“…These MRI findings also do not establish a disease severity. Distal phalangeal bone marrow edema-like changes can be nonspecific and are also demonstrated in a wide variety of diseases including fractures, crush injuries, insect stings or bites, osteomyelitis, serous bone marrow transformation pathologies, and seronegative spondyloarthropathies [19], [20], [21], [22], [23], [24], [25], [26]. Other limitations of this case include presentation confirmation in correlation to known disease and lack of histopathologic correlation.…”

Objective The purpose of this report is to discuss the presentation and the progressive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a single patient with clinically-diagnosed Raynaud's phenomenon (RP). Conclusion RP can present as non-specific toe pain and manifest as progressive abnormal MRI bone marrow signal in the toes. In addition to patient presentation and clinical assessment, this information could contribute to earlier diagnosis and treatment of RP and other coexisting rheumatologic disorders.

Musculoskeletal infections consist of different clinical conditions that are commonly encountered in daily clinical settings. As clinical findings and even laboratory tests cannot always be specific, imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of these cases. Musculoskeletal infections most commonly occur secondary to direct inoculation into the skin involuntarily affected by trauma, microorganism, foreign bodies, or in diabetic ulcers; direct infections can also occur from voluntary causes due to surgery, vaccinations, or other iatrogenic procedures. Hematogenous spread of infection from a remote focus can also be a cause for musculoskeletal infections. Risk factors for soft tissue and bone infections include immunosuppression, old age, corticosteroid use, systemic illnesses, malnutrition, obesity, and burns. Most literature discusses musculoskeletal infections according to the diagnostic tools or forms of infection seen in different soft tissue anatomical planes or bones. This review article aims to evaluate musculoskeletal infections that occur due to direct inoculation to the musculoskeletal tissues, by focusing on the traumatic mechanism with emphasis on the radiological findings.

Imaging Spectrum of Bites, Stings, and Their Complications: Pictorial Review

Abstract: This article reviews the imaging manifestations of soft-tissue injuries caused by animal bites and insect stings. After completing this article, the reader should have an improved ability to recognize complications of soft-tissue injuries and the role of advanced imaging in select cases.
