“…The ADs of pelvic rings and bilateral hip bones were 1.28 mm and 0.94 mm, respectively (P < 0.05); 2.27% of the surface points of a pelvic ring had more than 4 mm geometric deviations compared with its mirrored model, while 0.59% (P < 0.05) of bilateral hip bones were on the same level of deviation. 119 out of 159 pelvic iliac crests (74.8%) had MDs more than 4 mm, and 15 (9.4%) reached 10 mm or more. …”

“…Diagnostic imaging included a whole-body PET-CT that demonstrated moderate FDG uptake within the subcutaneous adipose tissue of the lateral aspect of bilateral gluteal regions extending from the iliac crests to the upper thighs. She was diagnosed with silicone filler injection-induced hypercalcemia secondary to granulomatous inflammation and initiated on prednisone 20 mg PO daily with progressive normalization in her hypercalcemia (9.7 mg/dl) a month after initiation of treatment. …”

“…In contrast to previous findings, fibroblasts originating from damaged renal tubular epithelial cells do not have an important role in kidney fibrosis, but renal erythropoietin- producing cells, stemming from neural crests, have been shown to trans-differentiate into myofibroblasts after long-term exposure to inflammatory situations related to kidney fibrosis. …”
