Metastatic Calcinosis Cutis in the Emergency Department: A Case Report

Christian Hernandez-Zegada, MD*, Holly Conger, MD* and Brian Milman, MD*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J87Q00 Issue 10:3 No ratings yet.
X-ray imaging was obtained of the left elbow and showed soft tissue calcium deposits. Radiology stated, “massive periarticular calcinosis of renal failure obscures fine osseous detail. Several of the largest calcifications have decompressed since the prior exam and may contribute to the drainage observed clinically. Superimposed infection is not excluded.” X-rays with an asterisk are the comparison images from two months previous to the visit. Areas of decompression are highlighted in blue demonstrating that some of the larger calcified nodules are no longer present.

A Case Report of Facial Swelling and Crepitus Following a Dental Procedure

Shady Mikhail, MD*, George Mina, MD^, Alisa Wray MD, MAEd† and Danielle Matonis, MD†

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J83W8H Issue 10:3 No ratings yet.
Given the physical exam findings of crepitus on the right neck up to the right lower eyelid, a maxillofacial CT scan without contrast was performed. It revealed diffuse subcutaneous air within the soft tissues of the face and neck and free air within the pre-septal soft tissue of the right eye, appearing as hyperlucent (dark) areas on CT within the soft tissue planes (blue outline). It showed no evidence of post-septal free air. A single-view chest X-ray was also performed and was unremarkable except for incompletely imaged soft tissue gas in the right lower neck (blue outline). On flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy performed by ENT, the oropharynx appeared diffusely edematous and narrowed.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8065J Issue 10:3 No ratings yet.
The distal portion of her uvula was necrotic with a clear demarcation approximately halfway up the uvula. She had no trauma to the anterior oropharyngeal structures, tonsils, or adenoids. There were no lesions to the hard or soft palate. She had no carotid bruits or thrills, and no tenderness over the anterior portion of the neck.
