Lectures given to the Workman’s Compensation Board and Siemens MRI Symposium. Learning Objectives 1. Better understand Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors through individual cases. 2. Assess Internal Derangement of Joints through individual cases. 3. Improve your CanMEDS roles as a Scholar and Collaborator CASES 19 year old male Foot pain while running 1 Axial STIR Axial T1 Sagittal T1 22 year old male 2 months of elbow pain 2 Sagittal T1 Sagittal PD FS Coronal STIR Sagittal CT Recon Axial CT 9 year old male Growing ankle mass 3 Sagittal STIR Sagittal T1 AXIAL T2 52 year old female Slowly growing painless lump in triceps 4 Coronal T1 Coronal STIR COR T1 FS + GAD Ultrasound CASE REVIEW Case 1: DIFFUSE PIGMENTED VILLONODULAR SYNOVITIS (PVNS) OF CALCANEOCUBOID JOINT 1 Axial STIR Axial T1 Sagittal T1 1 Key Points NOTABLE: Mono-articular benign neoplasm, which is treated by synovectomy, but high-recurrence rates (50%) CLASSIC DESCRIPTOR: Low T1 and T2 lobulated tissue throughout the joint, with blooming on the gradient sequences due to hemosiderin PEARL: Almost never calcifies Cystic bone changes are usually in small joints Preserved joint space until late Case 1: PVNS of Calcaneocuboid Joint Companion Case – PVNS Wrist Coronal T2 Coronal GRE T2 Coronal T1 1 Differential Diagnosis 1.
