Breast Trauma and Fat Necrosis Soft tissue injuryto the breast may result from blunt and penetrating trauma. Shoulder-harness restraints have been reported to cause subcutaneous rupture of the breast. Most breast trauma is mild and self-limiting. Specific therapy is rarely required. ...
may demonstrate pathognomonic features. The majority of soft-tissue lumps are likely to be diagnosed as benign lipomas and the patients can be safely reassured. Ultrasound assessment is however highly user dependent, and therefore in the case of diagnostic ...
Superficial soft tissue tumors can be classified into two categories: epidermal-dermal (or cutaneous) lesions and subcutaneous fat layer (or subcutaneous) lesions (Fig. 1.5a–c) (US of the normal skin and nail). The normal hyporeflective subcutaneous fat layer narrows with increasing extern...
We report the case of a 34-year-old female who was evaluated for a right lower extremity soft-tissue mass, found to be a large cystic lesion bound by fibrous tissue containing innumerable, freely mobile nodules of fat. Her presentation suggested the diagnosis of nodular...
variable collection of giant cells (arrows) admixed with mononuclear cells. (B) Spindle cell neoplasm of undetermined malignancy. Photomicrograph of H&E-stained tissue section showing spindle, bizarre shaped cells arranged in short fascicles without evidence of mitosis or necrosis. Scale bars, 50μ...
Cellular membranes fall apart and intracellular molecules leak, including LDH, lactate and intracellular protein, when cells die and undergo necrosis [15, 18,19,20,21,22]. The severity of inflammation and tissue destruction is more serious in NSTI than that in non-NSTI (e.g., cellulitis)....
The energy cutting method generate thermal cutting to tumors by using energy sources, such as radiofrequency, laser, focused ultrasound and microwaves. These energy cutting methods require precise control of energy to cut the lesion area without affecting healthy tissue, but it is difficult to achiev...
Case presentation of oral soft tissue lesions by using ultrasound, terahertz and histopathology In recent years, there has been an intense interest in biomedical imaging applications based on terahertz (THz) wavelengths due to its advantages such as non-invasiveness and non-ionizing radiation. A total...
Thin, dark, sometimes foul-smelling drainage from the wound (often containing fat globules) is characteristic, as is extensive tissue gas formation, which is more prominent than that observed in clostridial myonecrosis. Frank crepitus is present in the involved area and may extend widely, even ...
Figure 1. B-mode ultrasound examination of the soft tissues of the lower third of the face and neck. A 9 MHz linear transducer. Excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in the submental area, above and below the platysma muscle (b), and along the contour of the lower jaw from both sides...
