    Abstract Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia syndrome (HITS) is a rare complication of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH). It is an autoimmune-mediated side effect of LMWH which is caused by platelet-activating antibodies that recognize platelet factor-4/ heparin complexes. Although HITS often leads to thrombosis in large veins and arteries, it can be presented as microvascular thrombosis. In this article, we report a case of HITS complicated with multiple digital necrosis after administration of LMWH.

    Abstract No consensus has been reached about the best treatment method of plantar fasciitis and the results of the treatment methods have been inconsistent. The objective of the present study was to compare the therapeutic effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy, platelet-rich plasma injection, local corticosteroid injection, and prolotherapy for the treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis using a randomized, controlled, prospective study. We performed a randomized controlled prospective clinical study of 4 groups. The first group received extracorporeal shock wave therapy, the second group received prolotherapy, the third group received platelet-rich plasma injection, and the fourth group received a local corticosteroid injection. The study included 158 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of chronic plantar fasciitis with a symptomatic heel spur. The clinical outcomes were assessed using the visual analog scale and Revised Foot Function Index. At the end of the follow-up period, the mean visual analog scale scores for all 4 groups were similar to the mean visual analog scale scores before treatment. At the end of the follow-up period, no significant improvement was noted in the Revised Foot Function Index score in any of the groups. The corticosteroid injection was more effective in the first 3 months and extracorporeal shock wave therapy was an effective treatment method in the first 6 months in regard to pain. The corticosteroid injection lost its effectiveness during the follow-up period. The effect of prolotherapy and platelet-rich plasma was seen within 3 to 12 months; however, at the 36-month follow-up point, no differences were found among the 4 treatments.

    Abstract This report presents the case of a 51-year-old woman with intermittent left knee pain, especially during full flexion of the knee, which had been ongoing for 1 year. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed mild effusion and round mass at the posterior compartment without synovial changes. Computerized tomography (CT) indicated mass had homogeneous low attenuation and density measurement of -99.4±62.3 Hounsfield units (HU), correlated with a lipomatous lesion.

    Abstract We present a case of a 48-year-old female with a history of cholecystectomy and recurrent attacks of pancreatitis whose initial abdominal sonography (US) revealed multiple conglomerated stones in the descending part of the duodenum. Abdominal CT, MRI, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed the same findings. The distended sacciform distal intramural segment of the common bile duct was protruding into the duodenum. The imaging findings explained the etiology of the patient's recurrent attacks of pancreatitis and led to surgical excision of the choledococele.
