ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Pneumobilia again noted with a PTBD in place. The tip of the biliary drain resides within the duodenum. New from prior exam, is a peripherally enhancing subcapsular fluid collection abutting the left hepatic lobe anteriorly best seen on series 602b, image 36 measuring 1.2 x 2.2 x 2.4 cm. The biliary drain courses through this collection. There is a similar mild prominence of the intrahepatic biliary tree. Main portal vein is patent. Gallbladder is surgically absent. PANCREAS: Pancreas appears normal. SPLEEN: The spleen is normal. ADRENALS: Adrenals are normal. URINARY: Kidneys enhance symmetrically and excrete shin of contrast is prompt and equal. No signs of hydronephrosis, pyelonephritis or worrisome renal lesion. No perinephric abnormality. GASTROINTESTINAL: Patient has undergone a prior Roux-en-Y a gastric bypass with no signs of anastomotic obstruction. The excluded stomach is mostly decompressed. Suture material involving distal loops of small bowel are also noted without evidence of complication. Is not definitively visualized though there are no secondary signs of appendicitis. Loops of large bowel contain mild fecal load without wall thickening or signs of acute inflammation. There is a small volume of free fluid in the abdomen and pelvis. No free air. PELVIS: Ureters appear normal. The urinary bladder is moderately distended appearing normal. Uterus is surgically absent. No adnexal mass is seen. LYMPH NODES: There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm.

SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. Interval development of small subcapsular fluid collection (1.2 x 2.2 x 2.4 cm) along the PTBD as it exits the liver anteriorly, likely representing biloma though cannot exclude abscess. 2. Small volume ascites. Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with left PTBD with subcapsular collection // PTBD check/change, collection aspiration COMPARISON: CT abdomen pelvis of ___. TECHNIQUE: OPERATORS: Dr. ___, Interventional Radiology Fellow and Dr. ___, attending radiologist performed the procedure. Dr. ___ ___ personally supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and has reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: Sedation was administered by the anesthesiology department. The patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. MEDICATIONS: 1 g ceftriaxone. CONTRAST: 40 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 13.0 min, 14 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Limited preprocedure right upper quadrant ultrasound. 2. Tube cholangiogram. 3. Over the wire sheath cholangiogram. 4. 12 mm balloon dilatation of the ampulla (prolonged inflation). 5. Post balloon dilatation cholangiogram. 6. Ultrasound and fluoroscopy guided aspiration of subcapsular collection using a combination of a 7 ___ sheath, 5 ___ pigtail catheter, and ___ needle. 7. Exchange of prior 12 ___ PTBD catheter with a new 12 ___ PTBD catheter. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The mid abdomen was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A limited preprocedure ultrasound demonstrated 2.3 x 2.0 x 0.7 cm subcapsular hypoechoic area surrounding the hepatic entry site of the existing catheter. Initial scout images showed biliary drain in the appropriate position. A cholangiogram was performed of the existing tube, demonstrating distal tube occlusion. The hub of the catheter was cut and ___ wire was advanced through the catheter into the small bowel. The catheter was removed. The ___ wire was exchanged using a Kumpe catheter for an Amplatz wire. A 7 ___ sheath was advanced over the wire into the small bowel. Pull-back cholangiogram and antegrade cholangiogram were performed to delineate the level of stenosis and assess antegrade biliary drainage, findings below. Based on the results of the cholangiogram, decision was made to perform balloon dilatation of the sphincter. A 12 mm balloon was advanced over the wire through the sheath to the level of the ampulla. Multiple overlapping serial balloon dilatations were performed of the ampulla and distal CBD. A waist was noted at the level of the ampulla. The 12 mm balloon was used to perform a prolonged inflation for 5 min at the level of the ampulla. The waist was noted to fully reduce. The balloon was withdrawn. Post balloon dilatation cholangiogram was performed, demonstrating improved flow through the ampulla. Next, the sheath was slowly withdrawn to the level of subcapsular collection. Using a combination of ultrasound and fluoroscopy to confirm position within the subcapsular collection, aspiration was performed, with a minimum amount of fluid returned. A 5 ___ pigtail catheter was advanced into the collection through the sheath and formed. This was confirmed under US. US images were stored. This was also then used to perform aspiration of the subcapsular collection. No significant fluid was aspirated. ___ needle was advanced percutaneously under ultrasound guidance into the collection. Sonographic image of the needle within the hypoechoic area were archived. Aspiration was attempted, without significant fluid return. All needles and catheters were withdrawn. A 12 ___ PTBD catheter was advanced into the duodenum. Side holes were positioned above and below the level of obstruction to facilitate internal drainage. The wire and inner stiffener were removed, the catheter was flushed, the loop was formed, the catheter was attached to a bag and sterile dressings were applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well and there were no immediate post-procedure complications. FINDINGS: 1. Preprocedure ultrasound demonstrating 2.3 x 2.0 x 0.7 cm subcapsular collection surrounding the hepatic entry site of the existing catheter. 2. Initial cholangiograms demonstrating narrowing at the level of the ampulla with poor antegrade flow of contrast. 3. 12 mm balloon sphincteroplasty (prolonged inflation for 5 min) with a waist initially noted at the level of the ampulla, with improved flow on post-sphinteroplasty cholangiogram. 4.

This collection closely abuts the cecum along its anterior superior margin (2:76, 302:78). PELVIS: The urinary bladder and distal ureters are unremarkable. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The uterus is not visualized. LYMPH NODES: There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. Moderate atherosclerotic disease is noted. BONES: There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. The patient is status post right total hip arthroplasty. There is a chronic fracture in the posterior-lateral left ninth rib. There are moderate to severe degenerative changes in the thoracolumbar spine with unchanged multilevel loss of height in the L3, L4 and L5 vertebral bodies. SOFT TISSUES: Aside from expected postsurgical changes, the abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. The posterior approach percutaneous drain has been withdrawn, now terminating outside the rim enhancing fluid collection in the perirectal space. 2. The pelvic fluid collection has minimally decreased in size, now measuring approximately 6.5 x 4.4 cm, previously 7.3 x 4.6 cm. However, the collection closely abuts the cecum along its superior anterior margin and it is unclear if there is a fistulous connection. If further evaluation is desired, contrast could either be administered via the ostomy or via the percutaneous drain once it is replaced. 3. No evidence of leak from the rectal stump. 4. Stable pancreatic hypodensities measuring to 1.9 cm in the pancreatic head, which most likely represent side branch IPMNs.

OPERATORS: Dr. ___, radiology fellow and Dr. ___, attending radiologist. Dr. ___ supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. TECHNIQUE: The risks, benefits, and alternatives of the procedure were explained to the patient. After a detailed discussion, informed written consent was obtained. A pre-procedure timeout using three patient identifiers was performed per ___ protocol. The patient was placed in a left lateral position on the CT scan table. Limited preprocedure CT scan was performed to localize the collection and position of existing tube. Based on the CT findings an appropriate skin entry site for the drain placement was chosen. The site was marked. Local anesthesia was administered with 1% Lidocaine solution. The tube was cut and ___ wire was advanced via existing tube in an attempt to negotiate wire along the tract into the collection. Unfortunately, this was unsuccessful and the wire was retracted along with the tube. The same skin entry site was used. Using intermittent CT fluoroscopic guidance, an 18-G ___ needle was inserted into the collection. A sample of fluid was aspirated, confirming needle position within the collection. 0.038 ___ wire was placed through the needle and needle was removed. This was followed by placement of ___ Exodus pigtail catheter into the collection. The plastic stiffener and the wire were removed. The pigtail was deployed. The position of the pigtail was confirmed within the collection via CT fluoroscopy. Approximately 10 cc of purulent fluid was aspirated with a sample sent for microbiology evaluation. The catheter was secured by a StatLock. The catheter was attached to bag. Sterile dressing was applied. The procedure was tolerated well, and there were no immediate post-procedural complications. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Spiral Acquisition 5.4 s, 16.5 cm; CTDIvol = 10.8 mGy (Body) DLP = 163.8 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 8.3 s, 0.7 cm; CTDIvol = 97.0 mGy (Body) DLP = 69.8 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Body) = 243 mGy-cm. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering divided doses of 2 mg Versed and 100 mcg fentanyl throughout the total intra-service time of 35 minutes during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. FINDINGS: The original 10 ___ pigtail was retracted and tip was extraluminal to the pelvic fluid collection.

REASON FOR THIS EXAMINATION: Please evaluate if patient passed stone. COMPARISON: None available TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar T1 and T2 weighted images were acquired on a 1.5 tesla magnet, including dynamic 3D imaging, obtained prior to, during, and after the uneventful intravenous administration of 0.1 mmol/kg (7 cc) of Gadavist gadolinium contrast. Patient also received 2.5 cc of Gadavist gadolinium in 75 cc of water for oral contrast. FINDINGS: Patient is apparently status post ERCP the morning prior to this study, although report is not available at this time. There is persistent moderate diffuse intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation, the common bile duct measures 10 mm in diameter. There is diffuse peribiliary enhancement consistent with cholangitis, including enhancement about the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts as well as the gallbladder wall. In the more inferior common bile duct is a small likely partially obstructing hypointense calculus measuring 6 mm in diameter. 2 smaller filling defects are seen superior and inferior to this lesion, these may represent additional nonobstructing calculi. Smaller filling defects are also seen in the distalmost common bile duct near the ampulla, with note also made of ampullary edema and hyperemia. No evidence of abscess formation. The gallbladder is nondistended but filled with sludge and stones with wall hyperenhancement which may represent secondary or chronic cholecystitis. 6 mm simple appearing cyst in the left hepatic lobe. There is minimal dilatation of the pancreatic duct measuring 4 mm. Mild fat stranding is seen surrounding the pancreatic head. The pancreatic parenchyma appears to have preserved enhancement. Bilateral simple appearing renal cortical cysts measuring up to 8 mm in the right upper pole. Spleen, pancreas, bilateral adrenal glands appear unremarkable. Normal caliber abdominal aorta. No evidence of significant lymphadenopathy. Visualized small and large bowel appear unremarkable. No evidence of ascites. Small fat containing umbilical hernia. IMPRESSION: 1. Persistent moderate intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation suggestive of distal CBD obstruction. Multiple common bile duct stones measuring up to 6 mm in the inferior common bile duct, with small stones seen near the ampulla, along with ampullary edema and minimal pancreatic ductal prominence. Cannot exclude tiny stone impacted at the ampulla. Extensive cholelithiasis. 2. Findings suggestive of associated cholangitis with secondary or chronic cholecystitis. Radiology Report INDICATION: History of cholelithiasis and choledocholithiasis and gallstone pancreatitis. Status post laparoscopic cholecystectomy. COMPARISONS: MRCP from ___. FINDINGS: Four fluoroscopic spot views from an intraoperative cholangiogram are submitted for review without the presence of a radiologist. These demonstrate opacification of the common bile duct, common hepatic duct, and cystic duct. The common bile duct and the common hepatic duct appear dilated. There are no filling defects. For further details, please refer to the intraoperative note.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you on this admission. You came to the hospital because you were having abdominal pain, nausea, and dark urine. You were found to have an obstruction of your bile duct. This caused your pancreas to get inflammed. You were treated with IV fluids and pain control. You underwent an ERCP to remove some stones, and then you had your gallbladder removed to ensure the problem wouldn't recur. You tolerated the procedure well and are now being discharged home to continue your recovery with the following instructions. Please follow up in the Acute Care Surgery clinic at the appointment listed below. ACTIVITY: o Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. o You may climb stairs. o You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. o Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 4 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. o You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. o You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: o You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. o You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. o You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. o You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. o 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: o Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your incisions. Under these dressing you have small plastic bandages called steri-strips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). o Your incisions may be slightly red around the stitches. This is normal. o You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. o Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. o Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. o 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. o You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. YOUR BOWELS: o Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medications. 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. o If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: o It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". o Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. o You will receive a prescription for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directed. o Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. o Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. o 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. o If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. o 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 following, 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.

Patient recently had a complicated hospitalization from ___ to ___ at ___ after being transferred from ___ due to concerns for SBO. During the hospitalization, she was treated for acute L5-S1 osteomyelitis which was thought to be due to MSSA bacteremia from a likely left foot ulcer source. Patient was also initially conservatively managed for intermittent SBO but ultimately on ___ he was taken to the OR for exploratory laparoscopy, lysis of adhesion, and incision and resection of small bowel. During this admission, he also was started on TPN, which he continued as an outpatient. The patient reports feeling relatively well since discharge and improving. After he follow-up with Dr. ___ started advancing his diet to a non-residual diet. However, he felt that he may have pushed too far, having a cheeseburger and fries yesterday prior, which soon led to nausea and vomiting. The vomiting continued through the night and into this morning, and he subsequently presented to the ___ ED. He reports that his last BM in his colostomy bag was yesterday morning. He has not had any fevers or chills. In the ED his initial vitals were notable for a temp of 99.2, heart rate 105, BP 116/85, oxygen saturation 98% on room air.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___ ___. You were admitted on ___ with a 2-day history of nausea/vomiting, diffuse abdominal pain and constipation. In the emergency room, most of your laboratory work-up was negative except for elevated inflammatory markers. You also had a CT scan to look at your abdomen and pelvis, which was concerning for inflammation at the end of your small intestine as well as a partial obstruction of your small intestine. You were evaluated by the surgical service, who thought that there was no surgical concern at that time. On admission to the medicine floor, you had significant abdominal pain and was very dehydrated. You were hydrated with intravenous fluid since drinking made your pain worse. We also started you on two antibiotics named ciprofloxacin and flagyl to decrease the inflammation and improve your symptoms. You were also seen by our gastroenterologists who thought you may be suffering from inflammatory bowel disease given your history. Your symptoms continue to improve over 48 hours and by the ___ day of your stay, you were able to tolerate a regular diet with no abdominal pain or nausea. Also, your blood culture grew some bateria so we switched you antibiotic to cover for the microbes. By the time of discharge, you were able to walk on your own, your pain was significantly improved, you have transitioned successfully to oral pain medication and you have been tolerating a regular diet. We sent some labs as requested by our gastroenterologist in preparation, should you need any treatment in the future based on further analysis as outpatient. We strongly suggested you follow-up with the appointment with the gastroenterologist and on getting a colonoscopy, which you understand is not only important for screening for colon cancer but also may help in making the final diagnosis. Please take all your medications as prescribed. You will be on a steroid which you will be taking every morning. You will also be on oxycodone for pain so avoid driving while on this medication. PLEASE BE SURE TO HAVE YOUR PPD READ ON ___ BY A NURSE OR DOCTOR AT YOUR PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR'S OFFICE. Thank you for choosing the ___. We wish you the very best. Your ___ Team

Dear ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___. You were admitted because you had worsening abdominal pain for several days associated with nausea and vomiting, with difficulty being able to eat food and liquids, and decreased ostomy output. You were evaluated by the GI and colorectal services. Imaging did not reveal any perforation (as had occurred in the past), and we monitored you for any signs of obstruction or blockage. It was found on the CT image that you had a perirectal abscess, and per colorectal surgery, interventional radiology aspirated the fluid (culture pending). After the procedure, you had a fever, and we gave you IV antibiotics (cefepime and flagyl) to treat for a suspected infection. However, there was lower suspicion for infection at this point, and we discontinued the antibiotics. You will be discharged on your home oxycodone (Immediate Release) ___ mg PO Q4-6H PRN pain for a total of 21 pills. Please see your PCP on ___ to obtain refills.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: Sulfa (Sulfonamide Antibiotics) / Glucocorticoids,Systemic Classifier / Leukine / Prochlorperazine Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Neurologic changes over past week Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Stereotactic biopsy of the left frontal lesion ___ History of Present Illness: Mr ___ is a ___ year old male with metastatic melanoma to the lungs, brain, and left lower extremity who recently initiated PD-1 (nivolumab, ipilimumab) 12 weeks ago presenting with 1 week of neurologic changes. His wife notes over the past week he has been increasingly confused, with increasing anxiety and depressive symptoms; he has been weak and fatigued. No lateralized motor deficits, but he has overall had difficulties with balance. He was scheduled to get an MRI brain in a few weeks as part of the study, however the MRI was moved up several days on account of these worsening neurologic symptoms. On the MRI he was found to have an increasing left frontal lobe lesion (5 mm -> 3 cm) associated with brain edema, along with an increase in the 2 right frontal lobe lesions also associated with edema. Of note, per his family, although he has had prior brain metastases, he has never been on significant stretches of steroids for edema. This is his first episode of brain edema according to his wife. He has also never had seizures; 2 days prior to this admission, his wife did notice that he had some tremors that lasted a few minutes but no loss of consciousness. He also has had improvement in his leg pain (site of melanoma metastases) since initiating PD-1 12 weeks ago. He's attempted to decrease his pain medications given this improvement (does continue on a 100 mcg fentanyl patch changed every 72 hours) but quit dilaudid 3 days ago (was taking ___ pills per day) cold ___. Following the brain MRI today, he developed nausea and one episode of emesis. Usually, he experiences nausea during/after an MRI and takes lorazepam to mitigate these symptoms. Review of systems is negative for chest pain, chest pressure, shortness of breath, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dysuria. He is frequently constipated secondary to his pain medications; he is chronically taking stool softeners. He is admitted given his worsening brain lesions, edema, and likely consequent neurologic symptoms. In the ED, he received 10 mg of decadron and zofran. Past Medical History: ONCOLOGIC HISTORY: Mr. ___ underwent an excisional biopsy of a 6.2 mm thick, ___ Level IV, broadly ulcerated melanoma on his right shoulder in ___. Wide local excision showed tumor within 0.1 mm of the edge, a satellite nodule, and 25 mitoses per HPF. Sentinel node biopsy showed evidence of melanoma in 1 of 2 lymph nodes. He underwent complete node dissection with residual melanoma being identified in the soft tissue of the axilla, but no melanoma was found in 15 lymph nodes. -- ___ to ___, received adjuvant interferon, and then stopped due to fatigue. He was then noted to have a right axillary mass, FNA confirmed recurrent melanoma. CT scan revealed 2 nodules in the right axilla, but no clear evidence of distant metastases. There was uptake in the right glenoid, most consistent with a rotator cuff injury. -- ___ had excision of the right axillary nodules: Pathology showed 3 soft tissue deposits of melanoma within the dermis, resected with clean margins. He had postoperative radiation therapy, 5100 cGy in 17 fractions over 3 weeks in Western ___. -- in ___ started on adjuvant GM-CSF. After 4 doses, he developed erythema & leg swelling. -- in ___ PET-CT showed a lung nodule. Brain MRI then showed a metastatic lesion in the left parietal lobe s/p SRS ___. -- in ___ received ___ cycle of high dose IL-2; course was c/b shock, toxic encephalopathy, & myocarditis. During his ___ cycle of ___, he developed tongue swelling after the ___ day of the ___ week. Given concern for airway compromise, he did not receive any additional doses. -- in ___, 4 week scans showed stability of lung nodules. Scans done again in ___ showed stable lung disease, no new brain lesions. He seen in our clinic in ___ and last in ___ at which time scans were again stable. - ___, MRI revealed a tiny 3 x 3 lesion in the right frontal lobe adjacent to the surface of the brain, which was new. - ___ underwent stereotactic radiation with Dr. ___. He states that after the radiation, he had a significant frontal headache, which has improved, but recurs with any coughing. - ___ MRI head was unchanged right frontal 4 x 4 mm enhancing lesion, consistent with a stable metastasis. No new lesions. -- ___, he had significantly worsening headaches and MRI findings concerning for recurrent leptomeningeal disease. At that time, he underwent lumbar puncture with negative cytology. Of note, opening pressure was 14 cm of water. However, despite negative cytology, given his severe symptoms, we discussed starting ___ and contacted his primary oncologist, Dr. ___. However symptoms resolved and ___ not started. -- ___: There was a concern for leptomeningeal disease given his pressure dependent headaches; however, these have resolved and followup imaging was stable enough to support him pursuing wedge resection of the nodule that was growing in his left lower lobe. This was performed by Dr. ___ on ___ by laparoscopic thoracotomy. This was performed near home and we have not received the pathology report, though it is highly likely melanoma. -- ___ - resection of recurrent disease in the LLL, RUL and mediastinum -- internal fixation of the left femur on ___, and -- completion of external beam radiotherapy at ___ as of ___, -- status post CyberKnife radiosurgery to left frontal (2mm) and right parietal (2mm) metastases both to ___ cGy at 76% isodose line -- ___ : Signed consent for ___ ___, sequential protocol of ipilimumab and PD-1 antibody, started on ___.

Dear Mr. ___, You came to the hospital because of confusion and worsening mental status. This is secondary to advanced melanoma. You had a brain biopsy which revealed the tumor's response to treatment with surrounding swelling. You were started on steroids to decrease the swelling in your brain, and on seizure medication called keppra for possible seizure activity. You will not continue on your current treatment for the melanoma, but will be started on a new medication (a BRAF inhibitor). This will arrive in the mail. Please follow up with your outpatient oncologists as below regarding further management of your melanoma. Thank you for allowing us to take part in your care, Your ___ team.
Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: slurred speech and facial droop Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: none History of Present Illness: Mr. ___ is an ___ yo man with CAD, DM2, sCHF (EF <40%), afib, and CKD, recently found to have a cerebellar mass (likely metastatic lung primary), s/p VP shunt placement on ___ and undergoing WBXRT, who presents today with worsening slurred speech over the last one week and a left sided facial droop. Per report, the patient's sons have reported that he has been less attentive and less ambulatory over the last one week, with increasingly slurred speech and gradually worsening facial drooping. . He was initially diagnosed with the cerebellar mass on ___, when he presented to ___ with several weeks of unsteady gait. Brain CT there showed the right cerebellar mass, and CXR showed a left lingular mass and left hilar fullness. CT Torso showed peripheral LUL mass with left hilar and mediastinal LAD. He was transferred to ___, and brain MRI ___ showed the right cerebellar mass with surrouding edema. He was started on steroids. The neurosurgery service did not recommend surgical intervention. Lung bx ___ showed poorly differentiated carcinoma. Since that time, he has had issues with gait unsteadiness. On ___ he underwent elective VP shunt placement, with an uncomplicated OR course, and post-op head CT stable without new hemorrhage. Exam was intact, and the pt was discarged on ___. His Coumadin had been on hold due to bleeding risk, while he continued in atrial fibrillation. In the ___, he was called as a code stroke upon presentation with an NIHSS of 9, for a gaze preference (left, although able to fully ___ sclera on the right), right sided facial droop, right pronator drift and subtle weakness in an upper motor neuron pattern, right leg drift, limb ataxia, and dysarthria. Additional findings include his overall inattentiveness, apathy, paucity of speech, and perseveration. Labs were unremarkable except BUN 56 and Cr 1.6, and positive UA (22 WBCs, few bacteria). Neurology felt that a new acute stroke was unlikely, and that his symptoms were more likely due to increasing edema around the right cerebellar mass. Seizure and GBS were thought unlikely. On head CT there appeared to be a slight increase in the size of his ventricles, so a shunt study was performed and Neurosurgery was made aware, with a plan to evaluate the integrity of the shunt and adjust as necessary. ROS: Unable to be adequately assess as pt is inattentive with poor communication. Denies all other symptoms.

Dear Mr. ___, . You were admitted to the hospital with left sided facial droop and slurring of your words. A CAT scan of your head was done which showed that the mass in your head was stable to minimally larger in size. You also had imaging of your shunt which was in proper position and not kinked. An EEG was done which showed that you did NOT have any seizure activity. The cause of your left facial droop and slurred speech was thought to be secondary to swelling in your brain. We treated you for this with steroids. We also started you on Keppra, a medicine to prevent seizures. Of note, you also had a urinary tract infection which we treated with antibiotics. . We have made the following changes to your medications: -START Keppra 500mg twice daily -CHANGE Dexamethasone to 6mg PO bid -START Cefpodoxime 200mg daily, last day on ___ .

He was in his usual state of health, was walking, slipped on some wet gravel with inversion injury and then fell over with immediate pain and inability to ambulate. He was found to have comminuted distal tibia/fibula fracture with intra-articular extension. He was admitted to the orthopaedic team and treated with external fixator on ___. Past Medical History: HTN GERD Social History: ___ Family History: NC Physical Exam: DISCHARGE PHYSICAL EXAM General: Alert and oriented, NAD, AVSS Cardio: RRR Resp: breathing unlabored Left lower extremity: External fixator in place, pin sites wrapped in dry gauze with mild staining, wiggles toes, SILT superficial peroneal, deep peroneal, saphenous, tibial, sural distributions, ___ pulses, foot warm and well-perfused Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ with pilon L ankle fracture, status post reduction. COMPARISON: Prior exam performed earlier today from outside hospital. FINDINGS: AP, lateral, oblique views of the left ankle were provided. There has been interval reduction attempt with no significant change in alignment. Comminuted fractures through the distal tibia and fibula are unchanged. Overlying plaster splint is in place. IMPRESSION: Distal tibia and fibula fractures in unchanged overall alignment. Radiology Report INDICATION: Status post trauma with distal tibia and fibular fractures. Evaluate preoperatively. TECHNIQUE: MDCT images were obtained through the left ankle without the administration of IV contrast. Sagittal and coronal reformatted images were obtained and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP: 440.44 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Ankle radiographs from ___. FINDINGS: There is a markedly comminuted oblique fracture of the distal tibia with intra-articular extension. The dominant distal fracture fragment is displaced anteromedially. The fragments are overriding by approximately 1 cm. The intra-articular portion of the fracture has two major components. First, there is a nondisplaced fracture through the posterior portion of the joint. Second, there is an anteromedial fragment that is displaced anteriorly by 1.2 cm. This is creating a small focal articular surface gap. There are two tiny bone fragments adjacent to the medial malleolus, suggesting an avulsion injury. The remainder of the medial malleolus is intact. There is also a markedly comminuted fracture of the distal fibula with intra-articular extension. There is one fracture above the syndesmosis with the distal fragments displaced anteromedially, similar to the tibial fracture. Below the syndesmosis, the lateral malleolus is split into two dominant fracture fragments. There is an anterior fragment and a posterior fragment which are distracted by approximately 1.4 cm. Additionally, there are several smaller bone fragments, including an elongated horizontally oriented fracture fragment at the level of the distal fibula which extends to within 4 mm of the skin (400 be, 92). Additionally, there is a small 9 mm fragment in between the dominant anterior and posterior fragments of the lateral malleolus at the level of the tibio-talar joint. No other fracture is identified. No evidence of entrapment of the extensor, peroneal, or flexor tendons. There is edema in the surrounding soft tissues, most marked along the lateral aspect of the joint. There is no subcutaneous gas or evidence of a foreign body. There is no large focal fluid collection or hematoma. IMPRESSION: Markedly comminuted displaced intra-articular fractures of the distal tibia and fibula, as described above.

Diffuse ground-glass pulmonary opacities with smooth interlobular septal thickening likely represents pulmonary edema in the setting of cardiomegaly. Although less likely, this could alternatively be related to infectious or inflammatory process. 2. Stable large hiatal hernia. 3. Increase in number of mediastinal lymph nodes. These are not enlarged by CT size criteria and demonstrate ___ years of stability, and may represent a low grade lymphoproliferative process. 4. Interval increase in size of cystic lesion within the pancreatic body measuring up to 2.5 cm. Further evaluation with MRI may be helpful if desired. 5. No significant change in right adrenal adenoma and left adrenal myelolipoma. 6. A 15 x 30 mm left thyroid nodule, for which further evaluation with nonemergent thyroid ultrasound is recommended. TTE ___ The left atrium is elongated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and regional/global systolic function (LVEF>60%). Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Doppler parameters are most consistent with Grade II (moderate) left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. There is no ventricular septal defect. Right ventricular chamber size is normal with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen accounting for shadowing from the right ventricular pacer lead. There is at least moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. [In the setting of at least moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation, the estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure may be underestimated due to a very high right atrial pressure.] There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Hypertensive heart disease. Increased PCWP. Mildly hypokinetic right ventricle with moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation (intrinsic RV function will be decreased) and at least moderate pulmonary hypertension.

The attending, Dr. ___ was present and supervising throughout the procedure. Dr. ___ radiologist, personally supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and reviewed and agreed with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: Moderate sedation was provided by administrating divided doses of 100mcg of fentanyl and 2 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service time of 45 min during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: Fentanyl, midazolam, lidocaine CONTRAST: 0 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 2.5 min, 7 mGy PROCEDURE: PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the explanation of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The right/left, upper chest/groin was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Under continuous ultrasound guidance, the patent internal jugular vein on the left was compressible and accessed using a micropuncture needle. Permanent ultrasound images were obtained before and after intravenous access, which confirmed vein patency. Subsequently a Nitinol wire was passed into the right atrium using fluoroscopic guidance. The needle was exchanged for a micropuncture sheath. The Nitinol wire was removed and a short ___ wire was advanced to make appropriate measurements for catheter length. The ___ wire was then passed distally into the IVC. Next, attention was turned towards creation of a tunnel over the upper anterior chest wall. After instilling superficial and deeper local anesthesia using lidocaine mixed with epinephrine, a small skin incision was made at the tunnel entry site. A 23cm tip-to-cuff length catheter was selected. The catheter was tunneled from the entry site towards the venotomy site from where it was brought out using a tunneling device. The venotomy tract was dilated. During dilation, the bent wire became caught on the dilator and vascular access was lost. The left internal jugular vein was accessed through the same skin incision using ultrasound guidance and a micropuncture needle. Using a Nitinol wire and micropuncture sheath, ___ wire was advanced again into the IVC. The venotomy site was dilated. Following this, the peel-away sheath was placed over the ___ wire through which the catheter was threaded into the right side of the heart with the tip in the right atrium. The sheath was then peeled away. The catheter was sutured in place with 0 silk sutures. ___ subcuticular Vicryl sutures and Steri-strips were also used to close the venotomy incision site. Final spot fluoroscopic image demonstrating good alignment of the catheter and no kinking. The tip is in the right atrium. The catheter was flushed and both lumens were capped. Sterile dressings were applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well. FINDINGS: Patent internal jugular vein on the left.

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted because your blood pressure was low and you were confused. Your symptoms improved with intravenous fluids. You continue to have an infection in your foot. You were not deemed a surgical candidate given the high risk of the procedure. You were not able to get antibiotics through the "PICC" line because you kept pulling out your line. Instead we are giving you oral antibiotics with the goals of care discussed with your guardian to not pursue more aggressive care. We also initiated the process of transferring you to hospice care. Your infection in your foot is unlikely to improve. This will serve to focus treatment on measures that will make you more comfortable. Please follow up with the Infectious disease clinic for your antibiotics and the Podiatrists for your foot infection. Sincerely, Your ___ Team

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you during your hospitalization. You came to ___ ___ because you are having left shoulder pain. We also did some blood tests that showed that your heart was under stress. You underwent a stress test that demonstrated you may have a narrowing in one of the blood vessels of your heart. You were started on aspirin and atorvastatin to prevent a blockage from forming in one of these blood vessels. We will arrange for you to follow up with a cardiologist as an outpatient to monitor this. We think that your left shoulder pain is likely due to your chronic left shoulder pain. Your discharge medications and follow-up appointments are detailed below. We wish you the best!

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old woman with R hip fracture // better characterize fracture TECHNIQUE: 1.5 Tesla. Body array coil. Routine routine unilateral right hip protocol. COMPARISON: CT scan dated ___. FINDINGS: As demonstrated on the previous CT, there is a comminuted slightly distracted fracture of the greater tuberosity. In addition, there is marrow edema extending across the intertrochanteric portion of the right proximal femur (06:18 05:17). This suggests that there is an occult, more extensive intertrochanteric component to the fracture, that is nondisplaced. There is considerable fluid interposed between the right greater tuberosity fragment and the main portion of the femur (06:19, at 09:24) and a prominent amount of fluid/edema surrounding the fracture site and surrounding the intertrochanteric portion of the femur (07:14). The gluteus medius and minimus tendons remain intact, inserted, respectively, on the greater tuberosity fragment and the intact posterior aspect of the greater trochanter. (06:20, 06:19 6: 15). Marked atrophy of right and left gluteus minimus muscles is noted (05:15). The right femoroacetabular joint remains congruent, with relatively mild changes of osteoarthritis and without a significant effusion. Aside from mild degenerative changes, the left hip joint proximal an femur are within normal limits. Bones about the pelvic girdle are otherwise intact, without marrow edema to suggest fracture. Assessment of intrapelvic soft tissue structures is quite limited. Free intrapelvic fluid is noted posteriorly. There are multiple diverticuli. Apparent surgical absence of the uterus. A 15.6 mm high T2 focus in the left pelvis (06:19) could represent a left adnexal cystic structure. Limited assessment of the lower lumbar spine shows advanced degenerative changes, not fully evaluated on this examination. Chondrocalcinosis seen about the right hip and pubic symphysis on the recent CT are not well appreciated radiographically. The abdominal aortic aneurysm seen by CT is also not well visualized on this MRI due to a more limited field-of-view. IMPRESSION: Comminuted avulsion fracture of the right greater trochanter again seen, in keeping with findings on the ___ CT scan. In addition, curvilinear marrow edema traversing the intertrochanteric portion of the right femur suggests the presence of an occult, more extensive intertrochanteric fracture component than suggested on the recent CT scan. Surrounding edema, fluid and hemorrhage noted. No other fractures detected in the pelvic girdle. 15.6 mm rounded high T2 focus left pelvis raises the possibility of a left adnexal cystic structure in this patient status post prior hysterectomy. Clinical correlation and if indicated, followup assessment assessment by ultrasound in ___ months to assess for stability, could be considered.

You should weigh yourself every day, and call your doctor if your weight goes up by more than 3 pounds. After you leave the hospital you will need rehabilitation to regain your strength after the surgery. Your appointments and medications are listed in your discharge paperwork. We wish you the best! -Your ___ Care Team ORTHOPEDIC POST OPERATVE INSRUCTIONS ====================================== INSTRUCTIONS AFTER ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY: - You underwent surgical fixation of your right hip fracture during your hospitalization. It is normal to feel tired or "washed out" after surgery, and this feeling should improve over the first few days to week. - Resume your regular activities as tolerated, but please follow your weight bearing precautions strictly at all times. ACTIVITY AND WEIGHT BEARING: - You are encouraged to bear weight as tolerated on your right lower extremity. MEDICATIONS: - Please take all medications as prescribed by your physicians at discharge. - Continue all home medications unless specifically instructed to stop by your surgeon. - Do not drink alcohol, drive a motor vehicle, or operate machinery while taking narcotic pain relievers. - Narcotic pain relievers can cause constipation, so you should drink eight 8oz glasses of water daily and take a stool softener (colace) to prevent this side effect. ANTICOAGULATION: - Please take Lovenox 40 MG daily for 4 weeks WOUND CARE: - You may shower. No baths or swimming for at least 4 weeks. - Any stitches or staples that need to be removed will be taken out at your 2-week follow up appointment. - No dressing is needed if wound continues to be non-draining.

A sample of fluid was aspirated, confirming needle position within the collection. A 0.038 ___ wire was placed through the needle and needle was removed. This was followed by placement of a ___ Exodus pigtail catheter into the collection. The metal stiffener and the wire were removed. The pigtail was deployed. The position of the pigtail was confirmed within the collection via CT fluoroscopy. Approximately 200 cc of purulent fluid was aspirated with a sample sent for microbiology evaluation. The catheter was secured by a StatLock. The catheter was attached to bag to gravity. Sterile dressing was applied. ULTRASOUND-GUIDED DRAINAGE OF RIGHT LOWER QUADRANT COLLECTION: Attention was then turned to the right lower quadrant collection. The patient was placed in a supine position on the CT scan table. Limited preprocedure ultrasound was performed to localize the collection. Based on the ultrasound findings, an appropriate skin entry site for the drain placement was chosen. The site was marked. Local anesthesia was administered with 1% Lidocaine solution. Using continuous sonographic guidance, a ___ Exodus drainage catheter was advanced via trocar technique into the collection. A sample of fluid was aspirated, confirming catheter position within the collection. The pigtail was deployed. The position of the pigtail was confirmed within the collection via ultrasound. Approximately 180 cc of purulent fluid was drained with a sample sent for microbiology evaluation. The catheter was secured by a StatLock. The catheter was attached to suction bulb. Sterile dressing was applied. The procedure was tolerated well, and there were no immediate post-procedural complications. DOSE: DLP: Total DLP (Body) = 992 mGy-cm. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering divided doses of 1.5 mg Versed and 75 mcg fentanyl throughout the total intra-service time of 40 minutes during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. FINDINGS: 1. Limited preprocedure CT scan again demonstrates multiple intra-abdominal fluid collections, better assessed on CT ___. An 8.3 x 7.1 cm presacral fluid collection (3:27) was targeted for CT-guided catheter drainage. A 10.5 x 6.2 cm right lower quadrant fluid collection (03:11) was targeted for ultrasound guided catheter drainage. A hyperdensity within the right lower quadrant fluid collection (3:19) is likely an appendicolith. Multiple additional smaller fluid collections are better evaluated on the prior contrast-enhanced CT. 2. Postprocedure CT scan demonstrates a 10 ___ catheter within the presacral collection, which is largely collapsed. A 10 ___ catheter is seen in the right lower quadrant fluid collection, which is also partially collapsed. Additional smaller fluid collections are better assessed on the prior contrast-enhanced CT. IMPRESSION: 1. CT-guided placement of a ___ pigtail catheter into the presacral abscess. A sample was sent for microbiology evaluation. 2. Ultrasound-guided placement of a 10 ___ pigtail catheter into the right lower quadrant abscess. A sample was sent for microbiology evaluation. 3.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___ Chief Complaint: right frontal/parietal stroke Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: This is an ___ left handed man with a history of hypertension, BPH, dementia of unkwown variety, history of longstanding tobacco abuse and recent hospitalization for a drug resistant UTI who presents to the ED as a transfer from an OSH where a subacute stroke was discovered on CT scan. I received a brief report of his baseline status when speaking with his daughter on the phone. She did clarify that he is DNR. She reoprts that he has had dementia for some years now. While he is quite physically able at baseline, he does get assistance for help with his ADLs due to his ongoing issues with confusion, disorientation and inattention. He had been doing well until very recently when he was hospitalized for an infection. She mentioned that there was a "drug resistant organism", and a UTI caused "acute kidney failure". He was sent home after placing a power PICC line and sent home with instructions to get imipenem/cilastatin until the ___ ___. His PICC line was being flushed with heparin at home and maintained by a home IV nurse. This morning, when getting showered, the nurse noted that he was having difficulty getting words out. The family was notified. Instead of going to the ED directly, they decided to keep their appointment with the PCP later this morning. The PCP referred them to the ED where a CT scan was done and was read as subacute right frontal stroke. I do not have the actual report. The CT has been uploaded to our system. He was transferred for further neurologic evaluation. His daughter reports that at baseline, he is not dysarthric and there is no left sided weakness. Review of systems: Is difficult in this patient at this time, given his mental status. Daughter did report no new symptoms in the past couple of days other than what is described above. Past Medical History: - Hypertension - H/o tobacco abuse - BPH and urinary retention - recurrent UTI - Dementia (long standing, is not oriented to time or to place at baseline) - Hypercholesterolemia - Right frontal and parietal embolic stroke Social History: ___ Family History: Unable to obtain.

He can tell me his name, but does not know where he is or why he is here. He relates no specific complaints. He does not know the date. He could not recall his address or phone number. He was significantly dysarthric but somewhat comprehensible. He was able to identify and name "reading glasses", key and glove, but could not identify feather, cactus or hammock. He could not identify the color of my scrubs as blue. He was able to read, but would often skip words. So instead of "they heard him speak on the radio last night", he read "heard speak radio last night". When having him describe the scene on the stroke cards, he had very limited verbal incomprehensible output. Could not test memory, attention. - Cranial Nerves: I: Olfaction not tested.

Multiple cortical foci of acute infarction in the right frontal and anterior parietal lobes, in the right middle cerebral artery territory. No significant mass effect at this time. No evidence of hemorrhagic transformation. 2. Two punctate chronic microhemorrhages in the paramedian right frontal lobe, which could be related to amyloid angiopathy, hypertension, or less likely a cavernous malformation. 3. Unremarkable neck MRA. 4. The superior and inferior division branches of the right middle cerebral artery are smaller in caliber compared to the left. ___ TTE: The left atrium is normal in size. No thrombus/mass is seen in the body of the left atrium. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and global systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%). Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. No masses or thrombi are seen in the left ventricle. There is no ventricular septal defect. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No mass or vegetation is seen on the mitral valve. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial effusion. EEG ___: IMPRESSION: This is an abnormal video EEG recording with slowed theta background frequencies seen during most awake portion of this recording. In addition, there were bursts of generalized and more focal slowing over the right frontocentral regions. Multifocal sharp transients were seen as described above as well as broad-based right hemisphere sharp and slow discharges. One clinical event described above concerning for seizure. (At 00:06 a.m., the patient can be seen lying in bed asleep with right side of his face down when he wakes, suddenly turns head towards left with tonic flexion of upper extremities which lasts a few seconds and is followed by chewing movements as he scans the space around him appearing confused.)

Not oriented to month/year, oriented to the fact he's in the hospital but not to reason. Level of Consciousness: fluctuates between being alert and interactive and being lethargic but arousable to noxious stimuli Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Needs supervision. Neurologic Status: fluctuating level of alertness, does not move left side as much as right side, but withdraws all extremities to noxious stimuli. Appears to have left sided neglect, though difficult to determine. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ man with acute neurological change. Evaluate for evidence of intracranial process. COMPARISON: Non-contrast head CT performed on ___ at ___ ___. Prior Brain MRI dated ___ from ___. TECHNIQUE: Axial contiguous MDCT images were obtained through the brain without the administration of IV contrast. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of hemorrhage, or mass effect. The ventricles and sulci are slightly prominent, consistent with age-related degeneration. Unchanged cortical foci of low attenuation, consistent with acute infarction in the right frontal and anterior parietal lobes, right middle cerebral artery territory, demonstrated on the prior brain MRI. Periventricular white matter changes suggest chronic small vessel ischemic disease. An area of hypodensity in the area of the coronal radiata of the right frontal lobe (2:19) suggests a small area of encephalomalacia due to prior infarction. The basal cisterns appear patent. There is no fracture. There is an air-fluid level in the left maxillary sinus but the remaining paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells and middle ear cavities are clear. There are no soft tissue abnormalities. IMPRESSION: 1. Unchanged cortical foci of low attenuation, consistent with acute infarction in the right frontal and anterior parietal lobes, right middle cerebral artery territory. No evidence of hemorrhagic transformation. 2. Periventricular white matter changes suggest chronic small vessel ischemic disease. Radiology Report CHEST ON ___ HISTORY: Verify PICC line placement. FINDINGS: There is a right-sided PICC line with tip in the mid SVC. The lungs are clear without infiltrate or effusion. The right hemidiaphragm is mildly elevated. The aorta is mildly tortuous. Cardiac silhouette is normal. Radiology Report HEAD MRI WITHOUT CONTRAST, HEAD MRA WITHOUT CONTRAST, NECK MRA WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST INDICATION: New onset of right frontal stroke. COMPARISON: Non-contrast head CT performed on ___ at ___ ___. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1-weighted, and axial T2-weighted, FLAIR, gradient echo, and diffusion-weighted images of the head were obtained. Three-dimensional time-of-flight MRA of the head was obtained, with multiplanar maximal intensity projection reformatted images. Coronal VIBE imaging of the neck was performed before, during, and after intravenous gadolinium administration, with multiplanar maximal intensity projection reformatted images of the neck arteries. FINDINGS: HEAD MRI: There are multiple cortical foci of slow diffusion in the right posterior frontal and anterior parietal lobes, in the middle cerebral artery territory. Several smaller foci of slow diffusion are also noted in the anterior right frontal lobe. These demonstrate faint high signal on FLAIR images, indicating that the evolving acute infarction is more than six hours old. There are no associated blood products. However, there are two punctate foci of low signal intensity on gradient echo images in the paramedian right frontal lobe, indicating chronic microhemorrhages, which could be related to amyloid angiopathy, hypertension, or less likely a cavernous malformation. FLAIR images also demonstrate multiple foci of high signal in the deep and periventricular white matter, and to a lesser extent in the subcortical white matter of the cerebral hemispheres, likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease in a patient of this age. There is a small chronic infarction in the left inferior cerebellar hemisphere. There is moderate cerebral atrophy with associated prominence of the ventricles and sulci. There is fluid and mild mucosal thickening in the left maxillary sinus. There is moderate mucosal thickening in the ethmoid air cells bilaterally. NECK MRA: There is a three-vessel aortic arch. The cervical common carotid, internal carotid, and vertebral arteries appear patent without evidence of hemodynamically significant stenoses. HEAD MRA: Flow is visualized in the intracranial internal carotid and vertebral arteries, and their major branches. M1 segment of the middle cerebral arteries demonstrate symmetric flow. However, superior and inferior division branches of the right middle cerebral artery are smaller in caliber compared to the left. There is no evidence for an intracranial aneurysm. IMPRESSION: 1. Multiple cortical foci of acute infarction in the right frontal and anterior parietal lobes, in the right middle cerebral artery territory. No significant mass effect at this time. No evidence of hemorrhagic transformation. 2. Two punctate chronic microhemorrhages in the paramedian right frontal lobe, which could be related to amyloid angiopathy, hypertension, or less likely a cavernous malformation. 3. Unremarkable neck MRA. 4. The superior and inferior division branches of the right middle cerebral artery are smaller in caliber compared to the left.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure to take care of you at ___ ___. You were transferred to here because you had difficulty speaking and moving your left side, and you were found to have right frontal and parietal stroke. In the hospital, you had episodes of very deep sleeping, so EEG was done to monitor your brain waves. Because it showed sharp waves, you were started on a medication called Keppra to help with that. You DID NOT have a clear seizure. You were also found to have a urinary tract infection, so you were started on antibiotics.
Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Syncope Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: HPI: The patient is a ___ year old ___ woman who comes in with LOC and a MVC who is 5 weeks pregnant with a history of anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, migraine headaches, h/o gastric bypass ___ and subsequent 130 lb wt loss. We were consulted to evaluate ___ weeks of episodes of bizarre visual symptoms, lightheadedness, syncope. For the past ___ weeks the patient has been having recurrent episodes of visual phenomenon, lightheadedness, and generalized weakness. These three symptoms sometimes occur separately and at other times occur together. They have been growing more frequent and are now occuring at least ___ times per day. The visual phenomenon she describes as "checkers" of skinny, tan colored, horizontal lines across her vision that mostly obscures her vision. There is also a variation on this which she calls "sand" which also covers her vision and obscures it. There is no migration or progression from one quadrant to another, instead the phenomenon covers her entire visual field. These episodes tend to occur mostly when she is standing up for a prolonged period, or when she goes from sitting to standing quickly. Thus she has started to try to stand up slower. Generally when this happens she has to grab onto things around her and lowers herself to the ground which helps. The symptoms generally resolved after ___ minutes. She has also been having episodes of lightheadedness intermittently which can be associated with the visual symptoms but not always. Finally, she has epsideso of "legs going noodles" which she describes as a generalized weakness. When she tries to stand up from her bed to go to the bathroom especialyl she notes that she feels generally weak and her legs give out on her. On several occasions she has had to lower herself to the ground and call for help. She also notes that she finds herself needing to sit down or lean against objects more often than prior. The patient has had 3 episodes of syncope in the past 2 weeks (including the episode leading to her current MVC). Her first episode occured when she was walking down the hallway in her house. She then felt lightheaded and felt her legs buckle, and she remembers lowering herself towards the floor, but she then lost conciousness and awoke to find her daughter next to her. The second episode occured when she was in the shower and she sat down in the shower, she does not remember this episode well. The third episode was today leading to her MVC. She was driving back from ___ when she experienced the visual "checkers" phenomenon, and then blacked out. She slammed her car into a pole and does not remember waking up until after the accident. This is one of the first times she has had an episode like this while she was sitting down. On neurologic review of systems, the patient denies current headache, lightheadedness, or confusion. Endorses some recent word finding difficulty in the past several weeks. Denies loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, vertigo Denies muscle weakness. Denies loss of sensation, although she notes she occasionally gets tingling in 2 toes on her R foot Denies bowel or bladder incontinence or retention. Denies difficulty with gait. On general review of systems, the patient denies fevers, rigors, she does get "hot sweats" day and night. 130 lb weight loss recently after gastric bypass. Denies chest pain, palpitations, dyspnea, or cough. Endorses nausea, vomiting with the pregnancy, endorses constipation Denies dysuria or hematuria. Denies myalgias, arthralgias, or rash.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MRV HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old pregnant woman status post syncope. Evaluate for dural venous sinus thrombosis. TECHNIQUE: 2D time-of-flight MRV of the brain with angiographic maximal intensity projection reformatted images. COMPARISON: None FINDINGS: Flow is visualized in the major dural venous sinuses, including the superior sagittal sinus, straight sinus, bilateral transverse sinuses, bilateral sigmoid sinuses, and visualized upper internal jugular veins, without evidence for occlusion. There are 2 small, centrally located, nonocclusive apparent filling defects in the left transverse sinus on image 100:9, which are most likely related to invagination of arachnoid granulations, or less likely fenestrations. Their central location and nonocclusive nature are not consistent with thrombus. This may be confirmed by conventional routine brain MRI. IMPRESSION: No evidence for dural venous sinus thrombosis. Arachnoid granulations invaginating into the left transverse sinus versus fenestrations, which may be better defined with conventional routine brain MRI, if clinically warranted. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: EARLY OB US <14WEEKS INDICATION: ___ year old woman with 5 weeks pregnant // assess location of fetus LMP: unknown TECHNIQUE: Transabdominal and transvaginal examinations were performed. Transvaginal exam was performed for better visualization of the embryo. COMPARISON: None available FINDINGS: An intrauterine gestational sac is seen and a single living embryo is identified with a crown rump length of 5.3 mm representing a gestational age of 6 weeks 3 days for an estimated due date of ___. The uterus is normal. The left ovary is normal. The right ovary demonstrates a 0.6 x 0.7 x 0.6 cm echogenic focus in addition to a collapsed or hemorrhagic corpus luteum cyst. IMPRESSION: 1. Single live intrauterine pregnancy with gestational age of 6 weeks 3 days correlating with estimated due date of ___ 2. 7 mm echogenic focus within the right ovary likely representing an ovarian dermoid. Recommend followup ultrasound after pregnancy. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed by Dr. ___ with Dr. ___ on the telephone on ___ at 13:20 AM Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: MRV with some irregularity in the transverse sinuses. // Eval for stroke, venous sinus thrombosis. TECHNIQUE: Routine ___ nonenhanced MRI examination of the brain, including sagittal T1 FLAIR, axial T2, axial FLAIR, axial T2 GRE, and axial diffusion images. COMPARISON: MRV from ___ and CT head from ___ FINDINGS: There is no acute infarct or intra cerebral hemorrhage. Principal intracranial vascular flow voids are preserved. Flow voids of the dural venous sinuses are also preserved. There is no increased signal on T1 and FLAIR and no negative susceptibility in the medial left transverse sinus to correspond to the possible filling defect seen on the MRV. The tiny filling defect in the lateral left transverse sinus is below the resolution of this exam. There is no T2 hyperintense focus to suggest an arachnoid granulation. A punctate focus of FLAIR hyperintensity in the left frontal lobe is nonspecific. No extra-axial blood or fluid collection is present. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration. No diffusion abnormality is detected. No intracranial mass is identified. The brainstem, posterior fossa, and cervicomedullary junction are preserved.No abnormality of the skull base or calvarium is identified. IMPRESSION: 1. No increased signal on T1 or FLAIR and no evidence of negative susceptibility in the medial left transverse sinus to suggest thrombosis. The finding seen on the MRV is likely due to slow flow. 2. The tiny filling defect in the lateral left transverse sinus is below the resolution of this exam. No T2 hyperintense signal to suggest an arachnoid granulation.

Dear Ms. ___, Thank you for choosing to receive your care at ___. You were admitted for shortness of breath and chest pressure. Given your history of coronary artery disease and your recent hospital admission for similar symptoms, we assessed the degree of heart vessel blockage by coronary angiogram. The cornoary angiogram did not reveal any blockages in the blood flow. You also underwent a CT scan of your chest, which did not demonstrate any clots or damage to the large vessels in your chest. We did an ultrasound of your heart and the heart valves and pump function was normal. The ultrasound did show that the left side of your heart was enlarged but this was unchanged from your previous ultrasound in ___. We think your pain is likely related to pain in the muscles and bones in your chest wall affecting your jaw, versus small vessel disease in your heart which would not cause significant effects to your heart function. Moving forward, you should make sure to take the medications as listed below, and attend the follow up appointments listed below. If you develop worsening shortness of breath, chest pain, or other concerning symptom, please talk to your doctor right away. Again, it was our pleasure participating in your care here at ___. We wish you the best, Your ___ Care Team

History of Present Illness: ___ male with BRCA1 mutation, breast cancer s/p mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection, chemotherapy and radiation, prostate cancer, melanoma, and left ___ DVT s/p coumadin treatment presenting with abdominal pain. The patient's history is challenging secondary to slight confusion from dilaudid in the ER and his admittedly being overwhelmed with being told he likely has metastasis in the ER. He states that he has chronic abdominal pain but the morning of admission, it awoke ___ from sleep. It was on the right side of his abdomen, ___ in intensity, sharp, and not relieved by Maalox. He also "slipped" but did not his his head. He was admitted at another hospital 3 days ago for a routine endoscopy which was unrevealing; he was also started on Bactrim there for a UTI which he does not like because sulfa upsets his stomach. On arrival to the floor, he is anxious, frustrated, and overwhelmed but has less abdominal pain with the dilaudid. .

You were admitted to the hospital for worsening abdominal pain that is likely due to cancer in the liver. To confirm this, you had a liver biopsy, the results are still pending. In case this is breast cancer and considering your high risk of a breast cancer recurrence, tamoxifen was restarted. Your pain has been controlled with a combination of OxyContin and hydromorphone (Dilaudid). The OxyContin is long-acting and should be taking twice a day regardless of the level of your pain. It will not help taking it for acute/sudden pain. The hydromorphone (Dilaudid) can be taken in addition to the OxyContin for acute/sudden pain. For the chronic pain at the right arm and chest, your gabapentin (Neurontin) dose was increased. You also have a urinary tract infection and will need to complete a course of antibiotics at home. CT of your abdomen shows that you have chronic kidney stones that may be contributing to the urinary tract infection. . MEDICATION CHANGES: 1. OxyContin 20mg 2x a day. 2. Hydromorphone as needed for breakthrough pain. 3. Gabapentin (Neurontin) 600mg 3x a day. 4. Tamoxifen 2x a day. 5. Ciprofloxacin 2x a day.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking part in your care at ___ ___. As you know, you came to the hospital due to worsening shortness of breath. In the ED, you had a CT scan that was negative for a blood clot in the lungs, and labs were reassuring against a problem with the heart muscle (which were checked due to your chest heaviness). The CT scan did show bronchitis, a possible infection of the small lung airways, and severe emphysema. You were admitted for further treatment of an exacerbation of your emphysema/COPD with prednisone and nebulizer treatments, and you received antibiotics for bronchitis. You were also found to have conjunctivitis, and you were given eye drops. Your breathing improved. Please see the attached medication list for changes to your home medication regimen. You will have short courses of azithromycin and prednisone to finish at home. Other medications include eye drops and nystatin mouth solution. Also, you have a prescription for a nicotine patch. We strongly encourage you to continue avoiding cigarettes, as you have done while hospitalized. Smoking cessation is an important step toward improving your health. Please follow up with Pulmonary Medicine according to the appointment list below. You should have a repeat chest CT scan in ___ weeks.

Chief Complaint: ___ Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: ___ - open splenectomy ___ - L S1 screw, ant column screw ___ - bedside tracheostomy History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old Female who presented to the ___ in the setting of an MVC. She was initially intubated at the OSH, and was found on pan-scan imaging to have small bilateral pneumothoraces, multiple rib fractures, a splenic laceration, L5 transverse process fracture, and pelvic fractures. Past Medical History: ___:(from old notes and from HCP, needs to be reconfirmed) -Osteoarthritis -Depression -Chronic Back Pain -HTN -HLD -Obesity -Hyperthyroidism (benign thyroid mass) -Insulin Dependent DM2 -Hx of osteomyelitis -Asthma -?

COMPARISON: CTA torso ___. PHYSICIANS: Dr. ___ (resident), Dr. ___ (fellow) and Dr. ___ (attending, present and supervising throughout). ANESTHESIA: The patient arrived to the angiography suite intubated and sedated. Fentanyl and Versed infusions were maintained throughout the procedure. 1% lidocaine was administered for local anesthetic. FLUOROSCOPY: 395 mGy, 32.3 minutes. CONTRAST: 90 mL Visipaque. PROCEDURES: 1. Right common femoral artery access. 2. Splenic arteriogram and cone beam CT. 3. Coil embolization of third order and second order branches of the splenic artery. 4. Proximal splenic artery embolization with a 6mm Amplatzer plug device. PROCEDURE DETAIL: After discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure with the patient's next of kin, verbal informed consent was obtained and witnessed. The patient was brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the imaging table. The right groin was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A preprocedure timeout and huddle was performed as per ___ protocol. Initial scout image demonstrated delayed nephrogram in the right kidney consistent with impaired excretion of contrast from the prior CTA. Under fluoroscopic and palpatory guidance, the right common femoral artery was accessed using local anesthesia and the standard micropuncture technique at the level of the mid femoral head. A 6 ___ ___ sheath was advanced over the ___ wire and parked in the mid abdominal aorta. Next, a glide catheter and Glidewire were advanced through the sheath and used to select the celiac axis and then advanced further into the splenic artery. The sheath was then brought further into the splenic artery to secure the celiac ostial access. A digital subtraction angiogram was performed with cone beam CT demonstrating multiple abnormalities in the splenic parenchyma consistent with multiple pseudoaneurysms. There was no definite active extravasation. A decision was made to further sub-select the branches supplying two largest pseudoaneurysms in the upper and lower splenic poles. A third order branch supply the upper pole of the spleen using a ___ Renegade microcatheter and double-angled Glidewire. After hand injection to confirm the desired position, three 2 mm x 1 cm Hilal coils were deployed. Injection of contrast confirmed stasis of flow. Next, the microcatheter was withdrawn and used to select a second order branch of the splenic artery supplying the lower pole and supplying multiple large parenchymal abnormalities. After hand injection of contrast to confirm position of the microcatheter one 2 mm x 1 cm Hilal coil and two 3 mm x 2 cm Hilal coils were deployed. There was near-complete stasis of flow. Approximately 0.5 cc of a gelfoam slurry was injected with resulting stasis of flow. The microcatheter was withdrawn and the glide catheter exchanged for a 6 ___ guiding catheter which was placed in the proximal splenic artery. A 6 mm Amplatzer plug was deployed. Hand injection of contrast following deployment confirmed absence of antegrade flow to the spleen with reflux into the celiac axis and common hepatic arteries. The guide catheter and 6 ___ sheath were removed over a wire. Manual pressure was held for 25 minutes for optimal hemostasis. The patient tolerated the procedure well without immediate complication. FINDINGS: 1. Incidental note of a delayed right nephrogram. 2. Multiple splenic parenchymal abnormalities consistent with pseudoaneurysms. No definite active extravasation. IMPRESSION: 1. Uncomplicated proximal and selective distal splenic embolization. 2. Delayed right nephrogram consistent with renal insufficiency. Findings were discussed by phone with Dr. ___ at the completion of the procedure at approximately 8:20 p.m. on ___. Radiology Report INDICATION: Multiple rib fractures. ___ at 533am. FINDINGS: There is subcutaneous emphysema in the left chest wall. There is a consolidation in the left mid and lower lung, which likely represents a combination of hemothorax and atelectasis and contusion from prior injury. Multiple continuous posterior rib fractures are seen in the left, as seen on prior CT. ET tube ends 3.4 cm from the carina. The enteric tube ends in the stomach. No pleural effusion is identified. The right lung is grossly clear. The mediastinal and hilar contours are within normal limits. IMPRESSION: Left mid and lower lung opacity likely represents combination of pleural hemothorax and atelectasis and contusion. Multiple rib fractures on the left. No pneumothorax is identified. Radiology Report INDICATION: Increasing abdominal distention status post MVC. Evaluate for free air. COMPARISON: ___ at 5:33 a.m. FINDINGS: Enteric tube ends in the stomach; however the last side port is likely above the GE junction. ET tube is stable in position. The left mid and lower lung opacities are unchanged. The right lung is clear. Left pleural effusion is unchanged. There is no evidence of free air. No pneumothorax. IMPRESSION: No evidence of free air. No significant change compared to ___ at 5:33 a.m. Enteric tube ends in the stomach; however the last side port is likely above the GE junction. Recommend advancement. These findings were discussed with Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ at 940am on ___ by phone at time of discovery. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CYSTOGRAM INDICATION: ___ year old woman with pelvic fracture, concern for bladder injury, rule out bladder injury. COMPARISON: CTA torso from ___. FINDINGS: Initial AP and oblique scout images prior to administration of contrast show a Foley catheter within the bladder, a right total hip arthroplasty, and fractures of the left acetabular column and inferior pubic ramus previously seen on CT torso. Intermittent fluoroscopy was performed while approximately 300 cc of Cysto-Conray water soluble contrast was instilled through the patient's catheter into the bladder. With a distended bladder, imaging was performed in AP and oblique projections. The patient's catheter was then reconnected to the urinary bag, and the patient was able to evacuate the bladder through the catheter. Post-evacuation images were then obtained. There is no evidence of contrast extravasation from the bladder. Intermittent excretion of IV contrast from bilateral ureters were noted during the exam. IMPRESSION: No evidence of bladder leak. Radiology Report CHEST RADIOGRAPH. INDICATION: Multiple rib fractures, intubation, evaluation. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph from ___. FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is unchanged evidence of rib fractures. The effusion on the left has substantially decreased. However, on the right, a new effusion has occurred. As a consequence, the areas of basal atelectasis have changed accordingly. On the current image, there is no evidence for the presence of pneumothorax. In the interval, a right internal jugular vein catheter has been newly introduced. No other relevant changes. Radiology Report INDICATION: New NG tube placement. COMPARISONS: Chest radiograph from ___ at 5:40. FINDINGS: An endotracheal tube is in unchanged position, 5.3 cm from the carina. A right internal jugular sheath is present with the tip in the upper SVC. An enteric tube courses below the diaphragm with the tip in the stomach.

Rib fractures, splenic injury, pelvic fractures on outside hospital exam. COMPARISON: CT torso performed subsequently after this exam. FINDINGS: PORTABLE AP CHEST: There are at least five contiguous rib fractures on the left from the fourth to the eighth ribs although several other rib fractures bilaterally are better evaluated on concurrent CT torso. There is subcutaneous emphysema in the left chest wall. There is opacity in the left lung, likely a combination of lung parenchymal contusion and hemothorax. The right lung is relatively clear, but low in volume. The cardiomediastinal silhouette and hilar contours are difficult to evaluate given portable technique but grossly normal. The ET tube terminates approximately 2.5 cm from the carina. Enteric tube courses through the esophagus and appears to course to the right at the EG junction and out of view. There is possible small left pneumothorax with lucency along the left heart border. PORTABLE AP PELVIS: There are fractures of the superior and inferior pubic rami on the left with inferior displacement of the medial fracture components. There is communited left sacral alar fracture. There is no evidence of pubic symphysis or SI joint diastasis. There is total right hip arthroplasty. The left hip appears intact. IMPRESSION: 1. Numerous left rib fractures with left hemothorax and possible left pneumothorax. Other known right rib fractures and right pneumothorax are better seen on concurrent CT of the chest. 2. Left superior and inferior pubic rami fractures and comminuted left sacral alar fracture Radiology Report INDICATION: Trauma. Motor vehicle collision with left rib fractures, splenic laceration, pelvic fractures. COMPARISON: Outside CT of the torso without contrast the same day. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous helical MDCT images were obtained through the torso after administration of Omnipaque IV contrast, followed by additional delayed images through the torso. Multiplanar axial, coronal, and sagittal images were generated. TOTAL BODY DLP: 2237 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There are posterior and lateral displaced fractures of the left 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 ribs, as well as fractures laterally in the left second rib, laterally in the left fifth rib, and anteriorly in the left first rib.

There are acute fractures of the left inferior pubic ramus (2B:446). There is a comminuted fracture of the left acetabular column involving the left superior pubic ramus (2B:427). There is also comminuted fracture of the left sacral ala (2B:386). There is no evidence of pubic symphysis or SI joint diastasis. Total right hip prosthesis is incidentally noted. CT CHEST WITH CONTRAST: Included portions of the thyroid are unremarkable. There is no supraclavicular, axillary, hilar, or mediastinal lymphadenopathy. The heart is not enlarged, and there is only trace likely physiologic pericardial fluid. There are calcifications of the coronary arteries and aorta. There are very small bilateral pneumothoraces (2A:1). There is a moderate left hemothorax with atelectasis of the left lower lobe. A small peripheral area of probable lung contusion is evident in the lingula (2A:3). Very small right hemothorax is also noted with adjacent atelectasis in the lower lobe. Subcutaneous emphysema is noted within the left chest wall adjacent to the fractures. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without intramural hematoma, aneurysm, or dissection. The great vessels are unremarkable. CT ABDOMEN WITH CONTRAST: The liver enhances normally without focal lesions, intra- or extra-hepatic biliary duct dilation. The portal vein is patent. The gallbladder contains small dependently layering stones. There is thickening at the fundus of the gallbladder, likely reflecting adenomyomatosis (2B:319). Fatty lesion in the left adrenal gland is compatible with a myelolipoma. The pancreas and right adrenal gland are unremarkable. The kidneys excrete contrast symmetrically without hydronephrosis or worrisome mass. There are scattered subcentimeter hypodensities. The largest in the interpolar region of the right kidney measures 1.2 cm with internal density of 15 Hounsfield units, compatible with a simple cyst. Other smaller hypodensities are too small to characterize but may also be simple cysts. The ureters are normal throughout their visualized course. The spleen contains several lacerations, the largest a 3.1-cm laceration within the upper pole (2B:269). There are several arterially enhancing foci, most likely reflecting pseudoaneurysms; for example, 1.6 cm focus superiorly (2A:18) and several smaller scattered foci more inferiorly. The most inferior focus (2A:40) may have a component of active extravasation, but if present, this is small. There is small to moderate hemoperitoneum, with a hematoma seen surrounding the spleen. Additional small volume hemorrhage tracks along the retroperitoneum on the left along the psoas. The patient is status post gastric bypass. Enteric tube passes into the gastric remnant. The excluded portion of the stomach is unremarkable. Small and large bowel are normal in caliber without evidence of wall thickening or abnormal enhancement. There is no mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy and no abdominal wall hernia. No free air is present. Abdominal aorta is normal in caliber with moderate calcified atherosclerotic disease within the aorta and iliac arteries. CT PELVIS WITH CONTRAST: Streak artifact from right total hip arthroplasty limits evaluation of the lower pelvis. However, within these limitations, there is small to moderate amount of blood in the pelvis. Two more well-circumscribed foci in the lower pelvis measuring 4.5 and 3.3 cm also likely reflect hematomas (2A:157). The rectum and is unremarkable. A foley is noted in a collapsed bladder. Extraperitoneal hematoma surrounds the left pubic rami fracture; extraperitoneal bladder rupture is unlikely given the normal appearance of the bladder on the prior CT. IMPRESSION: 1. Splenic lacerations (AAST grade 3) with several pseudoaneurysms, the largest measuring 1.6 cm. The small inferior-most pseudoaneurysm may have a tiny component of active extravasation. 2. Moderate left hemothorax with small bilateral pneumothoraces. 3. Small left lung contusion at the lingula. 4. Small hemoperitoneum with hemorrhage also in the left retroperitoneum and pelvis. 5. Comminuted left acetabular column and left inferior pubic ramus fracture. Comminuted left sacral alar fracture. 6. Fracture of the left L5 transverse process.

This is fairly similar in appearance to some of the patient's prior examinations including one dated from ___ and is most likely chronic, secondary to dysmotility CXR ___: FINDINGS: Status post G-tube placement. Only a part of the device is visible on the current chest x-ray. There are clearly hyperexpanded parts of the colon visible both under the left and the right hemidiaphragm. On the right, however, there could also be a small amount of post-procedural free air. CXR ___: IMPRESSION: AP chest compared to ___, 8:47 p.m.: ET tube in standard placement, nasogastric tube passes into non-distended stomach. Right internal jugular line ends in the right atrium, approximately 9 cm below the level of the carina, would need to be withdrawn 5 cm to reposition it in the low SVC. Opacification in the right upper lobe has improved suggesting it was due in large part to atelectasis. Followup advised. Moderate cardiomegaly has improved. Left lung is clear. No pneumothorax or pleural effusion. The intestines in the upper abdomen remain moderately-to-severely distended EKG ___: Atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response with frequent ventricular premature beats or aberrant conduction. Left ventricular hypertrophy with repolarization changes. Inferolateral ST segment changes are probably due to left ventricular hypertrophy. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ the findings are similar. CXR ___: IMPRESSION: Right IJ line has been withdrawn, probably ends in the upper atrium since it is still 7 cm below the level of the carina, and would need to be further withdrawn 3 cm to reposition it low in the SVC. No pneumothorax or pleural effusion. Right upper lobe atelectasis has almost entirely cleared. Mild cardiomegaly is stable. ET tube in standard placement. Upper enteric drainage tube passes into a non-distended stomach. Intestinal segments in the upper abdomen are still moderately-to-severely distended. CXR ___: FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, the sidehole of the nasogastric tube is now in the middle to distal parts of the stomach. The tip of the device is not included on the image. No evidence of complications, notably no pneumothorax. Massive intestinal overdistention, unchanged to the prior image. Minimal plate-like atelectasis at the right lung bases. Moderate cardiomegaly. Thickening of the minor fissure. The right internal jugular vein catheter, the endotracheal tube are in correct position. KUB ___: FINDINGS: Diffuse colonic distension is again demonstrated, with individual loops of bowel measuring up to 9 cm in diameter. A moderate amount of residual stool is present within the colon, particularly in the ascending and distal rectosigmoid regions. Overall similar appearance to ___, though the extent of bowel distention has slightly decreased since that time. Similar pattern of colonic distension is present on older abdominal radiographs ___, possibly due to a history ___ syndrome. Nasogastric tube and G-tube overlie the stomach. KUB ___: IMPRESSION: Persistent colonic dilatation, substantially increased, now with a maximal dilatation of 14 cm. This is compatible with known pseudoobstruction, but volvulus is not excluded in this current study. If clinical concern for obstruction persists, a gastrograffin enema or CT may be considered. Otherwise, short-term follow-up radiographs are recommended. The degree of dilatation may pose a risk of perforation and close follow-up is suggested. KUB ___: IMPRESSION: Gas throughout the colon largely unchanged since 1 day prior consistent with excessive ileus. No evidence of obstruction. MICRO: Urine culture ___: ___. >100,000 ORGANISMS/ML..

Radiology Report INDICATION: History of a 20 ___ MIC G-tube in place, which fell out, for replacement. PHYSICIAN: Dr. ___, the attending radiologist, performed the procedure. PROCEDURE: 1. Tube study (injection through existing Foley in place). 2. Replacement with a 20 ___ MIC G-tube. SEDATION: Moderate sedation was provided by administering dividing doses of fentanyl throughout the total intraprocedure time of 15 minutes (50 mcg) during which patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by a trained radiology nurse. PROCEDURE: Prior to initiation of procedure, written informed consent was obtained and preprocedure timeout was performed. The site was prepped and draped in a sterile manner. Contrast injection was performed through the existing Foley to confirm that the tip was positioned within the stomach. Next, a 4 ___ dilator and ___ wire advanced alongside the Foley, and the wire was coiled within the stomach. The Foley balloon was deflated and the catheter was removed. A Kumpe catheter was advanced into the stomach, and contrast injection confirmed appropriate location. Over the ___ wire, a 20 ___ MIC G-tube was placed, and the balloon was inflated within the stomach and pulled back to the ostomy site. The retention disc was advanced, and the catheter was secured in place. Contrast injection confirmed placement and the catheter was flushed. The patient tolerated the procedure well and there were no immediate complications. FINDINGS: Foley catheter in place within the patent tract, with the tip positioned in the stomach. Successful exchange for a 20 ___ MIC G-tube. IMPRESSION: Successful replacement of 20 ___ MIC G-tube. Radiology Report PORTABLE ABDOMEN, ___ COMPARISON: ___. FINDINGS: Diffuse colonic distension is again demonstrated, with individual loops of bowel measuring up to 9 cm in diameter. A moderate amount of residual stool is present within the colon, particularly in the ascending and distal rectosigmoid regions. Overall similar appearance to ___, though the extent of bowel distention has slightly decreased since that time. Similar pattern of colonic distension is present on older abdominal radiographs ___, possibly due to a history ___ syndrome. Nasogastric tube and G-tube overlie the stomach. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ female with colonic distention. COMPARISON: Abdominal plain film on ___. FINDINGS: Supine images through the abdomen demonstrate increased dilatation of large bowel. Redomonstration of diffuse colonic distention with maximum dimension measured to be 14 cm; this is considerably more dilated than on prior examination when dilation measured 7 cm. The orientation of the dilation has changed slightly as well, now more horizontal. Air is seen within nondilated loops of small bowel. Re- demonstration of G tube and interval removal of nasogastric tube. IMPRESSION: Persistent colonic dilatation, substantially increased, now with a maximal dilatation of 14 cm. This is compatible with known pseudoobstruction, but volvulus is not excluded in this current study. If clinical concern for obstruction persists, a gastrograffin enema or CT may be considered. Otherwise, short-term follow-up radiographs are recommended. The degree of dilatation may pose a risk of perforation and close follow-up is suggested. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ female with colonic distention. COMPARISON: Abdominal plain film obtained ___. FINDINGS: Supine frontal images through the abdomen demonstrate gas filled loops distended large bowel which appears stable-slightly improved when compared to prior day. Gas is seen throughout loops of small bowel. No evidence of obstruction. No free intraperitoneal air identified. Gastric tube noted. Surgical clips noted in the epigastric region. IMPRESSION: Gas throughout the colon largely unchanged since 1 day prior consistent with excessive ileus. No evidence of obstruction. Radiology Report HISTORY: IV access needed for antibiotics. OPERATORS: Dr. ___ and Dr. ___ resident). The attending, Dr. ___, was present during key portions of the procedure. TECHNIQUE: A preprocedure time out was performed per hospital protocol. Using sterile technique and local anesthesia, the patent right basilic vein was punctured under direct ultrasound guidance using a micropuncture set. Hard-copy ultrasound images were obtained before and immediately after establishing intravenous access. A peel-away sheath was then placed over a guidewire and a single-lumen PICC measuring 35 cm in length was placed through the peel-away sheath with its tip positioned in the superior vena cava under fluoroscopic guidance. Position of the catheter was confirmed by fluoroscopic spot film of the chest. The peel-away sheath and guidewire were then removed. The catheter was secured to the skin, flushed and a sterile dressing was applied. The patient tolerated the procedure well. There were no immediate complications. IMPRESSION: Uncomplicated ultrasound and fluoroscopically guided single-lumen PICC via the right basilic vein. The final internal length is 35 cm with its tip positioned in the low superior vena cava. The line is ready for use.

Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure caring for you during your stay. You were admitted for abdominal distention and a pulled G-tube. During your admission your abdominal distention improved with a flexiseal, laxatives, and positioning. In addition, your G-tube was replaced. During your admission you had an episode of respiratory compromise, possibly due to aspiration, for which you were briefly intubated and in the ICU. You recovered quickly and were extubated. In addition, you had an exacerbation of your atrial fibrillation with rapid heart rates. Your heart rate was controlled with medications and at discharge is within normal limits. You were started on lovenox for coagulation because your INR was low. You will go to the nursing home on ___ until your INR is between ___. Your INR should be monitored at the nursing home. You were also treated for a urinary tract infection. You received a full course of antibiotics for the infection. In addition, it was noted that you had an increased number of blasts, or immature white blood cells, in your labs. This should be monitored as it may represent a disease process or malignancy.

As per review of outpatient notes, NP was called by patient's wife in light of persistent vomiting, that was dark brown, and was associated with more coughing and white mucus. Reported low grade fever so was referred to ED. On arrival to the medical ward, pt and wife provided history. They noted that he received chemotherapy last week and had 2 asymptomatic days afterward then developed nausea/vomiting which is similar to how he reacted to prior chemotherapy administration. Reglan, Zofran, and Compazine was given to good effect but 1 day later he kept vomiting despite such medications, and further doses withheld as they wouldn't stay down. Vomit was noted to be thin/watery/brown without coffee grounds or bright red blood. He was stooling daily during this time and passing gas. Denied significant abdominal distension or pain but noted that he had generalized discomfort when vomiting. Reported no fevers at home, but temperature was 99 (increased from baseline of around 97). As a result of vomiting tubefeeds had been held. Patient also reported increase in chronic cough with thicker mucus but noted that it is still clear and breathing was unlabored. On arrival to medical ward patient reported feeling much improved. In the ED, initial VS were: 98.0 103 ___ 99% RA. Patient remained afebrile in ED. CBC with WBC of 2.7, Hgb 7.8, plt 372, CHEM wnl, lactate wnl, flu negative. CXR with small pleural effusions but no pneumonia. CT A/P revealed: 1. Pancreatic body mass with upstream dilation and tail atrophy, similar to prior. 2. Interval increase in now moderate sized right nonhemorrhagic pleural effusion. 3. No dilated loops of bowel or free air. 4. Position of the G tube balloon appears slightly retracted and is not definitively within the stomach lumen; this could be positioning or incomplete distension of the stomach on this exam. Correlate with clinical assessment and consider imaging after injecting G-tube with enteric contrast. 5. 7 x 3.3 cm collection along the left lateral lobe of the liver with mild mass effect on the stomach is new or more conspicuous compared to the prior exam. Multiple other intraperitoneal and pelvic fluid collections persist, some overall unchanged, others perhaps slightly smaller. 6. Multiple hepatic hypodensities and extensive omental caking, consistent with metastases are overall unchanged. GTube check performed and revealed: Enteric contrast administered via patient's PEG is noted within the stomach. No extraluminal contrast identified. ED team performed bedside U/S and could not identify a tappable pocket of ascites for diagnostic para. Patient was given IVF and admitted to the hospital. ___ was consulted and noted that they would change patient's GTube tomorrow morning. Past Medical History: PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY: - ___ CT Abdomen/Pelvis: Within the pancreatic body, there is a 3cm hypodense mass. The tail is atrophied and the main PD is dilated in that region.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: Chest radiograph INDICATION: ___ man with a history of pancreatic cancer who presents with nausea, vomiting and inability to tolerate po. TECHNIQUE: Chest PA and lateral COMPARISON: Chest CT dated ___. Chest radiograph dated ___. FINDINGS: Slightly low lung volumes. No focal pneumonia, pulmonary edema, or pneumothorax. Right Port-A-Cath tip ends in the right atrium. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is unchanged. Pleural effusions are small. Trace pleural fluid in the minor fissure. Tortuous thoracic aorta. No evidence of pneumomediastinum or subdiaphragmatic free air. IMPRESSION: 1. No pneumonia. 2. Small pleural effusions. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT abdomen and pelvis INDICATION: ___ man with a history of pancreatic cancer, presenting with nausea, vomiting, inability to tolerate p.o. Evaluate for small bowel obstruction. NO_PO contrast. TECHNIQUE: Single phase split bolus contrast: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis following intravenous contrast administration with split bolus technique. Oral contrast was not administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 634 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT abdomen and pelvis and CT chest dated ___. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: Nonhemorrhagic right pleural effusion is now moderate in size, larger since the prior exam. Associated homogeneously enhancing relaxation atelectasis in the right lower lung is mild. A left pleural effusion is trace and also nonhemorrhagic, overall unchanged from prior. No focal pneumonia in the partially imaged lower lungs. No evidence of a pericardial effusion. Coronary artery calcifications are moderate, incompletely imaged. The tip of a central venous catheter is only partially imaged near the SVC-RA junction. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Multiple hepatic hypodensities throughout the liver are compatible with known metastases, probably overall similar in size to the prior exam when accounting for differences in measurement technique. No evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder is within normal limits. Multiple large perihepatic fluid collections with fluid attenuation and enhancing wall persist. 2 closely approximated fluid collections along the left lateral lobe with mild mass effect on the stomach wall measures 7 x 3.3 cm, new from the prior (series 2, image 27). The largest fluid collection is bilobed along the anterior surface of the liver. Compared to the prior exam the inferior lobe of this fluid collection may be slightly smaller, now 16.2 x 9.7 cm on axial images, previously 17.3 x 10.9 cm (series 2, image 71; series 602, image 39). A 5.2 x 1.6 cm fluid collection along the anterior liver surface is unchanged (series 2, image 20). A 5.3 x 7 cm fluid collection along the posterior aspect of the liver is also overall unchanged (series 2, image 25). PANCREAS: The known hypoattenuating mass in the pancreatic body is difficult to accurately measure. Severe dilation of the main pancreatic duct with marked atrophy of the pancreatic tail persists, overall unchanged. The pancreatic head and uncinate process are within normal limits without main pancreatic ductal dilation in these regions. Small amount of ascites in the peripancreatic region is unchanged and of simple attenuation (series 2, image 30). SPLEEN: The spleen is normal in size and attenuation without evidence of a focal lesion. A fluid collection with fluid-fluid level of proteinaceous debris and/or old blood products may be slightly smaller, now measuring 14.3 x 9.9 cm, previously 16.8 x 11.2 cm (series 2, image 22). This fluid collection exerts mass effect on the spleen. ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape. URINARY: The kidneys are of normal and symmetric size with normal nephrogram. No evidence of focal renal lesions or hydronephrosis. No perinephric abnormality. GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is not markedly distended. The patient has a G-tube. Position of the G-tube appears slightly retracted relative to the prior exam however there may still be connect to be with the stomach lumen (series 2, image 29, 28). Small bowel loops are normal in caliber, wall thickness, enhancement throughout. The colon and rectum are within normal limits. The appendix is not seen. No small bowel obstruction. No pneumoperitoneum. Caking in the omentum from metastases is probably overall similar to the prior exam when accounting for differences in measurement technique (series 2, image 44). An 2.8 x 1.9 cm fluid collection in the mid right abdomen is unchanged (series 2, image 47). A 3.7 x 2.7 cm fluid collection in the right lower quadrant is unchanged (series 2, image 75). PELVIS: The urinary bladder is moderately distended and unremarkable. The distal ureters are unremarkable. An 1.8 x 2.6 cm fluid collection in the central pelvis is also unchanged (series 2, image 79; series 602, image 39). REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The prostate gland is not enlarged. LYMPH NODES: No retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. No pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. A 6 mm left external iliac lymph node is smaller from the prior exam (series 2, image 76). VASCULAR: No abdominal aortic aneurysm. Mild atherosclerotic disease is noted. The main, left common right portal veins appear patent. The splenic vein and SMV appear patent. BONES: No evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. Multilevel degenerative changes in the spine are similar to the prior exam, moderate to severe. Mild retrolisthesis of L2 on L3 and L3 on L4 is likely degenerative, unchanged. SOFT TISSUES: The patient has a G-tube. No soft tissue gas or fluid collections in the abdominal or pelvic wall. IMPRESSION: 1. Pancreatic body mass with upstream dilation and tail atrophy, similar to prior. 2. Interval increase in now moderate sized right nonhemorrhagic pleural effusion. 3. No dilated loops of bowel or free air. 4. Position of the G tube balloon appears slightly retracted and is not definitively within the stomach lumen; this could be positioning or incomplete distension of the stomach on this exam. Correlate with clinical assessment and consider imaging after injecting G-tube with enteric contrast. 5. 7 x 3.3 cm collection along the left lateral lobe of the liver with mild mass effect on the stomach is new or more conspicuous compared to the prior exam. Multiple other intraperitoneal and pelvic fluid collections persist, some overall unchanged, others perhaps slightly smaller. 6. Multiple hepatic hypodensities and extensive omental caking, consistent with metastases are overall unchanged. RECOMMENDATION(S): Correlate with clinical assessment and consider imaging radiograph after injecting G-tube with sufficient oral contrast.

ANESTHESIA: 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: None CONTRAST: 35 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 1.1 min, 8 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Exchange of a gastrostomy tube. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Following the discussion of the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure, written informed consent was obtained from the patient. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the exam table. A pre-procedure time-out was performed per ___ protocol. The upper abdomen and tube site was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A scout image was performed. The existing tube was injected with contrast and showed opacification of the gastric rugae. A ___ wire was advanced through the tube into the stomach. The existing tube was then removed using gentle traction after deflation of the balloon. Given the recent placement of the gastrostomy tube and lack of issues during tube feeding, a decision was made to use a 12 ___ MIC for replacement to err on the side of caution and prevent dehiscence of the fairly immature gastropexy. A 12 ___ gastrostomy tube was advanced over the wire into the stomach and the balloon was inflated using contrast diluted in sterile water. Contrast injection confirmed appropriate position. The retention ring of the tube was secured in place using 0 silk sutures. Sterile dressing was applied. Patient tolerated the procedure well and there were no immediate post-procedure complications.

Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ year old man with ESRD on HD admitted for L putamen stroke.// L brachiocephalic fistulogram- assess for patency due to difficult cannulation COMPARISON: None. TECHNIQUE: OPERATORS: Dr. ___ and Dr. ___ radiologist performed the procedure. Dr. ___ ___ supervised the trainee during the key components of the procedure and has reviewed and agrees with the trainee's findings. ANESTHESIA: Moderate sedation was provided by administrating divided doses of 37.5mcg of fentanyl and 0 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service time of 55 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site. MEDICATIONS: None. CONTRAST: 36 ml of Optiray contrast. FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 6.2 min, 11 mGy PROCEDURE: 1. Left upper extremity brachiocephalic fistulagram. 2. Axillary, subclavian and super vena cava venography. 3. Balloon angioplasty of the stent complex. PROCEDURE DETAILS: Written informed consent was obtained from the patient outlining the risks, benefits and alternatives to the procedure. The patient was then brought to the angiography suite and placed supine on the image table with the left upper extremity abducted and stabilized. Clinical examination demonstrated a left upper extremity fistula with a good thrill. Further evaluation by targeted ultrasound demonstrated patency of the fistula, with good flow. The left upper extremity was prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. A preprocedure timeout and huddle was performed as per ___ protocol. Using ultrasound and fluoroscopy, the arterial inflow and outflow stent levels were identified and the skin was marked with a skin marker. Antegrade (directed towards the venous outflow) access into the fistula was obtained using a 21G micropuncture needle. An 0.018 wire was then advanced easily into the outflow vein under fluoroscopic guidance. A 4.5F micropuncture sheath was advanced. The inner piece of the sheath and Nitinol wire were removed. Gentle injection of dilute contrast confirmed intravascular positioning. DSA was performed, with the fistula noted to be patent, however there was mild intimal hyperplasia resulting in mild stenosis within the stent complex. Venography was then performed centrally, demonstrating patency of the axillary vein, subclavian vein, and superior vena cava. A ___ wire was advanced through the micropuncture sheath. Exchange was made for a short 7 ___ sheath which was placed over the wire. A 9 mm x 4 cm Conquest balloon was advanced over the wire. Angioplasty was performed of the proximal aspect of the stent complex. The balloon was left inflated and DSA was performed, demonstrating patency of the arterial inflow, without stenosis. Subsequently, balloon angioplasty was performed progressively distally throughout the stent complex with the 9 mm balloon, in overlapping fashion to include the entire stent construct. Completion DSA in antegrade fashion through the 7 ___ sheath demonstrated near complete resolution of the initially noted intimal hyperplasia with no residual stenosis. The sheath was then removed and gentle manual pressure was held to assure hemostasis. The access site was bandaged in sterile fashion. Clinical examination revealed a satisfactory thrill along the length of the fistula. There were no immediate complications. FINDINGS: 1. Patent brachiocephalic fistula with stent complex near the arterial anastomosis which had mild in stent stenosis due to intimal hyperplasia. 2. Successful balloon angioplasty of the stent construct, with resolution of in stent stenosis. 3. Satisfactory appearance of the arterial anastomosis. No central venous stenosis. IMPRESSION: Successful balloon angioplasty of mild in stent stenosis due to intimal hyperplasia, with no residual stenosis seen post angioplasty.

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to the ___ after you had right-sided weakness which was due to a bleed, or hemorrhage, in a small part of your brain. This was probably caused by your blood pressure being uncontrolled while you were on a blood thinning medication. Your symptoms had dramatically improved by the time you were discharged. We worked closely with our nephrology team to come up with a good plan to manage your blood pressure without it going too high or too low. After you leave the hospital, it is very important to continue to monitor your blood pressure closely and to work with your primary care doctor to manage your medications. Because you have hypertension, high cholesterol, and a-fib, you are risk to have more strokes in the future. We adjusted your medications as below to minimize the risk of this happening. You are being discharged on a new blood pressure medication, Amlodipine, which you should take every day. You should wait until after dialysis ___ hours) to take it on the days you have dialysis. We are also restarting your Coumadin, a blood thinning medication to help prevent future strokes. You should continue to take your anti-cholesterol medication, atorvastatin, every day. Finally, you were diagnosed with a urinary tract infection prior to discharge and were prescribed an antibiotic, Bactrim, which you should take for a total of 7 days (starting ___. You should take it after dialysis on the days when you have dialysis. Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below.

Lungs clear. Heart size normal. No pleural abnormality. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MRI of the Abdomen INDICATION: History of polycystic kidney disease, presenting with gram negative bacteremia of unclear source. Evaluate for liver or kidney infection. TECHNIQUE: T1- and T2-weighted multiplanar images of the abdomen were acquired in a 1.5 T magnet. Intravenous contrast: None, given the patient's acute kidney injury. COMPARISON: Abdominal ultrasound from ___. CT of the abdomen and pelvis from ___. FINDINGS: Lower Thorax: There are small bilateral pleural effusions. Within the limitations of MRI, the lung bases are otherwise clear. The base of the heart is normal in size. There is no pericardial effusion. Liver: The liver is normal in shape and contour without morphologic features of cirrhosis. There are innumerable cysts in the liver, some of which are intrinsically hyperintense on the precontrast T1 weighted images, suggesting proteinaceous or hemorrhagic contents. Within the limitations of this noncontrast exam, none have overtly concerning features. The largest cyst in the right lobe is 39 x 38 mm (15, 21), and has layering proteinaceous debris or hemorrhage. The largest cyst in the left lobe is 45 x 46 mm (15, 22), and is simple. There is no obvious evidence of infection, such as a thickened rim or surrounding parenchyma abnormalities, in any of the cysts. Biliary: There is no intrahepatic biliary duct dilation. The common bile duct measures 7 mm, which is mildly prominent for a patient of this age. It tapers smoothly to the ampulla without evidence of a mass or choledocholithiasis. The gallbladder is not visualized, and presumed to be surgically absent. Pancreas: The pancreatic parenchyma is normal in signal there is no duct dilation or solid mass. A few tiny subcentimeter cysts are noted. Spleen: The spleen is enlarged, measuring 16.6 cm. There are no focal lesions. Adrenal Glands: The bilateral adrenal glands are normal. Kidneys: The right kidney is surgically absent. There is no abnormality in the gallbladder fossa. The left kidney is enlarged, and completely replaced by cysts. No normal parenchyma is identified. The majority of the cysts have some intrinsic hyperintensity on the precontrast T1 weighted images, suggesting proteinaceous or hemorrhagic debris. The debris is layering within many of the cysts. There are no obviously concerning features, though the exam is limited by the lack of intravenous contrast. None are significantly thick rimmed or have the appearance of an infected cyst. Note, the transplanted kidney is not included in the field of view on this abdominal MRI. Gastrointestinal Tract: The stomach and small bowel are normal in course and caliber. There is no evidence of obstruction. The imaged portions of the large bowel are normal. There is no ascites. Lymph Nodes: There is no periportal, retroperitoneal, or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Vasculature: The abdominal aorta is normal in caliber without evidence of an aneurysm. There is moderate atherosclerotic plaque. Osseous and Soft Tissue Structures: There are no concerning osseous lesions. Mild multilevel degenerative changes are noted throughout the spine. Postsurgical changes are noted in the anterior abdominal wall. There is no evidence of a hernia or fluid collection. The soft tissues are otherwise unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. Innumerable cysts in the liver and left kidney, as well as several small cysts in the pancreas, in keeping with the history of polycystic kidney disease. Many of them have hemorrhagic or proteinaceous material, though none have overtly concerning features or evidence of an obvious infection on this limited noncontrast exam. 2. Status post right nephrectomy. No abnormality in the surgical bed. 3. Splenomegaly. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST PORT INDICATION: ___ year old man with persistent gram-negative rod bacteremia and headache concerning for intracranial process. Evaluate for abscess or other intracranial process. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1 weighted, and axial T2 weighted, FLAIR, gradient echo, and diffusion-weighted images of the brain were obtained. Intravenous contrast was withheld due to poor renal function. COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Diffusion weighted and gradient echo images are mildly limited by motion artifact. T2 weighted and FLAIR images were successfully repeated with motion reducing technique. There is no evidence for edema, mass effect, abnormal diffusion, blood products, or other signal abnormalities in the brain parenchyma. FLAIR images demonstrate no signal abnormality in the sulci to suggest meningitis. There is no extra-axial collection. Ventricles, sulci, and basal cisterns are normal in size. Cerebellar tonsils are normally positioned. Major intravascular flow voids are grossly preserved. There is moderate mucosal thickening and trace aerosolized secretions in the left maxillary sinus. There is mucosal thickening in left greater than right ethmoid air cells with complete opacification of the left anterior ethmoid air cell. There is mild mucosal thickening in the right maxillary and left sphenoid sinuses. There is trace fluid in bilateral mastoid air cells. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence for parenchymal abnormalities on noncontrast MRI. No extra-axial collection. No evidence for meningitis on FLAIR images; however, CSF studies would be more sensitive for meningitis. 2. Paranasal sinus abnormalities and trace fluid in bilateral mastoid air cells may be secondary to prolonged supine positioning in the inpatient setting. However, please correlate clinically whether there may be associated infectious symptoms.

Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to ___ due to an infection in your bloodstream; you received intravenous antibiotics. Your blood was checked daily until it was clear of the infection. You underwent a number of laboratory and imaging studies to determine the source of infection, which were unrevealing. Due to the severity of the infection, a PICC line was placed; you will continue on intravenous ceftriaxone 2gm daily through ___ (a 4-week course); the Infectious Disease doctors at ___ then determine whether you need a longer course of antibiotics or if you can stop at that time. In addition, during your stay, your immunosuppression was monitored closely. You should continue taking tacrolimus 1.5mg twice daily, Cellcept 500mg twice daily, and prednisone 5mg daily. Because you had a decrease in your white blood cell count during your stay, your Bactrim was stopped; you should take Dapsone 1500mg daily for prevention of infection while on chronic steroids. Please follow up with your Transplant doctor to monitor these medications. Thank you for letting us be a part of your care! Your ___ Kidney Team

COMPARISON: The liver/gallbladder ultrasound from ___. FINDINGS: A pigtail catheter ends within the region of the previously seen biloma within the gallbladder resection bed. There is no definite remaining fluid collection within this area. A cyst within the left lobe of the liver is stable in appearance. The liver echogenicity and echotexture are grossly normal. There is no intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation. The portal vein is patent. The spleen is normal in size, measuring 10.2 cm. Scanning along the surgical tube within the right mid abdomen/periumbilical region elicited significant discomfort. No fluid collection was seen along the tube, however. IMPRESSION: 1. Pain with scanning along the surgical drain over the mid abdomen/periumbilical region. No fluid collection is identified along this drain to suggest abscess formation, however. 2. Likely interval resolution of the previously seen biloma in the gallbladder resection bed with a pigtail catheter remaining in place. 3. Stable liver cyst. Radiology Report INDICATION: Prior biloma with ___ drains in place. Patient with abdominal tenderness. Please evaluate for inflammation around prior biloma. TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired from the lung bases to the lesser trochanters following administration of both oral and intravenous contrast material. Multiplanar reformations were performed. COMPARISON: Reference CT abdomen from ___, reference CT abdomen from ___. ABDOMEN CT: The visualized portions of the lung bases are clear. Pacer leads are seen within the right atrium and right ventricle. As seen on prior CT from ___, there are scattered liver cysts, measuring up to 3.7 cm in the left hepatic lobe (2:12), not significantly changed in size. There is no intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation. The portal vein is patent. The patient is status post cholecystectomy. A pigtail catheter is seen within the gallbladder resection bed along the edge of a small gallbladder fossa fluid collection, markedly decreased in size compared to ___, now measuring 5.9 x 1.6 cm in its greatest axial dimension, compared to 10.2 x 3.4 cm previously. Small foci of air within this collection likely relate to the presence of the pigtail catheter. A second likely subcapsular collection is seen along the inferior right hepatic lobe (2:27). This collection was seen previously on CT from ___, although appears to be more organized on the present study with a new thick surrounding rind. The overall size of this collection does not appear appreciably changed. A biliary stent is noted extending down the common duct and into the second portion of the duodenum. The spleen, pancreas, and adrenal glands are unremarkable. Scattered bilateral renal hypodensities are not significantly changed in size or number, at least one of which is a simple cyst and others of which are too small to characterize. The kidneys are otherwise unremarkable. The stomach, small bowel, and colon are unremarkable. There is no significant quantity of free fluid in the abdomen. No free air is noted. There are no pathologically enlarged abdominal lymph nodes. A surgical drain enters the right mid abdomen, loops within the pelvis and then ends near the hepatic flexure. There is reactive change along the distal catheter with associated fat stranding (60___:22) although no associated fluid collection is seen. PELVIS CT: The bladder and prostate are grossly unremarkable. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. No pathologically enlarged pelvic lymph nodes are seen. BONE WINDOW: No suspicious lytic or blastic lesions are identified. Mild multilevel degenerative changes of the thoracolumbar spine are noted. IMPRESSION: 1. Interval decrease in size of the fluid collection within the gallbladder resection bed compared to CT from ___, although the collection has not completely drained. The pigtail catheter is seen along the edge of the collection and correlation with catheter output is recommended to ensure proper positioning. 2.

Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure caring for you here at ___. You came to the hospital because of arm and leg pains and nodules on your skin. We had the rheumatologists, infectious disease doctors as ___ as the dermatologists see you while you were here. For your pain we gave you ibuprofen, oxycontin and oxycodone. To avoid stomach irritation, please take zantac (ranitidine) or pepcid (famotidine) while you are on ibuprofen. Also while here you were found to be anemic. You had no blood in your stool, and it seems that the inflammation may be causing your blood counts to be low. With improvement of the inflammation, we expect the anemia to improve. Please follow up with your primary care doctor and rheumatologist. Your primary care doctor ___ coordinate the appointment with your rheumatologist. There are still several tests pending and your PCP ___ be informed of the results. The rheumatologists who saw you here will communicate with your rheumatologist to update her on your hospital course. After we confirm you do not have TB you will likely be started on prednisone. Expect a call from the rheumatologists tomorrow.

Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK INDICATION: Right facial droop and slurred speech. Evaluate for intra cerebral hemorrhage or CVA. TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images were obtained through the brain without contrast material. Subsequently, rapid axial imaging was performed from the aortic arch through the brain during infusion of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Three-dimensional angiographic Images were generated. DOSE: DLP: 2360.74 mGy-cm COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: NONENHANCED HEAD CT: There is no acute hemorrhage, edema or shift of the normally midline structures. The ventricles and sulci are of normal size and configuration for age. Confluent, periventricular white matter hypodensities, while nonspecific, are presumably sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. Otherwise, the gray-white matter differentiation is preserved and there is no evidence for an acute, vascular territorial infarction. The basal cisterns are patent. There is no fracture. The included paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are well-aerated. The lenses and globes are unremarkable. HEAD AND NECK CTA: The carotid and vertebral arteries and their major branches are patent with no evidence of stenoses. The distal cervical internal carotid arteries measure 5.5 mm in diameter on the left and 5.4 mm in diameter on the right. There is no evidence of aneurysm formation or other vascular abnormality. The lung apices are clear. The known hilar lymphadenopathy was not fully imaged. The thyroid is unchanged from the thyroid ultrasound of ___. The bones are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial process. Please note, MRI is more sensitive for detecting acute ischemia. 2. No thrombosis, aneurysm or dissection within the principal arteries of the head and neck. 3. This report is provided without 3D and curved reformats. When these images are available, and if additional information is obtained, then an addendum may be given to this report. Radiology Report INDICATION: Chest pain. Evaluate for pneumonia. TECHNIQUE: Bedside frontal chest radiograph. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph ___ and chest CT ___. FINDINGS: The lung volumes are low, resulting in crowding of bronchovascular structures. Bibasilar opacities are likely atelectasis, however, pneumonia could be considered in the correct clinical setting. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy is unchanged. Heart is mildly enlarged but unchanged. There is mild pulmonary edema. IMPRESSION: 1. Bibasilar opacities are likely atelectasis with low lung volumes, however, pneumonia could be considered in the correct clinical setting. 2. Mild pulmonary edema. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ year old man with transient right facial droop. Evaluate for ischemia. TECHNIQUE: Sagittal T1 weighted imaging was performed. Axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, diffusion, and T2 technique. COMPARISON: CTA head and neck ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute infarction, edema, mass effect, or blood products. There are numerous foci of patchy and confluent T2/FLAIR hyperintensity in the subcortical, deep, and periventricular white matter. These are nonspecific but commonly seen due to severe chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size for age. There is mild mucosal thickening of the frontal and ethmoid sinuses. There is scattered fluid in the right mastoid air cells. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute infarct. 2. Extensive supratentorial white matter signal abnormalities, nonspecific but likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease in a patient of this age.

Dear Mr. ___, You were hospitalized due to the sudden onset of a right facial droop, headache, and chest pain. You had a CT and MRI of your brain which showed that you did not have a stroke. The symptoms you experienced were most likely due to a complex migraine, which is a type of headache. You have an appointment with Neurology to follow up. We are not making any changes to your regular medications. Please continue to take your regular medications as prescribed. Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. It was a pleasure providing you with care during this hospitalization. -The ___ Neurology Team

Chief Complaint: Patient without Chief Complaint, per ED consult has history of behavioral changes and sleep disturbances Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: ___ is a ___ year-old man with history of history ?afib/WPW on A/C, HTN, CHF, cirrhosis/EtOH, and 2wks ago wide exision of sarcoma resection bed (RLE). He was in his USOH until he underwent skin grafting on his RLE last ___. Following this, he has been complaining frequently of pain in that leg/ankle, and while taking several sedating medications, he developed drowsiness and mild behavioral changes. . His behavior was normal until ___ morning. At that time, his wife noticed that he was falling asleep at the breakfast table. He said he wanted to walk downstairs to put up his leg and watch TV. She argued against this (due to concern for falling on the stairs given his drowsy state and gait instability since the surgeries), but he went anyway. He had to catch himself on the wall near the bottom few stairs and sat on the staircase while she helped him up (no fall/trauma). He watched TV and dozed in his chair. His daughter says that he looked "fine" in the afternoon when she visited. His wife said that he would close his eyes and keep talking or mumbling sometimes, and that all his extremities would twitch or jerk briefly when he closed his eyes sometimes (I witnessed this in the ED room, see below). That night (___), he went to bed early, around 7:30pm, which is very out of character for him. His daughter checked on him, and he told her, "I'm fine, I just need rest." His wife says he arose at least 6x during the night to use his bedside urine container. This morning, he told his wife that he was speaking with his sister (in ___ on the phone, but there was no one there and no phone. She called the orthopedics office to discuss -- nurse there recommended 911, ED. . His wife and ___ say that he has no history of stroke or seizure. Never, at any time, was his speech slurred or garbled. Never was his comprehension abnormal. He never complained of weakness or numbness. A couple days ago, he mentioned blurry vision to his wife, in passing, but this resolved. No sustained or rhythmic jerking movements at any time. . His wife says he was prescribed a bottle of 40 tabs of oxycodone 5mg (q4h PRN). This was adequate for pain control for the first week, but this past ___, he said 5mg q4hrs was not cutting it for his pain. She says it is unusual for him to want to take medications of any kind. ___, she spoke with a nurse from the orthopedist's office, who suggested increasing to two tabs (10mg q4hrs). She gave him 10mg ___ night around 11pm. He got another 5mg and 5mg ___ morning and afternoon (none ___ evening), and the last dose of oxycodone was 5mg yesterday morning with breakfast (___). A visiting nurse suggested stopping the oxycodone at that point (started Tylenol) due to behavioral changes, as described above. In addition to the oxycodone, he was prescribed Ambien, which he took for a week after the skin grafting, then stopped this past ___ due to concern for sedating side-effects. Since that time (the past four nights), he has been taking 50mg of Benadryl every night. Also, his wife and daughter say that he stopped drinking on ___ (since the surgery). Prior to that, he drank ___ beers and a "nip" of ___ whiskey every night. The wife says he usually hides his EtOH intake from her, but they do not think he had anything to drink this past week. The daughter said his food intake is good (eggs, fruit, and milk every morning), but his fluid intake is poor. He was BIBA to our ED. NAD. VS and routine lab studies unremarkable (other than irreg HR in the ___, c/w h/o afib).

Dear Mr. ___, . It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___. You were admitted due to having sleep disturbances and a concern for a change in your behavior. After initial evaluation in the ED there was concern that you might have had a stroke, and therfore you were admitted to the Neurology Service. An initial scan of your head was performed (CT Scan) and was reassuring. Afterwards you had another more detailed scan (MRI) to evaluate for stroke and it demonstrated no evidence of stroke, bleeding, masses or other clearly contributory changes. There were no obvious vessel abnormalities. In addition, several investigatory studies were done to evaluate for other causes of cognitive change; there were no signs of significant infectious or toxic-metabolic disturbances. It is thought that your thinking and behavior changed in the setting of increased use of pain medication and sleep aids. We stopped these agents (oxycodone, ambien, benadryl) at the time of admission, with excellent improvement in your thinking. (The abnormalities noted at the admission exam completely resolved as well.) We recommend you refrain from taking these medications in the future; please use tylenol (eg 650 mg every four hours as needed for pain). . We made the following changes to your medications: - discontinue ambien - discontinue benadryl - discontinue oxycodone . Please start thiamine, folate, and a multivitamin. . As you were discharged on the weekend, we were unable to schedule follow up appointments for you. Please coordinate an appointment with Dr. ___ (___).

This is his third admission for identical symptoms within the last 2 months. ___ is unable to provide history given mental status so history obtained from his daughter who is his primary care taker. Per daughter, patient has been fine, at his baseline mental and functional status all week until yesterday. In fact, yesterday morning he walked with a walker, ate breakast as he typically does and was doing well. She returned from her afternoon walk and found him laying in his bed, confused, not answer questions and shivering. He also had abdominal distension and pain with palpation of his abdomen. She took his temperature and it was 101, she gave him 500mg PO Tylenol and watched him, he was no better and mounted another fever 4 hours later for which she gave him another 650mg tylenol. He had an "extra large" bowel movement and his abdomen pain resolved but by morning he was still shivering and confused so she brought him to the ED. In the ED, initial vitals were 98.5 91 73/47 19 99% RA. Labs were notable for marked leukocytosis, acute renal failure and elevated lactate. UA was grossly positive and CXR showing atelectasis. CT showing dilated sigmoid colon concerning for Ogilve. He was started on IV Vanc and Cefepime for possible UTI and/or pneumonia and admitted to medicine. Of note, this presentation is identical to his last two admissions. During prior admissions he was found to have a UTI, the first time treated with zosyn and he was transitioned to macrobid to complete a ___fter Cx returned E.Coli with significant resistance pattern. Last admissions his Cx returned positive for resistant Klebsiella and he was discharged to continue IV Meropenem. Regarding his BPH history, patient has had multiple admissions (4x in ___, 4x in ___ at ___ for UTI, urosepsis, or pyelonephritis. He has been evaluated by urology as inpatient for complicated foley placement and their complications as well as outpatient for voiding trial. He was started initially on macrobid for UTI ppx but now is on Fosfomycin QWeekly. On the floor, patient is confused, unable to communicate and appears to br shivering. Daughter is at the bedside and provides history. She reports his abdomen is much softer than before and he is no longer having abdominal pain and this is his baseline abdominal exam.

COMPARISON: Chest radiograph dated ___. FINDINGS: Low lung volumes. Left infrahilar consolidation is probably atelectasis rather than pneumonia because of leftward mediastinal shift and depression of the left hilus indicating volume loss. No pulmonary edema or consolidation elsewhere. Moderate cardiomegaly. No pleural abnormality. Lucency under the right hemidiaphragm is probably due to distended bowel loops rather than pneumo peritoneum. IMPRESSION: 1. Bilateral medial lung base atelectasis or pneumonia. 2. Lucency under the right hemidiaphragm may be related to distended bowel loops. The possibility of pneumoperitoneum will be resolved on the pending abdominal CT. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST INDICATION: History: ___ with cough, eval for pnacough, eval for pnaabd swelling, eval for intrabdominal infectionconfusion, eval for bleed in head// cough, eval for pnaabd swelling, eval for intrabdominal infectionconfusion, eval for bleed in head TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations as well as bone algorithm reconstructions were provided and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP (Head) = 714 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: Head CT dated ___. FINDINGS: There is no evidence of acute territory infarction,hemorrhage,edema,or mass effect. Subcortical, deep, and periventricular white matter hypodensities are nonspecific, but likely represent chronic microvascular ischemic disease. There is prominence of the ventricles and sulci suggestive of involutional changes. There is no evidence of acute fracture. Mild mucosal thickening within the right sphenoid sinus. Otherwise, the visualized portion of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial process. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT abdomen and pelvis with IV contrast. INDICATION: ___ with cough, eval for pnacough, eval for pnaabd swelling, eval for intrabdominal infection. TECHNIQUE: Single phase split bolus contrast: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis following intravenous contrast administration with split bolus technique. Oral contrast was not administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed and reviewed on PACS. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 624 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT abdomen and pelvis dated ___. FINDINGS: LOWER CHEST: Dependent atelectasis at the lung bases bilaterally. No focal consolidations. No pleural or pericardial effusion. Cardiomegaly. Dense aortic valvular calcifications are visualized. ABDOMEN: HEPATOBILIARY: Subcentimeter hypodensity within the right lobe is too small to characterize, but likely represents a simple cyst or biliary hamartoma (series 2, image 22). Otherwise, the liver demonstrates homogenous attenuation throughout. There is no evidence of solid lesions. There is no evidence of intrahepatic dilatation. The common bile duct is prominent, but tapers distally, unchanged compared to prior. Multiple stones are seen within the decompressed gallbladder (series 2, image 32). 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: Multiple hypodensities are seen within the kidneys bilaterally, some of which are too small to characterize, others are consistent with simple cysts, and with intermediate density (series 2, image 33), likely represent proteinaceous cysts, unchanged compared to prior. Otherwise, the kidneys are of normal and symmetric size with normal nephrogram. There is no evidence of solid renal lesions or hydronephrosis. There is no perinephric abnormality. GASTROINTESTINAL: Small hiatal hernia. The stomach is unremarkable. Again seen are multiple dilated fluid and air-filled loops of small and large bowel. The sigmoid is markedly dilated in comparison to ___ measuring up to 13.6 cm (series 2, image 52). There is no transition point to suggest an obstruction, and there is air and fluid within the rectum. There is no bowel wall thickening. The bowel wall enhances normally throughout. The appendix is not visualized. PELVIS: The urinary bladder and distal ureters are unremarkable. There is no free fluid in the pelvis. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The prostate is enlarged measuring 5.5 x 5.3 cm. LYMPH NODES: There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. Moderate atherosclerotic disease is noted. BONES: Multiple chronic appearing left posterior rib fractures are visualized. Moderate levoscoliosis of the lumbar spine. Bilateral pars defects with grade 1 anterolisthesis of L5 on S1 is unchanged. There is no evidence of worrisome osseous lesions or acute fracture. SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits. IMPRESSION: 1. Multiple dilated fluid and air-filled loops of small and large bowel. The sigmoid is markedly dilated compared to ___, but there is no transition point to suggest an obstruction. No bowel wall thickening. Again this may reflect ___ syndrome. 2. Other incidental findings include cholelithiasis and prostatomegaly.

Per the patient, she began feeling unwell last ___ with nausea, abdominal discomfort, decreased PO intake, dizziness and measured temperatures to ___ F. She describes the dizziness as occuring when walking and worse with sudden movement but not present if she is sitting/lying still. On ___, she saw an NP at her PCP's office where she was afebrile with T 93 but hypertensive BP 180/70. The nurse was concerned for "labyrinthitis and possibly due to otitis externa," for which she was prescribed topical Cortisporin drops and low-dose meclizine. She did not pick up the ear drops, but started taking meclizine, which she thought worsened her dizziness and subsequently discontinued. This morning, she woke up and attempted to drink a cup of coffee, which gave her significant nausea and abdominal discomfort and prompted her to come to ___ ED. ROS is positive for a dry cough that started around the time of her abdominal discomfort. She has also had a change in bowel habits - she typically has hard stools and takes daily metamucil and two stool softeners, but this past week she has had fewer bowel movements in the setting of PO intake followed by looser stools today. Notably negative for change in diet, sick contacts, F/C/CP/SOB, night sweats, weight loss/gain, headache, sinus tenderness, rhinorrhea,arthralgias or myalgias. In ___ ED, vital signs were 97.9 90 156/59 16 98% RA. Chem7 and CBC were unremarkable, and EKG was consistent with prior. CT Abd/Pelvis did not find any acute pathology to explain the patient's symptoms, but CXR showed new L upper lobe opacity concerning for infection.

Total DLP (Body) = 151 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: ___ FINDINGS: The aorta and its major branch vessels are patent, with no evidence of stenosis, occlusion, dissection, or aneurysmal formation. There is no evidence of penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer or aortic arch atheroma present. The pulmonary arteries are well opacified to the subsegmental level, with no evidence of filling defect within the main, right, left, lobar, segmental or subsegmental pulmonary arteries. The main and right pulmonary arteries are normal in caliber, and there is no evidence of right heart strain. Prevascular mediastinal lymphadenopathy is slightly improved compared to the prior examination, with individual nodes measuring up to 8 mm in short axis diameter, previously 1 cm. Prominence of soft tissue in the anterior mediastinum may relate in part to prominence of thymic tissue/thymic rebound. The thyroid gland appears unremarkable. There is no evidence of pericardial effusion. There is no pleural effusion. Minimal ground-glass opacities in the left lower lobe and lingula likely reflect subsegmental atelectasis; a trace component up superimposed inflammatory change or atypical infection cannot be excluded. In the left upper lobe medially, a linearly configured area of ground-glass opacity and volume loss might reflect subsegmental atelectasis, or postradiation change if this has been performed. Motion artifact on the prior CT limits comparison between studies. The airways are patent to the subsegmental level. Limited images of the upper abdomen show diffuse hypodensity of the hepatic parenchyma consistent with hepatic steatosis. The imaged portion of the upper pole of the spleen appears unremarkable. No lytic or blastic osseous lesion suspicious for malignancy is identified. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality. 2. Prominence of soft tissue in the anterior mediastinum most likely reflect thymic hyperplasia/rebound and can be reassessed at followup imaging. 3. Slight interval improvement in mediastinal lymphadenopathy. 4. Minimal subsegmental atelectasis and/or superimposed inflammatory/atypical infectious changes at the left base and left apex.

Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to the Acute Care Surgery service on ___ with a small bowel obstruction. You were taken to the operating room for an exploratory laparotomy with extensive lysis of adhesions and a connection made between your intestines to bypass the obstructed area. After surgery you continued to show signs of infection and a CT scan showed an acute infection in your gallbladder. You were too sick to undergo a second operation at this time and therefore you were given IV antibiotics and had a drain places to remove the infected fluid. You were also found to have infection in your urine and stool for which you were treated with appropriate antibitoics based on the cultures. While in the hospital you developed fluid in your lung for which you had a pigtail drain placed to help improve your breathing. Once the fluid was removed, the drain was taken out and your lungs remained inflated. Your existing percutaneous nephrostomy tube accidently became dislodged and was replaced by the interventional radiologists on ___. The lower portion of your surgical wound was opened to allow extra fluid to drain and prevent infection. You should continue to pack this wound with dry kerlex to allow it to heal from the inside. Due to your extended stay in the hospital, you became deconditioned. The physical therapy team worked with you and recommended discharge to an acute rehab to continue your recovery. You are now doing better, tolerating a regular diet, breathing comfortably on room air, and your infections are improving with antibiotic treatment. You are now ready to be discharged to rehab with the following discharge instructions: Please call your doctor or nurse practitioner or return to the Emergency Department for any of the following: *You experience new chest pain, pressure, squeezing or tightness. *New or worsening cough, shortness of breath, or wheeze. *If you are vomiting and cannot keep down fluids or your medications. *You are getting dehydrated due to continued vomiting, diarrhea, or other reasons. Signs of dehydration include dry mouth, rapid heartbeat, or feeling dizzy or faint when standing. *You see blood or dark/black material when you vomit or have a bowel movement. *You experience burning when you urinate, have blood in your urine, or experience a discharge. *Your pain in not improving within ___ hours or is not gone within 24 hours. Call or return immediately if your pain is getting worse or changes location or moving to your chest or back. *You have shaking chills, or fever greater than 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit or 38 degrees Celsius. *Any change in your symptoms, or any new symptoms that concern you. Please resume all regular home medications, unless specifically advised not to take a particular medication. Also, please take any new medications as prescribed. Please get plenty of rest, continue to ambulate several times per day, and drink adequate amounts of fluids. Avoid lifting weights greater than ___ lbs until you follow-up with your surgeon. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery while taking pain medications. Incision Care: *Please call your doctor or nurse practitioner if you have increased pain, swelling, redness, or drainage from the incision site. *Avoid swimming and baths until your follow-up appointment. *You may shower, and wash surgical incisions with a mild soap and warm water. Gently pat the area dry. *If you have staples, they will be removed at your follow-up appointment. *If you have steri-strips, they will fall off on their own. Please remove any remaining strips ___ days after surgery.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report INDICATION: ___ female with HCV cirrhosis, status post splenic rupture three weeks prior and splenic artery embolization, now with continuing pain, assess for phlegmon. COMPARISONS: CT abdomen and pelvis from ___ dated ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT-acquired axial images were obtained from the dome of the liver to the pubic symphysis after the uneventful administration of 130 mL of Omnipaque. Oral contrast was also administered. Coronal and sagittal reformations were provided and reviewed. DLP: 587.69 mGy-cm. CHEST: The visualized lung bases demonstrate bilateral pleural effusions, small on the right and moderate sized on the left. There is left lower lobar atelectasis seen within the left lung and adjacent compressive atelectasis seen on the right. There are no pulmonary nodules or masses. The visualized portion of the heart is top normal in size, and there is no pericardial effusion. ABDOMEN: A nodular contour to the liver is compatible with known diagnosis of hepatitis C cirrhosis. The gallbladder is normal, and there is no intrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. The adrenal glands are normal. The kidneys enhance symmetrically and excrete contrast without hydronephrosis. Streak artifact from splenic artery embolization limits complete evaluation of the pancreas, although to the extent visualized, it appears normal. A gastric band is present with its port in the left anterior subcutaneous tissues. The small and large bowel are normal without evidence of bowel wall thickening. There is a trace amount of intra-abdominal ascites. There is no free air. The spleen is enlarged, measuring 18 cm in the craniocaudal dimension which has increased slightly from prior. Embolization coils are seen at the splenic hilum within the renal artery. There is a large subcapsular hematoma/liquified splenic tissue with minimal residual enhancing splenic tissue. There is no evidence for extracapsular extension. PELVIS: Free fluid from the abdomen is noted in the posterior cul-de-sac. The bladder, rectum and sigmoid are normal. The uterus and adnexa are not definitively identified. There is no inguinal or pelvic sidewall lymphadenopathy. BONES: There are no suspicious osseous lesions. A sclerotic focus seen in the posterior portion of the right iliac wing likely represents a bone island. Degenerative changes of the lower lumbar spine are marked by disc space narrowing and vacuum phenomenon seen between L3-L4. IMPRESSION: 1. Splenic enlargement compared to prior likely secondary to an intracapsular hematoma and liquification status post embolization. Minimal amount of residual enhancing splenic tissue is noted. Superinfection is not excluded, although lack of a thickened and enhancing rim would make this less likely. There is no evidence of extracapsular extension. 2.

Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK Q16 CT NECK INDICATION: History: ___ with right basal ganglia hemorrhagic stroke// avm, aneurysm 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 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 10.0 s, 17.0 cm; CTDIvol = 48.8 mGy (Head) DLP = 829.0 mGy-cm. 2) Stationary Acquisition 0.5 s, 1.0 cm; CTDIvol = 3.7 mGy (Head) DLP = 3.7 mGy-cm. 3) Stationary Acquisition 5.5 s, 1.0 cm; CTDIvol = 41.1 mGy (Head) DLP = 41.1 mGy-cm. 4) Spiral Acquisition 9.8 s, 37.5 cm; CTDIvol = 37.9 mGy (Head) DLP = 1,361.1 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 2,263 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CT head without contrast ___. FINDINGS: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST: There has been a slight increase in the moderate amount of blood pooling within the temporal and occipital horns of the right lateral ventricle with the temporal horn being slightly expanded, as before. New trace amount of blood is also present within the left lateral ventricle occipital horn. Redemonstrated is intraparenchymal extension of blood just superior to the right lateral ventricle temporal horn in the region of the basal ganglia where there is mild surrounding vasogenic edema. There is mild-to-moderate subcortical and periventricular white matter hypoattenuation compatible with small vessel disease. Abutting the body of the right caudate nucleus is a small old infarct (03:27). The visualized portion of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. CTA HEAD: There is evidence of a spot sign within the occipital the right lateral ventricle (7:301). The vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches appear normal without stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation. The dural venous sinuses are patent. CTA NECK: There are atherosclerotic calcifications of the intracranial vertebral arteries as well as of the origin and mid right cervical vertebral artery. The carotid and vertebral arteries and their major branches appear otherwise normal with no evidence of stenosis or occlusion. There is no evidence of internal carotid stenosis by NASCET criteria. OTHER: There is a 2 mm left upper lobe pulmonary nodule adjacent to the major fissure (07:12). There are a couple bilateral thyroid nodules measuring up to 1.4 cm in the left thyroid lobe. There are several prominent and enlarged nodes involving nearly all cervical stations. Largest lymph node is present within the right submandibular station measuring 1.2 x 2.6 cm in greatest axial ___. IMPRESSION: 1. Slight increase in moderate amount of intraventricular blood described above. Of note, on CTA there is evidence a potential spot sign in the region of the right lateral ventricle occipital horn raising concern for potential active bleeding. 2. Redemonstrated evidence of intraparenchymal extension blood just superior to right lateral ventricle temporal horn in the region of the basal ganglia where there is mild surrounding vasogenic edema. 3. Evidence of mild-to-moderate white matter small vessel disease. 4. Small old infarct abutting the body of the right caudate nucleus. 5. Extensive cervical lymphadenopathy likely correlates with the patient's history of CLL. 6. A 2 mm left upper lobe pulmonary nodule for which no imaging follow-up is recommended in low risk patients. High-risk patients may receive an optional follow-up CT in 12 months per the ___ ___ criteria. 7. Couple thyroid nodules measuring up to 1.4 cm for which no follow-up imaging is recommended. RECOMMENDATION(S): Thyroid nodule. No follow up recommended. Absent suspicious imaging features, unless there is additional clinical concern, ___ College of Radiology guidelines do not recommend further evaluation for incidental thyroid nodules less than 1.0 cm in patients under age ___ or less than 1.5 cm in patients age ___ or older. Suspicious findings include: Abnormal lymph nodes (those displaying enlargement, calcification, cystic components and/or increased enhancement) or invasion of local tissues by the thyroid nodule. ___, et al, "Managing Incidental Thyroid Nodules Detected on Imaging: White Paper of the ACR Incidental Findings Committee". J ___ ___ 12:143-150. NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with ___, M.D. by ___ ___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 12:32 pm, 10 minutes after discovery of the findings. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST T___ MR HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old man with intraventricular hemorrhage. Evaluate for underlying mass. 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 without contrast from ___. CTA head and neck from ___. FINDINGS: No significant change in the parenchymal hematoma centered within the basal ganglia and extending into the medial right temporal lobe, with stable surrounding edema, compared to the earlier same-day CT. Extension of hemorrhage into the temporal and occipital horns of the right lateral ventricle, and occipital horn of left lateral ventricle, is stable. Temporal horn of the right lateral ventricle remains compressed. The remainder of the ventricular system is mildly prominent, unchanged, which may be due to global parenchymal volume loss. There is commensurate mild prominence of the sulci. The above described parenchymal hematoma demonstrates isointensity to minimal hyperintensity on precontrast T1 weighted images. No postcontrast T1 weighted images were performed due to technical air. Postcontrast MP RAGE images demonstrate small foci of contrast enhancement within the lentiform nucleus as well as medial temporal portions of the hematoma. Diffusion-weighted images demonstrate patchy signal abnormality throughout the parenchymal hematoma, which may in part be related to susceptibility artifact, without evidence for slow diffusion outside the margins of the hematoma. Extensive bilateral T2/FLAIR hyperintensities in the subcortical, deep, and periventricular white matter of the cerebral hemispheres, as well as in the bilateral pons, are nonspecific but likely sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease in this age group. There are several chronic infarcts in the right corona radiata, left frontal corona radiata and centrum semiovale, and left pons. 2 mm rounded focus of relatively low signal (but not flow void) to the right of the distal basilar artery flow void on image 8:7 is likely artifactual, as no abnormality is seen on this location on the ___ CTA. The major intracranial vascular flow voids are otherwise grossly preserved. Dural venous sinuses appear patent on postcontrast MP RAGE images. There is mild mucosal thickening of the ethmoid air cells and maxillary sinuses. IMPRESSION: 1. Stable hematoma in the right basal ganglia and medial temporal lobe with stable surrounding edema and stable intraventricular extension. 2. Several small foci of contrast enhancement within the basal ganglia and medial temporal lobe portions of the hematoma, without peripheral masslike enhancement outside the margins of the hematoma, are of uncertain clinical significance. Follow-up imaging is needed to exclude an underlying mass. 3. Extensive supratentorial white matter and pontine signal abnormalities, nonspecific but likely sequela of small vessel disease. Small chronic infarcts within bilateral corona radiata, left centrum semiovale, and left pons. RECOMMENDATION(S): Follow up MRI with and without contrast to assess for resolution of contrast enhancement at the site of the right basal ganglia/medial temporal lobe hematoma. Radiology Report EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Q111 CT HEAD INDICATION: ___ year old man with R BG IPH w/ ?spot sign// Assess for progression of hemorrhage TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without contrast. DOSE: Acquisition sequence: 1) Sequenced Acquisition 11.0 s, 18.7 cm; CTDIvol = 48.8 mGy (Head) DLP = 911.9 mGy-cm. 2) Sequenced Acquisition 3.0 s, 5.1 cm; CTDIvol = 48.8 mGy (Head) DLP = 248.7 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 1,175 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: CTA head and neck ___ at 17:45 FINDINGS: There has been minimal discernible change with minimal redistribution in the intraparenchymal hemorrhage in the region of right basal ganglia with breakthrough in layering into the temporal and occipital horns of the right lateral ventricle and occipital horn of the left lateral ventricle. Surrounding vasogenic edema is also similar to prior. No discernible midline shift. Basal cisterns remain patent. There is unchanged hypodensity adjacent to the body of the right caudate nucleus, likely prior lacune. Mild-to-moderate subcortical, periventricular, and deep white matter hypodensities are similar to prior and likely represent sequela of chronic microvascular ischemic disease. There is no evidence of fracture. The visualized portion of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: Essentially unchanged intraparenchymal hemorrhage with only minimal redistribution in the region of the right basal ganglia with breakthrough and layering into the temporal and occipital horns of the right lateral ventricle and occipital horn left lateral ventricle. Similar surrounding vasogenic edema. No discernible midline shift. Basal cisterns remain patent.

Followup Instructions: ___ Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ man with a history of lung cancer presenting with chest pain. COMPARISONS: Comparison is made with a chest radiograph dated ___, for ___, medical record number ___, clip number ___. FINDINGS: There is a hazy, heterogeneous opacity in the right lower lobe which may represent infection, tumor infiltration, atelectasis, or a combination of all three. Widening of the mediastinum is caused by the patient's known malignancy. The left lung and upper right lung are mostly clear. There is no pneumothorax. A right pleural effusion is undoubtedly present. IMPRESSION: Right lower lobe opacity is likely a combination of tumor infiltration, atelectasis, and infection cannot be rule out. This area will be further evaluated on the subsequent CT angiogram. Radiology Report HISTORY: ___ man with lung cancer presenting with chest pain and shortness of breath. Evaluate for pulmonary embolism. COMPARISONS: Chest CT from ___. TECHNIQUE: MDCT-acquired axial images of the chest were obtained in the early arterial phase during rapid injection of 100 mL of Omnipaque intravenous contrast material. Coronal and sagittal reformats as well as oblique maximal intensity projection images provided and reviewed. DLP: 472.14 mGy-cm. FINDINGS: There are no pulmonary arterial filling defects to suggest presence of pulmonary embolism. Thoracic aorta is of normal caliber without dissection. There is a large heterogeneously enhancing mass originating in the right lower lung and infiltrating throughout the upper and lower mediastinum. There are areas of low density, suggestive of necrosis. The mass partially compresses the right main pulmonary artery and its branches. The superior vena cava is partially infiltrated and compressed. The posterior branches of the right pulmonary vein are obliterated. The mass causes compression of the left atrium. There is narrowing of the right main stem bronchus as well as the lobar branches as they traverse through the mass. There are soft tissue protuberances into the lobar branches of the right bronchus concerning for endobronchial invasion (2:60). There is more diffuse tumor infiltration into the right lower lobe parenchyma as well as an accompanying moderate right pleural effusion, likely malignant given the proximity of the tumor. There is a component of atelectasis in the right lower lobe as well. Likely much of the mass is also comprised of malignant lymph nodes. There is lymph node metastasis to the left axillary station with the largest measuring 2.4 x 2.0 cm (2:34). The largest lymph node in the right axilla measures 1.5 x 1.6 cm (2:16). Limited evaluation of the upper abdomen reveals pathologically enlarged paraesophageal lymph node at the hiatus measuring 1.8 x 1.4 cm (2:99). There is a small hiatal hernia. There are metastases to the right anterior fifth and sixth ribs with soft tissue expansion and lytic destruction (2:68, 602B:13). There are no concerning lesions in the spine. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or acute aortic syndrome. 2. Large infiltrative right hilar lung mass with extension into the mediastinum, much progressed from the prior study. 3. The mass causes compression of the right pulmonary artery, obliteration of the right pulmonary veins, narrowing of the right mainstem and lobar bronchial branches, and likely endobronchial invasion at these locations. 4. Diffuse infiltration of the right lower lobe with probable malignant effusion. 5. Extensive mediastinal and bilateral axillary lymph node metastases. 6. Lytic metastases of the right fifth and sixth anterior ribs.

PATHOLOGY ======================== Bone Marrow Biopsy (___) PATHOLOGY: MARKEDLY HYPOCELLULAR BONE MARROW WITH RARE ERYTHROPOIETIC ISLANDS AND SPARSE LYMPHOID INFILTRATE, PLASMA CELLS AND STROMAL CELLS, CONSISTENT WITH MARROW APLASIA. SEE NOTE. NOTE: In the abscence of an obvious toxic exposure, such as medications, chemicals or infections, the findings are consistent with aplastic anemia. CYTOGENETICS REPORT: FISH: NO EVIDENCE of REARRANGEMENT of RUNX1 or ETV6. No evidence of interphase bone marrow cells with rearrangement of the ETV6 gene or the RUNX1 gene. Uncultured cells for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis with the ___ Molecular ETV6(TEL)/RUNX1(AML1) dual color probe set: SpectrumOrange directly labeled probe for the RUNX1 gene on ___ and SpectrumGreen directly labeled probe for exons 1A-4 on the telomeric 5' end of the ETV6 gene. This probe combination detects the ETV6/RUNX1 gene rearrangement seen in pediatric B-lymphoblastic leukemia. It also detects other rearrangements of ETV6 and RUNX1 as well as copy number abnormalities of these gene regions. FINDINGS: A total of 200 interphase nuclei were examined with the ETV6(TEL)/RUNX1(AML1) dual color probe set and fluorescence microscopy. 200 cells (100%) had 2 red signals and 2 green signals. 0 cells (0%) had 3 red signals and 2 green signals. 0 cells (0%) had 2 red signals and 3 green signals. Normal cut-off values for this probe set include: 84% for a normal 2 red and 2 green signal pattern, 1% for a 3 red and 2 green signal pattern, and 1% for a 2 red and 3 green signal pattern. nuc ish(ETV6,RUNX1)x2[200] FLOW CYTOMETRY REPORT FLOW CYTOMETRY IMMUNOPHENOTYPING The following tests (antibodies) were performed: Kappa, Lambd, and CD antigens 2,3,4,5,7,8,10,11c,13,14,16,19,20,24,33,34,38,45,56,64, and 117. RESULTS: 10-color analysis with linear side scatter vs. CD45 gating is used to evaluate lymphocytes, blasts and plasma cells. 75% of total acquired events are evaluable non-debris events. The viability of the analyzed non-debris events, done by 7-AAD is 92%. CD45-bright, low side gated lymphocytes comprise 86% of total analyzed events B cells comprise 14% of lymphoid gated events, are polyclonal, and do not express aberrant antigens. T cells comprise 64% of lymphoid gated events, and express mature lineage antigens CD3, CD5, CD2; a minor subset (3%) have dim, variable loss of CD7 (nonspecific finding). T cells have a helper cytotoxic ratio of 0.7. There is an expanded population of double-negative (CD4-, CD8-) cells comprising 6% of CD3(+) T cells. CD56(+), CD3(-) natural killer cells are 22% of gated lymphocytes. These co-express CD2 and CD7. No abnormal events are identified in the "blast gate." Blast cells comprise <1% of total analyzed events. INTERPRETATION Nonspecific T cell dominant lymphoid profile; diagnostic immunophenotypic features of involvement by leukemia or lymphoma are not seen in specimen. Correlation with clinical, morphologic (see separate pathology report ___ and other ancillary findings is recommended. Flow cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all abnormal populations due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample preparation. Peripheral blood (___): FLOW CYTOMETRY REPORT- Peripheral blood FLOW CYTOMETRY IMMUNOPHENOTYPING The following tests (antibodies) were performed: CD antigens 14,15,24,45,59, 235a, FLAER. RESULTS: A high sensitivity paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria panel is performed. INTERPRETATION Flow cytometric quantitation of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) using fluorescent Aerolysin (FLAER) and CD24 or CD14 on granulocytes and monocytes, respectively, and quantitation of the GPI-anchored antigens CD59 on erythrocytes did not demonstrate the presence of a PNH clone. There is no phenotypic support for a diagnosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). These results should be correlated with all available clinically and laboratory data.
