Merritt, MD vii Gamut 0-00 Dedication This book is dedicated to Colonel William LeRoy Thompson, Medical Corps, U.S. Army (1891-1975) Colonel Thompson, legendary teacher of morphology in radiology and orig- inator of the Gamut concept, received his M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1917, and began his long and illustrious career in the U.S. Army Medical Corps that same year. He had various assignments in general medicine and administration and later became one of the early Army radiologists. However, it was during his last year before retirement from the Army (1951) that he began his most important work, his major contribution to medicine: the organization of the Registry of Radiologic Pathology at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology. After retirement, he offered his services, without remuneration, to continue as full-time Registrar and Chief of Radiologic Pathology. In the ensuing 16 years, Colonel Thompson worked laboriously in ac- cessioning new material and collating the material already in the files of the Institute. He was sustained in this labor by hours of daily contact with his “students.” It was here, in seminars at the viewbox, that Colonel Thompson drew upon a lifetime of accumulated knowledge and experi- ence to educate residents, fellows, and practicing physicians from all over the world who came to study under his guidance. In this role, Colonel Thompson was the catalyst, igniting in his students a love of learning and an understanding of the vital role that pathology plays in the discipline of radiology. He was primarily a morphologist, and accepted as such by his colleagues and peers at the AFIP. Colonel Thompson’s down-to-earth nature, his éclat in interpersonal relationships, his obvious deep regard for his students as well as medi- cine, and his abundant and abiding warmth as a human being made him truly beloved by all who came to know him. ix Gamut 0-00 A Tribute to Ben Felson He was certainly the greatest radiologist of his time, and perhaps of all time.

ABSTRACT Internal jugular venous (IJV) Phlebectasia are rare disorders. It is generally diagnosed at an early age, usually unidentified or misdiagnosed or ignored because of the scarcity of the knowledge on the disorder. We encountered a case of 7-year-old child with a right sided intermittent neck swelling which mimicked as an external laryngocele. But, the diagnosis of IJV Phlebectasia was made on “dynamic” ultrasound (USG) doppler study. Cervical adenopathy, mediastinal masses, tuberculosis and certain syndromes of connective tissue disorders were ruled out. The child was managed conservatively with parents and the child being educated about disorder. Keywords: IJV, Phlebectasia INTRODUCTION compressible, more pronounced on Valsalva manoeuvre (Figure 1). Internal Jugular vein Phlebectasia is one of the rare clinical entities, more commonly encountered during childhood.1 The knowledge regarding this unusual clinical disorder is sparse amongst the medical fraternity.

Abstract Brachydactyly ("short digits") is a general term that refers to disproportionately short fingers and toes, and forms part of the group of limb malformations characterized by bone dysostosis. The various types of isolated brachydactyly are rare, except for types A3 and D. Brachydactyly can occur either as an isolated malformation or as a part of a complex malformation syndrome. To date, many different forms of brachydactyly have been identified. Some forms also result in short stature. In isolated brachydactyly, subtle changes elsewhere may be present. Brachydactyly may also be accompanied by other hand malformations, such as syndactyly, polydactyly, reduction defects, or symphalangism. For the majority of isolated brachydactylies and some syndromic forms of brachydactyly, the causative gene defect has been identified.

    218 Primary Tracheal Squamous Cell Carcinoma - Presenting with Circumferential Invasion and Treated with Photodynamic Therapy Lih-Yu Chang*, Sheng-Kai Liang**, Chia-Lin Hsu*, Jang-Ming Lee***, Chong-Jen Yu* Primary neoplasms of the trachea are extremely rare. The diagnosis usually depends on computed tomography (CT) scan. We report a 50-year-old woman who suffered from chronic productive cough for 1 year. Roentgenograms and chest CT showed no abnormal finding. Bronchoscopy showed diffuse circumferential papilloma-like lesions at the trachea. Endobronchial ultrasound showed submucosal invasion of the trachea. The pathology of the endotracheal biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma. She received photodynamic therapy as first-line treatment with a good response and tumor regression.

HAMZAH, M.S.* Abstract Internal jugular vein ectasia is a venous anomaly commonly presenting as a unilateral neck swelling in children and adults. Literature reports of bilateral presentation are rare. Bilateral Doppler ultrasonography is the diagnostic investigation of choice. The possible pathology, aetiology and management are discussed. Conservative management of bilateral cases is recommended in uncomplicated cases. Key words: Jugular veins, internal, Ultrasonography Introduction clavicle with a mean enlargement measuring 5.4 mm which Internal jugular vein ectasia was first described by Harris (1928). It is a rare condition in which there is a fusiform or saccular dila- tation of the internal jugular vein. Only two cases of bilateral neck swelling has been reported (Leung et al., 1983; Walsh etal., 1992) whereas 32 cases of unilateral swellings have been reported under a variety of names including venous cyst, venous aneurysm, venectasia, venous ectasia, aneurysmal varix and venoma. Case reports Case 1 A healthy four-year-old Chinese boy presented with a two- month history of painless recurrent bilateral neck swelling which was noticeable on exertion (Figure 1). There was no history of dysphagia or previous neck trauma. Examination during Val- salva manoeuvre revealed a soft, nontender bilateral mass in the lower anterior triangle of the neck which disappeared at rest. A venous hum was not detectable on auscultation. The transillum- ination test was negative. Ultrasonography of the neck revealed a nontortuous dilatation of the distal segment of the right and left jugular vein with mean enlargement measurements of 5.2 and 4.8 mm respectively on Valsalva manoeuvre (Figure 2).
