Posterolateral dislocation and incarceration of the long head of the biceps tendon: a rare cause of irreducible anterior glenohumeral joint dislocation —a case report and brief review of the literature
AbstractFailure of closed reduction of anterior glenohumeral joint dislocation is infrequent. It can be secondary to osseous (e.g., fracture fragments or Hill-Sachs lesion) or soft tissue (e.g., labrum or rotator cuff tendon) impediments. Herein, we present a case of a prolonged irreducible glenohumeral joint secondary to a posterolaterally dislocated and incarcerated long head of the biceps tendon after an episode of anterior instability, highlight the utility of MR imaging for guiding management, and review the literature of this sporadic diagnosis.

Bone metastases from chondroblastoma: a rare pattern of metastatic disease in an adult
We present an unusual case of a 55 year-old male patient who presented with multiple FDG-avid bone lesions on a background of conventional chondroblastoma of the rib excised at another institution 11-years prev iously. Two of these lesions were also histologically-proven as conventional chondroblastoma at biopsy. This case highlights that, although rare, metastases can be seen in patients with chondroblastoma. To our knowledge, this is the only case with an unusual pattern of metastases limited to bone. (Source: Skeletal Radiology)

Association of physical activity with fatty infiltration of muscles after total hip arthroplasty
ConclusionThe findings of this study indicated that the improvement of fatty infiltration in lower limb muscles, especially in the gluteus maximus and quadriceps, is likely to promote the increase in postoperative PA. (Source: Skeletal Radiology)

Bone bruise vs. non-displaced fracture on MRI: a novel grading system for predicting return-to-play
ConclusionWe propose a novel MRI grading system for assessing severity of osseous contusions and predicting RTP. Clinically, there was no statistically significant difference in RTP between severe osseous contusions and nondisplaced fractures in elite hockey players. (Source: Skeletal Radiology)

Periosteal chondroblastoma of the femoral neck: two cases and a review of the literature
We report two cases of metaphyseal periosteal chondroblastoma both located on the inferior surface of the femoral neck. Both cases were paucicellular with an unusual dense sclerotic reaction. The diagnosis of chondroblastoma was supported by the expression of histone 3.3, K36M mutant in tumor cells. (Source: Skeletal Radiology)

Cerebrospinal fluid flow artifact reduction with deep learning to optimize the evaluation of spinal canal stenosis on spine MRI
ConclusionsCycleGAN demonstrated the capability to produce images with diminished CSF flow artifacts. When paired with T2 TSE images, the CycleGAN-generated images allowed for more consistent assessment of spinal canal stenosis and exhibited agreement levels that were comparable to the combination of T2 TSE and FFE images.
