Extra-abdominal manifestations of fat necrosis, like subcutaneous fat necrosis, polyarthritis, and polyserositis may appear with an occurrence rate of about 0.8%, wherein intraosseous fat necrosis is a more rare complication of pancreatitis, with few reports in English literature. A 34-year-old male with a 15-year-history of alcohol abuse was hospitalized several times in the last few years because of attacks of relapsed chronic pancreatitis. After the last attack, pancreatitis came in a stable state ("burned out") with no symptoms and signs of the disease. The patient had been free of symptoms for 28 months since the last admission when he came with sub-febrile temperature, huge pain, swelling, and erythema in the area of the left lateral malleolar region with propagation in the foot. Blood biochemistry was normal. Conventional radiography showed multiple sites of osteolysis in the left calcaneus. Images on multislice computed tomography (MSCT) with 3D reconstruction revealed hypodense focuses that corresponded to osteonecrosis areas and bone marrow edema in the left calcaneus. The possibility of intraosseous fat necrosis should be considered in situations of unexplained polyarthritis or panniculitis, particularly in individuals with alcohol abuse or pancreatic disease.

Mesenteric panniculitis (MP) is the preferred nomenclature for a continuum of inflammatory diseases of the mesentery. The diagnosis of MP is often based on the appearance of a mass-like structure at the root of the mesentery. Characteristic histology includes focal fat necrosis, chronic inflammation, and sometimes mesenteric fibrosis. Read More

Objective Epipericardial fat necrosis (EFN) has been considered to be a rare cause of acute chest pain, and especially important for emergency physicians. Chest computed tomography (CT) is often used for the diagnosis of EFN after excluding life-threatening states, such as acute coronary syndrome and pulmonary embolism. While the proportion of EFN patients who underwent chest CT in emergency departments is being clarified, little is still known about other departments in Japan. Read More

Most of the publications about Laparoscopically harvested omental flap after skin sparing mastectomy were case reports or case series. Most of them were designed for partial breast reconstruction and were lacking long-term follow-up for cosmetic results, oncologic safety, and detailed methodology. Our study aimed at highlighting the place of this method of reconstruction with long-term oncologic safety and cosmetic outcome. Read More
