Title: Imaging diagnosis-synovial myxoma of lumbar vertebrae articular process joint. Author: Blair WH, Levine JM, Kerwin SC, Spaulding KA, Young BD, Pool RR. Journal: Vet Radiol Ultrasound; 2011; 52(3):309-12. PubMed ID: 21554479. Abstract: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and histopathology were used to diagnose an articular process synovial myxoma in a dog. On MR images, the tumor was characterized by distortion of the left L1-L2 articular process, widening of the articular process joint, and the presence of a mass contiguous with the synovium of the articular process that displaced the spinal cord. The tumor was T2-hyperintense, T1-hypointense, relative to muscle, and had mild contrast enhancement. The MR features of articular process synovial myxoma may be distinct from other diseases of the articular process joint.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
