    Calcified or ossified chronic subdural hematoma: a systematic review of 114 cases reported during last century with a demonstrative case report
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2020) Turgut, Mehmet; Akhaddar, Ali; Turgut, Ahmet Tuncay
    OBJECTIVE: Calcified or ossified chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), characterized by slowly progressing neurologic symptoms, is a rarely seen entity that may remain asymptomatic for many years. Management of CSDH has improved dramatically in recent years as a result of advances in diagnostic tools, but there is still some controversy regarding the optimal treatment strategy. METHODS: In this systematic review, PRISMA guidelines were followed to query existing online databases between January 1930 and December 2018. We found a total of 88 articles containing 114 cases of calcified or ossified CSDH, comprising 83 patients operated on and 31 not operated on. RESULTS: In this study, there were 78 males and 29 females (7 with unreported gender) from 25 countries, ages ranging from 4 months to 86 years (mean, 33.7 years), with CSDH caused by head trauma in 33.3%, shunting for hydrocephalus in 27.2%, or after cranial surgery in 4.4%. The duration of symptoms ranged from acute onset to 20 years, with a mean of 24.1 months. Imaging techniques such as radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging were used, with pathologic confirmation of CSDH and complete recovery in 56.4% of patients. CONCLUSIONS: Incidence of calcified or ossified CSDH is high in certain countries, including the United States, Japan, and Turkey, with a steady increase in recent years. The therapy of choice is surgery in these patients and it should be considered in the differential diagnosis at presentation because of its infrequency and variable clinical manifestation, after shunting in children or head trauma in adults.

    Ultrasound evaluation of varicoceles: guidelines and recommendations of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology Scrotal and Penile Imaging Working Group (ESUR-SPIWG) for detection, classification, and grading

    Varicoceles are relatively common particularly in asymptomatic men and are even more prevalent in subfertile men, representing the most common potentially correctable cause of male infertility. Ultrasound (US) is the imaging modality of choice for varicocele evaluation, but there is no widely accepted consensus on examination technique, diagnostic criteria, or classification. In view of this uncertainty, the guideline writing group (WG) of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) Scrotal and Penile Imaging Working Group (ESUR-SPIWG) undertook a literature review and assessment of the quality of relevant evidence. The group then produced evidence-based recommendations for varicocele US examination, interpretation, and classification by consensus agreement. The results are presented in the form of 15 clinical questions with a brief summary of the relevant evidence and the authorised recommendations from the SPIWG. This paper provides a short summary of the evidence evaluation and the complete recommendations. Key Points center dot Varicocele is a common clinical problem; it is highly prevalent amongst subfertile men and the most common potentially correctable cause of male infertility. center dot Ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for varicocele assessment, but there is no generally agreed consensus on the US examination technique or the criteria that should be used for diagnosis, grading, and classification. center dot This paper summarises the recommendations of the ESUR-SPIWG for standardising the US assessment of varicoceles. This includes examination technique, image interpretation, classification, and reporting.

    Ultrasound evaluation of varicoceles: systematic literature review and rationale of the ESUR-SPIWG guidelines and recommendations
    (Springer International Publishing Ag, 2020) Bertolotto, Michele; Freeman, Simon; Richenberg, Jonathan; Belfield, Jane; Dogra, Vikram; Huang, Dean Y.; Turgut, Ahmet Tuncay; Derchi, Lorenzo E.
    Although often asymptomatic and detected incidentally, varicocele is a relatively common problem in patients who seek medical attention for infertility problems. Ultrasound (US) is the imaging modality of choice for evaluation, but there is no consensus on the diagnostic criteria, classification, and examination technique. In view of this uncertainty, the Scrotal and Penile Imaging Working Group of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR-SPIWG) undertook a systematic review of the available literature on this topic, to use as the basis for evidence-based guidelines and recommendations. This paper provides the results of the systematic review on which guidelines were constructed.
