Shalendra Misser
Lake Smit and Partners Inc, Durban, South Africa
A 40-year-old lady had a CT and an MRI scan of her brain for investigation of severe headache following recent recurrent bowel surgery. The post-operative course was complicated by abdominal wall haematoma, and she required multiple blood transfusions. The background history of multiple previous bowel resections and chronic anti-inflammatory therapy for inflammatory bowel disease was noted.
Describe the relevant imaging findings and formulate the most appropriate clinical diagnosis.
Please submit your response to shalendra.misser@lakesmit.co.za not later than 31 July 2016.
The winning respondent will receive R2000 as a reward from the RSSA.
A detailed diagnosis and discussion will be presented in the next issue of the SAJR.
