Item MRI evaluation of progressive supranuclear palsy: differentiation from Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy(2019) Eraslan, Cenk; Acaer, Ahmet; Guneyli, Serkan; Akyuz, Esra; Aydin, Elcin; Colakoglu, Zafer; Kitis, Omer; Calli, Mehmet Cem; 30373485Objectives: To evaluate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived parameters in differentiation of patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) from patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), and control subjects was aimed. Methods: Thirty-three patients [mean age, 65.21 +/- 4.75 years; PSP (n = 9), MSA (n = 8), PD (n = 6), and control subjects (n = 10)] who have undergone cranial MRI were included in this retrospective study. MRI-derived parameters including areas of midbrain and pons, midbrain area-to-pons area (M/P) ratio, widths of middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP) and superior cerebellar peduncle (SCP), MCP/SCP ratio, magnetic resonance parkinsonism index (MRPI), cerebral interpeduncular angle, and length of midbrain tegmentum were compared in patients with PSP, PD, MSA, and control subjects through the analysis of variance and Kruskal-Wallis tests with Bonferroni correction and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The length of midbrain tegmentum, midbrain area, SCP, and M/P ratio were found to be lower, while cerebral interpeduncular angle and MRPI were higher in patients with PSP. Pons area, MCP width, and MCP/SCP ratio were found to be lower in patients with MSA. For PSP, cerebral interpeduncular angle has a sensitivity of 100% and specifity of 90%, and MRPI had a sensitivity of 88.9% and specifity of 100% for PSP. Discussion: Several MRI-derived parameters can be used in differentiation of patients with PSP from patients with PD, MSA and control subjects. The cerebral interpeduncular angle and MRPI, which demonstrated higher values in patients with PSP, were more significant for PSP than the other parameters.Item Temporal Lobe Parenchyma Herniation into the Transverse Sinus: MRI Findings in a Case(2016) Aydin, Elcin; Yerli, Hasan; Gezmis, Esin; 0000-0002-1001-6028; 0000-0003-2463-1758; 0000-0003-0907-3647; 30151437; AAE-8301-2021; AAK-9572-2021; AAI-8276-2021Brain parenchyma herniation into dural venous sinus which is a uncommon entity, can cause dural venous sinus filling and simulate sinus thrombosis and other pathologies. It is isointense to brain parenchyma on all sequences by magnetic resonance imaging, surrounded by a cerebrospinal fluid rim and is seen to be contiguous with brain tissue on images. We report a rare case with spontaneous occult herniation of temporal lobe tissue into the left transverse sinus that may associated with headache.Item Vascular Leiomyoma Presenting as Anterior Knee Pain (Case Report)(2016) Aydin, Elcin; Coban, Gokcen; Coskunoglu, Esra Zeynep; Tukenmez, Mehmet; 0000-0003-0907-3647; 0000-0003-4824-4138; 30151458; AAI-8276-2021; AAJ-6774-2021Vascular leiomyomas or angioleiomyomas are rare benign solitary smooth muscle tumors that origin usually in the extremities. Most of these tumors are composed of venous vessels. Here in, we report a rare case of subcutaneous vascular leiomyoma of the right knee of a 38 year old woman who was presented with recurrent anterior right knee pain and soft tissue swelling. Clinical findings, magnetic resonance imaging and histopathologic findings of the tumor is discussed. Leiomyomas are not mostly considered in the differential diagnosis by radiologist due to its rarity. Typical imaging and clinical findings of a tumor is an important clue for an accurate and early diagnosis.
