Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Postoperative day 6 status post complex ventral hernia repair with mesh and small bowel resection. Patient now presenting with ileus. Evaluate for source of ileus, intra-abdominal fluid collection or obstruction. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis after the uneventful administration of 130 ml of Omnipaque. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided and reviewed. Gastrografin as oral contrast anterior abdomen. Cutaneous laparotomy staples are noted. A small fluid collection beneath the incision measuring 3.1 x 2.3 cm is likely a postoperative seroma. Administered. DOSE: DLP: 1073.52 mGy-cm COMPARISON: CT abdomen and pelvis ___. FINDINGS: Oral contrast has progressed to the proximal jejunum. Dilated loops of small bowel range in size up to the 4.6 cm. There is a transition in small bowel caliber seen in the left lower quadrant (602b:65). The distal loops of small bowel are decompressed. A small amount of contrast is seen in the colon from prior CT examination. Findings are consistent with a small bowel obstruction. This is thought to be from an adhesion given the adjacent narrowing and angulation without obstruction seen on the nearby and proximal jejunum (2:63). There is a trace amount of mesenteric edema, presumably from recent surgery. There is no bowel wall edema. There is no extraluminal contrast. The imaged lung bases show bibasilar atelectasis. There is no pleural effusion. The included portion of the heart is normal in size and there is no pericardial effusion. A small focus of air seen in the anterior abdomen is probably within the rectus sheath (02:58). There is no definite free air. 2 subcutaneous drains terminate in the subcutaneous fat of the anterior abdominal wall. The liver enhances homogeneously without focal lesions. The gallbladder is normal and there is no intra or extrahepatic biliary ductal dilation. The spleen, pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. The kidneys enhance symmetrically and excrete contrast without hydronephrosis. The aorta is normal caliber. The portal vein, splenic vein and superior mesenteric vein are patent. The bladder, prostate and rectum are normal. There is no pelvic or inguinal sidewall lymphadenopathy. There are no lytic or blastic osseous lesions. IMPRESSION: 1. Complete obstruction with transition in the left lower quadrant. Given the adjacent narrowing and angulation without obstruction on the nearby the jejunum, this is felt to be secondary to an adhesion. No bowel wall edema or intra-abdominal free air. 2. Bilateral subcutaneous drains are well positioned. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed by Dr. ___ with ___ via telephone on ___ at 2:04 ___, 15 minutes after discovery of the findings. Gender: M Race: WHITE Arrive by WALK IN Chief complaint: Abd pain, Abdominal distention Diagnosed with INTESTINAL OBSTRUCT NOS, HX OF COLONIC MALIGNANCY temperature: 98.6 heartrate: 80.0 resprate: 18.0 o2sat: 95.0 sbp: 143.0 dbp: 98.0 level of pain: 1 level of acuity: 3.0
Mr. ___ was admitted from the emergency department on ___. He was initially seen at his PCP's office where a KUB was done showing distended loops of bowel concerning for small bowel obstruction. On evaluation in the ED, CT scan of the abdomen showed a complex network of ventral hernias with multiple loops of bowel incarcerated within the hernia. He was admitted to the Acute Care Surgery team for management and operative discussion/planning. Mr. ___ was taken to the OR on ___ and underwent an exploratory laparotomy with bilateral rectus abdominis component separation repair of abdominal wall defect with polypropylene mesh and small bowel resection with primary anastomosis, performed by Dr. ___. He tolerated the procedure well without any complications and was taken to the post-anesthesia care unit in stable condition. At the end of the procedure, Mr. ___ had 2 JP drains in the space overlaying the mesh and an NG tube for decompression of the stomach. In the immediate post-operative period, Mr. ___ at an epidural for pain control and foley catheter while he had an epidural. The NG tube was removed a few days after the operation and he was started on sips of clears, awaiting return of bowel function. However, after a few days, Mr. ___ became increasingly distended and had an episode of emesis. He was again kept NPO, started on IV fluids, and given a PCA for pain control temporarily. An NGT had to be placed to decompress the stomach after a second episode of bilious vomiting. Once he began passing flatus, he was started on a clear diet and diet was advanced as tolerated while he continued to pass flatus. During the recovery period, he was also started antibiotics for some mild non-demarcatable erythema noted over the incision, especially given the risk of mesh infection. The JP drains remained serosanguinous in output. On discharge, Mr. ___ continued to pass flatus, although he had not had a bowel movement. He was tolerating a regular diet without any nausea and vomiting and continued on a bowel regimen. He was eager to be discharged and acknowledge that should he not have a bowel movement in 48 hours, he should call the clinic or return to the ED. He was given instructions for medications and scheduled to follow-up early next week for staple removal and JP drain removal and then another 2 weeks after for follow-up.

Midline sternotomy wires and mediastinal clips again noted. Overlying EKG leads are present. The heart is stably mildly enlarged. Prominence of the superior mediastinum reflects known hematoma in the retropharyngeal space extending into the superior mediastinum as seen on same-day neck CT. Lungs are clear bilaterally. Bony structures appear intact. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 8:32 AM IMPRESSION: 1. No acute hemorrhage or fracture. 2. Chronic small vessel disease. 3. Small left ___ hematoma. CT NECK W/O CONTRAST (EG: PAROTIDS) Study Date of ___ 8:45 AM IMPRESSION: Massive pre-vertebral hematoma with associated hyper extension teardrop fracture at C4 without alignment abnormality or distraction. Recommend urgent CTA to assess active bleeding. CTA NECK W&W/OC & RECONS Study Date of ___ 9:21 AM IMPRESSION: 1. Extensive retropharyngeal hematoma spanning from C2 through T1, measuring 4.6 x 2.6 cm axially with active extravasation. Unclear whether this represents active extravasation from prevertebral artery versus retropharyngeal branch artery, although the associated vessel does appear to be likely prevertebral (series 2, image 144). Consultation with neurosurgery is recommended. 2. An additional linear focus of hyperdensity along the lateral aspect of the hematoma inferiorly (series 2, image 103) cannot be connected to a larger vessel. This could represent venous hemorrhage. Close attention on ___ is recommended. 3. Additional findings described above. CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 4:25 ___ IMPRESSION: 1. A large retropharyngeal hematoma extends into the superior mediastinum, not appreciably changed compared to the earlier same day neck CTA. There is mild mass effect on the posterior wall of the trachea, but no significant luminal narrowing. 2. Somewhat nodular opacification focally within the anterior right lower lobe probably reflects atelectasis. However, recommend three-month ___ chest CT to assess stability. CT NECK W/O CONTRAST (EG: PAROTIDS) Study Date of ___ 4:25 ___ IMPRESSION: 1. Re-demonstration of retropharyngeal hematoma extending from C2 through the right aspect of the posterior mediastinum, slightly decreased in size from the prior study with non-visualized hematocrit levels previously seen, likely secondary to mass effect from endotracheal tubes and intubation. 2. The hematoma extends to the posterior mediastinum. The component in the mediastinum appears more prominent when compared to prior examination. This could represent redistribution, however the findings could represent continued active extravasation and close interval ___ is recommended to document stability/growth.

Prominence of the superior mediastinum reflects known hematoma in the retropharyngeal space extending into the superior mediastinum as seen on same-day neck CT. Lungs are clear bilaterally. Bony structures appear intact. IMPRESSION: As above. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ with history of headstrike on Coumadin// eval for intracranial hemorrhage TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. DOSE: Total DLP (Head) = 803 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT head ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of large vascular territory infarction,hemorrhage,edema,or mass effect. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci suggestive of involutional changes. Again demonstrated, is severe periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities, consistent with chronic microvascular ischemic disease. Bilateral basal ganglia and thalamic hypodensities are also noted similar to prior. There is no fracture. Mild mucosal thickening of the sphenoid sinus. The visualized portion of the remaining paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. There is a small ___ and preseptal hematoma without underlying fracture or signs of globe injury. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute hemorrhage or fracture. 2. Chronic small vessel disease. 3. Small left ___ hematoma. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT NECK W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old woman with history of neck fullness on Coumadin with concern for collection// eval for hematoma TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT through the neck performed without contrast with multiplanar reformations DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 310 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is a massive midline prevertebral hematoma approximately 12.8 cm in craniocaudal dimension and 6.8 (TR) x 4.4 (AP) cm. Urgent CTA is required to assess active bleeding, ? carotid injury. There is associated mass-effect on the airway most pronounced at the level of the epiglottis. Consider urgent intubation for airway protection. An acute hyperextension fracture is noted at the anterior inferior corner of C4 without distraction or alignment abnormality. Fracture is best appreciated on the sagittal reformats, series 602b image 28 through 31. There is minimal anterolisthesis of C2 on C3 which is likely chronic/related to degeneration. Disc disease is most notable spanning C4 through C7 with loss of disc space, disc osteophyte complexes which result in mild to moderate central spinal canal narrowing. In addition, uncovertebral joint hypertrophy noted at multiple levels results in severe neural foraminal narrowing at C4-5 and C5-6 on the left. The lung apices notable for emphysema. Prevertebral hematoma extends to the level of the superior mediastinum. Thyroid is unremarkable. IMPRESSION: Massive prevertebral hematoma with associated hyper extension teardrop fracture at C4 without alignment abnormality or distraction. Recommend urgent CTA to assess active bleeding. RECOMMENDATION(S): -Intubation for airway protection. -C-spine collar placement given acute fracture at C4. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA NECK WANDW/OC AND RECONS Q25 CT NECK INDICATION: History: ___ with head strike with prevertebral hematoma on CT// eval for dissection or active extravasation in the neck TECHNIQUE: Rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the skull base during infusion of 70 mL of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered, curved reformatted and segmented images were generated. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Stationary Acquisition 6.0 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 65.3 mGy (Head) DLP = 32.7 mGy-cm. 2) Spiral Acquisition 4.3 s, 33.7 cm; CTDIvol = 35.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,186.8 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 1,219 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT neck of ___ FINDINGS: There is a retropharyngeal hematoma spanning from the level of C2 to T1, measuring 12.3 cm with max diameter measuring 4.6 x 2.9 cm on the axial dimension, overall similar in prior examination. Of note, there is a fluid fluid level within the ___ the hematoma (series 2, image 135). At the level C3-4 disc space, there is vigorous, active extravasation of intravenous contrast into the hematoma (2:150). The hematoma appears to be connected to a small prevertebral arterial vessel (series 2, image 144) although this region of enhancement cannot be definitively connected to a larger vessel. The expanded hematoma displaces the esophagus anteriorly and somewhat narrows the airways, though the central airways remain patent. The retroperitoneal hematoma extends into the mediastinum to the level of pulmonary artery bifurcation. There is trace linear hyperdensity, likely representing additional site of extravasation (series 2, image 103) at the level of the thyroid gland, without definitive source. There is layering fluid in the sphenoid sinus. Mild mucosal thickening is seen in the posterior ethmoid air cells. The visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, middle ear cavities are otherwise patent. Moderate calcifications are seen at the bilateral carotid siphons. While this exam is not tailored for intracranial contents, the visualized circle of ___ appears patent. No territorial infarct is seen. Prominent left periorbital hematoma and soft tissue stranding is noted. By NASCET criteria, there is no significant stenosis of the ICA bilaterally. The left vertebral artery is diminutive throughout its course, likely congenital variation. Degenerative changes of the cervical spine with disc space and vertebral body height loss, most severe at C4 through C7 is noted. C4 anterior teardrop fracture is better visualized on prior examination. IMPRESSION: 1. Extensive retropharyngeal hematoma spanning from C2 through T1, measuring 4.6 x 2.6 cm axially with active extravasation. Unclear whether this represents active extravasation from prevertebral artery versus retropharyngeal branch artery, although the associated vessel does appear to be likely prevertebral (series 2, image 144). Consultation with neurosurgery is recommended. 2. An additional linear focus of hyperdensity along the lateral aspect of the hematoma inferiorly (series 2, image 103) cannot be connected to a larger vessel. This could represent venous hemorrhage. Close attention on followup is recommended. 3. Additional findings described above. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with ___ resident by ___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 10:03 am, 5 minutes after discovery of the findings. The findings were discussed with ___, M.D. by ___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 10:30 am, 30 minutes after discovery of the findings. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ with s/p intubation// Eval ETT COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: AP portable upright view of the chest. There has been interval placement of an endotracheal tube with its tip positioned 3.2 cm above the carina. An OG tube courses into the left upper abdomen with its tip excluded from view. Midline sternotomy wires and mediastinal clips are again noted. There is mediastinal widening which is reflective of known prevertebral/mediastinal hematoma, appears increased from prior. The heart remains stably enlarged. Lungs are clear. Bony structures are intact. IMPRESSION: Interval intubation with appropriately positioned ET tube. OG tube positioned appropriately. Expanding mediastinal hematoma. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT NECK W/O CONTRAST (EG: PAROTIDS) Q21 CT NECK INDICATION: ___ year old woman with retropharyngeal hematoma// ?interval change TECHNIQUE: Imaging was performed after administration of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. MDCT acquired helical axial images were obtained from the thoracic inlet through the skull base. Coronal and sagittal multiplanar reformats were then produced and reviewed. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 3.5 s, 27.7 cm; CTDIvol = 5.4 mGy (Body) DLP = 148.6 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 149 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT neck ___ FINDINGS: In comparison with the recent CT neck, there is interval decrease in size of a retropharyngeal hematoma which now measures 4.2 x 1.7 cm, previously 4.6 x 2.9 cm. The previously seen hematocrit levels are not visualized on this study. This could be secondary to mass effect from intubation and the endotracheal tubes. The hematoma extends from C2 through visualized right aspect of the posterior mediastinum. However, the extent of hematoma within the mediastinum appears more prominent when compared to prior examination and findings remain concerning for active extravasation versus redistribution secondary to mass effect from the intubation. There is stranding within the soft tissues of the lower neck. There are subcentimeter cervical lymph nodes, possibly reactive. There are vascular calcifications of the aorta and origins of the great vessels. The thyroid gland appears unremarkable. There are multilevel degenerative changes of the cervical spine. There is dependent atelectasis within the visualized lung apices. IMPRESSION: 1. Redemonstration of retropharyngeal hematoma extending from C2 through the right aspect of the posterior mediastinum, slightly decreased in size from the prior study with nonvisualized hematocrit levels previously seen, likely secondary to mass effect from endotracheal tubes and intubation. 2. The hematoma extends to the posterior mediastinum. The component in the mediastinum appears more prominent when compared to prior examination. This could represent redistribution, however the findings could represent continued active extravasation and close interval followup is recommended to document stability/growth.

___ year old female with past medical history notable for afib on warfarin and recurrent falls. Per report of primary team, she suffered a fall earlier and struck her head on a doorknob. She initially was able to get up and refused transfer to the hospital, but later (<1 hour after), she noticed swelling in her neck and difficulty breathing. She was brought to the emergency room where a CT scan of the neck was done, which showed a large prevertebral retropharyngeal hematoma with active extravasation of contrast. She was intubated in the emergency room. The patient was admitted to the MICU for monitoring and pulmonary toilet. On arrival to the MICU, the neurosurgical, ENT, and spine teams were consulted, who did not initially plan for surgical intervention. The ACS team was consulted given multiple other areas with evidence of trauma, and recommended transfer to the TSICU. Imaging of the neck showed active extravasation, venous vs arterial but the source was unclear. Per Neurosurgery/ENT, there was no clear surgical intervention to be performed. An MRI of the neck was done which demonstrated an acute fracture involving the anterior C4 vertebral body. The patient was placed in a soft collar for comfort but later discontinue because the spine was stable and there was only 1 column injury. An oral-gastric tube was placed for the initiation of tube feedings. Prior to extubation, the patient underwent a bronch which demonstrated tracheomalacia. She had pneumonia from group B strep and was started a 7 day course of antibiotics: ceftriaxone and azithromycin, which was changed to ancef when culture date was obtained. The patient was successfully weaned and extubated on ___. To provide nutrition after removal of the oral gastric tube, the patient was evaluated by Speech and Swallow and underwent a Video swallow. She was transitioned to a soft diet. Because of the patient's underlying cardiac history, she underwent an echocardiogram which showed an EF 50-55%, and 2+ MR. ___ patient was transferred to the surgical floor on ___. Her hematocrit remained stable. On ___, she reported increased neck and posterior head pain. The Neurosurgery service was re-consulted and recommended a non-contrast head cat scan which showed severe chronic small vessel ischemic changes with no acute process. The patient was given pain medication and warm compresses and her neck pain decreased in intensity. In preparation for discharge, she was evaluated by physical therapy and recommendations made for discharge to a rehabilitation facility. The patient was discharged on HD # 11. Her vital signs were stable and she was afebrile. She was voiding without difficulty and had return of bowel function. Her appetite continued to be decreased and she was provided with nutritional supplements. She had no difficulty with swallowing. Her hematocrit and white blood cell count stabilized. Appointments for ___ were made in the acute care clinic. Discharge instructions were reviewed and questions answered. Her anticoagulation was held during this admission, and should not be continued until discussion with her PCP at ___.

The foreign material stains strongly for iron and could represent part of an iron pill. A rare yeast form is seen in the exudate on GMS and PAS stain. Final Report INDICATION: Patient with history of C. diff. colitis and abdominal pain and bloody bowel movements. COMPARISONS: ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT-acquired images through the abdomen and pelvis was obtained. Coronally and sagittally reformatted images are provided. 30 cc of IV contrast was administered when primary team requested mesenteric CTA. Therefore, no true pre-contrast sequence is available. Arterial and venous phases were subsequently obtained. FINDINGS: CT OF THE ABDOMEN: Imaged lung bases are clear. The liver demonstrates homogeneous enhancement. There is a 12 mm hyperenhancing lesion in segment VII/VIII (5b:80), most likely flash-filling hemangioma, unchanged since ___ exam. There is no evidence of intrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. Biliary stent is unchanged in position. There is expected pneumobilia predominantly in the left hepatic lobe. The portal vein is patent. The gallbladder is surgically absent. There is a small hiatal hernia. The spleen is normal in size. The pancreas enhances homogeneously without main pancreatic ductal dilatation. Focal fatty deposition within the pancreatic head is unchanged (5b:215). There is a 1.7 x 1.6 cm hypodensity in the uncinate process of the pancreas, which is more conspicuous since priors. The adrenal glands are unremarkable. The kidneys enhance and excrete contrast symmetrically without hydronephrosis or suspicious renal masses. Subcentimeter renal hypodensities are too small to characterize and are most likely cysts. There is small amount of ascites, increased since prior study. There is no mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Aorta demonstrates extensive calcified atherosclerotic disease with multiple infrarenal fusiform aneurysms, the largest measuring 3.3 cm, unchanged (604b:59). Aneurysmal changes extend to the bilateral iliac vessels, the left measuring 1.6 and the right measuring 2.2 cm. The right external iliac artery measures 11 mm, and appears ectatic. There is moderate narrowing at the origin of the celiac axis. The SMA is patent. There is marked bowel wall edema involving nearly entire colon, which most likely relates to patient's known Clostridium difficile infection. There are multiple colonic diverticula. There are focal areas of hyperintensity within the descending and sigmoid colon (5b:244, 288), which appear hyperdense on the arterial phase. However, no significant progression of hypodensities is seen within the bowel. The evaluation is limited given lack of pre-contrast sequence. CT OF THE PELVIS: A foley catheter is within the bladder. Small amount of air within the bladder likely relates to Foley placement. The rectum, prostate gland and seminal vesicles are unremarkable. There is small amount of free fluid. There is no free air. No pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No suspicious lytic or sclerotic bony lesion. Prior right eigth rib fracture is noted. IMPRESSION: 1. Limited evaluation due to lack of pre-contrast sequence. Focal areas of hyperdensity within the descending and sigmoid colon without definite progression, are felt to be hight density intraluminal contents unlikely to represent GI bleed; however, this cannot be definitely excluded due to limitation of the study. 2. Diffuse colonic edema, compatible with patient's known history of Clostridium difficile infection. 3. Small amount of ascites and anasarca, increased since prior. 4. Biliary drain is in place with expected pneumobilia. 5. A 12 mm arterial enhancing hepatic lesion, likely flash-filling hemangioma, unchanged since ___ exam. 6. A 17 x 15 mm hypodensity in the uncinate process of the pancreas, more conspicuous since prior studies, which can be further assessed with MRCP, if patient's pacemaker is MR compatible. Otherwise, consider EUS. 7. Extensive calcified atherosclerotic disease of the aorta with associated aneurysmal changes, stable. 8. Small hiatal hernia.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Patient with history of C. diff. colitis and abdominal pain and bloody bowel movements. COMPARISONS: ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT-acquired images through the abdomen and pelvis was obtained. Coronally and sagittally reformatted images are provided. 30 cc of IV contrast was administered when primary team requested mesenteric CTA. Therefore, no true pre-contrast sequence is available. Arterial and venous phases were subsequently obtained. FINDINGS: CT OF THE ABDOMEN: Imaged lung bases are clear. The liver demonstrates homogeneous enhancement. There is a 12 mm hyperenhancing lesion in segment VII/VIII (5b:80), most likely flash-filling hemangioma, unchanged since ___ exam. There is no evidence of intrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. Biliary stent is unchanged in position. There is expected pneumobilia predominantly in the left hepatic lobe. The portal vein is patent. The gallbladder is surgically absent. There is a small hiatal hernia. The spleen is normal in size. The pancreas enhances homogeneously without main pancreatic ductal dilatation. Focal fatty deposition within the pancreatic head is unchanged (5b:215). There is a 1.7 x 1.6 cm hypodensity in the uncinate process of the pancreas, which is more conspicuous since priors. The adrenal glands are unremarkable. The kidneys enhance and excrete contrast symmetrically without hydronephrosis or suspicious renal masses. Subcentimeter renal hypodensities are too small to characterize and are most likely cysts. There is small amount of ascites, increased since prior study. There is no mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Aorta demonstrates extensive calcified atherosclerotic disease with multiple infrarenal fusiform aneurysms, the largest measuring 3.3 cm, unchanged (604b:59). Aneurysmal changes extend to the bilateral iliac vessels, the left measuring 1.6 and the right measuring 2.2 cm. The right external iliac artery measures 11 mm, and appears ectatic. There is moderate narrowing at the origin of the celiac axis. The SMA is patent. There is marked bowel wall edema involving nearly entire colon, which most likely relates to patient's known Clostridium difficile infection. There are multiple colonic diverticula. There are focal areas of hyperintensity within the descending and sigmoid colon (5b:244, 288), which appear hyperdense on the arterial phase. However, no significant progression of hypodensities is seen within the bowel. The evaluation is limited given lack of pre-contrast sequence. CT OF THE PELVIS: A foley catheter is within the bladder. Small amount of air within the bladder likely relates to Foley placement. The rectum, prostate gland and seminal vesicles are unremarkable. There is small amount of free fluid. There is no free air. No pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No suspicious lytic or sclerotic bony lesion. Prior right eigth rib fracture is noted. IMPRESSION: 1. Limited evaluation due to lack of pre-contrast sequence. Focal areas of hyperdensity within the descending and sigmoid colon without definite progression, are felt to be hight density intraluminal contents unlikely to represent GI bleed; however, this cannot be definitely excluded due to limitation of the study. 2. Diffuse colonic edema, compatible with patient's known history of Clostridium difficile infection. 3. Small amount of ascites and anasarca, increased since prior. 4. Biliary drain is in place with expected pneumobilia. 5. A 12 mm arterial enhancing hepatic lesion, likely flash-filling hemangioma, unchanged since ___ exam. 6. A 17 x 15 mm hypodensity in the uncinate process of the pancreas, more conspicuous since prior studies, which can be further assessed with MRCP, if patient's pacemaker is MR compatible.

___ gentleman DM2, CAD s/p CABG, ischemic cardiomyopathy with LVEF 20%, atrial fibrillation on Coumadin, and a recent history of pancreatitis, cholecystitis, and c. diff colitis presents with BRBPR and UTI and admitted initially to the MICU due to transient hypotension while in the ED. # BRBPR/GI bleeding - Pt. presented with 2 day history of large bloody bowel movements. Rectal exam revealed maroon stools. Despite bloody bowel movements, H/H relatively stable on admission at 9.6/29.8 from 10.6/32.1 one month prior. Pt. responded appropriately to 1U PRBC in the ED. Pt. had one episode of hypotension that resolved with transfusion and IVF. No evidence of source on CT ab/pelvis, though limited by lack of PO contrast. EGD without clear source of bleed in ___. Colonoscopy ___ did show hemorrhoids as well as sigmoid diverticuli. Pt's INR was reversed in the ED with vitamin K and FFP. Pt. was seen by GI who felt that bleed most likely diverticular vs ischemic colitis. Pt. remained hemodynamically stable without further drop in H/H and so was transferred to the floor on hospital day 2 He got one additional unit of RBC and hemoglobin prior to discharge was 9.6. #Pancreas lesion: not consistent with solid mass on endoscopic ultrasound. Underwent pancreas biopsy that did not show malignancy. He will have f/u with Dr. ___ adv endoscopy team for biliary stent removal and can discuss future imaging of abd at that time. CA ___ tumor marker normal level. - ERCP in 6 weeks - CT pancreas protocol in 4 weeks, follow up with Dr. ___ ___ # Hypotension: Pt. transiently hypotensive to 86/40 while undergoing CT scan in the emergency department. Hypotension resolved with administration of IVF and blood transfusion. He never required pressors. Given blood loss and bacteremia, hypotension was likely related to combination of hypovolemia and possibly sepsis. Pt. had no further episodes of hypotension. # E. coli bacteremia and UTI - Per nursing home report, culture from the day prior to admission was growing E. coli, though pt. had not yet been initiated on antibiotics. UA grossly positive on arrival to ___. Pt. initiated on ceftriaxone. Blood and urine cultures, however, grew E. coli resistant to ceftriaxone and so pt. transitioned to meropenem. He received 9 day of antibiotics from first day of negative blood culture on ___ to end on ___. PICC line placed in mid line position to be removed prior to discharge. # C. difficile colitis: Per reports, pt. has history of recurrent C. diff. Pt. admitted on PO vancomycin (DAY ___ END ___. However, consider extending course given recent treatment with Meropenem for UTI # Hyponatremia: Pt. hyponatremic on admission with Na 126. After IVF and blood transfusion, sodium improved to 130. # DM2: At home, pt. is not on insulin, though he is covered by low dose sliding scale at rehab. Pt. was continued on insulin sliding scale during this admission. # Cardiac disease: Pt. with atrial fibrillation (CHADS2 of 4; on Coumadin), CAD, and CHF (EF 20%). Pt's INR was reversed on admission due to active GI bleed with 10 IV vitamin K and FFP. His home torsemide was held in setting of hypotension and then resumed at lower dose. Coumadin resumed prior to discharge. He was continued on home aspirin, digoxin, metoprolol, and pravastatin. - Torsemide may require uptitration # Gout: Continued home prednisone and allopurinol. # BPH: Continued home finasteride. # Transitional issues: - Contact: ___ (wife) ___ - Code: Full

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK Q16 CT NECK INDICATION: History: ___ with subarachnoid hemorrhage, aneurysm clipping. Question of worsening hydrocephalus. 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 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: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 14.0 s, 14.0 cm; CTDIvol = 50.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 702.4 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 3.0 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 32.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 16.3 mGy-cm. 3) Spiral Acquisition 4.3 s, 33.5 cm; CTDIvol = 30.8 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,033.0 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 1,752 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT head done ___ Cerebral angiogram done ___ CTA done ___. FINDINGS: CT HEAD: Surgical clips and embolization coils in the area of the right suprasellar cistern results in a large amount of beam hardening artifact making evaluation of this area difficult. Hemorrhage is noted in the left lateral ventricle near the foramina ___ as well as in the third and fourth ventricles, similar to the earlier same-day CT. Subarachnoid hemorrhage in the suprasellar cistern, anterior interhemispheric fissure, left sylvian fissure, and left-sided sulci is stable compared to the earlier same-day CT. Mild hydrocephalus is stable compared to the earlier same-day CT but new compared to ___. Right frontotemporal extra-axial collection measuring 3 mm in diameter and postsurgical right frontotemporal craniotomy changes appear similar compared to most recent CT. There is mild mucosal thickening in the ethmoid air cells. CTA HEAD AND NECK: Hyperdense embolization coil and surgical clip is noted in the region of the right posterior communicating artery and M1 segment of the right middle cerebral artery which results in a large amount of beam hardening artifact, making the previously treated aneurysm arising from the communicating segment of the right ICA difficult to re-evaluate. The 2 mm medially projecting aneurysm measured rising from the clinoid segment of the left ICA appear similar compared to prior, image 3:198. Within the limitations of the study there is no acute arterial occlusion. No ICA stenosis by NASCET criteria. Mild calcific atherosclerotic changes of the carotid siphons bilateral. The vertebral arteries are patent without evidence for flow-limiting stenosis. OTHER: The visualized portion of the lungs are clear. 7 mm hypodense nodule in the left lobe of thyroid does not meet size criteria for further evaluation by ultrasound according to the ACR guidelines. There is no lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. IMPRESSION: -Intraventricular and subarachnoid hemorrhage are stable compared to the earlier same-day noncontrast head CT. -Mild hydrocephalus, stable compared to the earlier same-day CT, but new compared to ___. -Revaluation of the previously treated right supraclinoid ICA aneurysm is limited by streak artifact from surgical clips and endovascular coils. Please refer to the subsequent cerebral angiography results for further detail. -Stable 2 mm left ICA clinoid segment aneurysm. NOTIFICATION: According to notes on OMR dated ___ at 17:22 the neurosurgery team was aware of the subarachnoid and intraventricular hemorrhage. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Right common carotid artery angiogram. Left common carotid artery angiogram. Left vertebral artery angiogram. Right common femoral artery angiogram. INDICATION: ___ year old woman with SAH/IVH, hydrocephalus and known PCOMM aneurysm s/p coiling ___, also with Left para ophthalmic artery aneurysm (unsecure)// diagnostic with possible intervention ANESTHESIA: General endotracheal anesthesia was maintained by separate anesthesia provider throughout the entirety of the case. The anesthesia provider also monitored the patient's hemodynamic and respiratory parameters. TECHNIQUE: Patient was brought into the angio suite, ID was confirmed via wrist band.The patient was placed supine on fluoroscopy table and bilateral groins were prepped and draped in the usual sterile manner. Time-out procedure was performed per institutional guidelines. The location of the right mid femoral head was located using anatomic and radiographic landmarks. 10 +10 cc of subcutaneous lidocaine was infused into the tissue. Micropuncture kit was used to gain access to the right femoral artery, serial dilation was undertaken until a long 6 ___ groin sheath connected to a continuous heparinized saline flush could be inserted. ___ catheter was connected to the power injector and also to a continuous heparinized saline flush. This was advanced over the 0.038 glidewire brought up the aorta used to select the right common carotid artery. AP, oblique and lateral views of the anterior cerebral circulation were obtained. Subsequently, 3D rotational images were performed requiring post processing on an independent workstation under concurrent physician supervision and used in the interpretation and reporting of the procedure. Catheter was then pulled back in the aorta and used to select the left common carotid artery. AP, oblique and lateral views of the anterior cerebral circulation were obtained. The catheter was then pulled back in the aorta and the left subclavian artery was selected. AP and lateral road map imaging was undertaken. Next, the left vertebral artery was selected. AP and lateral views were taken from this vessel for the posterior cerebral circulation. All the Ace runs were medically necessary for management planning. 5000 units of heparin were given, and in collaboration with our colleagues in anesthesia subsequent doses were given to target ACT ___. Also 15 mg of IV Integrilin was given. An OG tube was inserted in verified via chest x-ray and used to gave 300 mg of aspirin and 180 mg of Birlinta. Diagnostic catheter was exchanged to 6 ___ Benchmark Delivery Catheter which was mounted over an angled exchange length wire slowly and carefully with continuous fluoro. Then it was positioned at a satisfactory position in the right internal carotid artery, new road maps were taken. Subsequently, Phenom micro catheter was advanced on a synchro 2 wire until it was parked in a satisfactory position in the middle cerebral artery (M1/M2 junction) carefully and slowly under direct fluoro. A new angio run was done at this point. Measurements were obtained for the pipeline, the synchro 2 wire was pulled out and the pipeline embolization device was advanced until the tip was visualized at the M1 segment of the MCA, the Phenom and the device were then slowly Re treated into the internal carotid artery an slow and careful deployment of the pipeline device was done across the pseudoaneurysm, once we reached the satisfactory apposition against the wall of the artery the pipeline device was completely deployed. A new angio run was done at this point confirming patency of the artery. The microcatheter was retrieved. New magnified and de-magnified angio runs were taken which confirmed the patency of the artery and the excellent positioning of the pipeline device and significant reduction of flow into the pseudoaneurysm. The catheter was then pulled back in the aorta fully removed from the body. A common femoral arteriogram was performed prior to use of a closure device, subsequently 6 ___ Angio-Seal was put in. At the conclusion of the procedure, there is no evidence of thromboembolic complication and the patient was at his neurologic baseline. COMPARISON: ___ PROCEDURE: Diagnostic cerebral angiogram +pipeline embolization of a right internal carotid artery communicating segment pseudoaneurysm. FINDINGS: Right common carotid artery: Carotid bifurcations well-visualized. There is no significant atherosclerosis or carotid stenosis.
