143. Clinical Imaging with Indium 111 Oxine-Labeled Leukocyte Scan: Review and Case Report

Author

Simon, William H. and Joseph, Warren S.

Abstract

The clinical use and mechanisms of action of technetium 99m pyrophosphate, gallium 67 citrate, and indium 111 oxine have been presented. The diagnosis of osteomyelitis in the lower extremity can often be made on the basis of clinical, laboratory, and conventional radiographic evaluations. In the case report of diabetic osteolysis, initial evaluations revealed osteomyelitis. The use of scanning involving leukocytes labeled with technetium and indium 111 oxine lessened the possibilities of an osseous infection. Studies show the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of scans using leukocytes labeled with indium 111 oxine to be superior to those of any other form of nucleotide imaging, but further clinical research is needed.

144. Soft Tissue Disorders of the Shoulder

Author

Simon, William H.

Abstract

The painful periarticular conditions about the shoulder joint – calcific tendinitis, bicipital tendinitis, and frozen shoulder syndrome – are seen commonly in the general practice of medicine or in the practice of orthopedic surgery. Their etiologies are unknown. Their treatment is relatively simple and depends upon a knowledge of the anatomic structures involved and the proper use of rest and exercise. Operative intervention is rarely necessary in any of these conditions. The frozen shoulder syndrome, however, in our experience is best treated in the subacute or chronic stages by infiltration brisement under general anesthesia.

145. Experimental Production of Cartilage Necrosis by Cold Injury: Failure to Cause Degenerative Joint Disease

Abstract

A cryoprobe (-20 to -80 C) was applied for 10-60 seconds to cause necrosis of metatarsal head cartilages of 11 rabbits. Segmental loss of nuclear staining was noted at 1 week and depletion of chondroitin sulfate (toluidine blue metachromasia and staining with safranin 0) a few days later. No degenerative joint disease was evident up to 6 months later. The latter finding suggests that, in addition to chondrocyte death, externally imposed stresses are necessary to disrupt the collagenous "skeleton" and initiate the changes of degenerative joint disease.
