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.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you here at ___ ___. You were admitted to our hospital after undergoing repair of your ventral hernia. You have recovered from surgery and are now ready to be discharged to home with services. Please follow the recommendations below to ensure a speedy and uneventful recovery. ACTIVITY: - Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. - You may climb stairs. - You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. - Don't lift more than 10 lbs for 6 weeks. (This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap. - You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. - Heavy exercise may be started after 6 weeks, but use common sense and go slowly at first. - You may resume sexual activity unless your doctor has told you otherwise. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: - You may feel weak or "washed out" for 6 weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. - You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. - You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. - You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. - All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: - Your incision may be slightly red around the edges. This is normal. - If you have steri strips, do not remove them for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that are on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). - You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. - It is normal to feel a firm ridge along the incision. This will go away. - Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. - Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. - You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. - You may shower, but do not bathe you are seen in clinic for follow-up. YOUR BOWELS: - Constipation is a common side effect of medicine such as Percocet or codeine. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. - If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. - After some operations, diarrhea can occur. If you get diarrhea, don't take anti-diarrhea medicines. Drink plenty of fluitds and see if it goes away. If it does not go away, or is severe and you feel ill, please call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: - It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". - Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. -You will receive a prescription from your surgeon for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directied. - Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. - Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. - Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. - If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. - Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the folloiwng, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: - Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently. - If you have any questions about what medicine to take or not to take, please call your surgeon.

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. Portable TTE (Complete) Done ___ at 12:00:00 ___ FINAL IMPRESSION: Borderline LV systolic function secondary to septal dyssynchrony. Bi-leaflet MVP with moderate mitral regurgitation. Mild pulmonary hypertension. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of ___ 4:50 AM IMPRESSION: Compared to chest radiographs since ___, most recently ___. Lungs clear. Moderate cardiomegaly is chronic. No pulmonary edema or pleural effusion. MR CERVICAL SPINE W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 9:19 ___ IMPRESSION: 1. Acute fracture involving the anterior C4 vertebral body with pre-vertebral soft tissue edema and probable injury to the anterior longitudinal ligament as well the as the inter-spinous ligament. 2. Edema within the C6-C7 intervertebral disc space with probable osseous edema of the superior C7 vertebral body. 3. Re-demonstration of retropharyngeal hematoma. 4. Retrolisthesis of C4 on C5 and anterolisthesis of C2 on C3. 5. Multilevel degenerative changes as detailed above, with moderate spinal canal stenosis at C4-C5 through C6-C7 levels with spinal cord remodeling, without definite cord edema. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of ___ 4:54 AM IMPRESSION: In comparison with the study ___, the monitoring support devices are essentially unchanged. Cardiac silhouette remains mildly enlarged without evidence of vascular congestion, pleural effusion, or acute focal pneumonia. CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT Study Date of ___ 10:53 ___ IMPRESSION: Compared to chest radiographs since ___, most recently ___ through ___ at 05:33. Combination of small to moderate pleural effusions and moderate bibasilar atelectasis has increased since earlier in the day. Moderate cardiomegaly is chronic. There is also very mild ___ edema. Indwelling cardiopulmonary support devices in standard placements. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of ___ 5:31 AM IMPRESSION: Lines and tubes are in standard position. Bibasilar opacities have markedly improved. Bilateral effusions have improved. Cardiomegaly, tortuous aorta and prominent hila bilaterally are stable. There is no evident pneumothorax. Sternal wires are intact. VIDEO OROPHARYNGEAL SWALLOW Study Date of ___ 11:37 AM IMPRESSION: No aspiration. Penetration with thin and nectar consistencies. Please refer to the speech and swallow division note in OMR for full details, assessment, and recommendations. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 5:41 ___ IMPRESSION: 1.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ s/p fall COMPARISON: Same-day neck CTA and chest radiograph from ___ FINDINGS: AP portable upright view of the chest. 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. 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. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Chest CT INDICATION: ___ year old woman with retropharyngeal hematoma. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images were obtained through the chest without intravenous contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformats were obtained. COMPARISON: Same day neck CTA FINDINGS: HEART AND VASCULATURE: The there is severe cardiomegaly.

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.

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.

It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___ ___. During your hospitalization, you had surgery to remove unhealthy tissue on your lower extremity. You tolerated the procedure well and are now ready to be discharged from the hospital. Please follow the recommendations below to ensure a speedy and uneventful recovery. LOWER TRANSMETATARSAL AMPUTATION DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS ACTIVITY •You should keep your amputation site elevated and straight whenever possible. This will prevent swelling of the stump and maintain flexibility in your joint. •It is very important that you put no weight or pressure on your stump with activity or at rest to allow the wound to heal properly. •You may use the opposite foot for transfers and pivots, if applicable. It will take time to learn to use a walker and learn to transfer into and out of a wheelchair. MEDICATION •Before you leave the hospital, you will be given a list of all the medicine you should take at home. If a medication that you normally take is not on the list or a medication that you do not take is on the list please discuss it with the team! •You will likely be prescribed narcotic pain medication on discharge which can be very constipating. If you take narcotics, please also take a stool softener such as Colace. If constipation becomes a problem, your pharmacist can suggest an additional over the counter laxative. •You should take Tylenol ___ every 6 hours, as needed for pain. If this is not enough, take your prescription narcotic pain medication. You should require less pain medication each day. Do not take more than a daily total of 3000mg of Tylenol. Tylenol is used as an ingredient in some other over-the-counter and prescription medications. Be aware of how much Tylenol you are taking in a day. BATHING/SHOWERING: •You may shower when you feel strong enough but no tub baths or pools until you have permission from your surgeon and the incision is fully healed. •After your shower, gently dry the incision well. Do not rub the area. WOUND CARE: •Please keep the wound clean and dry. It is very important that there is no pressure on the stump. If there is no drainage, you may leave the incision open to air. •Your staples/sutures will remain in for at least 4 weeks. At your followup appointment, we will see if the incision has healed enough to remove the staples. •Before you can be fitted for prosthesis (a man-made limb to replace the limb that was removed) your incision needs to be fully healed. CALL THE OFFICE FOR: ___ •Opening, bleeding or drainage or odor from your stump incision •Redness, swelling or warmth in your stump. •Fever greater than 101 degrees, chills, or worsening incisional/stump pain NO OTHER PROVIDER, EXCEPT YOUR VASCULAR SURGEON, SHOULD DETERMINE IF YOUR STAPLES ARE READY TO BE REMOVED FROM YOUR SURGICAL SITE. IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, THE PROVIDER SHOULD CALL THE VASCULAR SURGERY OFFICE AT ___ TO DISCUSS. THE STAPLES/SUTURES WILL BE REMOVED IN THE OFFICE AT YOUR FOLLOWUP APPOINTMENT WHEN IT IS DETERMINED BY THE VASCULAR SURGEON THAT THE WOUND HAS SUFFICIENTLY HEALED.

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. Right internal carotid artery: The distal right ICA, proximal and distal MCA and ACA branches are well-visualized.

ETT ___: INTERPRETATION: ___ yo woman with HL, HTN and DM, s/p IMI and CABG in ___ followed by PCI of SVG-OM that same year was referred to evaluate an atypical chest discomfort. The patient completed 9.25 minutes of a modified ___ protocol representing an average exercise tolerance; ~ ___ METS. The exercise test was stopped due to fatigue. The patient denied any chest, back, neck or arm discomforts during the procedure. At peak exercise, 0.5-1 mm upsloping ST segment depressions were noted inferolaterally. Immediately post-exercise, a horizontal ST morphology was noted in these same leads. The ST segment changes resolved with rest and returned to standing baseline by 4 minutes post-exercise. The rhythm was sinus with rare isolated APBs. The blood pressure increased with exercise, however the response was blunted. In the presence of beta blocker therapy, the peak exercise heart rate was somewhat blunted. CATH ___: Coronary Anatomy Dominance: Right LMCA: The LMCA was calcified with mild plaquing proximally. LAD: The proximal and mid LAD were heavily calcified. The proximal LAD had diffuse mild plaquing to 40% mid vessel involving the origin of D1 mildly. The mid LAD had a 75% stenosis with competitive flow seen distally. LCX: The proximal CX was calcified. The proximal CX tapered to 40%. A small long (<2 mm in diameter) OM1 had a proximal 70% stenosis. The AV groove CX was occluded mid vessel. RCA: The RCA was heavily calcified. There was a proximal 70% stenosis and a mid vessel chronic total occlusion. There was faint filling of the mid-distal RCA via vasa and other right-to-right collaterals. SVG-RPDA: The SVG had a corkscrew turn near ostially. The SVG had mild plaquing and grafted onto a large RPDA with retrograde perfusion of the large distal RCA system into multiple RPLs. There was NO retrograde perfusion of the mid RCA. SVG-LPL: The SVG had mild plaquing, especially ostially. The grafted LPL (also <2 mm in diameter) had serial 70% and 75% stenoses. There was retrograde perfusion down the distal AV groove CX. LIMA-LAD: The LIMA-LAD was patent onto the mid LAD with competitive flow seen retrogradely in the mid LAD. The apical LAD had diffuse plaquing. Impressions: 1. Native three vessel coronary artery disease with chronic total occlusion of the CX and RCA, unrevascularized native OM1 disease and LPL disease downstream of the SVG (both of these in vessels <2 mm in diameter and thus too small for PCI). 2. Systemic systolic arterial hypertension. 3. Moderate-severe left ventricular diastolic heart failure. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

For the past ___ years or so, patient has had problems with gait, in particular increased slowness, freezing and shuffling (especially when trying to get around a small or cluttered area). She uses a cane or walker at baseline. Has also had some urinary incontinence and anxiety. She is followed by Dr. ___ as an outpatient for this, who diagnosed her with vascular Parkinsonism (head CT with generalized atrophy and small vessel disease) and a multifactorial gait disorder with frontal and parkinsonian components. She is being treated with Levodopa-Carbidopa for the gait symptoms which has helped slightly but not significantly. Has had a few falls over the past couple of years which seem to be related to attentional difficulties, often happening in the setting of having additional thoughts or external cues (e.g. fell recently when fire alarm went off in her building). Most recent clinic note from ___ documents ongoing gait freezing and slowed movements as well as pallilalia (stuttering/halting speech). Over the past 3 days, her slowness and gait problems acutely worsened. She has felt unable to get out of bed or even move much due to marked slowness and stiffness. When she tried to walk to the bathroom on ___ night, she noticed that she was freezing severely, perhaps more in the left leg which felt like it was heavy and dragging. It took her a long time to get to the bathroom. At baseline she ambulates with a walker, but has been unable to do so even with walker and assistance from visiting nurse ___ ___ 7 days per week). In this setting she has had increased incontinence due to trouble getting out of bed. Speech has also seemed slower and softer than usual.

Chief Complaint: Dysphagia, odynophagia Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Rigid bronchoscopy and tracheal stent removal ___ History of Present Illness: As per admitting MD ___ is a ___ yo ___ man with high grade neuroendocrine mediastinal carcinoma on paclitaxel and RT to mediastinum, c/b malignant hemoptysis s/p tracheal stent ___, DVT on Xarelto, who presents with 2 days of worsening odynophagia and dysphagia. Mr ___ was recently admitted ___ with small volume hemoptysis. Bronchoscopy ___ showed multiple tracheal masses and scant blood. He received 16 x 60 mm covered stent to prevent further intrinsic and extrinsic malignant compression. CT that admission demonstrated rapid progression of disease; so he was urgently started on paclitaxel and RT to mediastinum ___. Of note, day prior to discharge, Mr ___ reported dysphagia (solids > liquids). He developed subjective fevers and tachycardia. A CT neck/chest was done which did not demonstrate any acute changes. His symptoms improved the next day and he was discharged with instructions to seek medical care if recurrent. Since discharge, Mr ___ says he has primarily had soup because of ongoing mild dysphagia. However, 2 days prior to admission, he noticed his dysphagia and odynophagia became worse and he was not even able to swallow his spit. He feels his inability to swallow was due to both pain and a sensation that the liquids didn't seem to pass through his throat. He states he was able to intermittently manage solids. He was able to take small pills, although he sometimes had to chew on larger pills. He was able to eat an apple in the ED prior to admission. He denies any pain in the chest with swallowing; just pain in the throat. He denies regurgitation. He does not have the sensation of food getting stuck in his chest. No heartburn. He denies shortness of breath, new chest pain (has ongoing L sided cancer associated pain), lightheadedness, dizziness, fevers, chills, hemoptysis, N/V/abdominal pain. In ED: T 99.2 | 95 | 108/76 | 98% RA. A CT chest was done which did not demonstrate any acute changes. IP was consulted and noted mild migration of tracheal stent that may warrant repeat bronchoscopy but was unlikely to be the source of his symptoms. Prior to admission, he received: ___ 13:19 NEB Acetylcysteine 20% 3 mL ___ 13:19 IV Morphine Sulfate 2 mg Past Medical History: As per admitting MD ___ pancreatitis ___ gall stones s/p ERCP Alcohol use disorder (12 beers a day; quit in ___ Tobacco use disorder ___ years; quit ___ Hyperglycemia Hemorrhoids S/p R knee meniscus repair Asthma in childhood RUE DVT (diagnosed ___, LUE DVT High-Grade NE Tumor ONCOLOGIC HISTORY ___ At Age ___, he presented to the ED with 3 days of constant right sided chest pain, had a CTA that found a large mediastinal mass with multiple pulmonary nodules compatible with metastasis. Retrospectively, he noticed a hoarse voice and some throat discomfort for last six months. In the previous month, he also reported progressive dysphagia to solids initially, but lately also to liquids and with some associated odynophagia. He was seen by ENT and 2 laryngoscopies were negative for masses. Patient endorses minimally nonproductive cough, chills with night sweats almost nightly for the last few weeks. ___ CT revealed a large superior mediastinal mass that may represent a conglomerated lymph nodal mass measuring up to 6.1 cm with bilateral hilar, subcarinal and paratracheal lymphadenopathy. Left supraclavicular lymphadenopathy is also noted. Innumerable bilateral pulmonary nodules consistent with metastases. Diffuse sclerosis involving the right posterior seventh and left posterior eighth ribs may reflect osseous metastasis. No pathologic fracture. 8 mm prominent porta hepatis lymph node is nonspecific.

Radiology Report HISTORY: Right-sided neck pain, PCP once ___. TECHNIQUE: AP, lateral, and open-mouth views of the cervical spine. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: On the lateral view, C1-C7 are included. The C7/T1 interval is not well seen although grossly, anatomic alignment is likely maintained. There is a small well corticated ossific structure measuring 2-3 mm just anterior to the inferior/anterior aspect of the C5 vertebral body, which appears old. Minimal disc space narrowing is seen at C4/C5. Vertebral body heights are maintained without findings to suggest acute fracture. Atlanto axial interval is maintained. No dislocation is seen. There is no prevertebral soft tissue swelling. The visualized lung apices are grossly clear. IMPRESSION: C7/T1 interval not optimally seen, although grossly, anatomic alignment is likely maintained. If there is high clinical concern at this location, suggest swimmer's view or CT. Otherwise, mild degenerative changes without definite acute fracture or dislocation. Radiology Report CERVICAL SPINE MRI WITHOUT CONTRAST, ___ INDICATION: Right-sided neck pain, weakness of right wrist flexion. Evaluate for cord impingement. COMPARISON: Cervical spine radiographs performed earlier today. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and STIR images of the cervical spine, as well as sagittal diffusion-weighted images of the cervical spine, and axial gradient echo and T2-weighted images of the cervical spine. FINDINGS: Vertebral body heights are preserved. There is no subluxation. No concerning bone marrow signal abnormalities are seen. At C2-3, there is no significant spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing. There is mild left facet arthropathy. At C3-4, there is a broad-based disc osteophyte complex moderately narrowing the spinal canal and flattening the ventral spinal cord. Cord signal appears preserved at this level. There is moderate bilateral neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral and facet osteophytes. At C4-5, there is a large central disc herniation, larger on the right than left, which severely narrows the spinal canal and compresses the spinal cord. There is high signal in the cord at this level on T2-weighted images, compatible with edema or myelomalacia. There is mild right and moderate left neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. At C5-6, there is a central disc protrusion moderately narrowing the spinal canal and flattening the ventral spinal cord. Cord signal appears preserved. There is moderate right and severe left neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral and facet osteophytes. At C6-7, there is a small central disc protrusion which abuts the ventral spinal cord without significant cord deformation. There is mild-to-moderate spinal canal narrowing. There is mild left neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. C7-T1 level demonstrates mild left neural foraminal narrowing by uncovertebral osteophytes. Sagittal images through the T1-2 level demonstrate a possible shallow disc herniation without significant spinal canal narrowing. Cerebellar tonsils are normally positioned. The imaged portion of the posterior fossa appears unremarkable. There is no diffusion abnormality in the spinal cord. IMPRESSION: 1. At C4-5, there is a large central disc herniation, larger on the right than left, which compresses the spinal cord and severely narrows the spinal canal. Abnormal cord signal at this level may indicate edema or myelomalacia. 2. At C3-4 and C5-6, there is moderate spinal canal stenosis with deformation of the spinal cord, but no abnormal cord signal.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you while you were admitted to ___. You were admitted because of pain at your elbow and redness/bruising on your right arm. We checked your bloodwork and found you to have an elevated INR (Coumadin level) which has lead to ecchymosis or bleeding within the superficial skin layers. We evaluated your arm with ultrasound and the preliminary read confirmed that there was no hematoma or blood collection that would require further intervention. Also, we repeated your INR which was trending down. After serial examinations of your arm, we feel that the current area of redness is not expanding further. When you return home, it is important that you do not take Coumadin today. Tomorrow, you have an appointment with your PCP, ___, at 3pm for a check-up of your arm and repeat INR level. Dr. ___ will instruct you on further Coumadin dosing. Additionally, please call your cardiologist to arrange an appointment in the next ___ days.

She went to have her MRI today prior to her brain tumor clinic appointment. There she noted she had dizziness so a code was called and she was referred to the ED. SHe states her symptoms are largely stable since she last presented to the hospital. Of note, I admitted her on ___ when she presented w/ sig nausea, vertigo, difficulty projecting voice, DOE, dysphagia, found to have disease progression, and started on dex. LP was done and cytology negative for malignant cells but MRI was c/f progression. She was discharged ___ on 4 mg dex BID. Since then, she noted no change in her dizziness. Dizziness is mainly when she moves her head or eyes, but does NOT have dizziness at rest looking straight. Her nausea improved on dex. She still has dysphagia and that seems to be slightly worse. Her speech is sometimes slurred as well, not always, but "feels like my tongue is swollen," or like "i'm speaking with a swollen tongue." Her HA improved on dex but still has them intermittently, not currently. She had sig relief w/ fioricet on last admission. In the ED, she was seen by neurology service who noted a baseline neurological exam w/ exception of mild dysarthria. They recommended admission to neuro-onc for brain MRI and further workup.

Thank you for choosing ___ for your care. You were seen in the emergency room by the Acute Care/Trauma Surgery team for a fall that happened a few days before you came in. You were admitted for pain control and was monitored for alcohol withdrawal since you had an elevated blood alcohol level. After evaluation from the Trauma service and Psychiatric service, you are now able to return home for further recovery. Rib Fractures: * Your injury caused 9 - 10th rib fractures which can cause severe pain and subsequently cause you to take shallow breaths because of the pain. * You should take your pain medication as directed to stay ahead of the pain otherwise you won't be able to take deep breaths. If the pain medication is too sedating take half the dose and notify your physician. * Pneumonia is a complication of rib fractures. In order to decrease your risk you must use your incentive spirometer 4 times every hour while awake. This will help expand the small airways in your lungs and assist in coughing up secretions that pool in the lungs. * You will be more comfortable if you use a cough pillow to hold against your chest and guard your rib cage while coughing and deep breathing. * Symptomatic relief with ice packs or heating pads for short periods may ease the pain. * Narcotic pain medication can cause constipation therefore you should take a stool softener twice daily and increase your fluid and fiber intake if possible. * Do NOT smoke * If your doctor allows, non-steroidal ___ drugs are very effective in controlling pain ( ie, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, Naprosyn) but they have their own set of side effects so make sure your doctor approves. * Return to the Emergency Room right away for any acute shortness of breath, increased pain or crackling sensation around your ribs (crepitus).

Radiology Report PROCEDURE: PICC LINE REPOSITIONING. HISTORY: ___ female with painless jaundice with misplaced right PICC line. Request is to reposition. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ and Dr. ___ performed the procedure. PROCEDURE NOTE IN DETAIL: Informed verbal consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then transferred to the ___ suite and placed supine on the imaging table. A limited fluoroscopic spot film of the chest demonstrates the right-sided PICC line extending into the right internal jugular vein. The area was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A preprocedure huddle and timeout were performed as per ___ protocol. Under real-time fluoroscopic guidance, the catheter was withdrawn and the tip positioned at the origin of the SVC. Using a pre-curved 018 nitinol wire, the wire was advanced into the SVC and the catheter then tracked along the wire. The tip was positioned at the cavoatrial junction. The wire was withdrawn. Satisfactory blood aspiration and flushing was noted from both lumens. Sterile dressing was applied. The patient was then transferred to the floor in stable condition for further post-procedure monitoring. IMPRESSION: Uncomplicated repositioning of a right-sided PICC line with the tip now positioned at the cavoatrial junction. The line may be used for infusion therapy immediately. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ woman with painless jaundice, total bilirubin in the ___, cholangitis on Zosyn, needs decompression . PHYSICIANS: Dr. ___ (radiology fellow), Dr. ___ ___ (radiology attending)and Dr ___. MEDICATION: The procedure was performed under general anesthesia, please see the dedicated anesthesia note for further details. RADIATION: 21 minute 47 seconds of fluoroscopy time. CONTRAST: 50 cc Omnipaque 320. PROCEDURE: 1. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography. 2. Placement of an ___ internal-external percutaneous transhepatic biliary drain. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, informed written patient consent was obtained. The patient was brought to the angiographic suite and a preprocedure timeout was performed using three patient identifiers. The procedure was performed under general anesthesia which was induced in the angiographic suite, please see relevant documentation. The patient received 2 g of cefazolin IV prior to commencing the procedure. The skin in the right anterior abdominal wall was prepped and draped in usual sterile fashion. Using ultrasound guidance, a peripheral dilated right posterior intrahepatic bile duct was targeted with a 21G Cook needle. Positioning within the bile duct was confirmed by a small injection of contrast to opacify the dilated intrahepatic biliary tree. A nitinol wire was advanced via the Cook needle, the needle was removed and the central portion of an AccuStick system was advanced over the wire to stabilize access to the biliary tree. The nitinol wire was removed and a Glidewire was advanced via the AccuStick into the dilated bile ducts, with some difficulty we manipulated the Glidewire into the common bile duct. The wire would not pass further than the mid portion of the common bile duct, therefore we removed at AccuStick system and advanced a 5 ___ sheath advanced over the wire. We then used a 5 ___ long Kumpe catheter also over the Glidewire which advanced into the proximal common bile duct and injected a small amount of contrast. This opacified a very dilated common bile duct, cystic duct and gallbladder, but no contrast was seen to pass distally through the CBD into the duodenum. We advanced the sheath into the dilated common bile duct, and we used a combination of the Kumpe catheter and Glidewire to locate the opening of the markedly narrowed distal common bile duct. The Kumpe catheter was advanced over the Glidewire and a small injection of contrast confirmed access to the duodenum. The Glidewire was exchanged for an Amplatz wire and advanced via the Kumpe into the duodenum and jejunum. The Kumpe catheter and sheath were removed, the tract was dilated with an 8 ___ dilator. An 8 ___ percutaneous transhepatic biliary drain was advanced over the Amplatz wire down to the level of the duodenum. A pigtail was formed and the catheter was confirmed to be in adequate position by injection of small amount of contrast. There were no immediate post-procedure complications, and the patient was returned to the ___ ICU. FINDINGS: 1. Marked intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation down to the level of the mid to distal common bile duct with a tight stenosis at that level. 2. Predominant opacification of the right-sided intrahepatic ducts; however, some contrast and at least one guidewire was seen to enter the left-sided ducts which are presumed to be in free communication. 3. Succesful traversal of the distal CBD obstruction with placement of an ___ Internal / External biliary drain. 4. Of note NG tube noted with its distal tip in the stomach. IMPRESSION: 1. Marked intra and extrahepatic biliary dilatation to the level of the distal CBD. 2.Successful placement of an 8 ___ percutaneous transhepatic biliary drain throught the obstruction which has been left on free drainage. Radiology Report INDICATION: Painless jaundice, confirm NG tube placement. COMPARISON: ___. TECHNIQUE: Single AP portable upright chest. FINDINGS: A nasogastric tube courses below the diaphragm, with tip below the borders of the radiograph, but likely located within the distal stomach. A right-sided PICC has been repositioned and now terminates in lower SVC. Mild left basilar atelectasis is persistent but slightly improved. Otherwise, no significant interval change. IMPRESSION: Nasogastric tube below the diaphragm, with tip likely located in distal stomach. Right-sided PICC with tip in lower SVC after repositioning. Left basilar atelectasis. Radiology Report HISTORY: Right IJ line placement. CHEST, SINGLE PORTABLE VIEW. Right IJ central line tip overlies the proximal/mid SVC and a right subclavian PICC line tip overlies the SVC/RA junction. NG tube tip extends beneath the diaphragm and overlies the stomach. No pneumothorax detected. Upper zone re-distribution, without overt CHF. Patchy retrocardiac opacity, similar or slightly improved compared with ___. No pneumothorax detected. Biapical pleural thickening again noted. Calcified left hilar lymph nodes again noted. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ female status post ex lap Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy and gastrojejunostomy, now with recent removal of right IJ on the same side as the PICC line. COMPARISON: Comparison is made with chest radiograph from ___ and ___. FINDINGS: Two frontal images of the chest demonstrate a right PICC line terminates in the low SVC, unchanged from previous imaging. There is no pneumothorax or other complications. Interval removal of NG tube is also noted. There is a left pleural effusion and opacity in the left lower lobe associated with some volume loss. A catheter is seen overlying the liver. Calcified left hilar lymph nodes are again noted. Otherwise, the lungs appear clear and well expanded. Osseous structures are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: Right PICC line in unchanged position. No pneumothorax or other complications. Small left pleural effusion. Radiology Report CT CHEST WITH CONTRAST COMPARISON: None. Correlation is made with CTA abdomen of ___.

Advanced degenerative changes of the right and moderate degenerative changes of the left acromioclavicular joint. Degenerative arthrosis of both humeral heads. There is a calcific structure along the greater tuberosity of the left humerus which may relate to calcific tendinosis. No acute fracture or destructive osseous process. IMPRESSION: 1. Indeterminate right middle lobe and lower lobe pulmonary nodules. In a patient with history of prior malignancy, unenhanced CT chest is recommended in three months to monitor growth pattern and malignant potential. 2. No intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. 3. Pneumobilia, abdominal ascites and pericolonic fluid involving the splenic flexure are likely related to recent surgery. Hypoattenuation in gallbladder fossa with intrinsic air is compatible with Surgicel packing, however an abscess would have a similar appearance and cannot be excluded. 4. Scattered colonic diverticulosis.

Previously seen focus of left frontal cortical hyperdensity is no longer present on the current examination. Apparent foci of hyperdensity now project over different portions of the frontal cortex bilaterally, almost certainly artifactual. The artifacts are in part related to the protective goggles over the patient's eyes. If additional imaging is desired, the patient should be rescanned with his neck flexed, so that the goggles would not project over the frontal lobes. - CXR ___: FINDINGS AND IMPRESSION: Lung volumes are low. As compared to the prior examination, previously seen bibasilar opacities are improved and right midlung pneumonia has cleared. There is mild bibasilar atelectasis, but no consolidation to suggest pneumonia. Moderate cardiomegaly, increased since ___, generalized systemic and pulmonary overcirculation and is incipient pulmonary edema indicate biventricular cardiac decompensation. I discussed these findings by telephone with Dr ___ in the ___ at 8:30AM. - CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST ___: IMPRESSION: Motion-limited study. Apparent hyperdensity projecting over the left anterior frontal cortex, subjacent to bone, is probably artifactual. However, given history of fall and anticoagulation, a small hemorrhage cannot be excluded. Close clinical follow-up and short-interval follow-up imaging should be considered.

Initial head CT with question of possible subarachnoid hemorrhage. TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT scan of the head was obtained without the administration of contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations were prepared. COMPARISON: Correlation with CT dated ___ obtained approximately 5.5 hours prior. Review of CT head examination dated ___. FINDINGS: The study is mildly limited by artifacts, less so than the prior study performed approximately 5.5 hours earlier. The location of the previously described hyperdensity appears normal on the current CT examination. Apparent hyperdensity now projects over the left anteromedial frontal cortex (___), in a different location than the questionable finding on the prior CT. There are bilateral apparent areas of hyperdensity along the inferomedial frontal cortex bilaterally (102A:36-37). These are almost certainly artifactual. No subdural or epidural collection is seen. Prominence of the ventricles and sulci is consistent with mild cerebral atrophy, unchanged. No concerning osseous lesion or fracture is identified. There is minimal mucosal thickening of the left maxillary sinus and bilateral anterior ethmoid air cells. IMPRESSION: Mildly artifact-limited study. Previously seen focus of left frontal cortical hyperdensity is no longer present on the current examination. Apparent foci of hyperdensity now project over different portions of the frontal cortex bilaterally, almost certainly artifactual. The artifacts are in part related to the protective goggles over the patient's eyes.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___ ___. You were admitted after you had a fall, and were vomiting blood. While you were hospitalized, you underwent two head CT scans, both of which did not demonstrate evidence of acute bleed after your falls. Given your history of vomiting blood, you were initially admitted to the ICU. Here you were started on a new medication, called pantoprazole, to treat your GI bleed. You were monitored for evidence of bleeding, which you did not have. You improved, and you were transferred to the normal medicine floor. You undewent an EGD, where the GI doctors used ___ to look into your esophagus, stomach, and first part of your small intestine. During this procedure, it was discoverd that you have erosive gastritis, which is likley the cause of the blood in your vomit. Additionally, you were found to have a large amount of food in your stomach. The GI doctors who did this procedure recommend that you have a repeat EGD in 8 weeks to evaluate for healing, as well as an outpatient gastric emptyng study to evaluate the cause of the food retention in your stomach. Please note that the following changes were made to your medications: 1. Please start taking pantoprazole 40 mg by mouth twice a day Please discuss your medications with your PCP and psychiatrist. It is possible your medications are contributing to your unsteadiness, and you may benefit from having your medications adjusted.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PA AND LAT) INDICATION: History: ___ with lethargy// ?pneumonia COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: PA and lateral views of the chest provided. There is an ill-defined opacity in the right lower lobe. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is normal. Imaged osseous structures are intact. No free air below the right hemidiaphragm is seen. IMPRESSION: Ill-defined opacity right lobe is nonspecific and could represent atelectasis or pneumonia, in the right clinical setting. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: History: ___ with elevated wbc count, dementia, increased lethargy// ?infection TECHNIQUE: Routine unenhanced head CT was performed and viewed in brain, intermediate and bone windows. Coronal and sagittal reformats were also performed. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 8.0 s, 16.5 cm; CTDIvol = 48.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 802.7 mGy-cm. 2) Sequenced Acquisition 2.0 s, 4.1 cm; CTDIvol = 48.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 200.7 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 1,003 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: There is no intra-axial or extra-axial hemorrhage, edema, shift of normally midline structures, or evidence of acute major vascular territorial infarction. Prominent ventricles and sulci are compatible with age-related involutional changes. Periventricular white matter hypoattenuation is nonspecific but likely represents chronic small vessel ischemic disease. There are moderate atherosclerotic calcifications of the carotid siphons. There is mild mucosal thickening of bilateral ethmoid air cells. An osteoma is noted in the anterior left ethmoid air cells. Remaining paranasal sinuses are clear. Mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are well aerated. The bony calvarium is intact. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial abnormality on noncontrast head CT. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT abdomen and pelvis without intravenous contrast. INDICATION: ___ with elevated wbc count in ___, dementia, increased lethargy. Evaluate for infection. TECHNIQUE: Multidetector CT images of the abdomen and pelvis were acquired without intravenous contrast. Non-contrast scan has several limitations in detecting vascular and parenchymal organ abnormalities, including tumor detection. Oral contrast was not administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 578 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: There is mild dependent atelectasis in the bilateral lower lobes. There are severe calcifications of the aortic roots and coronary arteries. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: The liver demonstrates homogeneous attenuation throughout. There is a simple cyst at the dome measuring 5.6 x 5.5 cm (series 2:8). There also scattered sub-centimeter hypodensities which are too small to characterize. There is no evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder is within normal limits. PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions within the limitations of an unenhanced scan. There is no pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic stranding. 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 kidneys are of normal and symmetric size. There is no evidence of focal renal lesions within the limitations of an unenhanced scan. There is no hydronephrosis. There is no nephrolithiasis. Mild perinephric stranding bilaterally is within normal limits given the patient's age. GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is unremarkable. Small bowel loops demonstrate normal caliber and wall thickness throughout. The colon and rectum are within normal limits. The appendix is not visualized but there is no secondary sign of acute appendicitis. PELVIS: There is a Foley catheter in the bladder. Air in the anti dependent portions of the bladder is likely due to Foley insertion. There is bladder wall thickening likely due to outlet obstruction from prostatomegaly. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: Prostate is enlarged and protrudes into the base of the bladder. 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. BONES: There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. Moderate to severe endplate degenerative changes are noted of the lower thoracic and lumbar spine. SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute abnormality in the abdomen or pelvis. Specifically, no evidence of a fluid collection or obstruction in the abdomen or pelvis. Appendix not visualized but no secondary sign of acute appendicitis. 2. Bladder wall thickening likely due to bladder outlet obstruction from the enlarged prostate. Cystitis cannot be ruled out. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old man with leukocytosis and AMS// atelectasis vs PNA TECHNIQUE: Chest PA and lateral COMPARISON: Radiograph the chest from ___. FINDINGS: The heart size is normal. The hilar and mediastinal contours are normal. There has been interval improvement of the previously seen pulmonary edema with mild residual pulmonary vascular congestion. Mild left basilar opacity is seen. There is no evidence of a pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The visualized osseous structures are unremarkable. Aortic knob calcifications are seen. IMPRESSION: Mild left basilar opacity is likely secondary to atelectasis, however a superimposed infectious process can't be excluded. No evidence of a pleural effusion or pneumothorax.

Multiple new FDG-avid lymph nodes predominantly in the chest as detailed above. 2. New small volume ascites and diffuse mesenteric and retroperitoneal fat stranding with associated FDG-uptake as above. 3. Abnormal uptake appears to track along the right iliac vessels into the right leg with intense patchy uptake uptake in the proximal musculature (gluteus, abductor group, and hamstrings). 4. New uptake in the right iliac bone. 5. Pericardial uptake may be from the pericardium or from small pericardial lymph nodes, although these are not detected on the CT. 6.

Level of Consciousness: Lethargic but arousable. Activity Status: Out of Bed with assistance to chair or wheelchair. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: Fall and syncope. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph from ___. FINDINGS: There are chronic small bilateral pleural effusions and thickening with chronic atelectasis/scarring of the lower lobes. The hilar and cardiomediastinal contours are normal and the lungs are otherwise clear. There is no pneumothorax. A left chest wall port catheter terminates in the low SVC. IMPRESSION: No acute cardiopulmonary process. Radiology Report HISTORY: Left knee pain after syncope and fall. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Left knee, 3 views. There is a nondisplaced transverse patellar fracture at the inferior ___ of the bone. There is a large joint effusion without fat-fluid level on this cross-table lateral view. There are degenerative changes as well as chondrocalcinosis. A prominent superior patellar spur is present. IMPRESSION: Acute nondisplaced transverse fracture of the patella with large joint effusion. Radiology Report INDICATION: Fall with syncope. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images were obtained through the brain without IV contrast. Coronal, sagittal, thin-section bone reconstruction algorithm images were prepared. COMPARISON: NECT of the head, ___. FINDINGS: There is a new 1.3 x 1.1 cm cortical lesion with hyperdense rim arising from the right temporal lobe (2:14). Also seen is surrounding vasogenic edema. None of these findings were present on ___. There is no shift of normally midline structures. The ventricles and sulci are prominent, consistent with global atrophy. The basal cisterns are patent. There is no hemorrhage. The calvaria are unremarkable. Bilateral lens replacements are seen. Sclerosis of the imaged portion of the right maxillary sinus is probably due to chronic inflammation. Mild mucosal thickening involves the anterior ethmoid air cells. The remaining visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. IMPRESSION: New 1.3 cm right temporal hyperdense lesion suspicious for malignancy, possibly metastasis given this patient's history of lymphoma. Further characterization with MR is recommended. These findings were discovered at 12:01 pm and communicated via phone call to Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ at 12:51 pm. on ___. Radiology Report HISTORY: Patient with history of DLBCL and new brain mass seen on CT, evaluate for lymphoma versus other malignancy. COMPARISON: NECT of the head on ___. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar, multi sequence MRI of the head was performed before and after administration of IV contrast. FINDINGS: In the right temporal lobe, there is a 1.9 x 1.1 cm inhomogeneously enhancing lesion with internal enhancement and a small amount of hemorrhage at the margins, compatible with mass seen on most recent CT. There is vasogenic edema surrounding this mass. This lesion does not demonstrate slow diffusion. The mass appears to arise from an extra-axial location as it appears to exert mass effect on the surrounding cortex with enhancement of the adjacent dura on the postcontrast images. There is no acute infarct. Principal intracranial vascular flow voids are preserved. There is no shift of normally midline structures. Again noted is a punctate focus of low signal in the susceptibility sequence along the left periventricular region, likely representing a small focus of old microhemorrhage. Scattered T2/FLAIR hyperintensities throughout the periventricular white matter likely represent chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The brainstem, posterior fossa and cervical medullary junction are preserved. The orbits, periorbital and paracavernous spaces are normal. No abnormality of the skullbase or calvaria is identified. IMPRESSION: 1.9 cm inhomogeneously enhancing mass with internal enhancement and a small amount of peripheral hemorrhage seen in the right temporal lobe with surrounding vasogenic edema. This mass most likely arises from an extra-axial location. It does not have the typical characteristics of lymphoma as lymphoma lesions tend to be homogeneous and demonstrate slow diffusion. Abscess was also considered, however usually abscess also demonstrates slow diffusion. As the masses likely extra-axial, a glioma less likely. Thus, more likely differential for this mass include aggressive meningioma or metastatic disease. The findings were discussed with ___ by ___ telephone at 5:45pm on ___, 20 minutes after discovery. Radiology Report HISTORY: Cirrhosis with gallbladder mass suspected on recent ultrasound. History of lymphoma. 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 7 cc of Gadavist intravenous contrast. 1 cc of Gadavist mixed with 50 cc of water were administered for oral contrast. COMPARISON: Ultrasound from ___. PET/CTs from ___ and ___. MRI OF THE ABDOMEN WITH AND WITHOUT IV CONTRAST: There is mild bibasilar atelectasis (series 6 image 3). The heart size is normal. There is no pericardial or pleural effusion. Diffuse anasarca is present. Trace perihepatic ascites is present (series 6 image 15). The liver contour is markedly nodular, in keeping with known history of cirrhosis. No discrete intrahepatic mass is detected. Conventional hepatic arterial anatomy is demonstrated. The portal and hepatic veins are patent and normal in caliber. The gallbladder contains a small amount of sludge. There is no gallbladder mass. Mild gallbladder wall edema is likely secondary to third spacing from chronic liver disease. There is no intra or extrahepatic bile duct dilation. No ductal stones are detected. The left kidney is normal. Moderate right hydronephrosis is unchanged since the ___ PET-CT examination (series 1,203 image 91), with precontrast T1 weighted sequences demonstrating uniformly high signal intensity within the renal pelvis and proximal right ureter, likely reflecting delayed excretion of gadolinium-based contrast from the head MRI examination on ___ (series 7 image 37). Again seen is extensive enhancing soft tissue throughout the right perinephric space and retroperitoneum, demonstrating restricted diffusion (series 8 image 31, 32, series 1,203 images 81), corresponding to the areas of high FDG avidity on the prior PET-CT. The IVC remains patent but compressed by the mass (series 1,203 image 102). The spleen is mildly enlarged (series 5 image 26). The adrenal glands, pancreas, and intra-abdominal loops of small and large bowel are normal. The abdominal aorta, celiac trunk, SMA, and renal arteries are patent. There are no bony lesions concerning for malignancy or infection. IMPRESSION: 1. Gallbladder sludge. No concerning gallbladder mass. 2. No intra or extrahepatic bile duct dilation. No ductal stones. 3. Extensive soft tissue throughout the right perinephric space and retroperitoneum, with compression of the IVC, in keeping with known history of lymphoma, corresponding to FDG avid soft tissue lesion on the PET-CT from ___. 4. Stable moderate right hydronephrosis with delayed contrast excretion from a head MRI examination on ___. 5. Mild bibasilar atelectasis. 6. Cirrhotic liver. Trace perihepatic ascites, mild splenomegaly, diffuse anasarca, and mild gallbladder wall edema likely secondary to chronic liver disease.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old woman with IPH, unknown etiology. Evaluate for structural abnormalities in setting of right frontal IPH exam around 10AM on ___ for 24 hr scan. 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: CT head performed ___. CT head and neck performed ___. FINDINGS: Examination is moderately degraded by motion. Within these confines: There is a 2.8 x 2.6 cm (03:13) area of T1 hyperintensity centered within the right frontal lobe with associated susceptibility artifact and moderate adjacent FLAIR/T2 hyperintense edema signal compatible with known intraparenchymal hematoma. This appears relatively unchanged compared to ___, allowing for differences in imaging technique. Local sulcal mass effect also appears essentially unchanged. No other areas of intraparenchymal hemorrhage are identified. Susceptibility artifact in the bilateral basal ganglia are compatible with mineralization, as seen on prior CT head examinations. There is no evidence of recent infarction or midline shift. Prominence of the ventricles and sulci is likely related to age-related involutional change. Periventricular and subcortical T2/FLAIR hyperintensities are nonspecific but may reflect the sequelae of chronic microvascular ischemic disease. The major vascular flow voids appear relatively well preserved. Postcontrast images are moderately motion degraded. Within these confines, no definite abnormal postcontrast enhancement is identified. There is mild bilateral mucosal thickening of the maxillary sinuses, right greater than left. Minimal mucosal thickening of the anterior ethmoid air cells. Mild opacification of the left-sided mastoid air cells. Status post bilateral lens replacements.

Dear Ms ___, You were admitted to the ___ after you had worsening shortness of breath. We had to give you IV diuretic medications to help remove the extra fluid from your body and lungs. We found that you were still in an irregular heart rhythm, "atrial fibrillation," and after talking with your Cardiologist Dr ___ decided to perform an electrical cardioversion, which flipped your heart back into a normal sinus rhythm. - Your dry weight is 62.7 kg. - Our hope is that your heart stays in a normal heart rhythm. If you start to feel palpitations you may have atrial fibrillation again, so notify your MD. - You have urine retention. We discussed this with a urologist while you were here, and this is typically followed as an outpatient. You should have follow up with a urologist to figure out why this is happening. It is probably a chronic problem, and there is nothing urgent to do about it. - Please take your medications as below. - Weigh yourself every day, and if you gain or lose more than 3 lbs please notify your doctor. - If you aren't feeling well and have a little bit of fluid buildup again, it is important to call Dr ___ potentially have yourself scheduled for an appointment to be seen. It was a pleasure taking care of you! Zei Gezunt, Refuah Shlaimah, ve'hatzlachah rabah ad me'ah ve'esrim!! Your ___ Cardiology Team

The rhythm is probably atrial fibrillation with controlled ventricular response. There also appear to be occasional paced beats. Compared to tracing #1 there is no diagnostic interval change. TRACING #2 ___ ECG: Atrial fibrillation. There is loss of R wave forces throughout the precordium. There are occasional wide complex beats which may represent aberrant conduction, although intermittent pacing may also be present. Compared to tracing #2 the loss of R waves in leads V4-V6 is new. TRACING #3 ___ CHEST (PORTABLE AP): FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, the extent of the partly loculated pleural effusions has increased. This is visible both in the fissural aspect of the pre-existing effusion as well as on the apical lateral compartment along the right chest wall. Unchanged evidence of moderate pulmonary edema with associated moderate cardiomegaly. No new parenchymal opacities. Unchanged position of the left pectoral pacemaker, unchanged course of the leads. TEE ___: There are simple atheroma in the descending thoracic aorta. A single tilting disk type aortic valve prosthesis is present. It is well seated and not rocking. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. No aortic valve abscess is seen. Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen, with a trivial amount of perivalvular leak. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Centrally directed Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is no abscess of the tricuspid valve. There is no pericardial effusion. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Single tilting disk aortic valve with no evidence of vegetation or thrombus. Moderate mitral valve regurgitation. Cath ___: COMMENTS: 1) Selective coronary angiography of this right-dominant system demonstrated native three-vessel coronary artery disease. The LMCA had no apparent disease. The LAD was proximally occluded, with the distal vessel territory filling via the patent LIMA. The LCx had a subtotal occlusion at the ostium of the previously-placed bare-metal stent. The RCA was totally occluded in the mid-portion of the vessel, with the distal vessel territory filling via collaterals from the patent LIMA. 2) Arterial conduit angiography demonstrated a LIMA-LAD that was free of angiographically-apparent flow-limiting stenoses. 3) Fluoroscopy of the prosthetic aortic valve showed disk motion that was probably normal; however, it is unclear which type of prosthesis this is. 4) Limited resting hemodynamics revealed moderately-severe left-sided filling pressures, with a mean wedge pressure of 22 mmHg. There was moderately severe pulmonary arterial pressures, with a PA pressure of 66/21 mmHg. The cardiac index was slightly low at 1.84 l/min/m2. FINAL DIAGNOSIS: 1. Three vessel native coronary artery disease. 2. Patent LIMA-LAD. 3. Successful angioplasty of the proximal LCx stent. 4. Moderately severe elevation of left-sided and pulmonary pressures, with reduced cardiac output. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

DOSE: DLP: 811 mGy-cm COMPARISON: No comparison. FINDINGS: Small right thyroid nodule. No supraclavicular, infraclavicular or axillary lymphadenopathy. Several normal sized lymph nodes are seen in the axillary region. Several markedly enlarged anterior mediastinal lymph nodes (2, 20) as well as massively enlarged lymph nodes in the aortopulmonary window and in the pretracheal and paratracheal region (2, 24). Other pathologic lymph nodes are located at the level of the right and left hilus (2, 30) and in subcarinal location. As noted in the referring document, there is evidence of pulmonary embolism (2, 31). There also is a moderate right pleural effusion. In the upper abdomen, splenic calcifications are noted. A 1 cm right adrenal mass is visualized (2, 59). There also is a punctate renal calcification on the left (2, 65). No osteolytic lesions at the level of the ribs, thus sternum, or the vertebral bodies. Moderate degenerative vertebral disease. No vertebral compression fractures. Moderate pulmonary emphysema. Extensive right lymphangitis carcinomatosis a. extensive right upper lobe predominant consolidation, resulting from partial obstruction and narrowing of the upper lobe bronchi and tapering of the supplying arteries (603 a, 58). The consolidation has a more central and a more peripheral subpleural component (4, 125). On the pleural surfaces (4, 131) multiple nodular implants are noted. The bronchial walls are substantially thickened and show evidence of mucous impaction. Areas of pleural thickening are also seen at the basis of the right lower lobe (4, 192). IMPRESSION: Massive perihilar lung mass, with bronchial, vascular, and mediastinal invasion, severe ipsilateral and contralateral lymphadenopathy, obstructive pneumonia, pleural implants, pleural effusion, postobstructive pneumonia, and propagation of the process along the bronchi.

Dear Mr. ___, You were hospitalized after your MRI revealed an ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE, a condition in which a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot. Damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms. Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: - high cholesterol - high blood pressure We are changing your medications as follows: - starting plavix - stopping aspirin - increasing your atorvastatin dose Because we did not find the cause of your stroke, you will have a cardiac monitor outpatient (called ___ of Hearts). Please call ___ to set this up. Please take your other medications as prescribed. Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - sudden partial or complete loss of vision - sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - sudden weakness of one side of the body - sudden drooping of one side of the face - sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body - sudden difficulty pronouncing words (slurring of speech) - sudden blurring or doubling of vision - sudden onset of vertigo (sensation of your environment spinning around you) - sudden clumsiness of the arm and leg on one side or sudden tendency to fall to one side (left or right) - sudden severe headache accompanied by the inability to stay awake It was a pleasure providing you with care during this hospitalization.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a privilege caring for you at ___. WHY WAS I IN THE HOSPITAL? - Your primary care doctor referred you to the ED for low blood pressures. - You told us you had been experiencing occasional dizziness, weakness in your legs, and leg swelling for quite some time. WHAT HAPPENED TO ME IN THE HOSPITAL? - You had lab work that showed your red blood cells and platelets were lower than normal levels. - You had an ultrasound of your heart (echocardiogram) that showed no change in heart function from prior studies, but did show pulmonary hypertension (increased pressures in your lungs). - You had CT-imaging done of your chest to help determine why you have pulmonary hypertension. - You had CT-imaging of your stomach and pelvis to help figure out why your legs have been swelling over the past year or so. This showed lymph nodes deep in your abdomen that are larger than normal, and will need to be biopsied to get a clear answer as to why. - We monitored your blood pressures, and they were never low. WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER I LEAVE THE HOSPITAL? -Please continue to take all of your medications and follow-up with your appointments as listed below. -You will need an Interventional Radiologist (___) guided biopsy of a lymph node. We have asked your PCP to help you arrange this biopsy. -You will need to see a pulmonologist for your new diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension. See below for your appointment scheduling instructions with a pulmonary hypertension specialist. - We held your ___, as well as metoprolol since it may be contributing to your low blood pressures and light-headedness. Speak with your Primary physician about restarting ___ if you are still having difficulty with urinary symptoms. Speak with your cardiologist before restarting metoprolol. - Your cardiology office should call you with a follow-up appointment. Please contact them if you don't hear in the next few days. We wish you the best! Sincerely, Your ___ Team

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to the hospital for a small bowel obstruction. You were given bowel rest and intravenous fluids and a nasogastric tube was placed in your stomach to decompress your bowels. Your obstruction has subsequently resolved after conservative management. You have tolerated a regular diet, are passing gas and your pain is controlled with pain medications by mouth. You may return home to finish your recovery. You had some evidence of inflammation of the bowel on your cat scan and your symptoms improved with antibiotics. You will continue to take flagyl for 3 weeks. If you have any of the following symptoms please call the office for advice or go to the emergency room if severe: increasing abdominal distension, increasing abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, inability to tolerate food or liquids, prolonged loose stool, or extended constipation. You have a midline incision from your prior surgery. We opened a portion of this wound and it will need to be packed with gauze. The rest of the incision is closed with steristrips. Please monitor for worsening signs of infection: increasing redness of the incision lines, white/green/yellow/malodorous drainage, increased pain at the incision, increased warmth of the skin at the incision, or swelling of the area. You may shower; pat the incisions dry with a towel, do not rub. The small incisions may be left open to the air. If closed with steri-strips (little white adhesive strips), these will fall off over time, please do not remove them. Please no baths or swimming until cleared by the surgical team. If you have pain you may take Tylenol as needed. Do not drink alcohol while taking Tylenol. Please do not take more than 3000mg of Tylenol in 24 hours. Thank you for allowing us to participate in your care! Our hope is that you will have a quick return to your life and usual activities.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ man with myelodysplastic syndrome, hemoptysis, fever/chills, evaluate for pneumonia versus tuberculosis TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were obtained through the chest. Coronal and sagittal reformatted images were acquired. Axial MIP images were also obtained. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 567 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Chest CT ___ and ___ FINDINGS: The thyroid is unremarkable. Scattered axillary lymph nodes are not pathologically enlarged. Prominent supraclavicular lymph nodes measure up to 9 mm on the left, unchanged from ___. Mildly enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes are also unchanged from ___ measuring up to 16 mm in the right lower pretracheal station. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber with moderate atherosclerotic calcification. Main pulmonary trunk is not enlarged. Heart size is mildly enlarged. Coronary artery calcifications are moderate, as are aortic annular calcifications. Relative low density of the blood pool is likely related to underlying anemia. The airways are patent to the segmental level. Motion at the lung bases limits evaluation of subsegmental airways. There has been interval progression of multifocal consolidative and ground-glass opacities, compared to prior, with multiple new bilateral upper lobe and right middle lobe opacities. Consolidative opacities at the right and left lung base have also increased. There are new small bilateral pleural effusions left greater than right with lower lobe septal thickening. Diffuse reticulation and upper lobe predominant septal thickening has not significantly changed. There is no pneumothorax. Views of the upper abdomen demonstrate unchanged pneumobilia. There is a small hiatal hernia. There are no suspicious bony lesions. IMPRESSION: 1. Progression of multifocal consolidative and ground-glass opacities, since ___ now involving all lobes, differential is broad but includes multifocal infection, vasculitis. Given the rapid interval progression cryptogenic organizing pneumonia, is felt to be less likely. 2. Unchanged mediastinal lymphadenopathy. 3. New small bilateral pleural effusions and lower lobe septal thickening, consistent with background pulmonary edema. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ w/worsening sob and new tachycardia // interval changes, pulm edema, consolidations TECHNIQUE: Portable AP chest radiograph COMPARISON: Chest radiographs from ___. .

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure caring for you at ___. You presented with bloody diarrhea, which has since stopped. We are still unsure what caused it, but we think it either resulted from an infection in your colon, low blood flow to the colon while you exercised, or inflammation in the colon from another cause. You were given IV fluids and monitored closely. Your blood counts were stable, you are feeling better, are no longer having bloody diarrhea like you were yesterday, and are eating solid food, so we feel that you are ready for discharge. Additionally, the use of ibuprofen can exacerbate (or cause) gastrointestinal bleeding (typically from the stomach). Please use this sparingly and alternate with acetaminophen. Please keep yourself well-hydrated with drinks like gatorade while you continue to have diarrhea and only eat food that you can tolerate. Please review your medications below closely and take them as prescribed. Please keep your follow-up appointment below.

There is a wedge-shaped hypodensity at the hilum of the spleen likely a perfusional defect due to timing of contrast. IMPRESSION: 1. New 6 mmn nodule in the left upper lobe, potentially infectious or inflammatory in etiology. Numerous additional pulmonary nodules are stable dating back to ___ and are consistent with a benign etiology given long-term stability. 2. Mild interstitial edema and small to moderate right pleural effusion. Enlargement of the right atrium and ventricle with straightening of the interventricular septum, suggestive of right heart disease. 3. Trace perihepatic stranding and small volume ascites, incompletely assessed. 4. Wedge-shaped hypodensity at the splenic hilum, likely perfusional defect related to timing of contrast. RECOMMENDATION(S): Follow-up CT thorax in 3 months to reassess the left upper lobe nodule.

Dear Mr. ___, It has been a pleasure caring for you at ___. You presented to ___ on ___ with 4 days of cough with blood, abdominal pain, nausea, and fever. Your symptoms were likely due to a viral illness, and this resolved without antibiotics. However, the levels of tacrolimus in your blood were undetectable and your liver tests continued to increase throughout your hospitalization, raising concern for transplant rejection. Therefore, we increased your dose of tacrolimus. We also performed a biopsy of your liver which showed rejection of your liver by your immune system. We gave you additional medicines including steroids to suppress your immune system, however your liver tests remained elevated. You received a second liver biopsy which showed ongoing rejection of your liver. We then added another medicine called ATG (anti-thymocyte globlulin) to further suppress your immune system. After 7 days of therapy with ATG, your liver tests improved. You will need to return to ___ next week for another liver biopsy to make sure that your immune system has stopped rejecting your liver. You will be following up with pulmonology as you have coughed up small amounts of blood and were found to have a nodule in the lung as well as high pressures in the blood vessels of the lung. You will also need an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) to further evaluate this. Your blood sugars have been high so please follow up with your ___ endocrinologist. It has been a pleasure taking care of you, Best wishes, Your ___ Team

Dear Ms ___, It was a privilege caring for you at ___. WHY WAS I IN THE HOSPITAL? -You were admitted to the hospital because you were having shortness of breath. WHAT HAPPENED TO ME IN THE HOSPITAL? - You were seen by our lung experts who tried to drain the fluid around your lung. They were unable to drain the fluid unfortunately. We discussed possible surgery to treat this. You decided not to do surgery. We gave you antibiotics to control your lung infection and morphine to help with your shortness of breath. We arranged hospice services so help you spend quality time outside the hospital with family. WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER I LEAVE THE HOSPITAL? - Take your medicines as prescribed. Take morphine 30 minutes before you exert yourself for best effect. - You have a follow-up appointment with your oncologist to check on you and make sure your symptoms are under control. If it is too difficult to make it to the office, your oncologist is happy to speak by phone instead. See below for details and phone number. We wish you the best! Sincerely, Your ___ Team

DIAGNOSIS: HYPERCELLULAR BONE MARROW WITH EXTENSIVE INVOLVEMENT BY ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA WITH MORPHOLOGICAL FEATURES CONSISTENT WITH ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA. The morphologic features favor a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Cytogenetics demonstrated a t(15:17) translocation, confirming this diagnosis. Concurrent flow cytometry showed that the neoplastic cells were positive for CD34, CD13, CD33, CD117, CD56 (dim), CD64 (dim), CD71 and CD2. By flow cytometry, blast cells comprised 53% of total gated events. Peripheral blood smear. The smear is adequate for evaluation. Erythrocytes are normochromic, and normocytic with marked anisopoikilocytosis including micro and macrocytes, many ovalocytes, occasional dacrocytes, scattered echinocytes, mild polychromasia with rare fine basophilic stippling. The white blood cell count is markedly decreased. The platelet count appears markedly decreased. Occasional large and giant platelets are seen. A 200 cell differential shows 45% neutrophils, 0% bands, 48% lymphocytes, 5% monocytes, 0% eosinophils, 1% basophils. Aspirate smear. The aspirate material is inadequate for evaluation due to lack of spicules and hemodilution. Scattered hemophagocytic macrophages are seen. A 200 cell differential shows 21% blasts, 24% promyelocytes, 9% myelocytes, 4% metamyelocytes, 8% bands/neutrophils, 1% eosinophils, 16% erythroids, 17% lymphocytes, 0% plasma cells. Clot section and biopsy slides. The core biopsy material is adequate for evaluation. It consists of a 2.0 cm core biopsy of trabecular marrow with a cellularity of nearly 100%. The M:E ratio estimate is increased. There is an interstitial infiltrate of immature mononuclear cells, consistent with blasts and promyelocytes occupying greater than 90% of overall cellularity. These cells have high N:E ratio, prominent nucleoli, irregular to cleaved nuclei and granular cytoplasm. Mitoses and apoptotic cells are common. In the remaining cellularity, erythroid precursors are relatively proportionately decreased in number, and have overall normoblastic maturation. Myeloid precursors are relatively proportionately increased in number, with left-shifted maturation. Megakaryocytes are normal in number, and include occasional hyperlobulated forms.

HYPERCELLULAR BONE MARROW WITH EXTENSIVE INVOLVEMENT BY ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, SEE NOTE. The morphologic features favor a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia, given the increased blasts, neoplastic promyelocytes (enumerated at 55% of cellularity) and severely left-shifted maturation. FISH study showed the presence of the characteristic t(15:17)(q22;q12) translocation, confirming this diagnosis. Flow cytometry showed that the abnormal cells (53% of total events) were positive for CD34, CD13, CD33, CD117, CD56 (dim), CD64 (dim), CD71 and CD2. Peripheral blood smear. The smear is adequate for evaluation. Erythrocytes are normochromic and normocytic with anisopoikilocytosis including micro and macrocytes, many ovalocytes, occasional dacrocytes, scattered schistocytes, mild polychromasia and fine basophilic stippling. The white blood cell count is markedly decreased. Occasional neutrophils are hypolobated and hypogranular. The platelet count appears markedly decreased. Occasional large and giant platelets are seen. A 100 cell differential shows 52% neutrophils, 2% bands, 33% lymphocytes, 4% monocytes, 0% eosinophils, 0% basophils, 2% atypical lymphocytes. Aspirate smear. The aspirate material is inadequate for evaluation due to lack of spicules and hemodilution. Instead, a second core biopsy sent in saline was used to create a touch prep for evaluation. The M:E ratio is 10:1. Erythroid precursors are decreased in number and exhibit megaloblastic maturation, including cells with irregular nuclear contour. Myeloid precursors are increased in number and show left-shifted/dyspoietic maturation, including large aggregates of neoplastic promyelocytes with irregular to cleaved nuclear outlines, prominent nucleoli, and coarse azurophilic cytoplasmic granules, very few maturing cells are seen. Rare cells with Aur rods are seen. Megakaryocytes are not seen. Hemaphagocytic macrophages are seen. A 500 cell differential shows 13% blasts, 55% promyelocytes, 5% myelocytes, 1% metamyelocytes, 1% bands/neutrophils, 1% eosinophils, 7% erythroids, 13% lymphocytes, 2% plasma cells, 1% macrophages. Clot section and biopsy slides. The core biopsy material is adequate for evaluation. It consists of a 1.2 cm core biopsy of trabecular marrow with a cellularity of 100%. The M:E ratio estimate is increased. There is an interstitial infiltrate of immature mononuclear cells, consistent with blasts and promyelocytes with a high N:C ratio, prominent nucleoli, irregular to cleaved nuclei, and granular cytoplasm, occupying > 90% of overall cellularity. Erythroid precursors are decreased in number and have overall normoblastic maturation. Myeloid precursors are increased in number with left-shifted maturation. Mitoses and apoptotic cells are seen, as well as hemophagocytic cells. Megakaryocytes are decreased in number.

Clot section contains blood and marrow elements and similar findings as above. = = ================================================================ BM biopsy ___ SPECIMEN: BONE MARROW ASPIRATE AND CORE BIOPSY DIAGNOSIS: CELLULAR BONE MARROW WITH MYELOID DOMINANT MATURATION. NO MORPHOLOGIC EVIDENCE OF INVOLVEMENT BY PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA. SEE NOTE. Note: The marrow shows myeloid dominant maturation with terminal differentiation. No abnormal promyelocytes are identified. However, in a patient with a history of promyelocytic leukemia and differentiation therapy, correlation with cytogenetic and molecular studies is recommended to assess minimal residual disease. Mild dyspoiesis is noted within the erythroids, possibly due to recent therapy. Clinical correlation is recommended. MICROSCOPIC DESCRIPTION: Peripheral blood smear: The smear is adequate for evaluation. Erythrocytes are decreased, normochromic and normocytic with slight anisopoikilocytosis including elliptocytes, polychromatophils, and occasional dacrocytes and schistocytes. The white blood cell count is markedly decreased. A subset of neutrophils (5%) show abnormal maturation with nuclear-cytoplasmic dyssynchrony. Nucleated RBCs are seen with rare asymptomatic nuclear budding. No increase in promyelocytes is seen. The platelet count appears markedly decreased. Occasional large and giant platelets are seen. A 200 cell differential shows 49% neutrophils, 3% bands, 39% lymphocytes, 5% monocytes, 0% eosinophils, 0% basophils, 1% metas, 2% myelo, 2% atyps. 4% nrbcs per 100 WBCs. Aspirate smear: The aspirate material is inadequate for evaluation due to lack of spicules and hemodilution. Erythroid precursors exhibit dyspoietic maturation, including cells with irregular nuclear contours and asymmetric nuclear budding.

Outpatient Lab Work please check blood work on ___ CEM10 CBC with diff fax to:Dr ___ ___ Office ___ dx: AML Discharge Disposition: Home With Service Facility: ___ Discharge Diagnosis: primary: APML, perianal phlegmon secondary: neutropenia, anemia Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: Neutropenic fever. Evaluate for pneumonia. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Frontal views of the chest were obtained. Vague heterogeneous density in the left lower lobe is nonspecific but in the setting of neutropenia may represent infection. No substantial pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Heart size is top normal and cardiomediastinal contours are otherwise unremarkable. No radiopaque foreign body. IMPRESSION: Vague left lower lobe heterogeneous density, which may represent infection in the setting of neutropenia vs overlap of structures. If the patient is able, dedicated PA and lateral views would be helpful for further evaluation. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ female presents with neutropenic fever and concerning bone marrow biopsy. Question lymphadenopathy or mass. COMPARISON: None available. TECHNIQUE: MDCT images were acquired from the thoracic inlet through the pubic symphysis prior to and following the administration of intravenous contrast with multiphasic imaging performed through the abdomen, and multiplanar reformations provided. CT CHEST: There is no mediastinal, hilar, or axillary lymphadenopathy. The heart is normal in size without pericardial effusion. There is relative myocardial ___ to the blood pool, suggestive of anemia. Although not tailored for assessment of pulmonary embolism, no large central thrombus is present. In the right upper lobe, there are two sub-4-mm pulmonary nodules (3, 23), and a tubular 5-mm opacity in the right middle lobe (3, 27) could represent an additional nodule. A 6-mm ground-glass pulmonary nodule is seen in the anterior basal segment of the left lower lobe (3, 41). A 6-mm triangular nodule is seen in the left upper lobe (3, 22). These could be either compared to prior imaging when available or followed. There is no confluent consolidation or pleural effusion. Central airways are patent. There is posterior fissural thickening on the right (3, 27). CT ABDOMEN: There is no focal lesion in the liver. There is no biliary dilatation. The hepatic and portal veins are patent. The gallbladder demonstrates mild diffuse mural edema, without pericholecystic fluid or stranding, which is a nonspecific finding. The spleen, a tiny splenule, pancreas, and adrenal glands are unremarkable. The kidneys enhance symmetrically without hydronephrosis or hydroureter. A subcentimeter hypodensity in the lower pole of the left kidney may represent a tiny cyst or AML, but is too small to definitively assess (5, 44). Small and large bowel loops are normal in caliber. There is no mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. The appendix is normal. Great vessels are patent. CT PELVIS: The bladder is collapsed, containing a Foley catheter. The uterus contains a small fibroid. The ovaries are normal. A small enhancing corpus luteal cyst is seen in the left ovary. Moderate amount of likely physiologic fluid is seen in the cul-de-sac. There is no inguinal or pelvic sidewall lymphadenopathy. No free fluid in the pelvis. BONE WINDOWS: A circumscribed focus of sclerosis in the left iliac wing likely represents a small bone island. There is no concerning osseous lesion. Minimal endplate sclerosis and spondylosis is seen at T11 anterosuperiorly. IMPRESSION: 1. No lymphadenopathy in the chest, abdomen, or pelvis. 2. Several small solid and ground-glass pulmonary nodules, some of which may be infectious or inflammatory in etiology. Comparison to prior exams may be helpful, otherwise, these could be followed. 3. Findings suggestive of anemia. 4. Tiny left renal hypodensity, too small to characterize, but could represent a small cyst or AML. 5. Gallbladder wall edema, a nonspecific finding - while inflammatory change (cholecystitis) can cause this appearance, as an incidental finding this could be related to other systemic processes such as underlying hypoalbuminemia, IV hydration or drug related effects. Radiology Report AP CHEST, 3:05 P.M., ___ HISTORY: A ___ woman with new pancytopenia and acute respiratory distress. Is there pneumonia or pleural effusion. IMPRESSION: AP chest compared to ___, read in conjunction with a torso CT, ___ at 2:30 p.m.: Moderate generalized interstitial abnormality with mild bibasilar confluence has progressed substantially over the course of less than an hour, strong indication that the explanation is pulmonary edema. There is no appreciable pleural effusion and no pneumothorax. Findings were discussed by telephone with Dr. ___ at 4:20 p.m., 1 minute after the findings were recognized. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ female patient with AML and new right IJ placement. COMPARISON: Prior chest radiograph from ___. TECHNIQUE: Portable chest AP radiograph. FINDINGS: As compared to prior chest radiograph from ___, there has been interval placement of a right IJ central venous catheter with its tip projecting within the right atrium. There is no pneumothorax. There are low lung volumes. However, pulmonary edema has markedly improved. No pleural effusions are identified. The heart is top normal in size. IMPRESSION: Right internal jugular central venous catheter tip in right atrium for which withdrawal of 4 cm is recommended. Interval improvement of pulmonary edema. A wet read of this report was provided to Dr. ___ telephone on ___ at 20:30. Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH INDICATION: AML, line placement. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: As compared to the previous image, the right internal jugular vein catheter has been pulled back. The catheter now projects over the inflow tract of the right atrium and is in correct position. No complications, notably no pneumothorax. Otherwise, unchanged radiographic appearance. Radiology Report MR PELVIS WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST COMPARISON: CT torso from ___. INDICATION: ___ woman with APML and worsening anal fissure for two weeks, evaluate for perirectal abscess or possible fistula. TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar, multisequence MR imaging was obtained before and after administration of 10 cc of Gadovist IV contrast. FINDINGS: MR PELVIS: Visualized bowel is normal. There is a mild-to-moderate amount of pelvic free fluid noted within the cul-de-sac. The uterus demonstrates a small 1.9 x 1.6-cm fibroid within the anterior uterine wall. Additionally, there are cysts within the bilateral ovaries, the largest measuring up to 2 cm within the left ovary (9:7). Small vessels with bulbous components, left greater than right are noted within the intersphincteric space, likely representing small hemorrhoids. A vascular blush is noted along the posterior wall of the vagina at the level of the introitus. However, there is no underlying discrete fistula seen. This is best appreciated on series 1101 without significant T2 signal edema. Additionally, there is a 2.3 x 1.1 x 3.7 cm area of infrasphincteric phlegmonous inflammation in the left medial ischio-anal fossa without evidence of intrinsic fluid to suggest abscess formation. No discrete fistulous tract is identified originating from this. No evidence of sphincteric involvement. BONES AND SOFT TISSUES: No signal abnormalities are noted within the osseous structures. Incidental note of a left-sided Tarlov cyst. Nonspecific edema is noted within the anterior thigh subcutaneous soft tissues and muscles. IMPRESSION: 1. Infrasphincteric phlegmon without sphinteric involvement and without origin from the anal canal. No discrete fistulous tract or drainable fluid collection is noted. 2. Nonspecific vascular blush is noted about the posterior wall of the vagina at the level of the introitus. No discrete fistula is seen. Recommend clinical correlation of this region. Inflammation can have a similar appearance. 3. Small anterior uterine fibroid is noted. 4. Nonspecific mild-to-moderate amount of pelvic free fluid within the cul-de-sac. 5. Left-sided Tarlov's cyst is seen. Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH INDICATION: Evaluation for pulmonary edema. COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is no relevant change. Low lung volumes, moderate cardiomegaly, no evidence of pulmonary edema. No pleural effusions. No focal parenchymal opacities. Unchanged position of the right internal jugular vein catheter. Radiology Report PROCEDURE: 1. Placement of tunneled right-sided triple-lumen central venous catheter. 2. Removal of right-sided temporary triple-lumen venous line. HISTORY: ___ female with advanced promyelocytic leukemia requiring: central venous access. OPERATOR: Dr. ___, attending, performed the procedure. ANESTHESIA: Conscious sedation was provided by administering divided doses of Versed (3 mg) and fentanyl (200 mcg) throughout the total intraservice time of 30 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored. In addition, the patient received 1% lidocaine and 1% lidocaine with epinephrine over the right internal jugular vein access site and along the right anterior chest wall subcutaneous tunnel. PROCEDURE NOTE IN DETAIL: Informed consent was obtained outlining the risks and benefits of the proposed procedure. The patient was then brought to the angio department and placed supine on the imaging table. The skin overlying the right internal jugular vein, existing catheter and right chest were prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A preprocedure huddle and timeout were performed as per ___ protocol. Under real-time ultrasound guidance, following administration of 1% buffered lidocaine, a micropuncture needle was advanced into the patent and compressible right internal jugular vein. Following return of blood, an 0.018 nitinol wire was easily advanced into the SVC. The needle was removed and exchanged for a 4.5 ___ micropuncture sheath. Via the sheath, an 035 ___ wire was advanced to the level of the right atrium and appropriate measurements for catheter length were calculated. This wire was then advanced into the ___ for stability. Attention was then turned to creation of an anterior chest wall tunnel. Following administration of 1% lidocaine and 1% lidocaine with epinephrine, a 2 mm incision was made using an 11 blade. A 13 ___ triple-lumen catheter was then advanced with the aid of a tunneling device to exit at the venotomy site. The catheter was cut to the appropriate length (21 cm) and the cuff was positioned approximately 2 cm from the skin incision. The venotomy tract was dilated using sequential 8-, 10- and ___ dilators. This was followed by placement of a 13 ___ peel-away sheath. Via the sheath the port tubing was incrementally advanced and the peel-away sheath was removed. A scout fluoroscopic image demonstrated satisfactory catheter tip positioned in the mid right atrium with no evidence of kinking of the catheter tubing. The catheter was secured to the skin using 0 silk anchor sutures. The catheter was aspirated and flushed normally and sterile caps applied. The venotomy incision was closed using a ___ Vicryl subcuticular suture and Steri-Strips and sterile dressings were again applied. The existing temporary triple-lumen catheter was removed from the right internal jugular vein and manual pressure held for 15 minutes. Good hemostasis was achieved. Patient was transferred in stable condition to the floor for further post-procedure monitoring. The catheter may be used immediately for infusion therapy. IMPRESSION: Uncomplicated placement of a 13 ___ Hickman catheter (triple-lumen) via the right internal jugular vein. The catheter may be used for infusion therapy immediately. The tip lies in the right atrium.

In the superior portion of the left lower lobe, there is a heterogeneously enhancing spiculated mass measuring 4.2 x 5.3 cm in AP and transverse ___, respectively. The bulk of the mass is nodular and centered within the lung parenchyma; however, there is medial linear extension which courses along the descending thoracic aorta approximately 8.7 cm in craniocaudal dimension. There is mild post-obstructive pneumonitis (5:51). The mass causes narrowing of the coursing pulmonary arteries without evidence of pulmonary embolus. There is mass effect on the lower lobe bronchi with occlusion of the inferomedial bronchi (___). 6-mm right upper lobe pulmonary nodule is evident (2:27). There is a 1-2 mm right lower lobe pulmonary nodule (5:41). Peripheral ground-glass opacity in the right upper lobe, just superior to the major fissure (2:32) is nonspecific. There is no pleural effusion. Extensive coronary artery and aortic atherosclerotic calcifications are evident. There appears to be mild irregularity/ulceration of the left lateral margin of the aortic arch (5A:12). The ascending aorta measures 3.1 cm. Left hilar and subcarinal adenopathy is evident; measuring 1.5 cm in the left hilum and 1.1 cm in the subcarinal region. There is no right hilar or axillary adenopathy. The right atrium is enlarged. Also at the right base, there is nodular opacity at the periphery with associated linear atelectasis (5a:72) which may represent rounded atelectasis with attention on followup recommended. ABDOMEN: Ill-defined 5-mm hypodensity in hepatic segment II (5B:87) is too small to accurately characterize. No additional liver lesions are identified. The portal and hepatic veins are patent. The spleen, pancreas and gallbladder are within normal limits. Bilateral adrenal nodules which are heterogeneous in appearance are evident. Nodule in the left adrenal gland measures 9 mm (5B:85). The remainder of the left adrenal gland is thickened. In the right adrenal gland, there is a hypodense 1.3-cm nodule (5B:86). There are bilateral hypodense renal lesions. The largest is in the mid-to-lower pole of the left kidney measuring slightly higher than water density in ___ units and 4.7 cm. This likely represents a cyst with possible hemorrhagic or proteinaceous debris. In the interpolar region of the right kidney, there is an 8-mm hypodense lesion which measures 97 in ___ units. Non-contrast imaging through the kidneys was not performed to confirm enhancement. The kidneys demonstrate symmetric uptake and excretion of contrast. There is extensive atherosclerotic calcification within the normal caliber abdominal aorta. There is no obvious mesenteric or retroperitoneal adenopathy. Visualized bowel loops are grossly unremarkable. Multiple enhancing subcutaneous nodules are evident; for example, measuring 1.9 cm overlying the lateral right lower ribs, measuring 1.4 cm in the left flank and measuring 1.3 cm in the mid left anterior abdominal wall. These are suspicious for subcutaneous metastases. PELVIS: The bladder and rectum are grossly unremarkable. The uterus is not identified, possibly surgically absent. The ovaries are also not identified. There is no pelvic adenopathy or free fluid. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: Multiple lytic osseous metastases are identified in the left tip of the scapula, T11 vertebral body, posterior ninth rib on the right, left posterior iliac bone, right anterior iliac bone, and sternum. In addition, there are multiple osseous sclerotic lesions in the posterior left rib, left iliac bone surrounding the lytic lesions, and left sacral ala. IMPRESSION: 1. No pulmonary embolism. 2. Left lower lobe spiculated lung mass measuring 4.2 x 5.3 x 7.7 cm, concerning for a primary lung malignancy. The spiculated mass runs along the descending thoracic aorta with its linear medial component approximately 8.7 cm in craniocaudal dimension. There are two small right pulmonary nodules, possibly representing metastases measuring 6 and 2 mm. 3. Osseous metastatic disease with mixed lytic and sclerotic lesions. 4. Enhancing subcutaneous nodules concerning for metastases. 5. Bilateral adrenal nodules, likely metastases. 6. 8mm inter-polar right renal lesion is incompletely evaluated on this examination. This does not measure fluid density. When clinically appropriate, further characterization with ultrasound may be beneficial. Additional simple left renal cyst and too small to characterize lesions. 7. Significant aortic atherosclerotic disease and extensive coronary artery calcifications. . ___ MRI head: There is a 20 x 11 mm measuring oval right temporal-occipital calvarium lesion, which likely represents a bone metastasis and is pushing on the dura without evidence of adjacent FLAIR signal abnormality or involvement of the intra-axial space. Additional osseous metastases are not identified in the imaged volume. A briskly enhancing 12 (AP) x 9 (TRV) x 15 (SI) left parasagittal frontal lesion appears to be extra-axial and is exerting mass effect on the adjacent sulcus. There is no associated parenchymal FLAIR signal abnormality and the lesion most likely corresponds to a parafalcine meningioma. There is no evidence of intra-axial metastatic lesions. Extensive periventricular, subcortical and deep white matter FLAIR/T2 signal abnormalities are in keeping with sequela of small vessel ischemic disease. Flow voids of the major intracranial vessels are preserved. The visualized paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear. IMPRESSION: 1. Right occipital calvarium lesion, likely representing bony metastasis. 2. Left frontal parasagittal mass, most likely representing a meningioma. 3. There is no evidence of intraparenchymal metastatic disease and no acute findings, such as hemorrhage or infarct. . ___ L tib/fib XRAY TWO VIEWS OF THE TIBIA AND FIBULA: No definitive lytic or sclerotic lesions are seen, however there is an area of trabecular rarefaction within the distal fibula. While this may be projectional, please correlate clinically and consider dedicated ankle radiographs. . ___ CYTOLOGY FNA, Right abdominal lesion: POSITIVE FOR MALIGNANT CELLS, consistent with a poorly differentiated non-small cell carcinoma; see note. . ___ PATHOLOGY Cell block, right abdominal lesion, FNA: Positive for malignant cells, consistent with a poorly-differentiated non-small cell carcinoma; Note: By immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells are positive for cytokeratin cocktail (keratin AE1/AE3, Cam 5.2), CK7, and TTF-1 and are negative for CK20, CDX-2, S-100, and desmin. Smooth muscle actin highlights background stromal cells. The histologic and immunohistochemical findings are compatible with a tumor of lung origin.

Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Mental Status: Confused - always. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: Delirium, status post fall. COMPARISON: ___. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial MDCT images were obtained of the head without contrast. Multiplanar reformatted images were generated in the coronal and sagittal planes as well as thin section bone algorithm images. DLP: 1410.36 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: No hemorrhage, edema, mass effect or acute vascular territorial infarct. There is re-demonstration of encephalomalacia in the right corona radiata extending inferiorly into the insular white matter compatible with a prior right MCA territory infarct. Prominent ventricles and sulci are suggestive of age-related involutional change. Areas of confluent periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensity is compatible with chronic small vessel ischemic disease. No fracture is identified. There is re-demonstration of a significant mucosal wall thickening with aerated material of the bilateral maxillary sinuses, sphenoid sinuses, frontal sinuses and ethmoid air cells. The mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. The globes are intact. Dense vascular calcifications are noted in the vertebral arteries and carotid siphons. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial process. 2. Encephalomalacia from prior right MCA territorial infarct. 3. Extensive sinus disease as above appears acute. Radiology Report HISTORY: Delirium, status post fall. COMPARISON: ___. TECHNIQUE: PA and lateral chest radiograph, four views. FINDINGS: The heart size is normal with tortuosity of the thoracic aorta. The hilar contours are unchanged. The lungs are mildly hyperexpanded. Again appreciated are diffuse increased interstitial lung markings suggestive of chronic interstitial abnormality. There is no focal consolidation worrisome for pneumonia. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The osseous structures are grossly unremarkable. IMPRESSION: No significant change compared to prior study with redemonstration of mild hyperinflation and global increased interstitial markings most compatible with emphysema. Radiology Report HISTORY: Delirium, status post fall with knee pain. COMPARISON: Right knee radiographs ___. TECHNIQUE: Right knee radiograph, three views. FINDINGS: The patient is status post right total knee revision arthroplasty with rotation hinge in place. There is no perihardware lucency or hardware fracture. No fracture is identified. Surrounding heterotopic ossification is unchanged from prior study. There is no effusion. IMPRESSION: No fracture. Revision total arthroplasty in place without hardware complication.

Chief Complaint: N/V Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is a pleasant ___ w/ HTN, non-ischemic CMY (LVEF 45-50% TTE ___, LBBB, and recently diagnosed NSCLC (___) w/ brain mets s/p CK, on ___, course c/b afib w/ RVR requiring ICU, subsegmental PE now on enoxaparin, who p/w persistent n/v after her C8 on ___. She received on ___ C8 pembrolizumab and pemetrexed, and at that time she felt like she was just recovering from her previous cycles. ___ she presented to ED w/ N/V/dehydration and improved with IV hydration and antiemetics. SHe was discharged home. Since then she continues to have no appetite, persistent nausea, unable to hold down PO, and is feeling orthostatic. She presented again to the ED today unable to keep anything down. IN fact, she has been too weak to take her lovenox shots and not taking her scheduled meds consistently. She denied F/C, no diarrhea. Her last BM was about 7 days ago and it was normal then. She normally moves her bowels daily. She is feeling orthostatic but denied any CP/SOB. SHe has a cough and that is dry and unchanged from baseline. She lives at home w/ her partner and does not have any exposure to sick contacts. Of note, with her recent cycles, she had N/V "iso not using zofran/compazine/decadron" per her oncologist. In the ED, Tmax 99.5F. HR 94, 102/61. She received IV morphine, Zofran, and 1L NS and admitted. She does feel improved. Past Medical History: PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY (per OMR): 1. Status post ___ cGy stereotactic brain radiotherapy to 2 left cerebellar and 1 right temporal brain lesion on ___. 2. Status post 6 cycles of carboplatin 5->4->3.5->0 AUC, pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 and pembrolizumab 200 mg fixed dose on ___ Ms. ___ is a ___ year-old white woman with a current smoking history (10 pack-years) who presented to medical care with possible post-obstructive pneumonia (requiring antibiotics), cough and dyspnea with exertion. Some fatigue and anorexia was also noted. A PET/CT Scan from ___ showed an FDG avid right upper lobe mass with numerous scattered FDG-avid pulmonary nodules and FDG avid mediastinal and right hilar lymphadenopathy. There was a small right pleural effusion, a 9mm artocaval lymph node, and subtle focus of posterior right twelfth rib. Brain MRI from ___ showed there are three new enhancing foci (left cerebellar hemisphere and right temporal lobe) worrisome for metastatic disease. A bronchoscopy was performed by Interventional Pulmonology on ___ and the right lobe lesion, level 7 and level 4R nodes were positive for adenocarcinoma. The tumor cells were positive for CK7 and negative for TTF-1 and Napsin-A. Tumor has KRAS G12I mutation, STK11 splice site 464+2T>G mutation, KEAP1 T545fs*1 mutation and PD-L1 IHC TPS 0% (not yet confirmed in second specimen). Material was insufficient for tumor mutation burden or microsatellite instability status. It is noteworthy that the biopsy material from ___ showed an adenocarcinoma but without the pathognomonic markers of TTF-1 and Napsin-A. Therefore, one cannot be completely certain of the site of origin. Imaging studies don't disclose another primary site but some of the multiple lung lesions could be from a metastatic process. The results from comprehensive genomic profiling with a KRAS G12I mutation cannot pinpoint another primary site. She is now status post ___ cGy stereotactic brain radiotherapy to 2 left cerebellar and 1 right temporal brain lesion on ___. MRI brain from ___ showed mostly stable brain disease burden. MRI brain from ___ showed some improvement in previously treated lesions. She completed four cycles ___, but ___ was held for cycles 5 and 6 while pemetrexed and pembro were continued. Her restaging scans following 6 cycles demonstrated a "mixed response" with improvement in all sites of disease except for increased FDG avidity/enlargement of a R hilar node conglomerate, LLL nodule and 1mm increase in size of dominant brain metastasis. Given otherwise improved disease and overall clinical stability we recommended continuation of pemetrexed/pembrolizumab for another two cycles to be followed by re-staging scans. She did additionally have new bone metastases in her sphenoid and left frontal bones noted on her last brain MRI, appear to be causing pain that is quite intense at times. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY (per OMR): - Unclear cardiac event/myocardial disorder with normal ejection fraction in ___ (in follow-up); - Prior ___ esophagus; - Arthritis not active; - Migraines not active; - Hypertension under medical control; - Prior depression.

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: ___ brain MRI and ___ brain MRI FINDINGS: A ring-enhancing lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere has increased in size and measures 1.4 x 1.3 cm, previously 1.2 x 1.1 cm. Adjacent vasogenic edema is unchanged with no significant effacement of the fourth ventricle. Subtle associated susceptibility artifact is unchanged and likely reflects prior hemorrhage. A 4 mm enhancing nodule located more laterally within the left cerebellar hemisphere is essentially unchanged (series 14, image 38). A 4 mm enhancing nodule in the lateral right temporal lobe is unchanged (series 14, image 69). No new enhancing intra-axial lesions identified. Extensive T1 marrow signal hypointensity with associated enhancement and slowed diffusion in the left sphenoid wing and left frontal bone has increased since ___. Expansion of the adjacent left temporalis muscle associated with T2 signal hyperintensity and enhancement and loss of fat striations is new since the prior examination. Extensive left cerebral pachymeningeal enhancement is similar to the prior examination. There is no evidence of new hemorrhage or infarction. Nonenhancing periventricular and subcortical white matter T2/FLAIR hyperintensities are nonspecific and unchanged, likely sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The major arteries of the circle of ___ in the proximal branches appear unremarkable. The dural venous sinuses are patent. There is mild paranasal sinus mucosal thickening. A left lens replacement is noted. IMPRESSION: 1. A 1.4 x 1.3 cm rim enhancing metastasis in the left cerebellar hemisphere has increased in size, previously 1.2 x 1.1 cm. Smaller enhancing metastases in the left cerebellar hemisphere and lateral right temporal lobe are unchanged. No new intra-axial lesions identified. 2. Metastatic infiltration of the left sphenoid wing and left frontal bone has increased since the prior examination. Evidence of adjacent left temporalis muscle involvement is new. Extensive left cerebral pachymeningeal thickening and enhancement is not appreciably changed.

You were admitted to the hospital because of nausea, vomiting, and poor appetite, which were most likely due to your chemotherapy. While in the hospital, you also had low blood counts due to your chemotherapy. Because you developed a fever and had evidence of a skin infection around your left eye, we needed to keep you on IV antibiotics for several days. When you leave the hospital you will need a few more days of oral antibiotics to complete the course. You also had low calcium and phosphorus levels, which were most likely due to the zometa you received recently. By the time of discharge, your calcium and phosphorus were stable with you receiving additional supplementation by mouth. While in the hospital you also had discussions with Dr. ___, Dr. ___ Dr. ___ about next steps in your cancer care. You have follow-up scheduled with each of their teams. We have reduced your metoprolol dose from 50 mg to 25 mg daily since your blood pressures were slightly low in the hospital. We also recommend taking your dronabinol twice daily instead of on an as-needed basis.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Facility: ___ Discharge Diagnosis: Primary: Acute on chronic kidney disease, acute interstitial nephritis, Uremia, Vasculitic skin rash Secondary: Coronary artery disease, diabetes, hyperthyroidism Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Confused - sometimes. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: Worsening renal failure. COMPARISON: ___. UPRIGHT AP VIEW OF THE CHEST: The patient is status post median sternotomy, CABG, and left-sided pacemaker device with leads terminating in the right atrium and right ventricle. Right PICC tip terminates in the region of the SVC. There are low lung volumes. The heart size remains moderate-to-severely enlarged, but the mediastinal contour appears stably widened. There is crowding of the bronchovascular structures, but no overt pulmonary edema is present. Retrocardiac opacity likely reflects atelectasis as does minimal linear opacity within the right lung base. No large pleural effusion or pneumothorax is identified. The right internal jugular central venous catheter has been removed. IMPRESSION: Low lung volumes. Cardiomegaly without pulmonary edema. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ male with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and pacemaker, history of prior CVAs, now with supratherapeutic INR of 4.2 and altered mental status. Assess for intracranial hemorrhage or infarct. ___. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous non-contrast axial images were obtained through the brain, and reconstructed at 5-mm intervals. FINDINGS: There is no acute intracranial hemorrhage, edema, mass effect, or vascular territorial infarct. The ventricles and sulci are prominent, consistent with age-related involutional changes. Multiple periventricular and subcortical white matter hypodensities reflect small vessel ischemic disease. Lacunes are also noted in the bilateral temporal and occipital lobes. There is additional encephalomalacia in the right anterolateral cerebellum, with coarse calcifications suggesting laminar necrosis and/or dystrophic changes. Dense calcifications of the bilateral cavernous carotid and vertebral arteries. Mild pansinus mucosal thickening is present. Prior left sphenoid air-fluid level has resolved. The mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. Orbits and intraconal structures are symmetric. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial process. 2. Chronic atrophy, microvascular changes, and multifocal infarcts. 3. Mild pansinus mucosal thickening, with resolution of prior left sphenoid air-fluid level. Radiology Report INDICATION: A ___ man with renal failure. COMPARISON: Renal ultrasound ___. FINDINGS: The right kidney measures 10.0 cm and the left kidney measures 11.8 cm. There is no hydronephrosis. A simple cyst which measures 1.9 cm is again seen at the lower pole of the left kidney. A simple cyst is also seen at the upper pole of the left kidney measuring 1.5 cm. DOPPLER EXAMINATION: Color Doppler and pulse-wave Doppler images were obtained. Note is made that this is a very limited study of the right kidney only as the patient declined the completion of the exam. This exam is also limited due to the patient's inability to hold his breath. Arterial waveforms are seen in the main right renal artery and in the intraparenchymal arteries of the right kidney. No antegrade diastolic flow can be seen on these waveforms; however, it is unclear whether this finding is related to the technically limited nature of this exam. Venous flow is seen in the main right renal vein. IMPRESSION: 1. No hydronephrosis. Two simple left renal cysts. 2. Arterial and venous flow is seen in the right kidney; however, the Doppler examination is limited as the patient is unable to hold his breath. Note is made that the patient declined to complete the Doppler examination and consequently the exam is very limited and no Doppler images were obtained of the left kidney. Radiology Report INDICATION: Acute renal failure, for emergent dialysis, place temporary line. OPERATORS: Dr. ___, and ___ performed the procedure. Dr. ___ attending radiologist, supervised the procedure. PROCEDURE AND FINDINGS: The patient was brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the angiography table. Written informed consent had previously been obtained from the patient's wife, his healthcare proxy, after thorough discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives. Monitored anesthesia care was administered due to the patient's mental status. A preprocedure timeout was performed using three patient identifiers. The left neck was prepped and draped in usual sterile fashion. 1% buffered lidocaine was instilled in the subcutaneous tissues for local anesthesia. Subsequently, under sonographic guidance, a micropuncture needle was advanced into the patent left internal jugular vein. Pre- and post-venipuncture sonographic images were printed. A 0.018 nitinol wire was advanced through the needle into the superior vena cava. The needle was exchanged for a micropuncture sheath and subsequently the inner dilator and nitinol wire were removed. A short ___ wire was inserted into the micropuncture sheath, but could not be advanced into the inferior vena cava and as a result was exchanged for a 0.035 ___ wire. This was successfully advanced into the inferior vena cava. The ___ wire was exchanged for an Amplatz wire through the use of a 4 ___ Kumpe catheter. Over the Amplatz wire, sequential dilatation was performed with subsequent insertion of a ___ double-lumen 20 cm hemodialysis catheter. Tip was left in the lower SVC with approximately 1 cm of catheter exterior to the venotomy site. Final scout image was obtained demonstrating tip in appropriate position. The line was then aspirated and flushed and secured in position with two single 0 silk interrupted sutures and dressed with a sterile dressing. The patient tolerated the procedure well without immediate post-procedure complication. The line is ready for use. IMPRESSION: Successful insertion of a ___ temporary dialysis catheter in the left internal jugular vein with tip in the lower SVC. The line is ready for use. Radiology Report NON-INVASIVE ARTERIAL STUDY AT REST INDICATION: ___ man with diabetes mellitus, acute renal failure on hemodialysis with vasculitis rash on the lower extremities, presenting with cold toes and nonpalpable, but dopplerable dorsalis pedis pulses. Evaluation for vascular disease. No studies available for comparison. TECHNIQUE: Doppler waveforms, pulse volume recordings, and segmental blood pressures were obtained in lower extremities bilaterally at rest. FINDINGS: There is normal triphasic Doppler waveform at the right common femoral, popliteal, posterior tibial, and dorsalis pedis arteries and at the left common femoral, popliteal, and posterior tibial arteries. There is a monophasic Doppler waveform at the level of the left dorsalis pedis artery. The ABI index on the right is 1.13 and on the left is 1.26. Pulse volume recordings are symmetrical bilaterally.

Mr. ___, you presented to us with worsening rash on your legs and worsening mental status due to your kidneys' inability to clear toxins from your blood. We treated these problems by initially giving you a temporary hemodialysis line and performing hemodialysis to clear some toxins. We also had dermatology evaluate your rash and they felt that a biopsy was not indicated at this time. You were also evaluated by the ophthomology team and they stated that your eyes did not have evidence of cholesterol clots. You began to make urine and your creatinine decreased and we determined that you did not need more hemodialysis at the moment. We made the following changes to your medications: Please START Omeprazole 20mg daily while on steroids START Nephrocaps START Miconazole cream, Hyrdocortisone cream rectally, and Mupriocin cream STOP amitriptyline STOP gabapentin STOP levothyroxine CHANGE PhosLo to 1 tab daily CHANGE Prednisone to 10mg daily CONTINUE Warfarin 5mg daily adjust to INR

Dear Mr. ___, It was a privilege caring for you at ___. You were admitted because you were found on the ground in your apartment. You underwent imaging of your neck and head which did not reveal any fractures. You sustained an injury to your neck "whiplash" which caused swelling at the back of your throat, which made it difficult to swallow. You were kept in a soft collar neck brace for your comfort and should follow up with orthopedics (Dr. ___ in ___ weeks. While the swelling continues to improve, it will remain difficult to swallow. Your diet will be initially restricted to consistencies which decreases the risk that food and drink inappropriately pass down your windpipe instead of your esophagus. While you are having difficulty swallowing, your medications are given crushed in applesauce. Unfortunately your tolcapone cannot be crushed, so while you are unable to take this, we are doubling your dosage of sinemet to prevent worsening ___ symptoms. Once you are able to swallow better again your medications should be changed back to the previous doses. We wish you and your wife a speedy recovery. Best, Your ___ team
Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: pelvic pain Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement History of Present Illness: ___ yo male with advanced prostate cancer, with suprapubic catheter and home hospice care for past month presents with right groin/pelvic pain and renal failure. Per patient and wife, home hospice care had been working well until a few weeks ago, when he started developing constant bladder spasms, right groin pain, and urgency. Oxycontin was converted to methadone, and various anti-spasmodics have been tried; he is currently on Pyridium. This week, his home hospice nurse attempted to replace suprapubic catheter, has since noted drainage of blood tinged fluid from around suprapubic catheter. Continues to have urine output from cath, although minimal over past few days. Approximately 3 days prior to presentation patient noted shaking chills and fever to 100.8, and was started on levofloxacin. On the morning prior to ED presentation, he had worsening symptoms, not relieved with oxycodone, and presented to the ED later on that day. In the ED, urology replaced his suprapubic catheter without complication, and patient was admitted for further evaluation and management. He received morphine 5 mg IV x 3 ED with excellent pain control. Currently, the patient is without complaint, and feels well resting in bed. 12 point ROS as noted above, otherwise negative.

There is bilateral hydronephrosis, mild on the right and mild-to-moderate on the left, which is new from the prior ultrasound. The ureters are not well visualized, and the urinary bladder could not be visualized due to dressing material and the presence of a suprapubic catheter. No renal stones or masses are appreciated. IMPRESSION: New bilateral hydronephrosis, mild on the right and mild to moderate on the left. The urinary bladder could not be assessed. Results were discussed via telephone with ___ by Dr. ___ on ___ at 4:32 p.m. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ man with advanced prostate cancer admitted with renal failure and bilateral hydronephrosis, please place bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy tube. PHYSICIANS: Dr. ___ (radiology fellow), Dr. ___ ___ (radiology attending) who was present throughout and supervised the procedure. MEDICATION: The patient received 100 mcg of fentanyl and 2 mg of Versed in divided doses for a total intraservice time of 1 hour and 3 minutes, during which time the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored. In addition, the patient received 1 g of cefazolin prior to the procedure. RADIATION: 11.1 minutes of fluoroscopy time. PROCEDURE: 1. Bilateral 8 ___ percutaneous nephrostomy placement. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, informed written patient consent was obtained. The patient was brought to the angiographic suite and placed prone on the table. A preprocedure timeout was performed using three patient identifiers. The skin overlying both kidneys was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Initial limited ultrasound demonstrated bilateral hydronephrosis. Approximately 6 cc of 1% lidocaine was infiltrated into the skin and subcutaneous tissues bilaterally prior to accessing the lower pole calices using a Cook 21-gauge needle. Contrast was injected via the needle to confirm access to the collecting system and a nitinol wire was advanced through the needle. A small skin incision was made and an AccuStick sheath was advanced over the needle. On the left side using a combination of a Glidewire and a 5 ___ sheath, we did attempt to access the distal ureter. The proximal ureter was readily navigated; however, the distal ureter was extremely tortuous and although the Glidewire did eventually pass into the bladder, the patient experienced mild discomfort at the sensation. Therefore, we elected not to place a nephroureteral stent at this time. ___ wire was advanced through the AccuStick sheath which was removed and dilatation was performed over the wire with an 8 ___ dilator followed by placement of bilateral 8 ___ nephrostomy tube. Positioning of both tubes was confirmed by injection of a small amount of contrast. Both catheters were sutured to the skin with a 0 silk suture and a Flexi-Trak was also placed for security. Sterile dressings were applied and the catheters were attached to bag for free drainage. There were no immediate post-procedure complications. IMPRESSION: 1. Technically successful placement of bilateral 8 ___ nephrostomy tube. 2. Tortuous distal left ureter consistent with extrinsic compression.

Subsequently, helically acquired rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during the infusion of 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 16.0 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 50.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 802.7 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 5.5 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 59.9 mGy (Head) DLP = 30.0 mGy-cm. 3) Spiral Acquisition 2.5 s, 19.7 cm; CTDIvol = 30.0 mGy (Head) DLP = 592.2 mGy-cm. 4) Spiral Acquisition 5.1 s, 39.8 cm; CTDIvol = 31.1 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,238.4 mGy-cm. 5) Sequenced Acquisition 16.0 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 50.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 802.7 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 3,466 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Brain MR and MRA ___. Head CT ___. FINDINGS: CT head: Evolving right basal ganglia intraparenchymal hematoma appears overall unchanged measuring approximately 2.2 x 2.1 cm. Surrounding edema which extends inferiorly into the right temporal lobe is overall unchanged or minimally increased from the most recent CT given differences in scan. Similarly mass effect of the right lateral ventricle is overall unchanged. Minimal 1-2 mm of leftward midline shift appears minimally increased. The basal cisterns are patent. Slight asymmetric prominence of the temporal horn of the right lateral ventricle with trace surrounding edema may be minimally increased suggesting trapping with very mild hydrocephalus versus extension the existing edema (08:12). No new intracranial hemorrhage or definite infarct. CTA head: Patent circle ___ and ___ tributaries. There is narrowing and irregularity dense calcification of the right greater than left vertebral artery V4 segment with moderate focal narrowing on the right and are widely patent distally. Dural venous sinuses are patent. Atherosclerotic calcification the supraclinoid internal carotid arteries bilaterally causes mild narrowing on the left. CTV neck: Bolus timing moderately limits evaluation. Crossing the right carotid bifurcation, a metallic stent demonstrates intraluminal enhancement and unchanged vessel caliber proximal and distal to it suggesting patency. Within the limits of the study, the visualized carotid and vertebral arteries appear patent. OTHER: The visualized portion of the lungs are clear. The visualized portion of the thyroid gland is within normal limits. There is no lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. IMPRESSION: 1. Evolving right putaminal and adjacent white matter hematoma with edema and mass-effect. The edema appears unchanged to slightly more prominent compared to ___ but markedly increased since ___. 2. Limited view of the neck due to bolus timing. The vertebral and internal carotid arteries appear patent but are not well characterized. 3. Right carotid stent in place with apparent patency of the vessel.

Axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T2 technique were then obtained. COMPARISON MRI and MRA of the brain from ___ and CTA of the head and neck from ___ FINDINGS: Redemonstration of evolution of the putaminal intraparenchymal hematoma which appears unchanged from the prior CT, measuring approximately 2.3 x 2.1 cm (AP X TR). There is surrounding edema that extends inferiorly into the right temporal lobe, unchanged from the most recent prior CT. There is similar mass effect on the right lateral ventricle with partial effacement and 1 to 2 mm leftward midline shift, unchanged. The basal cisterns remain patent. There is no crowding at the level of the foramen magnum. There is no evidence of new hemorrhage. There is mild mucosal thickening in the left maxillary sinus. The remainder of the paranasal sinuses mastoid air cells appears clear. The orbits appear grossly unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. Evolution of the right putamen hematoma with surrounding edema, unchanged from the most recent prior CT but increased from initial presentation. 2. No significant change of mild 1-2 mm leftward midline shift with partial effacement of the right lateral ventricle and mild asymmetric prominence of the temporal horn of the right lateral ventricle. 3.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ female with abdominal pain and tenderness. Evaluate for small bowel obstruction. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Upright and supine views of the abdomen were obtained. There is gaseous distention of a few loops of small bowel. A few air-fluid levels are identified in the left lower quadrant on the upright view. Oral contrast is present in the large bowel, which is non-distended. No pneumatosis or pneumoperitoneum. A 5-mm nodular opacity overlies the left base. Several surgical clips overlie the right upper abdomen. IMPRESSION: 1. Nonspecific bowel gas pattern without definite evidence of obstruction. 2. 5-mm nodular opacity overlying the left base should be further evaluated with conventional chest radiographs. Findings were communicated via phone call by Dr. ___ to Dr. ___ ___ on ___ at 0756 am. Radiology Report HISTORY: Gastric bypass. Now acute abdominal pain, question free air, opacity. CHEST, TWO VIEWS: No previous chest x-rays on PACS record for comparison. Possible hyperinflation, consistent with COPD. The heart is not enlarged. There is no CHF, focal infiltrate, or gross effusion. There is slight blunting of the left and ? right costophrenic angle posteriorly. At the periphery of these films, fusion hardware in the cervical spine is incompletely imaged. No free air detected beneath the diaphragm. No dilated loops of bowel are identified in the visualized portion of the upper abdomen. Increased density in the splenic flexure of the colon suggests oral contrast. Surgical clips are also noted at the level of the diaphragm posteriorly. IMPRESSION: 1) No acute pulmonary process identified. 2) No free air detected beneath the diaphragm. Radiology Report INDICATION: History of gastric bypass with recurrent abdominal pain. Assess for presence of ulcer at anastomosis, biliary duct dilatation, pancreatic pathology, or hernia with strangulation at incision site. COMPARISON: None. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis following the administration of both oral and intravenous contrast material. A total of 150 cc of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material was administered. Multiplanar reformats were performed. The total DLP is 883 mGy-cm. ABDOMEN CT: There is minimal dependent bilateral lower lobe atelectasis. The liver may be slightly hypodense, possibly indicating fat deposition. No focal liver lesions are seen. There is mild central intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation. The common duct is dilated, measuring up to 13 mm, although tapers to a normal caliber at the level of the pancreatic head (300B:29). There is no evidence of an intra- or periductal mass. The portal vein is patent. The patient is status post cholecystectomy. The spleen is mildly enlarged, measuring up to 13.9 cm in its greatest axial dimension. The spleen is otherwise unremarkable. The pancreas is normal, without evidence of ductal dilatation. The adrenal glands are normal. The kidneys are unremarkable, with symmetric excretion of intravenous contrast material. The patient is status post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. A large quantity of oral contrast material is seen within the excluded stomach and duodenum, as well as within the proximal portion of the pancreatobiliary limb but with no contrast within the distal portion of the pancreatobiliary limb, signifying a likely communication between the gastric pouch and the remnant stomach. Patulousness of several contrast filled loops of small bowel in the mid right abdomen is noted without transition point, likely the result of this segment of bowel being filled with oral contrast material. Oral contrast material passes into the colon, which is normal in appearance. There is no evidence of bowel obstruction or wall thickening. No free fluid or free air is seen in the abdomen. There are no pathologically enlarged abdominal lymph nodes. The abdominal aorta is normal in caliber. Scattered aortic calcifications are noted. Surgical clips are seen within the central mesentery. PELVIS CT: The bladder is unremarkable. The uterus and adnexa are grossly normal. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. No pathologically enlarged pelvic lymph nodes are seen. BONE WINDOW: A 15-mm sclerotic lesion within the right iliac bone (2:71) is likely a bone island. Additional scattered smaller sclerotic lesions are seen throughout the pelvis, also most consistent with bone islands. Multilevel degenerative changes of the thoracolumbar spine are noted, most severe at L4-L5 and L5-S1. Small metallic densities overlying and within the right paraspinous musculature are of uncertain etiology (___). IMPRESSION: 1. Large quantity of oral contrast material within the excluded stomach, without clear evidence of reflux via the pancreatobiliary limb, indicating a likely communication between the gastric pouch and excluded stomach. Further evaluation could be performed with direct visualization or an upper GI barium study. 3. Extrahepatic and central intrahepatic biliary ductal dilation, without evidence of an obstructing lesion, a finding that can be seen in patients who have undergone prior cholecystectomy, although correlation with right upper quadrant abdominal pain and LFT's is recommended. Further evaluation could be performed with MRCP, if clinically indicated. 3. Possible hepatic steatosis. 4. Mild splenomegaly.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CHEST (PORTABLE AP) INDICATION: ___ with ETOH cirrhosis here w/ possible PVT// r/o infection COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: AP portable upright view of the chest provided. Lung volumes are slightly low bilaterally. There is no focal consolidation, effusion, or pneumothorax. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is normal. Imaged osseous structures are intact. No free air below the right hemidiaphragm is seen. IMPRESSION: No acute cardiopulmonary process. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MRI of the Abdomen INDICATION: Ms. ___ is a ___ y/o female with HCV s/p treatment, EtOH cirrhosis c/b ascites, varices, and HE, and recent admission for alcoholic hepatitis who presents as a transfer for portal vein thrombosis.// eval portal vein thrombosis TECHNIQUE: T1- and T2-weighted multiplanar images of the abdomen were acquired in a 1.5 T magnet. Intravenous contrast: 8 mL Gadavist. COMPARISON: MRCP from ___. FINDINGS: Lower Thorax: No pleural effusion or focal consolidation. No pericardial effusion. Liver: Fat fraction of 8.7%, consistent with mild steatosis. Heterogeneous arterial enhancement also suggests acute or active component to parenchymal disease. The liver is mildly nodular in contour, there is hypertrophy of the left lobe in keeping with cirrhosis. There is mild-to-moderate ascites in the upper abdomen. The pelvis was not imaged. There is no evidence of any highly suspicious liver nodule, no abnormal enhancement. A small hypoenhancing focus is found in the left lateral segments measuring only 8 mm on delayed images only (84: 84). It is not found on the last contrast-enhanced series but the latter is affected by motion artifact. It correlates to a slightly hypointense lesion on T2-weighted images but is otherwise isointense and/or inconspicous on all other sequences. The portal vein is unremarkable and is of normal size without evidence of thrombus or occlusion. Biliary: No intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile duct dilation. The walls of the gall bladder are thickened, likely due to the presence of ascites and liver disease. There is no gallstone. Pancreas: The pancreas is unremarkable. The main pancreatic duct is not dilated. Spleen: There is splenomegaly, the spleen measures 15.2 cm. Adrenal Glands: The adrenal glands are unremarkable. Kidneys: There is bilateral symmetrical nephrogram. There is an 8 mm simple appearing cyst in the right kidney. The left kidney is unremarkable. There is no hydronephrosis. Gastrointestinal Tract: The stomach and visualized bowel are unremarkable without dilation or significant wall thickening. Lymph Nodes: Mildly prominent retroperitoneal nodes, are probably due to underlying liver disease. Vasculature: There is conventional hepatic arterial anatomy. The portal and hepatic veins are patent. There are left large esophageal and paraesophageal varices as well as collateral vessels arising from the falciform ligament, possibly including umbilical vein in addition to others. Varices are also prominent along gastric cardia. Osseous and Soft Tissue Structures: There is no evidence of suspicious bony lesion. IMPRESSION: Cirrhosis, portal hypertension and splenomegaly without any evidence of portal vein thrombosis. Newly developed liver steatosis, not present on ___. Mild to moderate ascites. Very small low suspicious liver lesion in the lateral segments which is amenable to consideration of attention in followup.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis. INDICATION: dx gi malignancy with mets to liver,fevers,rule out intra-abdominal abcess // dx gi malignancy with mets to liver,fevers,rule out intra-abdominal abcess TECHNIQUE: Single phase split bolus contrast: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis following intravenous contrast administration with split bolus technique. IV Contrast: 130 mL Omnipaque. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. Oral contrast was administered. DOSE: This study involved 5 CT acquisition phases with dose indices as follows: 1) CT Localizer Radiograph 2) CT Localizer Radiograph 3) Sequenced Acquisition 0.5 s, 0.2 cm; CTDIvol = 9.3 mGy (Body) DLP = 1.9 mGy-cm. 4) Stationary Acquisition 14.5 s, 0.2 cm; CTDIvol = 246.4 mGy (Body) DLP = 49.3 mGy-cm. 5) Spiral Acquisition 5.1 s, 61.1 cm; CTDIvol = 5.0 mGy (Body) DLP = 278.8 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 330 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT from ___. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: There is focal consolidation within the medial right lower lobe, aspiration pneumonitis is a possibility. Stable 8 mm cardiophrenic lymph node. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Again visualized is a large lobulated heterogeneously enhancing mass in the right lobe of the liver. It appears overall unchanged in size when compared to previous,measuring 12.6 x 6.6 by 7.7 cm. There has been interval placement of percutaneous internal external biliary drainage catheters, traversing both the right as well as the left main ducts with the internal component terminating appropriately within the duodenum. There is interval development of a new bilobed fluid ___ lesion along the left biliary drainage catheter measuring approximately 6.3 cm in total length with 2 bulbous components measuring 2.0 x 1.9 and 1.8 x 2.7. This likely represents a bilobed biloma. A second new hypodense lesion is seen in segment ___ (07:33) measuring approximately 1.8 by 1.4 by 4.0 cm (AP by trans by CC). A third lesion is seen more cranially, in segment 7 measuring 1.7 x 2.2 cm (05:17). These latter 2 lesions likely represent additional bilomas versus metastatic lesions. Although cholangitic abscesses are a possibility, they do not have a rim enhancement pattern to suggest the same. A new linear hypodense lesion is seen at the periphery of segment 6. It measures 1.9 cm in length and 4 mm in thickness, and may represent postprocedural changes, possibly a needle tract. There is persistent dilatation of left hepatic lobe (segment 3 posterior and segment 2) bile ducts. Segment 7 and 8 ducts also remain moderately dilated, slightly prominent than before. There is narrowing of the right proximal portal vein, however it remains patent. PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of focal lesions or pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic stranding. 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: A 1.6 cm lesion is seen within the right kidney, at the mid polar region is unchanged from previous. Although no precontrast images available, it does have some internal density suggestive of internal enhancement, and is concerning for small renal cell carcinoma. This could be further evaluated with dedicated non urgent ultrasound or MRI after the acute episode resolves. There are multiple bilateral simple appearing renal cysts, unchanged from previous. GASTROINTESTINAL: The appendix is mildly thickening measuring up to 8 mm. This appearance however is unchanged when compared to previous, there is no significant periappendiceal fat stranding. Focal appendicitis is unlikely. First there is concentric wall thickening of the hepatic flexure of the colon with an exophytic component of the mass closely abutting the hepatic flexure (07:18) suspicious for invasion of the hepatic flexure of the colon. No bowel obstruction noted. A 1.0 cm portacaval lymph node is once again seen, unchanged from previous. PELVIS: The urinary bladder and distal ureters are unremarkable. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: There are 3 fiducial markers within the prostate. LYMPH NODES: There is a 1 cm necrotic lymph node anterior to the IVC (05:37). VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. Mild atherosclerotic disease is noted. BONES AND SOFT TISSUES: There is linear calcification/ossification noted posterior to the right acetabulum within the right gluteus minimus muscles. This was not seen on prior examinations, and may represent focal myositis ossificans. Divarication of recti noted. There is a small fat containing umbilical hernia as before. Focal lucency is seen at the posterior aspect of the T12 vertebral body, unchanged from previous. IMPRESSION: 1. At least 3 new hypodensities noted within the liver, 1 of which is adjacent to the recently inserted left-sided biliary drainage catheter with additional months in segment ___ and segment 7 respectively, likely represent bilomas. These do not have enhancement pattern suggestive of cholangitic abscesses. 2. Residual dilatation of the intrahepatic biliary ducts as described above, post placement of bilateral internal external percutaneous biliary drains. Underlying cholangitis cannot be excluded. 3. Right lower lobe subsegmental consolidation as detailed above, concerning for focal aspiration pneumonitis. 4. The large heterogeneously enhancing mass in the right lobe of the liver compatible with the known tumor appears more solid on today's exam. There is an exophytic component of the tumor that appears to be invading the hepatic flexure of the colon, there is however no bowel obstruction. 5. Revisualization of the solid 1.7 cm renal lesion within the right kidney, suspicious for renal cell carcinoma. 6. Stable lucency at the T12 vertebral body, which should eventually be evaluated with a bone scan as previously recommended.

Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to ___ for abdominal pain and diarrhea. While you were here your kidney function was found to be worsened, likely because you were not eating or drinking very much while also having diarrhea. This improved with IV fluid, encouraging you to drink more, and medications to improve the diarrhea. You were started on a medicaton called tincture of opium which has improved your diarrhea. You should continue this medication until you speak with Dr. ___. We evaluated the swelling of your neck, which was not caused by a problem with your blood vessels. An ultrasound was performed which did not show enlarged lymph nodes but instead an odd fat distribution. You can follow up with Dr. ___ this. Please return to the hospital if you discover you cannot tolerate eating or drinking or your diarrhea severely worsens from your baseline.

History is limited by patient participation. Patient by report had not been feeling well since early this weak, he describes overall weakness as well as some low-level nausea. He also endorses a recent headache. A concerned neighbor called for EMS and patient was brought to ___ ED for further evaluation and treatment. In the ED, initial vital signs were: 97.8 80 139/88 18 99% RA - Labs were notable for: INR >13.1 -> 11.6 PTT 107.5 ___ 150 Prolatctin 7.7 Mg 1.5 VBG ___ UA: 46RBCs, 30 Prot, 300 Glu Upon arrival, patient was noted to be quite lethargic and slow to respond. Head imaging subsequently obtained showed a 3.5x 1.3cm hyperdensity in the sella eroding into the sphenoid sinus (see below). Neurosurgery was consulted and recommended INR reversal and admission to medicine for further work-up, no acute indication for surgical intervention. - Studies performed include: MRI BRAIN 1. Study was prematurely aborted due to significant pain and claustrophobia experienced by the patient. 2. Large expansile pituitary mass that erodes the sphenoid sinuses anteriorly, suspicious for a probably hemorrhagic invasive macroadenoma. 3. Additional 5.5 x 1.1 cm plaque-like lesion extending from the prepontine cistern inferiorly to the foramen magnum is likely a separate entity, may represent a meningioma. 4. MRI brain with contrast is required for further characterization of both findings. NCCTH 1. 3.5 x 1.3 cm hyperdense expansile mass in the sella eroding through the roof of the sphenoid sinus, which may reflect a pituitary mass. Dedicated MRI the sella is recommended for further characterization. 2. No intracranial hemorrhage. 3. Paranasal sinus disease. Please correlate with clinical findings. CXR INDINGS: Cardiac silhouette size is moderately enlarged but similar compared to the prior exam. The mediastinal and hilar contours are not substantially changed in the interval.

No new enhancing lesions. No compromise of the ICAs. 2. The macro adenoma extends into the sphenoid sinus below with associated mucosal thickening/air-fluid level in the left sphenoid sinus. Please note that a CSF leak cannot be excluded, but this may also be due to retained mucus in the sinus due to narrowing of the left sign and ostium. 3. No significant stenosis by NASCET criteria of the imaged carotid arteries. MICROBIOLOGY Urine culture negative ___ BCx negative ___ ___ MRI w/ and w/o contrast IMPRESSION: 1. Motion limited exam. 2. Large lobulated sellar mass invading the medial portions of bilateral sphenoid sinuses, with mild extension to the left cavernous sinus and abutment of the left ICA without evidence for narrowing, and with mild retro clival extension. Subacute blood products in the left superior sellar component of the mass. 3. In addition to the mild retro clival extension of the sellar mass, there is a larger retro clival nonenhancing signal abnormality from the dorsum sellae to the top of the dens, with small amount of layering subacute blood products at the level of the craniocervical junction. Given the presence of subacute blood products in the sellar mass, this may represent a chronic hematoma. 4. While the retro clival abnormality compatible with hematoma effaces the prepontine and pre medullary cisterns, there is no compression of the brainstem and no significant mass effect on the cervicomedullary junction.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD WANDW/O C AND RECONSQ1213CTHEAD INDICATION: ___ year old man with afib on warfarin and DM2 presenting with pituitary mass and supratherapeutic INR// Please perform CTA with EEA protocol to further characterize pituitary mass TECHNIQUE: Contiguous MDCT axial images were obtained through the brain without contrast material. Next, rapid axial imaging was performed through the brain during the uneventful infusion of mL of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered and segmented images were then generated on a dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 7.0 s, 28.0 cm; CTDIvol = 46.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,307.8 mGy-cm. 2) Spiral Acquisition 3.9 s, 30.5 cm; CTDIvol = 27.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 840.8 mGy-cm. 3) Spiral Acquisition 3.9 s, 30.8 cm; CTDIvol = 27.6 mGy (Head) DLP = 849.0 mGy-cm. 4) Stationary Acquisition 3.5 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 43.4 mGy (Head) DLP = 21.7 mGy-cm. 5) Stationary Acquisition 5.6 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 68.3 mGy (Head) DLP = 34.1 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 3,053 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Prior CTA done ___ and MRI a done ___ FINDINGS: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST: Re-demonstration of a hyperdense expansile avidly enhancing mass (2, 31) in the sella invading through the region of the sphenoid sinus. No obvious focal areas of non enhancement. There is mild thickening of the infundibulum. Again demonstrated is mucosal thickening of the left sphenoid sinus +/- fluid/mucous resulting in an air fluid level. The ostium of the left sphenoid sinus is narrowed, which is likely related to expansion of the mass arising from the sella. Mild suprasellar extension without contact with the optic chiasm, was better seen on MRI performed ___. No involvement of the internal carotid arteries. There is no evidence of large territorial infarction, hemorrhage, or edema. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci suggestive of involutional changes. Bilateral periventricular, subcortical, and deep white matter hypodensities are nonspecific but most likely represent sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemic changes. The visualized portion the bilateral mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion the bilateral orbits are unremarkable. The vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches appear normal with no evidence of stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm. The basilar artery terminates as the superior cerebellar arteries. Bilateral fetal origin of the PCAs. The dural venous sinuses are patent. Significant dental disease, most extensive in posterior-most right maxillary molar and posterior most right mandibular molar with osseous resorption surrounding the ___ be from extensive periodontal disease or infection; extension of periodontal disease is more likely. No surrounding rim enhancing collection to suggest periodontal abscess. Consider dental consult. IMPRESSION: 1. Re-demonstration of the precontrast hyperdense pituitary macroadenoma which shows fairly diffuse enhancement postcontrast. No new enhancing lesions. No compromise of the ICAs. 2. The macro adenoma extends into the sphenoid sinus below with associated mucosal thickening/air-fluid level in the left sphenoid sinus. Please note that a CSF leak cannot be excluded, but this may also be due to retained mucus in the sinus due to narrowing of the left sign and ostium. 3. No significant stenosis by NASCET criteria of the imaged carotid arteries. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old man with insulin-dependent diabetes, atrial fibrillation on Coumadin, presenting with headache and ear pain, found to have a pituitary mass. Pituitary views to evaluate pituitary mass. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1 weighted, and axial T1 weighted, T2 weighted, FLAIR, gradient echo, and diffusion-weighted images of the brain were obtained. Following intravenous gadolinium administration, axial T1 weighted images of the brain and sagittal MPRAGE images of the brain with multiplanar reformations were obtained. COMPARISON: Incomplete pituitary MRI, ___. CTA head and neck, ___. Head CT, ___. FINDINGS: Postcontrast MP RAGE images are severely degraded by motion artifact despite 2 acquisition attempts. Multiple other sequences are mildly or moderately limited by motion artifact. There is no acute infarction. There is no edema, mass effect, or evidence for blood products in the brain parenchyma. There are extensive confluent T2 hyperintensities in the subcortical, deep, and periventricular white matter of the cerebral hemispheres, nonspecific but most likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease given the patient's cardiovascular risk factors. There is mild tumor global parenchymal volume loss with prominent ventricles and sulci. The previously seen pituitary mass is not optimally imaged in the absence of dedicated high-resolution precontrast and postcontrast coronal and sagittal T1 weighted images through the sella, and given the severe motion degradation of the postcontrast MP RAGE images. The ___ pituitary MRI is incomplete as the patient could not tolerate postcontrast imaging. Again seen is a large lobulated mass extending from the sella into the medial portions of bilateral maxillary sinuses, which measures 2.7 cm AP x 1.7 cm craniocaudad on image 2:13 and 2.9 cm transverse on image 3:10. The mass demonstrates heterogenous contrast enhancement. The left superior sellar component of the mass demonstrates high signal on precontrast T1 weighted images with low signal on T2 weighted and gradient echo images, as well as relative ___ on the prior CT, compatible with subacute blood products. There is no mass effect on the optic chiasm. Prior incomplete pituitary MRI better demonstrates that the mass extends into the left cavernous sinus and abuts the cavernous left internal carotid artery, without evidence for flow void narrowing. In addition, there is an extra-axial retro clival abnormality extending from the dorsum sellae to the top of the dens, which measures 5.7 cm craniocaudad by 0.8 cm AP on sagittal image 02:13, and up to 2.2 cm transverse on image 14:8. Sagittal reformatted images of the ___ CT demonstrate linear calcification along the upper dorsal margin of this abnormality. The superior ventral portion of this abnormality, abutting the dorsum sellae and upper clivus, demonstrates heterogenous high and low signal on T1 weighted images with apparent contrast enhancement on postcontrast images, images 2:13, 12:89, 3:8, 10:8, as well as intermediate T2 signal on image 14:8, suggesting retroclival extension of the sellar mass. The remainder of this abnormality demonstrates low signal on T1 weighted images and high signal on T2 weighted images, without evidence for significant contrast enhancement. In the inferior aspect of this abnormality at the level of the craniocervical junction, there is a small amount of layering T2 hypointensity and T1 hyperintensity with blooming artifact on gradient echo images (14:3, 3:3, 13:3), consistent with layering subacute blood products. While the prepontine and pre medullary cisterns are effaced, there is no compression of the brainstem or fourth ventricle. Ventral CSF space in the foramen magnum is narrowed but not completely effaced. Dorsal CSF space in the foramen magnum is preserved. There is mild mucosal thickening in the ethmoid air cells and left greater than right maxillary sinuses. In addition to invasion of the sphenoid sinuses by the above-described sellar mass, there is also fluid in the left maxillary sinus and mild mucosal thickening in bilateral maxillary sinuses. IMPRESSION: 1. Motion limited exam. 2. Large lobulated sellar mass invading the medial portions of bilateral sphenoid sinuses, with mild extension to the left cavernous sinus and abutment of the left ICA without evidence for narrowing, and with mild retro clival extension. Subacute blood products in the left superior sellar component of the mass. 3. In addition to the mild retro clival extension of the sellar mass, there is a larger retro clival nonenhancing signal abnormality from the dorsum sellae to the top of the dens, with small amount of layering subacute blood products at the level of the craniocervical junction. Given the presence of subacute blood products in the sellar mass, this may represent a chronic hematoma. 4. While the retro clival abnormality compatible with hematoma effaces the prepontine and pre medullary cisterns, there is no compression of the brainstem and no significant mass effect on the cervicomedullary junction.

Dear Mr. ___, You came to the hospital at ___ because you were feeling unwell and had low blood sugar. You were found to have a mass in the middle of your brain, called a pituitary macroadenoma. You were seen by neurosurgery, who recommended an outpatient follow up along with ENT (ear nose and throat surgeons) follow-up with discussion for possible surgery. Because this tumor presses on and damages areas that release certain hormones, you required replacement hormones and will need to continue these when you leave. See the rest of your paperwork for these changes. You should follow up with endocrinology after you leave the hospital. **You will need to have your labs checked on ___ before your endocrinology appointment. Please go to ___, these labs are ordered for you** When you initially came to the hospital, your INR (warfarin level) was very high. We stopped this and put you on an injection blood thinner until your level normalized. You were discharged on warfarin again and will need to follow up VERY CLOSELY with your primary care doctor to ensure that this level does not get high again. High INRs can result in severe bleeding!! You will need your INR checked ONCE A WEEK at the ___ ___ above ___. We adjusted your insulin because one of your new medications, hydrocortisone, can make your sugars higher than normal. It was a pleasure participating in your care. We wish you all the best in the future. Sincerely, Your ___ team

Dear ___, ___ were hospitalized due to symptoms of left sided weakness resulting from an ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE, a condition where a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot. The brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms. We saw on MRI that ___ had a small stroke (not a TIA) that caused your weakness. This was most likely caused by small vessel disease, which is from high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol. We stopped your aspirin, started Plavix, which is similar to aspirin, and increased your atorvastatin to decrease your risk of stroke in the future. ___ will have physical therapy at home per physical therapy recommendations. Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed ___ for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: high blood pressure diabetes atherosclerosis of your blood vessels high cholesterol We are changing your medications as follows: stop aspirin start Plavix (clopidogrel) 75 mg daily increase atorvastatin to 80 mg nightly Please take your other medications as prescribed. Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician. If ___ experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - Sudden partial or complete loss of vision - Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to ___ - Sudden weakness of one side of the body - Sudden drooping of one side of the face - Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body Sincerely, Your ___ Neurology Team

Ms. ___, You were admitted to the antepartum service for nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. You were observed in the hospital for several days. Because you were unable to tolerate sufficient amount of nutrition, you were started on tube feeds. You received tube feeding for about a week, and subsequently you were able to tolerate some oral intake. You were not able to tolerate full amounts of normal nutrition, however we felt it would be helpful for you to trial being at home to see if that would help with your oral intake. Thus the tube was removed and we made a plan for close outpatient ___. As you recover from this acute episode of worsened nausea, it is important to take small sips and small bites of bland food when feeling nauseous. The most important thing is to stay hydrated, and you can do this by taking small sips of water or gatorade. The following medications are very helpful for nausea and vomiting of pregnancy: *Zofran (can take 3 times daily) *Pyridoxine (can take 4 times daily) *Doxylamine (to be taken at night) *Zantac (twice daily) In addition, while in the hospital, we addressed the following issues: 1. Adrenal insuffiency: While you were in the hospital you received stress dose steroids for your adrenal insufficiency. The endocrinology team felt it was safe for you to go home on the regular dose. If you start feeling sick again and cannot tolerate oral medication, you can take an intramuscular injection of hydrocortisone. You have been prescribed hydrocortisone in order to do this. Please ___ with Dr. ___, as detailed in the ___ instructions. 2. Chronic narcotic use: Regarding your narcotic use, you were continued on a fentanyl patch.

The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without evidence of dissection or intramural hematoma. The heart, pericardium, and great vessels are within normal limits. No pericardial effusion is seen. AXILLA, HILA, AND MEDIASTINUM: There are multiple prominent appearing mediastinal lymph nodes, measuring up to 1.0 cm (series 3: Image 72) in the prevascular region. In the subcarinal region there is suggestion of underlying adenopathy measuring 1.5 cm by 2.4 cm (2:53) though exact measurements is difficult given similar attenuation of the adjacent pleural effusion with this density. 8 mm lymph node seen adjacent to the upper esophagus. No axillary or hilar lymphadenopathy is present. No mediastinal mass. PLEURAL SPACES: There are bilateral dependent, layering, nonhemorrhagic pleural effusions, moderate on the right and small on the left. There is no evidence of pneumothorax. LUNGS/AIRWAYS: The diffuse ground-glass opacities in the bilateral lungs, right-greater-than-left, which are concerning for asymmetric mild-to-moderate pulmonary edema. The airways are patent to the level of the segmental bronchi bilaterally. BASE OF NECK: Visualized portions of the base of the neck show no abnormality. ABDOMEN: Included portion of the upper abdomen is unremarkable. BONES: Mild degenerative changes are seen in the thoracic spine. No suspicious osseous abnormality is seen.? There is no acute fracture. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism to the segmental level or aortic abnormality. 2.

Next, rapid axial imaging was performed through the brain during the uneventful infusion of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic volume rendered and segmented images were then generated on a dedicated workstation. This report is based on interpretation of all of these images. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 16.0 s, 16.0 cm; CTDIvol = 50.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 802.7 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 2.5 s, 0.5 cm; CTDIvol = 27.2 mGy (Head) DLP = 13.6 mGy-cm. 3) Spiral Acquisition 2.7 s, 21.2 cm; CTDIvol = 30.0 mGy (Head) DLP = 637.3 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 1,454 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Outside hospital CT head ___. FINDINGS: CT HEAD: Again seen is a large, left frontal intraparenchymal hematoma which appears grossly unchanged from the previous examination, allowing for mild interval evolution and differences in patient positioning. Again, there is surrounding vasogenic edema with mass effect and partial effacement of the anterior horn of the left lateral greater than right lateral ventricles. Additionally, there is rightward bowing of the anterior falx by approximately 5 mm, similar to the previous examination. Layering intraventricular hemorrhage is noted within the bilateral occipital horns. Additionally, there is a 5 mm thick focus of subdural hematoma along the anterior left temporal lobe extending superiorly overlying the frontal lobe, also similar from the previous examination. No new sites of acute intracranial hemorrhage are identified. No evidence for acute vascular territorial infarction. The remainder of the ventricles and sulci are grossly unremarkable in appearance. The basal cisterns are patent. There is no evidence for impending downward herniation at this time. The paranasal sinuses, middle ear cavities, and mastoid air cells are clear. The orbits are grossly unremarkable bilaterally. CTA HEAD: There is a left sided dominant vertebrobasilar system, with the right V4 segment terminating in the ___, a normal variant. Allowing for this, the visualized vertebral arteries are patent bilaterally. The basilar artery is patent and unremarkable. The visualized portions of the internal carotid arteries are patent bilaterally. Mild right and moderate left calcifications are seen within the cavernous segments of the ICAs. There are bilateral fetal origins of the posterior cerebral arteries, also a normal variant. No evidence for high-grade stenosis or vessel occlusion. No sites of aneurysm formation greater than 3 mm. The anterior cerebral arteries are mildly displaced towards the right secondary to the patient's large intraparenchymal hematoma. No evidence for focal stenosis or occlusion. The dural venous sinuses remain patent. IMPRESSION: 1. Unchanged findings of a large frontal intraparenchymal hemorrhage with surrounding edema, local mass effect, and rightward bowing of the anterior falx. 2. New, layering intraventricular hemorrhage within the bilateral occipital horns. 3. Stable appearance of a small subdural hematoma along the anterior left temporal and frontal lobes. 4.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST ___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old woman with IPH, concern for tumor vs trauma// r/o tumor 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: CTA head ___ FINDINGS: 5.9 x 3.8 cm the left frontal intraparenchymal hemorrhage is again demonstrated causing effacement of frontal horns of the lateral ventricles bilaterally. The hemorrhage may have slightly increased in size from the CT examination of 1 day prior. Postcontrast examination demonstrates mild peripheral scattered curvilinear and rounded foci within the periphery of the hematoma, likely reactive in nature without evidence of definitive underlying mass. Hemorrhage product in the occipital horns of the lateral ventricles are re-identified. The superimposed periventricular and subcortical mild T2/FLAIR white matter hyperintensities are nonspecific, but compatible with chronic microangiopathy in a patient of this age. The major intracranial flow voids are preserved. No evidence for interval acute infarct. The dural venous sinuses are patent. Mild mucosal thickening of the ethmoid air cells. The remainder the paranasal sinuses are essentially clear. The orbits are unremarkable. The mastoid air cells appear clear. IMPRESSION: 1. 5.9 cm left frontal intraparenchymal hematoma appears slightly increased in size compared to 1 day ago. No definitive underlying enhancing mass lesion is identified.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure to care for you. You were hospitalized due to your symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. A CT scan showed inflammation of your large intestine. Based on the sigmoidoscopy (looking at your large intestine with a camera), we believe you have ischemic colitis, which is inflammation of your large intestine due to decreased blood supply, which may have been caused by a drop in blood pressure during your recent surgery. Please drink plenty of fluids to stay well hydrated, avoid NSAIDs (such as Advil/ibuprofen and Aleve/naproxen) and continue a low residue diet. If you are concerned about dehydration, you can use pedialyte for hydration. Please follow up with GI for a colonoscopy to evaluate healing of the large intestine.

Patient reports acute onset of substernal chest pain waking him from sleep at 2 AM the morning of presentation. Pain felt like a constant pressure rated ___ in severity. It radiated down both arms Right>Left and to his jaw. Pain was associated with diaphoresis. He denied nausea or shortness of breath. At 545 am he called his nephew to bring him to the ED. Initially upon questioning, patient denied prior episodes of chest pain; however, on further reflection, he says at times he has fleeting pain associated with shortness of breath on exertion. He reportedly had chest pain before in ___ that occurred while walking and associated with some shortness of breath and diaphoresis. At that time, he underwent a nuclear stress (exercised 7 mins on modified ___, ___ METS) with no anginal symptoms, no ECG changes, and normal perfusion imaging. In the ED, initial vitals were T 98 HR 70 BP 182/84 RR 18 SaO2 100%. He was given ASA 324 mg and SL nitro. ECG showed normal sinus rhytm with ST depressions in V2-V4. Troponin was 0.10. CXR showed no acute process. He was started on a heparin drip and taken directly to the catheterization laboratory due to concern for a posterior STEMI. In the cath lab, he was also loaded with prasugrel and received a bare metal stent to OM1. He was also noted to have left main disease, felt not to be clinically significant currently. ECG after PCI showed resolution of ST depressions. On arrival to the floor, patient was chest pain free. He was requesting food.
