    Abstract Objectives: To describe the technique, efficacy, and safety of CT-guided quadratus femoris injection with corticosteroid and local anesthetic for the treatment of ischiofemoral impingement in a series of cases at our institution.
    Methods: Cases of CT-guided quadratus femoris injections from 2000 to 2021 were identified in the enterprise-wide electronic medical record of our institution. Patient charts and our institutional picture archiving and communication system (PACS) were searched for demographics, pain level on a 0-10 scale before and immediately following the procedure, procedure technique, and follow-up outcomes if available.
    Results: There were 13 cases among 12 patients with clinical and imaging findings of ischiofemoral impingement included in this study. Of the 12 patients, 10 were female and two were male. There were eight posterior approaches and five posterolateral approaches. Of the 13 cases, 11 resulted in immediate pain reduction. The median reduction in pain score was four (average 3.46, range 0-8.5). There was no statistically significant difference in pain reduction between the posterior approach cases and the posterolateral approach cases. No cases reported immediate complications or increases in pain score. Of the 12 cases, seven resulted in at least 1 month of pain relief, three had subsequent surgeries, and three had no follow-up.
    Conclusion: CT-guided quadratus femoris injection is safe and effective for treating ischiofemoral impingement. Further and larger scale study is needed to fully delineate differences in technique effectiveness.
    Key points: • CT-guided quadratus femoris injection is safe and effective for treating ischiofemoral impingement. • We found no statistically significant difference in pain reduction between the posterior approach and the posterolateral approach.

    Abstract Immunological injury to the allograft, specifically by antibodies to de novo donor specific human leukocyte antigen (dnDSA) and antibody mediated injury and rejection are the major limitations to graft survival after heart transplantation (HT). As such, our approach to allosensitization remains limited by the inability of contemporaneous immunoassays to unravel pathogenic potential of dnDSA. Additionally, the role of dnDSA is continuously evaluated with emerging methods to detect rejection. Moreover, the timing and frequency of dnDSA monitoring for early detection and risk mitigation as well as management of dnDSA remain challenging. A strategic approach to dnDSA employs diagnostic assays to determine relevant antibodies in conjunction with clinical presentation and injury/rejection of allograft to tailor therapeutics. In this review, we aim to outline contemporary knowledge involving detection, monitoring and management of dnDSA after HT. Subsequently, we propose a diagnostic and therapeutic approach that may mitigate morbidity and mortality while balancing adverse reactions from pharmacotherapy.

    Abstract Heart transplantation (HT) remains the preferred therapy for patients with advanced heart failure. However, for sensitized HT candidates who have antibodies to human leukocyte antigens , finding a suitable donor can be challenging and can lead to adverse waitlist outcomes. In recent years, the number of sensitized patients awaiting HT has increased likely due to the use of durable and mechanical circulatory support as well as increasing number of candidates with underlying congenital heart disease. This State-of-the-Art review discusses the assessment of human leukocyte antigens antibodies, potential desensitization strategies including mechanisms of action and specific protocols, the approach to a potential donor including the use of complement-dependent cytotoxicity, flow cytometry, and virtual crossmatches, and peritransplant induction management.

    Abstract This article reviews evidence for performing various imaging studies in patients with total hip prostheses. Routine follow-up is generally performed with radiography. Radiographs are also usually the initial imaging modality for patients with symptoms related to the prosthesis. Following acute injury with pain, noncontrast CT may add information to radiographic examination regarding the presence and location of a fracture, component stability, and bone stock. Image-guided joint aspiration, noncontrast MRI, and white blood cell scan and sulfur colloid scan of the hip, are usually appropriate studies for patients suspected of having periprosthetic infection. For evaluation of component loosening, wear, and/or osteolysis, noncontrast CT or MRI are usually appropriate studies. Noncontrast MRI is usually appropriate for identifying adverse reaction to metal debris related to metal-on-metal articulations. For assessing patients after hip arthroplasty, who have trochanteric pain and nondiagnostic radiographs, ultrasound, or MRI are usually appropriate studies. The American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision process support the systematic analysis of the medical literature from peer reviewed journals. Established methodology principles such as Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE are adapted to evaluate the evidence. The RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method User Manual provides the methodology to determine the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where peer reviewed literature is lacking or equivocal, experts may be the primary evidentiary source available to formulate a recommendation.

    Abstract Shoulder arthroplasty is a common orthopedic procedure with a complication rate reported to be as high as 39.8% and revision rates as high as 11%. Symptoms related to postoperative difficulties include activity-related pain, decreased range of motion, and apprehension. Some patients report immediate and persistent dissatisfaction, although others report a symptom-free postoperative period followed by increasing pain and decreasing shoulder function and mobility. Imaging plays an important role in diagnosing postoperative complications of shoulder arthroplasties. The imaging algorithm should always begin with radiographs. The selection of the next imaging modality depends on several factors, including findings on the initial imaging study, clinical suspicion of an osseous versus soft-tissue injury, and clinical suspicion of infection.The American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision include an extensive analysis of current medical literature from peer reviewed journals and the application of well-established methodologies (RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE) to rate the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where evidence is lacking or equivocal, expert opinion may supplement the available evidence to recommend imaging or treatment.
