He was discharged at ___ without any diuretic. His immune suppression was titrated and should be closely monitored outpatient. #Angioedema, likely ACEi-associated: On the morning of ___, patient developed acute facial swelling concerning for angioedema in the setting of recent lisinopril. He was given methylprednisone, Benadryl and transferred to the ICU for airway monitoring. In the ICU, he was monitored for airway compromise and was transferred back to the floor following improvement in his symptoms. Allergy was consulted and described a possibility of starting ___ at some point in the future, although this does carry some risk for repeated angioedema. He should not be started on ACE inhibitors in the future, and this was added as an allergy to his list. #Acute on chronic systolic congestive heart failure: The patient was admitted with signs of volume overload on exam, with elevated BNP and CXR with interstitial edema. He had a transthoracic echocardiogram which showed mildly depressed ayatolic dysfunction (EF = 45 %) secondary to hypokinesis of the inferior and posterior walls. EKG was unchanged from prior and his troponins remained flat at approximately 0.5. He had no symptoms of acute coronary syndrome. He was given IV and subsequently oral Lasix diuresis until he reached euvolemia. He should follow up with his cardiologist as an outpatient for his systolic congestive heart failure. His home pravastatin was switched to atorvastatin 40mg daily and this was continued upon discharge. #Chronic Kidney Disease, stage V: The patient has chronic kidney disease with unclear and fluctuating baseline creatinine. He recently had placement of an AV fistula. He presented with high creatinine that did not appear to be acutely elevated over at least the last few weeks. Nephrology was consulted and recommended diuresis as above and oral bicarbonate for non-anion-gap acidosis. There was no indication for urgent dialysis during this hospitalization. The patient should follow up in the outpatient setting for his chronic kidney disease. He should continue taking 650mg bicarb twice daily. #Non anion-gap metabolic acidosis: The patient was found to have a non-anion-gap acidosis that was attributed to his chronic kidney disease and decreased acid clearance. This improved with diuresis and oral bicarbonate as above. #Hyperkalemia: The patient presented with borderline hyperkalemia that was attributed to his chronic kidney disease and decreased clearance of potassium. This improved with diuresis and oral bicarbonate as above. #Normocytic Anemia (baseline Hb ___: The patient presented with a normocytic anemia below baseline. He has been worked up in the past and iron and ferritin were normal in ___. EGD in ___ showed varices at the lower third of the esophagus (ligation) and erosions and superficial ulcers in the antrum. B12 was 1520 and folate was normal. There were no signs of active bleeding. The patient should follow up in the clinic with a repeat CBC and discussion of possible epogen therapy as appropriate with his chronic kidney disease. #Troponinemia: The patient was found to have elevated but stable troponin of approximately 0.5 in the absence of acute coronary symptoms. This is likely in the setting of possible mild demand ischemia and stage V chronic kidney disease. EKG was stable from prior. He was continued on his home aspirin, statin, and carvedilol. #Hepatitis C Virus status-post liver transplant: The patient had a right upper quadrant ultrasound that was normal without evidence of ascites. He had no signs of liver failure on exam. Although his AST was very mildly elevated on admission, his transaminases otherwise remained in normal range. His home immunosuppression regimen was adjusted for discharge: Everolimus 2mg BID and Tacrolimus 1mg BID, home Mycophenolate Mofetil unchanged. He should follow up in the clinic with his transplant hepatologist. #Hypertension: The patient remained hypertensive but stable. He was continued on his home carvedilol, hydralazine, imdur, and Norvasc.

[] Patient presented with elevated INR peaked to 4.3. His warfarin was slowly restarted. Recommend close monitoring of his INR and possible education on diet while on warfarin. [] Due to elevated blood glucose levels, increased his glargine to 18 units and added Humalog 6 units at lunch and dinner. However discharged on only Humalog 6 units at dinner and glargine 18 units due to concern for insulin administration. Please follow-up outpatient and adjust insulin regiment as needed. [] Torsemide dose was changed to 100MG Daily. Of note patient gets most of his home medications in blister packs from pharmacy, but torsemide is not included in this. Please make sure that he takes his torsemide daily and continue to monitor volume status and adjust dose as needed. ACUTE ISSUES ============ #Dyspnea on exertion #Acute on chronic HFpEF exacerbation ( EF 55% ___ Patient presented with increasing dyspnea on exertion, exam notable for lower extremity edema. Chest x-ray notable for vascular congestion, history of HFpEF (last echo 63% in ___ managed primarily on carvedilol 25mg BID and torsemide 40mg daily increased from 20mg daily. Repeat echo ___, noted EF 55%, Unclear trigger, likely due to medication changes versus dietary indiscretions . Unclear baseline weight as patient does not measure weight daily.

FINDINGS: Compared with ___ , the ossific fragment at the base of fifth metatarsal as well as the proximal segment of the remaining portion of the fifth metatarsal bone have been removed. Otherwise, doubt significant interval change. Again seen is diffuse osteopenia and varus angulation centered in the hindfoot, with deformity of a distal talus and navicular bones, compatible or Charcot osteoarthropathy. Scattered lucent foci are again noted in the second and third metatarsal bones, possibly areas of more pronounced osteopenia. No cortical transgression is identified in these areas. Soft tissue swelling and subcutaneous emphysema is consistent with recent surgery. A bandage is in place. IMPRESSION: Interval resection of the proximal portions of the fifth metatarsal bone. No new fracture or dislocation detected. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old man with known Charcot // surgical planning for Charcot TECHNIQUE: Contiguous helical MDCT images were obtained through the head right foot and ankle without IV contrast. Multiplanar axial, coronal, sagittal and thin section bone algorithm reconstructed images were generated. Deformity of the midfoot limits optimal reconstruction in the coronal and sagittal planes. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 9.8 s, 20.8 cm; CTDIvol = 14.1 mGy (Body) DLP = 293.3 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 293 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Radiographs of the right foot ___. FINDINGS: The tibiotalar and subtalar joints are congruent with mild degenerative change. There is severe degenerative change at the talonavicular joint with bony fragmentation and flattening of the anterior talus (403b:64). Nonweightbearing views are limited for assessment of the arch, however there is apparent collapse of the transverse arch of the midfoot. There is mild inferior subluxation of the cuboid in relation to the calcaneus but no dislocation (403b:56). The fourth and fifth rays are inferiorly subluxed relative to the first through third metatarsals but in line with the cuboid. There is fragmentation of the anterior process of the calcaneus (403 b:63) but no evidence of acute fracture. The navicular-cuneiform articulations are preserved, however the lateral cuneiform is inferiorly subluxed relative to the navicular bone (401b:153). There are postoperative changes surrounding the base of the fifth metatarsal from previous resection. The margins of amputation are unremarkable. There is expected postoperative edema and scattered locules of gas (403b:81). There is mild degenerative change at the first metatarsophalangeal joint and an incidentally noted bipartite tibial hallux sesamoid. There is moderate subcutaneous edema about the ankle and foot. Vascular calcifications are extensive. The distal Achilles tendon is intact with a dorsal calcaneal enthesophyte. This study is limited for evaluation of the tendons and ligaments about the ankle, however there is no tenosynovitis and the imaged portions of the flexor, extensor and peroneal tendons are grossly intact. IMPRESSION: 1. Charcot foot with collapse of the transverse arch as detailed above. 2. Postoperative changes following resection of the base of the fifth metatarsal.

Given the lack of any other spinal signs or symptoms (despite urinary retention), as well as CT findings, they recommended no indication for MRI (pt also has pacemaker). She has minimal chronic R foot numbness which is unchanged and minimal R hip weakness ___ pain otherwise no deficits. A TLSO brace was offered for comfort. She will follow up with spine as outpatient. Pain was reasonably controlled with home gabapentin and standing acetaminophen and lidocaine patch. Tramadol was held as below given delirium and because it could have caused urinary retention as below. ___ saw and recommended rehab. # ___: Last creatinine on record was 1.2 ___. Likely combination of pre-renal and ___ urinary retention. Cr downtrended with holding ___, gentle IVF, resolved to 0.9 on discharge and downtrending. Resumed lower dose losartan as below. PVR not pathologically elevated thereafter. # toxic metabolic encephalopathy # delirium: Multiple potential causes of delirium include pain, pain medications, urinary retention, ___, medications (e.g. tramadol), hyperNa. No s/s of infection currently. Pt received several doses of Haldol and olanzapine in ED, as well as Ativan. Per ED, Ativan worked well. LFTs/TSH/Ca/Mg/phos/UCx wnl. Resolved with above mgmt. # urinary retention: pt retaining >1 L on arrival to the floor, ___ placed as pt unlikely to tolerate straight cath in setting of delirium. While this could be a sign of cord compression, her exam is otherwise reassuring and it seems more likely that this is related to medications (? tramadol given that she had a single dose prior to admission). UA negative for infection. Foley removed promptly and urinated well, PVR was minimal. # AS: unclear severity per family, chronic. BP control as below, held furosemide as above. Euvolemic on discharge. # Afib: currently rate controlled, continued home amiodarone, metoprolol. Continued home warfarin but gave a single extra dose of 1mg warfarin on ___. # ocular herpes: cont acyclovir # mild hypernatremia: resolved with IVF # CAD s/p CABG remotely: continued nitro patch, metop, BP mgmt. # HTN: continued home amlodipine, initially held losartan in setting ___ but now resolved and resumed and uptitrating. Changed to 25mg po BID on ___ from QD with BP in low 160s systolic, anticipate will require uptitration in coming days. # HLD: cont statin, fenofibrate # essential thrombocytosis: cont home hydroxyurea # glaucoma: cont brimodine and timolol eye drops > 30 minutes spent on patient care and coordination on day of discharge Anticipate <30 day stay at rehab.

Allowing for these limitations, the lung volumes are low, without focal opacities. Cardiomediastinal and hilar contours are unremarkable. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. No rib fractures are identified. A normal bowel gas pattern is seen. IMPRESSION: Low lung volumes. Otherwise, unremarkable chest radiographic examination. Of note, this study is suboptimal for the assessment of rib fractures and if there is clinical concern, dedicated rib views should be performed. Radiology Report HISTORY: Status post trauma after assault with loss of consciousness COMPARISON: None available. TECHNIQUE: Axial contiguous MDCT images were obtained through the head without administration of IV contrast. Coronal, sagittal, and thin slice bone reformations were generated. DLP: 1282.15 mGy-cm FINDINGS: Some of the images were repeated due to motion on the initial scan. There is no acute intracranial hemorrhage, edema, mass effect, or loss of gray-white matter differentiation. The sulci, ventricles and basal cisterns are normal in size and configuration. There is no calvarial fracture. Left periorbital hematoma, bilateral nasal bone fractures, nasal septum fracture, left maxillary sinus posterior wall fracture, and fluid in the left maxillary sinus are partially visualized, better seen on the concurrent facial bone CT. There is blood in the left frontal sinus. There is mucosal thickening, and fluid or blood, in bilateral ethmoidal air cells. There is a focus of secretions or globular mucosal thickening in the anterior left sphenoid sinus. Mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute intracranial injury. 2.

Coronal, sagittal and thin slice bone reformations are generated. DLP: 693.23 mGy-cm COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no acute fracture, malalignment or prevertebral soft tissue swelling. Minimal depression of the superior anterior corner of the vertebral body of C5 has associated sclerosis and appears chronic. There are chronic non-united fractures of the spinous processes of T1 and T2 with sclerotic margins. Disc space heights are preserved, and the outline of the thecal sac is grossly unremarkable, within the limitations of CT. The imaged lung apices are clear. Left maxillary sinus posterolateral wall fracture is partially visualized; concurrent head and facial bone CTs are reported separately. IMPRESSION: No cervical spine fracture or malalignment. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ male status post facial trauma with loss of consciousness COMPARISON: None available TECHNIQUE: Axial helical MDCT images were obtained through the paranasal sinuses and mandible and without administration of IV contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations were generated. DLP: 779 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: There are bilateral, extensively comminuted nasal bone fractures with rightward deviation of main distal fragments. There is a minimally displaced fracture through the anterior nasal spine of the maxilla. There is a comminuted nasal septum fracture. The nasal septum is deviated to the right anteriorly and to the left posteriorly. There is a communited fracture of the posterolateral wall of the left maxillary sinus, with a free fragment displaced into the sinus. There is a small amount of fluid in the left maxillary sinus, presumably blood, though insufficient in amount for density measurements. There is a large hematoma overlying the left orbit, maxilla and mandible. With the regard to the orbit, there is a large preseptal hematoma and a small postseptal, extraconal hematoma in the superomedial aspect of the orbit, displacing the left globe inferolaterally. The globe is intact. The left superior rectus and superior oblique muscles are thickened, suggesting edema and/or hematoma. There is no orbital fracture or zygomatic arch fracture. The mandible and the maxillary alveolar ridge appear intact. There is blood in the left frontal sinus. There is mucosal thickening, and fluid or blood, in bilateral ethmoidal air cells. There is a focus of secretions or globular mucosal thickening in the anterior left sphenoid sinus. Ostiomeatal units are narrowed by mucosal thickening but not occluded. There are secretions in the nasopharynx. The imaged mastoid air cells are clear. Concurrent head and cervical spine CTs are reported separately. IMPRESSION: 1. Comminuted bilateral nasal bones and nasal septum fractures, as well as nondisplaced fracture of the anterior nasal spine of the maxilla. 2. Large left preseptal periorbital hematoma and a small postseptal, extraconal hematoma in the superomedial left orbit, with involvement of the superior rectus and superior oblique muscles, and inferolateral displacement of the left globe.

This finding was not included in the preliminary report; it was communicated by Dr. ___ to Dr. ___ from surgery on ___ at 10:04 am over the telephone. Radiology Report FACIAL BONE CT WITHOUT CONTRAST, ___ INDICATION: Status post assault with left orbital septal injury. Please perform thin cuts to assess for an orbital fracture. COMPARISON: Facial bone CT performed earlier today on ___. TECHNIQUE: Axial non-contrast multidetector CT images of the facial bones were obtained and displayed with 1.25-mm slice thickness. Sagittal and coronal reformatted images were generated with 1-mm slice thickness. FINDINGS: Extensive left periorbital preseptal soft tissue swelling is again noted. The previously noted small post-septal, extraconal hematoma in the superomedial aspect of the left orbit has decreased in extent and conspicuity. The superior rectus and superior oblique muscles no longer appear overtly thickened. Previously noted inferolateral displacement of the left globe has decreased in conspicuity. The left globe is intact. No orbital fracture is seen. There is no zygomatic arch fracture. A comminuted fracture of the posterolateral wall of the left maxillary sinus, with a free fracture fragment mildly depressed into the sinus, is again seen. Small amount of blood in the left maxillary sinus has decreased. Mild mucosal thickening now remains present in the left maxillary sinus. Bilateral comminuted nasal bone fractures are again seen, with rightward angulation of distal fracture fragments. A comminuted fracture of the nasal septum is also again seen. The nasal septum is deviated to the right anteriorly and to the left posteriorly, as before. A non-displaced fracture through the anterior nasal spine of the maxilla is also again seen. Again seen is a large hematoma overlying the left maxilla and mandible. There is no mandibular fracture and no fracture of the maxillary alveolar ridge. Fluid and blood is again seen in the left frontal sinus. Mucosal thickening is again seen in bilateral ethmoidal air cells. There is persistent mild mucosal thickening in the left sphenoid sinus, but the previously noted focus of secretions in its anterior aspect, has resolved. The imaged mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are well aerated. IMPRESSION: 1. Large left preseptal periorbital hematoma is unchanged. Small post-septal, extraconal hematoma in the superomedial left orbit has decreased, and the superior rectus and superior oblique muscles no longer appear overtly edematous/thickened. No orbital fracture is seen. 2. Unchanged appearance of comminuted bilateral nasal bone fractures, comminuted nasal septum fracture, and nondisplaced fracture of the anterior nasal spine of the maxilla. 3. Unchanged appearance of the comminuted fracture of the left posterolateral maxillary sinus wall.

The patient was admitted to the hospital after he was assaulted. The patient reportedly was punched, kicked and struck with a bottle in the head. There was a reported 2 minutes loss of consciousness. Upon admission to the hospital, the patient was made NPO, given intravenous fluids, and underwent imaging. Cat scan images of the head and neck were normal. The patient was reported to have a bilateral nasal bone and nasal septum fracture, as well as nondisplaced fracture of the anterior nasal spine of the maxilla. He was also reported to have a left preseptal periorbital hematoma and a postseptal, extraconal hematoma in the superomedial left orbit, with involvement of the superior rectus and superior oblique muscles, and inferolateral displacement of the left globe. No orbital fracture was identified. Because of his injuries, the ophthalmology was consulted and after ocular examination of the patient recommended orbital cat scan to assess the extension of the postseptal hematoma. The postseptal hematoma remained unchanged and there was no orbital fracture. The patient was placed on sinus precautions because of his injuries and had ice pack applied to the swellling on the left side of his face. He was started on a 1 week course of augmentin per recommendations of the Plastic surgery service. Since there was no indication for surgery, the patient was started on clears and advanced to a regular diet. His vital signs remained stable and he was afebrile. He received oral analgesia for management of his pain. He was placed on sinus precautions. He was seen by the Social worker who provided support to both him and his family. Because of his loss of consciousness, he was evaluated by the occupational therapist who made recommendations for outpatient cognitive evaulation. Patient was kept in the hospital for ophthalmology re-evaluation, but left AMA, before being re-evalated and before receiving discharge instructions.

Enteric tube courses below the diaphragm, out of the field of view. Left-sided PICC terminates in the proximal SVC. Mild bibasilar opacities are most likely due to atelectasis, small component of aspiration is not excluded. No focal consolidation seen elsewhere. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The cardiac mediastinal silhouettes are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: Endotracheal tube terminates 5.7 cm above the carina. Enteric tube courses below the diaphragm, out of the field of view. Left PICC terminates in the proximal SVC. Mild bibasilar opacities most likely due to atelectasis, small component of aspiration is not excluded. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old man with seizures, intaubted for airway protection// ETT placement ETT placement IMPRESSION: Compared to chest radiographs ___. ET tube in standard placement. Esophageal drainage tube passes into the stomach and out of view. Left central venous catheter ends at the origin of the SVC. Previous pulmonary vascular congestion has improved. There is no pulmonary edema. Moderate bibasilar peribronchial opacification has improved on the right, stable on the left. This could be due to recent aspiration. No pneumonia in the upper lungs. No appreciable pleural effusion or evidence of pneumothorax. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: AP portable chest radiograph. INDICATION: ___ year old man with ICH and seizures s/p intubation// r/o PNA, lines/tubes TECHNIQUE: AP portable chest radiograph COMPARISON: Reference made to the prior portable chest radiograph dated ___ at 13:50 as well as multiple priors dating back to ___. FINDINGS: In comparison to the prior radiograph dated ___ at 13:50, the lungs remain clear without focal consolidation. Trace right basilar opacities likely represent atelectasis. The pulmonary vasculature is within normal limits. There is no large pleural effusion. There is no pneumothorax. Endotracheal tube terminates 4.1 cm above the carina. A left central venous catheter ends in the proximal SVC. An enteric tube courses below the level of the diaphragm before disappearing from view. IMPRESSION: 1.

Otherwise, little overall change. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old man with encephalopathy, seizures. Concern for structural lesion.// Structural lesions to explain encephalopathy TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After administration of intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal orientations. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute hemorrhage, edema, masses, mass effect, midline shift or acute infarction. Encephalomalacia and chronic blood products in the left posterior parietal lobe is compatible with chronic infarct or prior parenchymal hemorrhage. There is no abnormal enhancement after contrast administration. The ventricles, cerebral sulci, and basal cisterns are normal in size for age. There are small foci of high T2 signal in the subcortical, deep, and periventricular white matter of the cerebral hemispheres, which are nonspecific but may be related to sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease in a patient of this age. Major arterial flow voids are grossly preserved. Mucosal thickening and near complete opacification of the bilateral maxillary sinuses is visualized as well as mild mucosal thickening of the left ethmoidal air cells. Otherwise the visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The orbits are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial abnormalities or acute infarcts. 2. Changes of encephalomalacia and chronic blood products in the left parietal lobe could be related to prior infarcts or previa parenchymal hemorrhage. 3. No abnormal enhancement is seen. 4. Sequelae of probable chronic small vessel ischemic disease.

REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: A 10 point review of systems was performed in detail and is negative except as noted in the HPI. PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY (per OMR): - In ___, Mrs. ___ underwent regular mammography and was found to have a left breast nodule. Same day core needle biopsy showed infiltrating ductal carcinoma that was hormonal receptor positive. She was found to have positive FNA on the left axilla. She opted for a left mastectomy, which revealed two foci of cancer 1.8 and 1.2 cm each, accompanied by extensive intermediate grade DCIS and focal lymphatic invasion. Her margins were clear, ___ lymph nodes were positive, the largest being 1.2 cm. Following mastectomy, she received radiation therapy. She underwent adjuvant chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and a taxane. - She received endocrine therapy from ___ to ___ with anastrozole daily. Her HER2 status was unclear for initial tumor. There is some description of it being 0, likely reflecting immunohistochemistry to be negative. - She did not experience any side effects from chemotherapy or hormonal therapy. She subsequently received active surveillance of right breast. - In ___, her mammogram showed an inferior lateral mass on the right breast. She received a same-day ultrasound, which detected a 1.8-cm hypoechoic mass. A biopsy was performed. There are no detectable lymph nodes in the right axillary area. Pathology revealed grade 3 infiltrating ductal carcinoma, ER/PR positive, HER-2/neu is 3+ by immunohistochemistry. - On ___, she received lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node evaluation. The final pathology showed pT1c, pN0, pMX (stage I) - ___ paclitaxel with trastuzumab weekly (total of 8 doses received) - ___ starting trastuzumab Q3wk - ___ radiation - ___ starting anastrozole - ___ completed one year of trastuzumab She had a colonoscopy in ___ which showed an ulcerated lesion in her cecum. Dr. ___ at ___ then scheduled her for a CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast. scan showed in the lower chest a right pleural effusion which was partially loculated. In the liver, low-attenuation lesions were noted throughout the liver compatible with metastases. In addition to the liver finding with multiple lesions, there was a 1.2 x 1.3 cm mass in the medial limb of the left adrenal gland. Her kidneys showed very small lesions which were likely cysts. There was nodularity of the greater omentum and transverse mesocolon in keeping with a diagnosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis. There was a 2.2 cm lesion seen in the left ovary. She also has calcified fibroids. Paraesophageal, porta hepatis and portacaval lymph nodes were noted. On bone windows, there was a 1.7 cm blastic focus in the L4 vertebral body. There are multilevel degenerative changes in the spine as well as an old left ninth rib fracture. The impression from the scan primarily was that of metastases in the liver, left adrenal gland and peritoneal cavity as well as probably in the body of L4 and possibly in her ovary. She had a liver biopsy in ___ which showed this tumor is estrogen and progesterone receptor positive and non-amplified for HER-2. This is therefore more compatible with her ___ left breast malignancy than it is with the more recent right breast cancer which was amplified for HER-2. ___ was initiated on Xeloda on ___.

The left lung is grossly clear. No left pleural effusion is seen. There is no pneumothorax. Cardiac mediastinal silhouettes are grossly stable given partially obscured by the right sided opacity. IMPRESSION: Large right pleural effusion with overlying atelectasis, underlying consolidation not excluded. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ with fall yesterday // eval acute intracranial injury TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations as well as bone algorithm reconstructions were provided and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP (Head) = 803 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT head ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of infarction, hemorrhage, edema, or large mass. Deep white matter periventricular hypodensities are nonspecific but likely represent sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration. There is no acute fracture. Air-fluid levels are noted in the sphenoid sinuses. The paranasal sinuses are otherwise clear. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial abnormality. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old woman with metastatic breast cancer with pleural effusion and fevers with concern for pneumonia. TECHNIQUE: Multi detector helical scanning of the chest was reconstructed as 5 and 1.25 mm thick axial, 2.5 mm thick coronal and parasagittal, and 8 mm MIP axial images. Contrast agent was not administered. All images were reviewed. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 6.3 s, 33.4 cm; CTDIvol = 13.5 mGy (Body) DLP = 455.4 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 455 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CHEST CT SCAN ___. FINDINGS: 11 mm right supraclavicular lymph node, poorly defined in the absence of intravenous contrast agent, is stable or slightly smaller compared ___. There is no left supraclavicular or left axillary lymph node enlargement. Previously questioned right axillary lymph node is either a miss identified muscle, or it has resolved. Patient has had left mastectomy. Evaluation of the breasts would require mammography, for example, a spiculated 16 x 18 mm nodular collection of tissue in the right breast, 5:172. Marked enlargement of the right thyroid lobe is homogeneous, unlikely to represent a mass, and unchanged since ___. Atherosclerotic calcification is not apparent in head neck vessels, but is substantial in the coronary arteries. Had aorta is normal size. Main pulmonary arteries are mildly enlarged. Pericardial effusion is small, unchanged, with no calcification or evidence of cardiac tamponade. There is no left pleural effusion. Moderate, nonhemorrhagic right pleural effusion is nearly all dependent, in the right posterior chest, but there is small volume that is probably loculated anterior to the middle lobe, 5:131. Pleural surfaces are not distinguishable from the effusion in the absence of intravenous contrast agent. Lungs: Emphysema is widespread, moderately severe. A large region of peripheral consolidation in the right middle lobe is probably atelectasis, unchanged since ___. Smaller amount of atelectasis is also present at the base of the right lung. There is no bronchial obstruction to explain either. Subpleural scarring in the left lung anteriorly reflects previous radiation. New atelectasis at the left base is mild. Bronchi are patent to subsegmental levels and there is no bronchiectasis. A sharply defined round sclerotic lesion in the midportion of a mid thoracic vertebral body has any central dense calcification. This could be an osteoma. There are no bone lesions in the chest cage suspicious for malignancy and no compression or pathologic fractures. IMPRESSION: No obvious explanation for the persistent moderate to large nonhemorrhagic right pleural effusion or large areas of atelectasis in the right lung, all stable since ___. Previously questioned right adenopathy has either resolved or was miss identified. There is no supraclavicular or axillary adenopathy today. Moderate emphysema. Moderately severe coronary atherosclerotic calcification. .

RELEVANT PATHOLOGY ======================== ___ BONE MARROW BIOPSY FLOW CYTOMETRY Immunophenotypic findings consistent with involvement by an abnormal CD34 positive myeloid blasts comprising 8% of the total analyzed events. Correlation with clinical, morphologic (see separate pathology/cytogenetics report ___ and other ancillary findings is recommended. Flow cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all abnormal populations due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample preparation. PATHOLOGY INVOLVEMENT BY PATIENT'S KNOWN MYELOPROLIFERATIVE NEOPLASM WITH SIGNIFICANT MYELOFIBROSIS AND INCREASED BLASTS, SEE NOTE. Note: The marrow biopsy is hypercellular with myeloid dominant Hematopoieis, dysplastic megakrayocytes, and increased blasts (___) which together with an absolute monocytosis, raise the possibility of involvement by chronic myelomonocytic leukemia further subclassified as CMML-2. However, myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) can also be associated with monocytosis or can develop it during the course of the disease; these cases may mimic CMML. The patient's previously reported JAK2 mutation along with the significant marrow fibrosis (MF-3) and the lack of significant dysgranulopoiesis in the peripheral blood tend to support the diagnosis of a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) with monocytosis rather than CMML. Nevertheless, both increased fibrosis and increasing blasts are signs of disease progression. Correlation with clinical, cytogenetic studies and laboratory findings is recommended.

====================== SUMMARY ====================== ___ with PMHx MPN previously on hydroxyurea stopped ___ pancytopenia presented to ___ w/confusion, diarrhea, found to have 11% blasts and labs c/w TLS, with BMB showing high risk CMML. She was initially restarted on hydroxyurea and then started on 20mg/m2 IV decitabine (___) for 5 days. She was temporarily on CRRT for urate nephropathy causing renal failure. She was pancytopenic initially due to restarting hydroxyurea and later due to the effects of decitabine. She was followed by psychiatry and palliative care and remained full code with the goal to treat her malignancy. ====================== ACUTE ISSUES ====================== #MPN with monocytosis #TLS #DIC Patient follows with oncologist ___. She had recently been taken off of hydroxyurea ___ pancytopenia. On arrival, labs were consistent with TLS and DIC. Patient had not received any recent treatment so this was felt to be due to likely transformation of CML to AML. ___ was consulted. They recommended acutely treating TLS with allopurinol and the patient ended up requiring two doses of rasburicase. She was placed back on hydroxyurea. Once she was stabilized, bone marrow biopsy was performed which showed hypercellular marrow c/w MDS/MPN disorder w/ ___ blasts so did not quite meet threshold for acute leukemia diagnosis though was felt to be progressing towards AML. Due to worsening pancytopenia, hydroxyurea was discontinued. Following ___ conversations, she was started on chemotherapy with decitabine at 20mg/m2 for 5 days. She tolerated the chemotherapy without significant issue. Labs are notable for persistent pancytopenia requiring transfusion support about every other day. For prophylaxis, she is on acyclovir, and posaconazole. Levofloxacin was discontinued as ANC >500 upon d/c. She was also recommended to start ruxolitinib given her JAK2+ status under her outpatient oncologist's guidance. ___ #Hypervolemia Patient was noted to have ___ on admission felt to be secondary to uric acid nephropathy. She was rapidly placed on CRRT due to electrolyte abnormalities and rapidly changing renal function. This was continued until ___ when TLS had resolved and she was taken off. Following this, her creatinine remained stable and she did not have any further need for dialysis. She initially received aggressive fluid resuscitation for her ___ causing her to be volume overloaded. She then received Lasix with/without diuril as needed for diuresis. #HFpEF #Moderate tricuspid regurgitation #Mild aortic stenosis: After receiving aggressive fluid resuscitation for TLS and ___, clinically appeared volume overloaded with edematous legs B/L and elevated JVP. TTE with HF with preserved EF, mild AS, and moderate TR. Initially cardiac meds (lisinopril/metoprolol) were held, but metoprolol succinate was re-started at home dose of 12.5mg daily and lisinopril was halved to 20mg daily given softer BPs and recovering ___. Likely can go back on full dose lisinopril as outpatient if BPs and kidneys tolerate. For diuresis she was given IV Lasix +/- diuril and transitioned to Lasix 100mg PO daily. #___ #Depression Patient initially have very depressed mood and was confused regarding ongoing treatment. As she improved clinically, she became much more aware of her medical status and the interventions that were being done. Following ___ conversations, she decided she wanted to move forward with treatment. Psychiatry and Palliative care both were consulted. She was continued on fluoxetine, alprazolam. Also received QHS ramelteon. #Left breast mass Incidentally noted on imaging. Patient has a history of right-sided breast cancer s/p lumpectomy without radiation and 2 months of aromatase inhibitor. Has h/o known left-sided atypical ductal hyperplasia s/p incisional biopsy ___ years prior. Outpatient oncology Dr. ___ was made aware of this incidental finding. #Vision changes, light sensitivity Patient intermittently c/o blurry vision and light sensitivity. Notes it as a chronic issue since having a fall and injuring her neck ___ years prior. CT head without issue. ====================== CHRONIC/RESOLVED ISSUES ====================== #T2DM Patient was on insulin at home, which was changed while inpatient. She was discharged on home regimen. #COPD Patient initially required oxygen supplementation but was weaned off. She received albuterol PRN. #HTN Patient was not on any anti-hypertensive medications while in the hospital. Lisinopril and metoprolol were held. BP was well-controlled off antihypertensives. #Chronic back pain Was on tramadol at home. Given small doses of oxycodone here and sent home with 30 5mg tablets. #Urinary frequency/dysuria: Resolved without treatment. UCx with coag negative staph. Did not treat as symptoms resolved. # Code Status: Full Code # Emergency Contact: Husband ___ ======================

Pre-mRs:3 REASON FOR CONSULTATION: Code stroke/or stroke HPI: Ms. ___ is a ___ female with medical history notable for asthma complicated by recurrent exacerbations, obesity, chronic pain/fibromyalgia syndrome, history of CVA, hypertension, hypothyroidism who presents with dizziness. Briefly, patient reports that 3 days ago she suddenly developed sudden onset vertigo, room spinning to the right while walking to her kitchen. This is been persistent. Is worse with certain movements, and is resolves when laying still. Patient has fallen multiple times over the last 2 days, soft falls with abrasions to her left elbow, no head strike. Denies associated neurological symptoms such as new focal weakness (has chronic left weakness from previous stroke), no numbness or difficulty with language, no dysarthria. Denied any diplopia, however on formal testing found to have diplopia when looking to the right. headaches. No headache, but does report nausea. Patient also reports mild leg swelling over the past 1 week, no chest pain or shortness of breath. Regarding her past stroke: ___, CVA, it was apparently an atypical presentation secondary to a right leg DVT and pulmonary embolus in the setting of right foot surgery. This is the same foot that in ___ had to be reconstructed and revascularized from a traumatic motorcycle accident. The CVA apparently occurred through a small patent foramen ovale that was not suspected. She was worked up at ___. Again, it did not present as an acute stroke, it was more of a slow developing weakness of the upper and lower extremities, which persists and diminished left-sided hearing. The patent foramen ovale was, therefore, determined relatively late and they did not recommend closure at that time. She remains aware of upper and lower extremity weakness on the left and reduced hearing." Of note patient has been seen in the ED two times last week for back and neck pain.

Fluoroscopy time: 23.2 seconds COMPARISON: Left tibia and fibula radiographs ___ FINDINGS: The available images show placement of external fixator device with proximal transfixing through screws through the tibia and a distal screw than appears to pass through the calcaneus. There is again visualized a comminuted fracture of the distal tibia and fibula with talar tilt and intra-articular extension. The subsequent images show distraction of the tibiotalar joint with improved alignment. There is diffuse soft tissue swelling. Please see the operative report for further details. IMPRESSION: Intraoperative images from external fixation of a distal tibia and fibula fracture. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old man s/p fall now s/p L tib ex-fix application. Eval in traction for ORIF planning. // post op eval; ex-fix L tibia COMPARISON: Left ankle radiographs dated ___. Intraoperative spot fluoroscopic views from ___ FINDINGS: External fixation devices are present, secured in the posterior calcaneus and tibial midshaft. There are markedly comminuted fractures of the distal tibia and fibula. The tibial fracture extends to the articular surface of the tibial plafond. There are components of the fracture which exit at the distal tibial metadiaphysis and an additional vertical fracture line subtending the medial malleolus. There is marked comminution and morselization of bone in the region of the tibial metaphysis. Along the tibial plafond, there is a punch-die type defect that measures approximately 12.3 mm (anteroposterior), with depression of approximally 13.1 mm(400 b: 38 -40). In addition, there is a large posterior tibial fragment, which is depressed relative to its usual position, resulting in marked widening of the tibiotalar joint posteriorly. This involves approximately 10.1 mm of the posterior tibial articular surface (anteroposterior), with depression of approximately 23.8 mm. More anteriorly, the tibial articular surface is located in its usual position (400 b: 46). Multiple punctate ossific fragments lie within the mortise joint itself (400 b: 43-44). The distal fibular diaphyseal fracture is in overall anatomic alignment, with very slight (cortical width) anterior displacement of the distal fragment and very slight anterior and lateral apex angulation. No other fractures are identified. The subtalar, talonavicular, calcaneocuboid, and remaining tibiotalar joints remain congruent on this nonstress exam. The talar dome is intact, without evidence of talar dome OCD. Incidental note is made of an os trigonum ossicle. Tiny ossific densities adjacent to the medial talus (2:121), likely represent a small bipartite accessory navicular ossicle. Rounded lucency with surrounding sclerosis in the distal medial navicular abutting the navicular cuneiform joint space is not fully characterized, but likely represents a degenerative cyst with reactive sclerosis. Scattered foci of subcutaneous emphysema are present. Assessment of the surrounding soft tissues is limited, but there is prominent soft tissue swelling. As noted on the wet reading, the tibialis posterior and flexor digitorum longus tendons lie in close proximity to a posteromedial fracture line, with the PTT interposed within both fracture fragments, concerning for possible entrapment (3:99). Vascular calcification noted. IMPRESSION: 1. Comminuted fracture of the distal tibia with components involving the distal meta diaphysis, medial malleolus, and tibial plafond. 2. The tibial plafond component is compatible with a severely comminuted pilon type fracture. There is considerable distraction and depression of the fracture fragments, with respect to the usual tibial plafond articular surface, detailed above. Punctate fracture fragments noted within the mortise joint. 3. Comminuted fracture of the distal fibular diaphysis, in overall anatomic alignment, with only minimal offset and angulation. 4. No other fractures detected about the ankle/hindfoot. 5. Tibialis posterior tendon interposed between 2 tibial fracture fragments along the posterior tibia, with the FDL tendon immediately adjacent to it (3:99). This finding raises concern for tendon entrapment. 6. External fixation device in place.

L Leg ___ Doppler IMPRESSION: No evidence of DVT ___ the left lower extremity. CT Abdomen/Pelvis ___ IMPRESSION: 1. Interval development of a large right rectus abdominis hematoma measuring approximately 9.7 x 7.3 x 13.3 cm with intrapelvic extension. Tiny hyperdense focus within hematoma may represent punctate pseudoaneurysm. Close monitoring of hematocrit advised. 2. Interval improvement of bibasilar clung onsolidations. 3. Interval increased fragmentation and osteolysis of the left femoral head consistent and placement of drain consistent with interval debridement of known septic hip. Interval resolution of rim-enhancing adjacent collection evident on prior study. 4. Additional stable (nonemergent) findings as ___ the body of this report. TTE ___ The left atrium is elongated. Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. LV systolic function appears depressed probably moderately to severely but views are technically suboptimal. Estimated left ventricular ejection fraction is uncertain, possibly 25%. The right ventricular cavity is mildly dilated with depressed free wall contractility. The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no pericardial effusion. TEE ___ No spontaneous echo contrast or thrombus is seen ___ the body of the left atrium/left atrial appendage or the body of the right atrium/right atrial appendage. Right atrial appendage ejection velocity is good (>20 cm/s). No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. There are simple atheroma ___ the descending thoracic aorta. The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?3). The left and noncoronary cusp appear partially fused as a result of degenerative change. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No mass or vegetation is seen on the mitral valve. Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Due to the eccentric nature of the regurgitant jet, its severity may be significantly underestimated (Coanda effect). The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No masses or vegetations are seen on the tricuspid valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. Moderate [2+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. No masses or vegetations are seen on the pulmonic valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. IMPRESSION: No intra-atrial SEC or clot. At least moderate mitral regurgitation and moderate tricuspid regurgitation with no vegetations or abcesses seen. CT ABD/PELVIS FINDINGS: Note is again made of calcified pleural plaques bilaterally. Again also seen is a chronic appearing small subdiaphragmatic fluid collection. Extensive coronary calcifications are present within a mildly enlarged heart.

FINDINGS: Images from the operating suite are presented. Further information can be gathered from the operative report. Radiology Report PORTABLE AP SEMI-ERECT CHEST FILM, ___ AT 22:03 CLINICAL INDICATION: ___ with septic hip. Evaluate for pulmonary edema. ___ at 6:44. A portable semi-erect chest film, ___ at 22:03 is submitted. IMPRESSION: 1. Overall stable cardiac and mediastinal contours in this patient status post median sternotomy for CABG. Interval improvement in pulmonary edema since the previous study, although there is still residual mild edema on the current examination. There is a large hiatal hernia. Calcified diaphragmatic pleural plaques are again seen consistent with prior asbestos exposure. Interval removal of the right PICC line. Probable small left effusion. No evidence of pneumothorax. Radiology Report INDICATION: History of diverticulitis and perforation, status post ostomy with abdominal hernia with increasing right lower quadrant abdominal pain, area feels firm on examination. Please evaluate for incarcerated hernia or abdominal wall hematoma. COMPARISON: Comparison is made to CT abdomen and pelvis performed ___. TECHNIQUE: Contrast-enhanced axial images obtained from the lung bases to the pelvic outlet. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided. FINDINGS: There is redemonstration of an incompletely visualized mixed-type hiatal hernia. The stomach is otherwise unremarkable. The patient is status post a partial colectomy with colostomy evident in the right lower quadrant. There is diastasis of the rectus abdominis muscles progressing to an anterior midline small bowel containing hernia more inferiorly. There has been interval development of a large 9.7 x 7.3 x 13.3 cm (TRV x AP x CC) right rectus sheath hematoma with break through into the intraperitoneal space. A tiny hyperdense focus is identified in the inferomedial aspect of the hematoma (2:68) which may represent a punctate pseudoaneurysm. Attention on follow-up. The right inferior epigastric artery is remote from hyperdense focus. The new right rectus sheath hematoma is causing some narrowing of neck of lower midline hernia though there is no evidence of associated small bowel obsruction or strangulation. There is a mild amount of surrounding inflammatory change in both overlying superficial soft tissues and adjacent intrabdominal fat. Majority of visualized muscle bulk is severly atrophic likely related to longterm immobility associated with known left septic hip. Asymmetric muscle bulk in the right piriformis and proximal aspect of the right gluteus maximus (2:70, 2:75)is unchanged compared to prior study and likely due to assymetric atrophy than another area of intramuscular hematoma. There is increased fragmentation and osteolysis of the left femoral head consistent with continued debridement of known septic joint. A catheter now terminates in the joint space and the previously noted adjacent rim enhancing collection has resolved. There are significant surrounding inflammatory changes and soft tissue edema without focal fluid collection. Specifically, a fluid collection noted on the ___ study is no longer evident. Right total hip hardware appears intact. Stable degenerative changes noted in the lumbar spine including bialteral L5 pars defects and associated grade 1 anterolisthesis of L5 on S1 . Calcified pleural plaques are identified bilaterally. There is chronic-appearing small subdiaphragmatic fluid collection on the left measuring 1.3 cm, unchanged from prior. In addition, there are multiple areas of partially calcified complex fluid density collections the abdomen (2:66, 2:55) which may relate to resolving collections from prior operative intervention. The liver is homogeneous in attenuation without discrete masses or lesions. There is no intra- or extra-hepatic biliary ductal dilatation. The gallbladder is unremarkable. The pancreas is atrophic. The spleen is normal. The bilateral adrenal glands are unremarkable. Multiple cysts are identified in the bilateral kidneys, unchanged compared to prior study. There is no hydronephrosis or hydroureter evident. Coronary artery calcifications are identified. Heart size is mildly enlarged. Extensive atherosclerotic changes are noted throughout the abdominal aorta without aneurysm or dissection. Calcified plaques were noted at the ostia of the celiac and superior mesenteric artery. Within the proximal superior mesenteric artery, there is a large noncalcified plaque causing significant narrowing of the vessel and post-stenotic dilatation (2:26, 603B:44). The distal superior mesenteric artery is well perfused. IMPRESSION: 1. Interval development of a large right rectus abdominis hematoma measuring approximately 9.7 x 7.3 x 13.3 cm with intrapelvic extension. Tiny hyperdense focus within hematoma may represent punctate pseudoaneurysm. Close monitoring of hematocrit advised. 2. Interval improvement of bibasilar clung onsolidations. 3. Interval increased fragmentation and osteolysis of the left femoral head consistent and placement of drain consistent with interval debridement of known septic hip. Interval resolution of rim-enhancing adjacent collection evident on prior study. 4. Additional stable (nonemergent) findings as in the body of this report.. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ male patient with left PICC line placement. COMPARISON: Prior chest radiograph from ___. TECHNIQUE: Portable AP chest radiograph. FINDINGS: The left PICC line tip is seen at the level of the mid to lower SVC. There are stable mediastinal and cardiac contours. There is residual pulmonary edema. Again seen are calcified diaphragmatic pleural plaques consistent with prior asbestos exposure. There is no pneumothorax. Sternotomy wires are intact. IMPRESSION: Left PICC line tip at level of mid to lower SVC. These findings were discussed with ___, venous access nurse, by Dr. ___ telephone on ___ at 11:00 AM, time of discovery. Radiology Report HISTORY: Rectus sheath hematoma with dropping hematocrit. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial CT images were obtained through the abdomen and pelvis without the administration of contrast. Coronal sagittal reformats were also examined. DLP: 846.65 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT abdomen pelvis ___. FINDINGS: Note is again made of calcified pleural plaques bilaterally. Again also seen is a chronic appearing small subdiaphragmatic fluid collection. Extensive coronary calcifications are present within a mildly enlarged heart. Within the limits of this unenhanced study, the liver, spleen, and pancreas appear unremarkable. The adrenal glands are unremarkable. Multiple kidney cysts bilaterally are again noted. There is no pelvicaliceal dilatation or perinephric abnormality present. Again seen is a mixed type hiatal hernia. The stomach and small bowel are unremarkable. The patient is status post partial colectomy with colostomy seen in the right lower quadrant, unremarkable. Again seen is a anterior midline small bowel hernia. Again also seen is a rectus sheath hematoma appearing largely stable compared to the prior study. It currently measures 8.7 x 7.7 cm. The mild surrounding inflammatory change is less prominent on the current study. There is no new area of fluid collection concerning for hematoma. Again seen is stable appearance of the left femoral head with removal of the catheter which resided in the joint space. There is no focal fluid collection in this area. Again noted is a right total hip replacement. Stable degenerative changes of the spine are again seen. Asymmetrical muscle bulk in the left hip is again noted. IMPRESSION: 1. No new source of bleeding identified. 2. Stable appearance of rectus sheath hematoma. Radiology Report AP CHEST, 9:07 A.M., ___ HISTORY: ___ man with episode of hypoxia and rising white count. Suspect pneumonia. IMPRESSION: AP chest compared to ___: I would be tempted to call the increased peribronchovascular opacification in the right mid lung recent aspiration, however on ___, when the patient was resolving pulmonary edema, the right lung had the same appearance. Therefore, I prefer vascular dilatation and early edema. Nevertheless, I would continue close radiographic surveillance if pneumonia is suspected. Linear calcifications in the right lung and nodular opacities in the left lung could all be due to prior asbestos exposure. Moderate cardiomegaly is stable, less pronounced today than it was on ___. There is probably a good-sized hiatus hernia. Because of the complexity of multiple intrathoracic findings, if the clinical situation is equally unclear, I would strongly recommend CT scanning for assessment. Left PIC line ends in the upper SVC. Pleural effusion is small if any. No pneumothorax. Radiology Report REASON FOR EXAMINATION: Picc line placement. Portable AP radiograph of the chest was reviewed in comparison to ___. The right PICC line tip is at the level of cavoatrial junction. Heart size and mediastinum are unchanged including cardiomegaly. There is slight interval improvement of pulmonary edema, but still present substantial vascular engorgement and nodular opacities in the lower lungs, partially assessed on the current study as well as right lower lobe consolidation worrisome for infectious process. Radiology Report FLUOROSCOPIC-GUIDED LEFT HIP ASPIRATION DATED ___. CLINICAL INDICATION: Left hip erythema and extreme pain. ?septic arthritis. COMPARISON: CT dated ___. PROCEDURE: Written informed consent was obtained after explaining the procedure to be performed, risks, and alternatives. A preprocedure timeout confirmed the procedure to be performed and the identity of the patient using three patient identifiers. The skin entry site at the left anterolateral hip was chosen and the skin was prepped in standard sterile fashion. Approximately 2 mL of 1% lidocaine was infiltrated into the subcutaneous soft tissues overlying region of interest. Under intermittent fluoroscopic guidance, an 18 gauge spinal needle was advanced into the left hip joint space. Approximately 3 mL of red nonpurulent left hip joint space fluid was aspirated. The needle was removed, pressure applied to needle entry site, and hemostasis achieved. Patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate complications. FINDINGS: There is advanced joint space loss in the left hip joint with destruction of the left femoral head, which is displaced superiorly. There is remodeling of the left acetabulum. IMPRESSION: 1. Uneventful left hip joint aspiration of approximately 3 mL of sanguinous nonpurulent left hip joint fluid. Specimens were obtained and carried directly to the pathology laboratory for microbiologic and fluid analysis. 2. Imaging demonstrates advanced joint space loss in the left hip joint, with destruction of the femoral head and remodeling of the left acetabulum. Dr. ___, the attending radiologist, was present and supervising throughout the procedure. Radiology Report HISTORY: Persistent cellulitis in the left leg. Evaluate for DVT. TECHNIQUE: Grayscale, color and spectral Doppler ultrasound images of the left lower extremity veins. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is normal compressibility, flow and augmentation of the right common femoral, proximal femoral, mid femoral, distal femoral, and popliteal veins. Normal color flow and compressibility is demonstrated in the right posterior tibial and peroneal veins. There is normal respiratory variation of the common femoral veins bilaterally. IMPRESSION: No evidence of DVT in the left lower extremity.

___ with a past medical history of CAD s/p CABG, atrial fibrillation/flutter on warfarin, diverticulitis s/p colostomy, and recurrent left hip osteomyelitis/septic arthritis who presented with weakness and hypotension, found to have septic arthritis and MRSA bacteremia. #Septic arthritis The patient presented with weakness and pain ___ his left hip. He had a history of recurrent septic arthritis ___ his left hip and was s/p multiple courses of IV vancomycin and aspiration procedures ___ the previous ___ months at ___. The last course of antibiotics was completed 2 weeks before admission. Interestingly, the patient has a history of R hip replacement ___ years prior, but this joint has never been involved. CT abdomen/pelvis on arrival demonstrated signs of osteomyelitis of the L hip. The patient was started on IV vancomycin ___ house. Initially, interventional radiology performed aspiration of the joint that was not convincing for septic arthritis. Infectious Disease was consulted who encouraged the Orthopedics service to perform a washout of the joint. The patient underwent two separate washout procedures ___ and ___, during which large abscesses were found, and necrotic bone, including the entire femoral head, was removed. Cultures from the washouts grew MRSA. The patient was afebrile with sterile cultures after these washouts. The incisions and covering dressings remained C/D/I. He continues to have mild left hip edema w/o erythema or warmth. He will complete a six week course vancomycin, last dose ___. He will be followed at ___ for this and lab work should be faxed to them on a weekly basis to ___. He will also follow up ___ ___ clinic. #MRSA bacteremia The patient was treated with IV vancomycin as above. The patient had a PICC on arrival to ___ which was removed. One blood culture grew out VRE, but the ID service felt this to be a contaminant, especially since the patient was improving clinically while on vancomycin only. The patient had a TEE performed that ruled out endocarditis as a source of his bacteremia. No vegetations were seen on the TEE. #Atrial flutter/fibrillation with RVR After his second washout procedure, the patient developed atrial flutter/fibrillation with RVR. While at home, he takes metoprolol for rate control and warfarin for anticoagulation. Warfarin was held on admission due to the impending surgical procedures. The patient's rates were inadequately controlled on nodal agents. He underwent a TEE that showed no ___. He was then given heparin and a successful cardioversion was performed. He was discharged to the medical floor ___ normal sinus rhythm on digoxin and metoprolol with plan to consider outpt coumadin. INRs should be monitored on a daily basis to start given need for close titration. He will follow up with Atrius cardiology. #NSTEMI The patient presented with a troponin of .17, which eventually down-trended. At___ Cardiology was consulted who uptitrated his beta blocker therapy and recommended atorvastatin 80mg. The patient again had a troponin bump during his initial run of atrial flutter with RVR after the second washout procedure. This episode was also associated with ST depressions on ECG. The patient never complained of any chest discomfort or shortness of breath during these episodes. ST depressions resolved with rate control. Subsequent ECHO did show significant decrease ___ EF from prior study. The patient should have a repeat echo should he develop signs/symptoms of heart failure. #RLQ Hematoma/Blood loss anemia The patient complained of RLQ pain also after his second washout procedure. General Surgery was consulted who recommended a CT Abdomen which showed a rectus sheath hematoma. This was likely from a poorly positioned heparin SQ injection. After consultation with surgery and cardiology, the decision was made to move forward with IV heparin and the TEE/cardioversion. The patient was discharged to the medical floor hemodynamically stable with a stable hct while on a heparin gtt. His hematocrit was trended and he received 2 units of pRBCs on the general medicine floor. #Delirium The patient developed marked delirium while ___ the ICU. He often imagined his son ___ the room while he was not there. On the general medicine floor the patient continued to be delirius. ___ talking with the family it appeared the patient has been delirous before while on cholchine. Cholchine was discontinued. The patient's delirium was also significantly improved with blood transfusions. #Pain Control The patient's pain was difficult to control. He would often refuse PO pain medication. A dilaudid PCA was tried, but the patient reported he would forget to use the button. The patient was transferred to the medical floor on an aggressive PO regimen. He was continued on chronic prednisone along with ranitidine and TMP-SMX prophylaxis. # Systolic heart failure: LVEF uncertain, potentially 25% on ECHO ___ setting of NSTEMI and SVT. BNP of 7700 this admission. Breathing comfortable. He was treated with and discharged on BB, ACEi, digoxin, and furosemide 20mg PO daily # Rheumatoid Arthritis: On daily prednisone 30mg daily as outpt, decreased to 20mg daily ___ house with GI and bactrim ppx. ___ consider further outpt taper after discussion with his rheumatologist given his wound healing difficulties. # Wound dehiscence – Inspection of prior abdominal surgical incision was suspicious for possible dehiscence. The patient was seen by the general surgery service for this issue who recommended close monitoring. Wound care followed ___ and he should have continued wound care to the area.

Prior to this, he was able to walk easily, including climbing stairs, but now he noted that walking was much more difficult, and he walked with a limp. He stated this was due to both pain and weakness. He also complained of a deep chest pain "like my chest was caved in" that was associated with coughing up a mixture of bright red blood, clots, and sputum. This happened several times a day, and was never of large volume. He denied fevers, but has had chills over the past several weeks, and night sweats several times a week, requiring him to change clothes. He also has had new onset of migraines in the last two months -- severe bilateral headaches. No stool incontinence, no saddle anesthesia. No weakness in his upper extremities. No changes in vision or hearing. Numbness in his RLE, but nowhere else. No mouth abscesses. No swollen lymph nodes. No abdominal pain. At ___, vitals notable for temp 98.3, BP 179/85. ROS: Pertinent positives and negatives as noted in the HPI. All other systems were reviewed and are negative. He had an initial chest x-ray which showed: Left lower lobe pneumonia. Focal hemorrhage is in the differential. Follow-up chest x-rays in 6 weeks is recommended to ensure resolution. Because of his leg weakness, a head CT was obtained, which showed: No acute intracranial process by CT. Mild age-related atrophy with chronic small vessel ischemic change of the periventricular white matter. Finally, a CTA abd/pelvis was obtained which showed: No CT evidence for thoracoabdominal aortic dissection. Large medial left lower lobe lung mass measuring up to 8.9 cm in sagittal dimension of concern for carcinoma abuts the medial pleura. Small subcarinal lymph node. Because of his leg weakness/pain, and new diagnosis of presumed metastatic lung cancer, he was transferred to ___. In the ___ ED, a code cord was called and an MRI of his spine was obtained, which showed: Cord or cauda equina compression: yes, posterior disc bulge and ligamentum flavum hypertrophy at C3-4 causes cord compression with abnormal cord signal at this level (7; 18). Posterior disc bulge, facet arthropathy, ligamentum flavum hypertrophy cause cauda equina compression at L5-S1. There is severe spinal canal stenosis at C5-6, C6-7, T2-3, and L4-5 with cord/cauda equina deformation, however a posterior rim of CSF remains visible. Neurosurgery evaluated, and their preliminary recommendations are that this is degenerative changes, not requiring an acute intervention.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Presenting with right upper quadrant pain. Has a history of a prior cholecystectomy. Evaluate for retained stone. COMPARISONS: None. TECHNIQUE: Grayscale and Doppler ultrasound images were acquired through the right upper quadrant. FINDINGS: The liver is normal in shape and contour. There is normal echogenicity. No focal hepatic lesions are identified. The main portal vein is patent with normal hepatopetal flow. The patient is status post cholecystectomy. There appears to be mild intrahepatic biliary duct dilation. The common bile duct is very dilated measuring up to 16 mm. No stone is visualized within the ducts. The duct cannot be completely followed to the pancreatic head, although the majority of its course is visualized. The pancreas appears normal. The pancreatic duct is within normal limits measuring 2 mm. The pancreatic tail is somewhat obscured by overlying bowel gas. There is no evidence of ascites in this limited right upper quadrant ultrasound. Limited views of the right kidney demonstrate an extrarenal pelvis. IMPRESSION: Common bile duct dilation up to 16 mm with associated mild intrahepatic biliary duct dilation. No stone is identified within the ducts, although it is not traced completely to the pancreatic head. There is no evidence of pancreatic duct dilation. Given these findings, further evaluation with an MRCP is recommended to exclude a distal stone or obstructing mass. Radiology Report MRCP INDICATION: ___ woman status post cholecystectomy with abdominal pain, LFTs in the ___ and ___, evaluate for CBD stone. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar and multisequence MR imaging was obtained before and after the administration of IV contrast. 7 cc of Gadavist IV contrast was administered. 2.5 cc of Gadavist mixed with 75 cc of water was administered orally. FINDINGS: Lung bases demonstrate minimal bibasilar subsegmental atelectasis. The visualized heart is prominent without pericardial effusion. The liver appears enlarged with very heterogeneous arterial phase enhancement which normalizes on subsequent post-contrast images. There is a mild amount of intrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation and mild periportal edema noted. Remnant cystic duct is dilated with a few large filling defects noted measuring up to 6 mm. These demonstrate mild susceptibility artifact on the corresponding in-phase images. Significant dilation of the common hepatic/common bile duct is again seen measuring up to 13 mm at the level of the extrapancreatic common bile duct. Distally, the common bile duct measures up to 8 mm, with intraluminal stones measuring up to 6 mm. No definitive cholecystectomy clips are appreciated. Additionally, the common hepatic, common bile and cystic duct walls have slight hyperenhancement consistent with cholangitis. The pancreas, however, is homogeneous with top normal pancreatic ductal caliber. No evidence of gallstone pancreatitis is seen. No significant peripancreatic fluid collection or significant lymphadenopathy is appreciated. Incidental note of bilateral extrarenal pelves, without evidence of hydronephrosis. Renal cyst is noted within the right upper kidney. The visualized skeletal structures demonstrate no significant abnormality. IMPRESSION: 1. Choledocholithiasis and stones within the remnant cystic duct; ductal wall hyperenhancement indicates cholangitis. Largest stone within the common bile duct measures up to 6 mm. Mild intrahepatic biliary ductal dilation. 2. Mild periportal edema, hepatic enlargement and heterogeneous arterial enhancement suggest hepatitis; a chronic hepatic abnormality is possible. 2. Normal homogeneous-appearing pancreas without evidence of gallstone pancreatitis.

___ with h/o seizure d/o and EtOH abuse transferred from OSH with status epileptic in the form of multiple GTCs. Was intubated and sedated prior to admission to MICU. Extubated on ___. # Status Epilepticus (RESOLVED): Etiology was thought to be ___ AED noncompliance vs EtOH withdrawal. Given concern over EtOH withdrawal he was admitted to the MICU. Prior to transfer to the MICU he was loaded with fosphenytoin at OSH, but this was subseqently discontinued. In the ___ at ___, valproate level was checked, which was subtherapeutic. Per admission records, pt was on valproate 500mg BID recently but was noncompliant with meds. Of note he was previously on up to 4g of valproate daily in the past. In the MICU he was restarted on his valproate at 500mg TID. He was also started on midazolam drip for first day in ICU. In the ICU he had two episodes of GTC seizures both of which were aborted with midazolam boluses. Seizures occured before EEG monitoring was set up. On HD1 he was extubated and did not have any more seizure activity in the ICU. His midazolam was stopped prior to extubation and his home diazepam was restarted. Patient was on EEG monitoring but that was discontinued on ___ given that there is no EEG findings suggestive of seizures. Patient has no clinical seizures after the discontinuation of his EEG. ___ seizures are thought to be a combination or medication non-compliance and withdrawal from ETOH and intermittent use of valium. Patient is counseled on limiting ETOH use and the importance of taking medications as directed. Patient will be followed up at Dr. ___ after discharge with the plan to transition his care to a provider that is closer to his home. # Alcohol Abuse/Withdrawal: Pt presented with etoh level in ___, so less likely that he was actually withdrawing, although he does have a reported hx of DTs, so could potentially be withdrawing from etoh even with an serum etoh level. After extubation pt was asked about his etoh use and he reports that he only drinks once a week. Regardless, he was started on CIWA scale after extubation. He was given 3 doses of PO valium for a total of 30mg. On HD2 pt was not scoring on CIWA scale, so it was discontinued. His home diazepam dose was restarted. Pt was also given IV thiamine, MVI and folate while in the MICU. Inactive issues: # CAD s/p ___ MIs: ___ and 8 stents. Pt was continued on home dose of plavix. He is not on ASA because of reported allergy. He was also continued on home dose rosuvastatin and zetia. # Parkinsonism: continued on home ropinerole dose. # GERD: continued on home dose of nexium.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (AP AND LAT) INDICATION: ___ with AMS delirum COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: AP upright and lateral views of the chest provided. Midline sternotomy wires again noted. Spinal hardware again noted. Previously seen right adjacent venous catheter, skin staples, endotracheal tube and orogastric tubes have been removed. Lung volumes are markedly low. There is consolidation in the left lower lung which was seen on prior exam in may represent effusion, atelectasis versus pneumonia. There is right basal atelectasis also noted. Mild edema and congestion is likely present. No large pneumothorax. Heart size grossly stable. IMPRESSION: Mild congestion and mild edema with left basal opacity concerning for atelectasis versus pneumonia and possible effusion. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ woman with altered mental status and delirium; evaluate for intracranial hemorrhage. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. Coronal and sagittal as well as thin bone-algorithm reconstructed images were obtained. DOSE: DLP: 1226 mGy-cm CTDI: 112 mGy COMPARISON: Head CT dated ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute infarction, hemorrhage, edema, or mass effect. Periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities are nonspecific but may represent sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemic disease and are minimally progressed to unchanged compared to the prior exam. Bilateral, symmetric prominence of the ventricles and sulci is also nonspecific, but likely age-related, and is overall stable. No shift of normally midline structures. The perimesencephalic cisterns are patent. Intracranial vascular calcifications are again seen. Bilateral basal ganglia calcifications are unchanged. No fracture. The soft tissues of the calvarium are unremarkable. There is partial opacification of the left ethmoidal air cells. There is mild mucosal thickening of the left maxillary and sphenoid sinuses. The remaining incompletely visualized paranasal sinuses as well as mastoid air cells are clear. Debris in the right external ear canal is probably cerumen. The lens have been replaced; otherwise, the orbits are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial abnormality, including no intracranial hemorrhage. 2. Overall no change from the prior head CT in ___. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: COMPLETE GU U.S. (BLADDER AND RENAL) INDICATION: ___ year old woman with hematuria, left flank pain, and elevated creatinine. TECHNIQUE: Grey scale and color Doppler ultrasound images of the kidneys were obtained. COMPARISON: Abdominal ultrasound from ___. FINDINGS: The right kidney measures 10.0 cm. The left kidney measures 12.1 cm. There is no hydronephrosis, stones, or suspicious masses bilaterally. A 6 x 8 x 7 mm simple exophytic cyst is seen in the midpole of the left kidney. Normal cortical echogenicity and corticomedullary differentiation are seen bilaterally. The bladder is decompressed with a Foley catheter. Limited views of the spleen demonstrate a 1.4 x 1.4 x 1.3 cm simple cyst. IMPRESSION: Essentially normal renal ultrasound with a 8 mm simple cysts in left kidney. No evidence of hydronephrosis or stones bilaterally. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PA AND LAT) INDICATION: ___ year old woman with ?PNA // f/u CXR for pneumonia vs atelectasis. Please evaluate for edema TECHNIQUE: Portable AP radiograph of the chest. COMPARISON: Plain chest radiograph dated ___. Correlation made to thoracic spine CT dated ___. FINDINGS: Lung volumes are low. Chronic small bilateral pleural effusions have increased. Despite vascular crowding, mild pulmonary edema likely persists. The left lower lobe airspace opacity has increased, and is worrisome for pneumonia or atelectasis. The heart and mediastinum are magnified by the projection. Sternotomy wires and spinal fixation hardware are again noted. IMPRESSION: Increased left lower lobe opacity may be due to atelectasis or pneumonia. Increased small bilateral pleural effusions. Stable mild pulmonary edema. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old woman with AMS and questionable PNA seen on CXR // Please evaluate for pneumonia vs pulmonary edema TECHNIQUE: Non-contrast chest CT was performed acquiring sequential axial images from the thoracic inlet through the adrenal glands. Thin section axial, coronal, sagittal and axial MIP's were also obtained. DOSE: Total DLP = 823.23mGy-cm COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: The thyroid gland is unremarkable. Several small mediastinal lymph nodes measuring up to 8 mm in short axis in the right lower paratracheal location are stable (2, 17). There are no pathologically enlarged supraclavicular, axillary, or mediastinal lymph nodes. Hilar lymphadenopathy is difficult to exclude in the absence of intravenous contrast. The patient has had prior CABG. Moderate cardiomegaly with multichamber enlargement is unchanged. Moderate aortic annular calcifications are unchanged. Extensive coronary artery calcifications and mitral annular/valvular are also all unchanged. Mild dilatation of the main pulmonary artery to 3.4 cm is also unchanged. Multiple images of the lungs are substantially degraded by respiratory motion artifact, which may limit detection of small nodules and subtle parenchymal lesions. Images were also inadvertently acquired in expiration. Geographic areas of heterogeneous attenuation in the right lung are due to air trapping or mild pulmonary edema. Bilateral bandlike areas of linear and subsegmental atelectasis are present. New moderate right and small left nonhemorrhagic pleural effusions contribute to bilateral subpleural atelectasis. The left pleural effusion is associated with visceral and parietal pleural thickening suggesting chronicity. The large area of dependent left lower lobe consolidation containing aspirated barium is progressive and associated with swirling of the bronchovascular structures, a feature of rounded atelectasis (4, 126). A similar opacity in the lingula is also larger (602, 104). A 2 mm left apical nodule is stable (4, 32). A calcified left upper lobe granuloma is incidentally noted. There is no endobronchial lesion. The patient has had prior cholecystectomy. Extensive vascular calcifications diffusely involve the descending aorta and its tributaries, particularly the splenic artery. There is mild anasarca at both partially imaged flanks. Generalized osteopenia and extensive multilevel spinal degenerative changes are present. The patient has had prior spinal fusion. There are old compression fractures at T8, T9 and L1, as well as old healed bilateral rib and sternal fractures. IMPRESSION: Motion limited exam. No evidence of pneumonia. The increasing opacity left lower lobe opacity seen on recent chest radiograph likely corresponds to progressive left lower lobe rounded atelectasis in the setting of chronic pleural thickening and chronic effusion. T here is also progressive rounded atelectasis in the lingula, and atelectasis in the right lower lobe. These opacities may be followed by chest radiography. Mild pulmonary edema and/or airtrapping. Chronic left pleural thickening. New moderate right and stable small left nonhemorrhagic pleural effusions. Extensive coronary artery calcifications. Stable mild dilatation of the main pulmonary artery suggests pulmonary arterial hypertension. Mild anasarca and small ascites. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ year old woman with CHF, now hypoxia and crackles // Please eval for edema COMPARISON: ___. IMPRESSION: Low lung volumes persist. Unchanged sternal wires and vertebral fixation devices. Moderate cardiomegaly. Small bilateral pleural effusions and mild pulmonary edema are unchanged. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST PORT.

CONTRAST: 0 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 1.1 min, 3 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Repositioning of right PICC. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Using sterile technique and local anesthesia, the existing PICC line was aspirated and flushed and a Nitinol guidewire was introduced into the superior vena cava (SVC). A peel-away sheath was then placed over a guidewire. The guidewire was then advanced into the superior vena cava. A double lumen PIC line measuring 43 cm in length was then placed through the peel-away sheath with its tip positioned in the distal SVC under fluoroscopic guidance. Position of the catheter was confirmed by a fluoroscopic spot film of the chest. The peel-away sheath and guidewire were then removed. The catheter was secured to the skin, flushed, and a sterile dressing applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate complications. FINDINGS: 1. Existing right arm approach PICC coiled in the right axillary vein, replaced with a new double lumen PIC line with tip in the distal SVC. IMPRESSION: Successful placement of a 43 cm right arm approach double lumen PowerPICC with tip in the distal SVC. The line is ready to use. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: Evaluate for hemorrhage in a ___ woman status post fall and head strike, with an elevated INR. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. DOSE: DLP: 897.1 mGy-cm CTDI: 55.5 mGy COMPARISON: Noncontrast CT head from ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute large territory infarction, hemorrhage, edema, or mass effect. Prominent ventricles and sulci are suggestive of age-related involutional changes.

Mr ___ is a ___ man with hx of bladder CA being treated w radiation who was found down in the setting of sudden onset inability to move all four extremities. Neuro exam is remarkable for quadraparesis, decreased PP in all fours. MR of the whole spine was remarkable for cord compression at C2-C3 and C3-C4 spinal stenosis with cord flattening and acute on chronic myelomalacia. Mr ___ presentation is likely ___ to compression of the cervical cord s/p fall. Spine surgery was consulted. There is no need for steroid at this time. Surgical decompression was considered but was not thought to be appropriate given his age and likely a small chance of benefit for recovery of his function. Also, patient himself is not sure about whether he wanted to undergo the surgery. He was kept in the ICU on pressors due to hypotension from spinal shock. He also developed an ileus requiring flexiseal placement. He also developed a UTI which was treated with CTX. With continued hypotension requiring pressors, a meeting was held with the patient (who remained lucid with capacity per psych eval) and family, in which the patient clearly stated he wished to be made DNR/DNI as well as CMO and Do Not Hospitalize. He felt he would have poor quality of life as a quadraparetic. Per the patient's wishes he was taken off pressors and transfered to the floor. He remained hypotensive but was intermittently awake. He required pain control for severe neck pain, and sometimes got delerious or sleepy with the pain medication. On the afternoon of ___, he expired. The family was notified and autopsy was declined.

Hemorrhage centered within the left superior cerebellar peduncle with extension into the left ambient cistern and quadrigeminal plate cistern. No underlying PCA aneurysm identified. Narrowing of the basilar and proximal PCA vessels is likely secondary to atherosclerotic disease, or potentially vasospasm if the on set of hemorrhage was greater than 3 days prior. No ischemic infarct in the PCA distributions. 2. No obvious underlying mass. There is an increased number of enhancing veins in this area which may be reactive in nature or may represent an underlying vascular anomaly. Follow-up imaging after resolution of the hemorrhage advised to further evaluate this. 3. Generalized atherosclerotic changes of the neck and intracranial arteries, with less than 50% stenosis of the right cervical internal carotid artery by NASCET criteria and no stenosis on the left. 4. Chronic right temporal parietal infarct appear similar compared to prior. 5. Marked degenerative changes of the cervical spine. MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST ___: 1. Acute to subacute punctate infarcts are present in the body of the right caudate nucleus and left occipital lobe. 2. Unchanged amount of subarachnoid hemorrhage is present within the left ambient and quadrigeminal plate cisterns with vasogenic edema in the adjacent parenchyma. There is also evidence of hemosiderin deposition in the same region. No discrete underlying lesion is demonstrated, however repeat imaging should be obtained upon resolution of the acute hemorrhage. 3. Postcontrast images are limited by patient motion, however no enhancing mass is identified. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST ___: 1. Overall stable appearance of hemorrhage centered within the left superior cerebellar peduncle, extending into the left ambient cistern and quadrigeminal plate cistern. 2. No evidence of new or enlarging hemorrhage or large territory infarct. More conspicuous subarachnoid hemorrhage in the posterior fossa is likely due to interval redistribution of blood products rather than new hemorrhage. DIAGNOSTIC ANGIOGRAM ___: Right common carotid artery: Carotid bifurcations well-visualized. There is no significant atherosclerosis or carotid stenosis. Right internal carotid artery: The distal right ICA, proximal and distal MCA and ACA branches are well-visualized. Vessel caliber smooth and tapering. Normal arterial, capillary, and venous phase . No vascular abnormalities identified. Left common carotid artery: Carotid bifurcations well-visualized. There is no significant atherosclerosis or carotid stenosis. Left internal carotid artery: Distal left ICA, proximal and distal MCA and ACA branches are well-visualized. Vessel caliber smooth and tapering. Normal arterial, capillary, and venous phase . No vascular abnormalities identified. Left vertebral artery , left ___, basilar artery, bilateral AICA, bilateral SCA and bilateral PCAs are well-visualized. The right ___ is not well visualized as there was no cross-filling to the right vertebral artery. No vascular abnormalities identified, vessel caliber smooth and tapering. Arterial, capillary, venous phases were normal . Right common femoral artery: Well-visualized with a good caliber size for closure device. CTA HEAD W AND W/O C AND RECONS ___ 1. No evidence of aneurysm, or AVM. 2. Intracranial extracranial atherosclerotic disease 3. Stable parenchymal hematoma centered at left superior, middle cerebellar peduncles and posterior left brainstem. MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST ___: Confluent subarachnoid hemorrhage with involvement of the left dorsal mid brain, pons, superior and middle cerebellar peduncles, left dentate nucleus, and subarachnoid spaces appears unchanged from ___. Signal abnormality within the left dorsal midbrain on T2 weighted images may be slightly worse, however this is likely equivocal. No definite interval infarction or intracranial hemorrhage. Etiology of hemorrhage is indeterminate, consider cavernoma. This would be atypical location for sequela of amyloid angiopathy. Vasculopathy or vasculitis is very unlikely. Follow-up to resolution is recommended to exclude underlying neoplasm. The previously identified tiny infarct within the body of the right caudate nucleus is not seen on this exam, possibly secondary to slice selection. No findings to suggest interval infarction from ___. Old infarct within the left inferior parietal lobule and lateral occipital temporal gyrus with associated hemosiderin staining. Chronic lacunar infarcts. Parenchymal atrophy, right greater than left likely a sequela of prior infarct. EEGStudy Date ___ IMPRESSION: This is an abnormal continuous ICU EEG monitoring study because of frequent epileptiform discharges in the right frontocentral region, suggesting an area of increased epileptogenicity. Continuous slowing over the left hemisphere with background attenuation suggests a structural lesion and/or cortical dysfunction in this region. Overall background slowing suggests a nonspecific encephalopathy. No electrographic seizures are present. Compared to the day prior's recording, there is no significant change. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST ___ IMPRESSION: Interval evolution of blood products centered at left brainstem, cerebellar peduncle. Follow-up MRI in 3 months suggested. Stable chronic infarcts. RECOMMENDATION(S): Follow-up MRI in 3 months. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1. Amiodarone 100 mg PO DAILY 2. Atorvastatin 80 mg PO DAILY 3.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T9112 MR HEAD. INDICATION: ___ with head bleed; traumatic vs atraumatic. Evaluate for source of bleed. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal and axial T1 weighted imaging were performed. After administration of 5 mL of Gadavist intravenous contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T1 technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and coronal orientations. COMPARISON: CTA head from ___. FINDINGS: The study is moderately limited by patient motion, particularly the MPRAGE acquisitions. Several foci of slow diffusion are demonstrated in the body of the right caudate nucleus (302:20) and left occipital lobe (320:13, 22). Subarachnoid hemorrhage within the left ambient and quadrigeminal plate cisterns causing mass effect upon the adjacent midbrain and aqueduct without occlusion is unchanged in comparison with the day prior. There is also susceptibility in this region suggestive of hemosiderin deposition. There is edema within the adjacent midbrain, left cerebellar hemisphere and left thalamus. There is no significant midline shift. An additional focus of susceptibility overlying the left parietal lobe probably reflects old blood products (12:17). The ventricles and sulci are prominent, compatible with involutional changes. T2 and FLAIR hyperintensity in the right parietal lobe is consistent with a chronic infarct. Additional periventricular and subcortical T2 and FLAIR hyperintensities most likely reflect chronic small vessel ischemic disease. Postoperative changes from a right frontotemporal craniotomy are noted. Postcontrast images are significantly limited due to patient motion, within this limitation no enhancing masses identified.

COMPARISON ___ CTA head ___ MR head with without contrast ___ CTA head neck ___ CT head without contrast ___ CT head without contrast FINDINGS: There is expected interval evolution of blood products within the left dorsal mid brain, left superior and middle cerebellar peduncle, left dorsal pons, left dentate nucleus, and within the subarachnoid space of the surrounding quadrigeminal plate and ambient cisterns. There the degree of signal abnormality within the left midbrain on T2 weighted images may be slightly worse (series 10, image 14), however this is uncertain. The cerebral aqueduct is narrowed, however appears similar in caliber. The ventricular configuration appears stable, with dilation of the lateral ventricles and third ventricle likely secondary to parenchymal volume loss. There are chronic lacunar infarcts to the level of the bilateral basal ganglia. There is moderate brain parenchymal atrophy, with atrophy in the right temporal and parietal lobes greater than on the left, likely sequela of chronic right-sided infarct. Significant atrophy of the right hippocampus. The previously identified tiny acute infarct within the body of the right caudate nucleus is not seen on this exam, possibly due to slice selection. No findings to suggest an interval infarction from the ___ MRI. The volume of subarachnoid blood products within the bilateral parietal and occipital sulci appears unchanged. The encephalomalacia within the right inferior parietal lobule and lateral occipital temporal gyrus likely reflects a sequela of an old infarct, with residual hemosiderin staining. Additionally, there is an old infarct within the right inferior cerebellar hemisphere. Areas of hyperintense signal within the subcortical and periventricular white matter the, but likely reflect the sequela of moderate chronic small vessel disease. The major vascular flow voids are preserved. Small foci of susceptibility artifact within the left superior parietal lobule and right superior cerebellar hemisphere likely reflect chronic microhemorrhage and appear unchanged.

The patient is a ___ w mechanical MV and atrial fibrillation on Coumadin who p/w intraparenchymal and perimesencephalic hemorrhage after mechanical fall. Upon multiple discussions with Neuroradiology, the etiology of the hemorrhage remains ultimately unclear, but the leading diagnosis is underlying cavernous malformation. At the OSH, his INR was 2.56 and his platelets were 159. He was given 2 mg of IM vitamin K for reversal prior to transfer. Anti-coagulation was held for 5 days in the setting of his intraparenchymal and perimesencephalic hemorrhage. In discussions with cardiology, given his high risk for further embolization in the setting of a mechanical MV and atrial fibrillation, we resumed anti-coagulation with heparin on ___. He continued to complain of a severe headache, which was treated with a trial of acetazolamide. Clinically, the patient had initially been very alert and stable upon resumption of heparin. However, he experienced an acute change in mental status/neuro exam on morning of ___, becoming acutely somnolent, rigid, with right hemiplegia and right gaze deviation. The etiology is still unclear regarding acute change. His exam at the time included right-sided hemiplegia and right gaze-deviation, which could be from hemorrhagic or ischemic involvement in his already affected left dorsal mid brain, pons, superior and cerebellar peduncles, and left dentate nucleus. Repeat imaging with non-con head CT and MRI w and w/o contrast showed relative stability of the IPH and was not conclusive for additional hemorrhage or infarct, although the sensitivity of imaging was confounded by the pre-existing blood. Anti-coagulation with heparin was continued in the absence of hemorrhagic evolution. Acetazolamide was discontinued given his acute change in mental status. The simplest explanation may be that the blood from his perimesencephalic hemorrhage may have resulted in mechanical pressure leading to compression of his paramedian arteries resulting in a localized infarct, vs. re-bleeding from the same focus. The old blood surrounding this area may compound our ability to detect a new infarct on MRI. Alternatively, since he has been off anticoagulation for several days, he may have also had an ischemic infarct from a seeded embolus from his mechanical mitral valve. We evaluated his mechanical valve via ECHO and did not detect signs of thrombus formation. A similar lesion in the midbrain reticular formation may also explain his somnolence and acute change in consciousness. As there was no clear difference on imaging for his acute change in mental status, we pursued an empiric diagnostic approach, including a trial of 2mg IV ativan out of concern for seizure, which had no clinical effect. Although continuous video EEG was negative for seizures, he did have frequent sharp wave discharges in the right frontal central region across F4-C4. We continued him on keppra 750 mg BID out of concern for a lower seizure threshold and a prior CVA representing a possible seizure focus. Alternative explanations for his altered mental status were also discussed and included metabolic derangements vs infectious etiologies, although the sudden change would be atypical. We discussed the possibility that his hemorrhage may have resulted from a possible infectious etiology, such as listeria, which sometimes presents with rhomboencephalitis. Although he was not reported to be clinically sick prior to his fall, out of concern for a possible infectious etiology with an atypical clinical presentation, we also started him on empiric antibiotic treatment with vancomycin (which was discontinued within 4 days), ampicillin, and ceftriaxone (2g BID). Although unlikely to be infectious, his clinical exam began to improve, while he has been on antibiotic therapy, the possibility of rhomboencephalitis (such as caused by listeria or mycobacteria) cannot be ignored. He was treated empirically with Ampicillin for 3 weeks. This was subsequently discontinued and he remained stable without infectious sign/symptoms. He has also developed what appears to be dystonic posturing on the right hemibody as well as worsening dysarthria and rigidity that could be reflectively of worsening parkinsonism in the setting of an acute injury affecting extrapyramidal pathways in the brainstem. This resolved with a trial of amantadine. His mental status began to improve with return to baseline within 4 days of his acute change. He was initially NG-tube dependent in the setting of his acute change but has improved and began to tolerate adequate PO intake. Coumadin was initiated on ___ with continued heparin bridge until his INR reached 2.0 on ___. Heparin was discontinued and coumadin was continued for goal INR 2.5-3.5. His hospital course was further complicated by delirium resulting in ongoing attempts to pull out his NG tube as well as his foley. Urology was consulted out of concern for ongoing hematuria. They recommended to keep his foley in place for at least ___ days to tamponade a possible abrasion site. He also developed a transient pre-renal ___ secondary to contrast and decreased PO intake which resolved with gentle IV hydration. # Perimesencephalic and intraparenchymal hemorrhage, later complicated by acute change in mental status - continue warfarin for goal INR 2.5-3.5 - repeat MRI with and without gadolinium by ___ (he has a pacemaker that is MR-compatible but this may require cardiology's involvement during MR scan pending hospital/radiology protocol) - monitor for adequate PO intake - continue ___, OT, speech therapy # Concern for infectious/auto-immune etiology for perimesencaphilc/intraparenchymal hemorrhage - blood cultures, urine cultures negative - Serum Listeria antibodies negative - autoimmune workup negative # ___ disease - continue amantadine - titrate dose of carvidopa/levidopa as needed # ___ - resolved, likely pre-renal in setting of poor PO and IV contrast # Hematuria - secondary to self-removal of foley in setting of anti-coagulation.

The cause of Mr. ___ transient lip numbness and lightheadedness was unclear. We doubted a TIA or vascular event. His head CT in the ED showed old infarcts, and he was slightly dehydrated. Therefore, we admitted him for observation, hydration, and to investigate the cause(s) of his prior infarcts. He was started on 325 ASA and stroke risk factors were assessed: his lipids were total cholesterol 150, LDL 76, HDL 56, HbA1C 5.9%. Repeat exam the following morning was nonfocal and stable. He had a TTE, which was unrevealing. Telemetry showed no evidence of atrial fibrillation. We planned to obtain a MRI/MRA head without contrast and MRA neck with contrast during his admission. Mr. ___ initially refused to undergo the MRI, unless his brother was present. We attempted to obtain it the following day, but this could not be done due to scheduling conflicts. Therefore, we elected to obtain his MRI as an outpatient within 1 week of discharge. Mr. ___ was in good condition upon discharge, with clear understanding of the reasons and need for undergoing MRI. He will follow up in the stroke clinic with Dr. ___, his Neurologist.

___ female with stage IV endometrial cancer on anastrazole, DM2, CAD, CKD, chronic respiratory failure with hypoxemia on home oxygen, and morbid obesity presents from her PCP's office with chest discomfort and possible EKG changes in the context of a gastrointestinal illness. . # Nausea/vomiting/diarrhea Patient presented following three days of diarrhea, nausea, and dry heaving. This was more severe than her chronic diarrhea from radiation, and was likely the result of a viral or bacterial gastroenteritis. Stool studies and C. diff testing were negative, and according to the patient's oncologist, Arimidex was not likely causative. Ondansetron was originally given for nausea but this was changed to compazine given concern about QTc prolongation. The nausea and vomiting resolved over the course of the hospital stay, and the diarrhea improved significantly. . # Chest pain Patient presented with chest discomfort that occurred in the context of dry heaving. Her PCP was concerned about EKG changes (septal Q waves and T wave inversions), especially concerning given the patient's significant history of CAD, including an MI that led to a cardiac catheterization in ___ (occlusion of the cardiac vessels was found at that time but patient did not tolerate the procedure and no intervention was done). However, following admission the patient noted that the discomfort was different from the pressure she had felt during her prior MI, and repeat EKG was similar to prior baseline (___). Troponins were elevated to 0.21 but downtrended. The overall presentation was not considered highly concerning for acute coronary syndrome, so anticoagulation was avoided given baseline thrombocytopenia. Cardiology (Atrius) was consulted and agreed that this was likely demand ischemia in the context of hypovolemia rather than ACS. . # Fever/GNR bacteremia (E.Coli) Febrile to 100.4 at ED, and had several further low-grade fevers on the floor. UA was positive for nitrites, and given diarrhea, GI was considered another possible source of infection. She was started on Bactrim on ___, but this was changed to meropenem on ___ when blood cultures grew gram negative rods. This was continued despite final culture results showing pan-sensitive E. coli due to concern about cross-reactivity of cephalosporins with a penicillin allergy and fluoroquinolones in the context of prolonged QTc. ID consulted and determined that it was likely safe for her to try ceftriaxone, which she did on ___, and she was discharged on this after PICC placement. Surveillance blood cultures were negative. Renal U/S and CT scan of abd/pelvis were obtained, which did not show evidence of abscess. She did have a fluid collection in the abdomen, but this is known from prior imaging approximately 1 month ago, and has improved in size. The collection is most likely a seroma. . #Pancytopenia Downtrending WBCs (to 1.5), hematocrit, and platelets; she was placed on neutropenic precautions. Possibly secondary to infection, antibiotics (Bactrim or meropenem), or other medication effect. OSH records showed baseline WBCs over past few months in 3s following radiation treatment. Although the levels did not return to baseline, they stabilized prior to discharge, and she will follow up with her outpatient providers. . # Elevated bicarb Bicarb elevated to 33 on admission, likely representing a metabolic alkalosis due to GI losses from diarrhea. Metabolic compensation for a chronic respiratory acidosis may also have contributed. Trended down shortly after admission. . # Diabetes Patient's home NPH was continued, and she was placed on an insulin sliding scale. . # Endometrial cancer Completed radiation therapy; not a candidate for chemo. Arimidex was continued. . TRANSITIONAL ISSUES 1. complete course of IV antibiotics for E. coli bacteremia 2. repeat CBC in 2 days to monitor leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia 3. repeat LFT's at PCP ___ 4. non-emergent MRI head to evaluate small hypodensity seen on CT head from ___ (see below for report) 5. consider serial imaging of abdomen to monitor lesions in right kidney and fluid collection in abdomen. .

Discharge Disposition: Home Discharge Diagnosis: Primary diagnosis: right internal jugular vein thrombosis, post-parathyroidectomy neck edema Secondary diagnosis: HIV on HAART, end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ man status post parathyroidectomy, now with swelling. COMPARISON: None. TECHNIQUE: Neck ultrasound. FINDINGS: The left internal jugular is patent and compressible; however, the right internal jugular shows non-compressibility with thrombus within it. This thrombus shows some retraction and is partially occlusive in several areas with peripheral flow, but in other areas it appears to fill the entire vessel. The clot extends from the superior aspect of the posterior triangle of the neck down to the confluence of the internal jugular and subclavian, however, does not appear to extend into the superior vena cava or the subclavian. There are several enlarged lymph nodes on the left (up to 1.5 cm in the long axis) labeled as levels 2, 3 and 4. On the right side, a node at labeled level 3 measures up to 2 cm. Images of the thyroid show normal echotexture with no evidence of masses or lesions. Right thyroid measures 2.6 x 2.5 x 4.2 cm and the left thyroid measures 1.9 x 1.9 x 4.1 cm. Superficial to the isthmus, there is a complex area of cystic-appearing structure with linear internal echoes measuring 2.0 x 4.4 x 0.9 cm. IMPRESSION: 1. Partially occlusive clot with some retraction in the right internal jugular vein. 2. Complex collection superficial to the isthmus. This is potentially postop changes, but should be followed with repeat ultrasound. 3. Multiple enlarged lymph nodes bilaterally. Again these are likely reactive nodes secondary to postop changes; however, these could also be followed on the repeat ultrasound. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ male with right upper extremity AV fistula, presenting with clot in the right internal jugular vein. TECHNIQUE AND FINDINGS: Ultrasound evaluation of the right upper extremity AV fistula was performed with B mode, color and spectral Doppler ultrasound. The native brachial artery proximal to the AV fistula is patent with peak systolic velocities ranging between 249 cm/sec and 299 cm/sec. At the level of the brachial artery to basilic vein anastomosis, the peak systolic velocity is 675 cm/sec. Peak systolic velocities in the venous outflow of the fistula ranged between 66 cm/sec and 165 cm/sec. Access volume flow measurements were obtained, demonstrating 1422 ml/min, 1403 ml/min and 2030 ml/min, with a mean of 1618 ml/min. IMPRESSION: 1. Patent brachial to basilic AV fistula with no evidence of intraluminal thrombus. 2. Elevated peak systolic velocities at the level of the arterial anastomosis. 3. Elevated access volume flow (mean 1618 ml/min).

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Out of Bed with assistance to chair or wheelchair. Can walk while monitored but has significant lean to right when upright. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report STUDY: MRI and MRA of the brain and MRA of the neck. CLINICAL INDICATION: History of ataxia, dizziness, possible cerebellar stroke, clots, occlusion. COMPARISON: Prior head CT dated ___. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1, axial T2, axial FLAIR, axial magnetic susceptibility, and axial diffusion-weighted sequences were obtained through the brain. MRA OF THE HEAD: 3D time-of-flight arteriography of the head was obtained, axial source images and multiplanar reformations were reviewed. MRA OF THE NECK: After the administration of intravenous gadolinium contrast, bolus tracking technique sequences were obtained throughout the neck vessels, coronal source images and multiplanar reformations were reviewed. FINDINGS: On the diffusion-weighted sequence, there is a focus of wall diffusion on the right at the level of the medulla oblongata, visible on the image #4, series #6, which is not clearly evident in the corresponding ADC. No FLAIR or T2 abnormalities are seen in this area, the possibility of hyperacute ischemic event is a consideration. A perivascular space is identified on the right side of the pons, the cerebellopontine cisterns and fourth ventricle are unremarkable. Supratentorially, the ventricles and sulci are slightly prominent, likely indicating cortical volume loss, and possibly age related and involutional in nature. Few scattered foci of high signal intensity are identified in the subcortical white matter, which are nonspecific and may reflect areas of small vessel disease. The major vascular flow voids are present and demonstrate normal distribution. The orbits are unremarkable. The paranasal sinuses demonstrate mild mucosal thickening at the ethmoidal air cells bilaterally, the mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: Focal area of slow diffusion identified on the right medulla oblongata as described in detail above, visible only on the DWI sequence, suggesting a hyperacute ischemic change, please correlate clinically. Scattered foci of high signal intensity are identified in the subcortical white matter on FLAIR and T2, which are nonspecific and may reflect areas of small vessel disease. Mild mucosal thickening noted at the ethmoidal air cells. MRA OF THE HEAD: There is evidence of vascular flow in both internal carotid arteries as well as the vertebrobasilar system, the right vertebral artery is dominant. The anterior and middle cerebral arteries are patent as well as the posterior cerebral arteries, with no evidence of flow stenotic lesions or aneurysms larger than 2 mm in size. IMPRESSION: Essentially normal MRA of the head, with no evidence of flow stenotic lesions. The right vertebral artery is dominant. MRA OF THE NECK: The origin of the supra-aortic vessels appears normal, both common carotid arteries are patent with no evidence of flow stenotic lesions, there is significant tortuosity along the left internal carotid artery and also significant tortuosity on the right internal carotid artery below the P2 segment with no evidence of flow stenotic lesions. The right vertebral artery is dominant. IMPRESSION: Tortuosity of both internal carotid arteries, with no evidence of flow stenotic lesions. Dominance of the right vertebral artery is present as a vascular anatomical variation. These findings were communicated to Dr. ___ at 13:05 hours on ___, via phone call by Dr. ___.

NEURO: Mr. ___ was admitted for further imaging and ECHO. His exam on admission was notable for right sided dysmetria with significant ataxia (fell to right on standing), nystagmus that changed direction with gaze, blurry vision/ghosting but no frank diplopia, mild right facial droop, and decreased sensation on the right face and left arm and leg. This picture of right sided ataxia and facial sensation changes and left body sensation changes was concerning for a lateral medullary (___) syndrome though it was unusual that there was no Horner's Syndrome. MRI/MRA did show a small right medullary infarct but no problems with the vasculature. Stroke work-up included an ECHO that showed normal systolic function and no ASD/PFO and labs, which showed an adequately controlled cholesterol (LDL 54, HDL 38, ___ 129) but a slightly elevated HgbA1c of 6.9%. Telemetry revealed sinus arrhythmia but no atrial fibrillation. Mr. ___ was switched from Aspirin to Plavix in hopes of secondary stroke prevention but no other medication changes were made. Physical therapy felt that he would need ___ rehabilitation. Nutrition recommended a diet of moist ground solids and nectar thick liquids due to aspiration risk. ENDO: Mr. ___ metformin and glipizide were held due to contrast CT. We spoke to his outpatient endocrinologist who reported that normally Mr. ___ uses Lantus on a sliding scale basis based on fasting AM blood glucose (0 if BG<150; 14u if 150-200; 18u if >200). We gave him 20units QHS of Lantus and an insulin sliding scale because he had BG 200-300s frequently through admission. Before discharge, we restarted Glipizide and Metformin and we restarted his home Lantus plan; this may have to be adjusted at rehab, especially given he had HgbA1c of 6.9%.

Following her admission, Mrs ___ underwent a CT scan that failed to show a transition point. Because of this fact and how her ostomy continued to produce liquid stool and flatus, it was determined that there was no surgical pathology causing her symptoms at this time. Her stoma was also intubated with a red rubber catheter, which facilitated the passage of stool. Her nausea and vomiting decreased and she continued to progress over the next two days to the point where she was tolerating a regular diet well. Her pain and other symptoms were well controlled and she was able to ambulate independently. The catheter fell out of the stoma numerous times. We then decided to place a nasal trumpet into the stoma and stitch it in place. Stomal output was good and the patient was discharged home with stomal care instructions. She will also receive a course of rifaximin 550 mg TID for 14 days, per GI recommendations.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ man status post fall one day ago with weakness and dizziness today. CTA demonstrating splenic laceration with active extravasation. Angiographic assessment with potential splenic artery embolization is requested in the setting of hemodynamic stability. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ (fellow) and Dr. ___ (attending) performed the procedure. PROCEDURE PERFORMED: 1. Celiac axis and selective splenic artery arteriograms. 2. Selective lower pole branch arteriogram. 3. Embolization of lower pole splenic artery branch. ANALGESIA: Moderate sedation was achieved by providing divided doses of 300 mcg of fentanyl and 4 mg of midazolam during the total intraservice time of 1 hour and 25 minutes. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Written informed consent was obtained outlining the risks, benefits, and potential complications of the procedure. The patient was brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the imaging table. A preprocedure timeout was performed as per ___ protocol. Using a combined palpatory and fluoroscopic guidance approach and following administration of local anesthetic, the right common femoral artery was accessed with a 19 gauge single wall puncture needle. A 0.035 ___ wire was easily advanced into the lower thoracic aorta. The needle was removed and following a 2-mm incision, a 5 ___ vascular sheath was advanced over the ___ wire and into the common femoral artery. The inner dilator was removed and a sheath was attached to a continuous heparinized saline sidearm flush. A 5 ___ C2 glide catheter was then used to selectively cannulate the celiac axis. Run performed from this position demonstrated a large celiac trunk towards the right with relatively elongated splenic artery. Three areas of active extravasation were identified involving the lower pole of the spleen. Subsequently, a Glidewire was used to gain further purchase of the C2 glide catheter into the splenic artery. DSA run was performed from that position. The latter redemonstrated multiple active bleeding sources involving the lower pole of the spleen, all of them supplied by a lower pole splenic artery branch. Accordingly, a decision was made against proximal splenic artery embolization and selective embolization of the supplying lower pole splenic branch. Hence the combination of Renegade ___ and a double-angled Glidewire was used to select the lower pole branch. Another DSA run performed with the microcatheter confirmed the previous findings and was used to fine tune the position of the microcatheter for subsequent coiling. Subsequently, 5 and 6-mm Hilal Cook embolization coils were deployed in the lower pole splenic artery branch. A control run performed over the 5 ___ C2 glide catheter demonstrated satisfactory result with cessation of previously identified active extravasation and markedly reduced parenchymal blush involving the lower pole of the spleen. The catheter and the sheath were removed and hemostasis achieved by holding pressure for about 20 minutes. IMPRESSION: 1. Multiple areas of active extravasation involving the lower pole of the spleen, all of which supplied by a single lower pole artery. 2. Selective coil embolization of supplying low pole artery. Radiology Report HISTORY: Recent splenic artery embolization, new abdominal distention and tympany. FINDINGS: Single portable supine view of the abdomen is submitted. The bowel gas pattern is unremarkable without evidence of ileus or obstruction. The left upper quadrant embolization coil is appreciated. Bony structures and remaining soft tissues are grossly unremarkable, some vascular calcification. IMPRESSION: No ileus or obstruction. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ man with splenic laceration following selective splenic artery embolization with continuous oozing down-trend of hematocrit. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ (fellow), Dr. ___, Dr. ___ ___ and Dr. ___. PROCEDURES PERFORMED: 1. Selective splenic artery arteriogram. 2. Reinforcement of selective lower pole splenic artery embolization by use of additional coils, Gelfoam and glue. 3. Proximal splenic artery embolization between the dorsal pancreatic and pancreatic magna. MEDICATION: Moderate sedation was achieved by providing divided doses of 6 mg of midazolam and 275 mcg of fentanyl during the entire procedure time of 280 minutes. RADIATION DOSE: 4867 mGy. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was brought to the angio suite and placed supine on the imaging table. A preprocedure timeout was performed as per ___ protocol. Using a combined palpatory and fluoroscopic guidance and following administration of local anesthetic, the right common femoral artery was accessed with a 19-gauge single wall puncture needle. A 0.035 ___ wire was easily advanced into the lower aorta and the needle then exchanged for a 5 ___ vascular sheath. The latter was attached to a continuous heparinized saline sidearm flush. A combination of Glidewire and 5 ___ C2 Glide catheter was then used to access the celiac trunk and advance the Glide catheter into the splenic artery. A DSA run performed from that position demonstrated persistent flow through the recently coiled lower pole splenic artery with signs of partial recanalization and identification of one active bleeding source. Once again no active extravasation was seen involving the remainder of the spleen. In an attempt to reinforce the lower pole artery embolization, four additional 5 mm Cook Hilal embolization coils were placed in the existing coil pack. This was performed after introducing a Renegade ___ microcatheter and advancing it by help of a 0.018 double J glidewire. In addition, about 2 cc of Gelfoam was deployed in the coil pack. Subsequently, Dermabond glue was mixed with lipiodol (1:4), the microcatheter in the coil pack primed with D5 solution and a small amount of glue injected in the area of the coil pack. However, as visualistion of the glue was suboptimal, we refrained from a more aggressive approach or occlusion of the entire feeding vessel. The microcatheter was then removed and an additional run performed over the main 5 ___ catheter. The latter demonstrated significant reduction of flow in the lobe artery, however, with residual flow and mild active extravasation despite all previous treatment attempts. Accordingly, a decision was made to at add a proximal splenic artery embolization between the dorsal pancreatic and pancreatic magna arteries. To this end, Renegade ___ catheter was advanced with a Transcend wire and adequately positioned. As 10 mm Hilal embolization coils would not form in the splenic artery, four 22 mm GDC coils were eventually deployed proximal to the pancreatic magna, resulting in subtotal occlusion of the splenic artery with cessation of active extravasation and significant reduction of parenchymal blush involving the lower splenic pole. At this point, note was also made of a new perfusion deficit involving the upper pole of the spleen, likely related to some degree of non-targeted embolization by previous Gelfoam injection. Given the satisfactory result, all catheters and the sheath were withdrawn and manual pressure was applied for 20 minutes. The patient withstood the procedure well and there were no immediate complications. IMPRESSION: 1. Reinforcement of selective lower pole splenic artery embolization by means of additional coils, Gelfoam and glue. 2. Performance of proximal splenic artery embolization.
