Article Synopsis
- The article presents a case of ocular ischemic syndrome (OIS) in a 31-year-old man who was born without a left internal carotid artery (ICA).
- The patient exhibited symptoms like neovascularization of the iris and was treated with injections and photocoagulation due to complications.
- The findings highlight that congenital absence of the ICA can lead to OIS, emphasizing the impact of reduced blood supply to the eye.
Objective: This article describes the manifestations of fat necrosis on mammography, sonography, and MRI and correlates the imaging findings with the pathologic findings.
Conclusion: On imaging studies, the appearance of fat necrosis ranges from typically benign to worrisome for malignancy. Mammography is more specific than sonography, and emphasis should be placed on mammography in making the diagnosis of fat necrosis.
