    Abstract One of the principles of managing trauma patients is that of their continuous re-evaluation over the hours and days. Even if the execution of the computed tomography method is classically recommended, especially in the most serious cases and in polytraumas with major dynamics, the clinician can use or request an ultrasound examination, especially in subsequent re-evaluations. Here we report a clinical case demonstrating how an ultrasound re-evaluation after the acute event can lead to a correct diagnosis of a rare complication of thoracic trauma. The findings were suggestive for a pseudoaneurysm of the internal right mammary artery. Subsequently, an ultrasound-guided injection of thrombin was carried out until complete interruption of the flow within the formation. At subsequent follow-up, no arterial or venous blush was highlighted.

    Abstract Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is increasingly used in clinical practice as the first diagnostic method in patients with suspected pyelonephritis rather than abdominal CT with contrast medium, especially in young subjects. We performed a retrospective analysis on patients in for whom a CEUS examination was utilized as a follow-up method after acute pyelonephritis as normal clinical practice. Through evaluating all patients, in terms duration between CEUS examination and normalization (healing) of the renal disease, we found that the mean duration is 25.9 days. Our ultrasound findings did not induce any therapeutic modifications, not even in the cases in which the examination was repeated several times. Therefore, setting up a CEUS follow-up examination after 25 days from the first diagnosis can reduce the number of repeated tests, benefitting patients and the healthcare system in terms of reducing costs.

    Abstract In this pictorial essay the theme of the differential diagnosis between the different causes of lung interstitial disease will be discussed, which can be detected on lung ultrasound as B lines. In particular, from the experience obtained during the covid-19 pandemic, the term B line may appear too simplified, and new data in the literature show that it is necessary to update the terminology and the differential diagnosis of this ultrasound sign.

    Abstract Gastrointestinal bleedings are relevant side effects in patients during anticoagulant therapy for atrial fibrillation. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are less correlated with major bleeding events than vitamin K antagonists (VKAs), but concerns are present about the relative risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Here we report the case of a patient with atrial fibrillation and dementia on DOAC treatment who developed a SSRI-associated thrombocytopenia with subsequent life-threatening bleeding. Physicians should be aware of the possible correlation between SSRI-induced thrombocytopenia and concomitant use of anticoagulant and/or antiplatelet drugs, thus preventing life-threatening bleedings.

    Abstract Benign focal liver lesions are among the most frequent findings on ultrasound. Liver hemangiomas are often easily recognizable on ultrasound examination and are characterized by a clear benign prognosis. In some cases, hemangiomas display an atypical appearance both on B-mode and on contrast-enhanced ultrasound, thus raising concerns for differential diagnosis both with adenomas and with lesions of malignant nature. We report here the case of a patient who presented with a liver lesion with all signs suggestive for hemangioma on B-mode, but it showed atypical features on contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination and final diagnosis of liver adenoma.
