PURPOSE: In young male patients who suffered several kinds of trauma with subsequent suspicious reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome, we performed three-phasic bone scan in order to investigate its usefulness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with narrow range of age (21-25. mean 22.8+/-1.3, all male) were included with suspicious reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome of 12 feet and 5 hands. Only one was bilateral feet case and 16 were ipsilateral (Rt:13, Lt:3). The etiologic traumas were 4 fractures, 4 sprains, 3 blunt trauma, 2 cellulitis, 1 tendon tear, 1 crush injury, 1 overexercise, and 1 unknown. Radiologically 3 showed osteoporotic changes. Three-phasic bone scans were performed 21.2+/-7.3wks after trauma. RESULTS: According to symptom complex, confirmatory reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome 4 cases and suspicious 13 were analyzed. All confirmatory cases (100%) showed increased uptake at delay phase with periarticular accentuation. Of confirmatory 4 cases, 2 showed increased uptake in all three phases (perfusion: P, blood pool: B, and delay: D), and other 2 revealed decreased P but, both increased B and D. Of suspicious 13 cases, 9(69.2%) had increased D (4 periarticular and 5 focal), 2 decreased D, and 2 symmetric D. In 12 foot cases, so-called weight bearing patterns - increased contralateral sole at P and B - were revealed in 7(58.3%). CONCLUSION: Diffuse periarticular increased uptake at delay phase of three-phasic bone scan was a compatible finding to reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome in young male patients whose symptom complex strongly designated post traumatic reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome.

In a retrospective study of 21 patients, in whom the acetabular fractures were suspected on initialradiographs, we compared and analysed the CT findings and plain radiographic findings and plain radiographicfindings. The results were as follow: 1. In patients with multiple trauma, no further change in position wasrequeired during CT examinations. 2. CT showed intraarticular loose bodies, which were invisible on plainradiographs. 3. CT was useful in detecting the fractures of acetabular rims, medial wall of acetabulum, andfemoral head. 4. CT permitted better evaluation of shape, extent, and degree of separation of fracture fragments.5. CT was helpful indetecting the associated fractures and soft tissue injuries. 6. CT also demonstrated theadequacy of reduction, the position of metallic fixation devices, and the presence or absence of remainingintraarticular osseous fragments after surgery.
