Extramedullary hematopoiesis is an infrequent cause of thoracic masses. Extrathoracic locations are even less common. We have studied two patients, one with suspected pelvic neoplasm, with technetium-99m sulfur colloid marrow image and transmission computerized tomography. This noninvasive evaluation established the diagnosis of pelvic extramedullary hematopoiesis in both. We recommend a similar diagnostic approach in patients with chronic anemia or other predisposing disease, presenting with a pelvic or abdominal mass.

Review
This review presents the normal and pathologic development of the gonads and genitourinary tract and addresses the role of ultrasonography in the diagnosis and management of gynecologic disorders of the pediatric pelvis, including ambiguous genitalia, prepubertal bleeding, primary amenorrhea, pelvic mass, and pelvic pain.

BACKGROUND
To explore the movement patterns utilized by persons post stroke from the simultaneous perspective of pelvic and limb loading with the path of centre of mass during the movement transitions sit to stand and stand to sit.
METHODS
A descriptive pilot study where kinetic and kinematic data were collected and compared between the contribution made by the less affected versus more affected lower limb and trunk during sit to stand and stand to sit following stroke. Movement analysis was undertaken using force-plates and a 3D VICON motion capture system.
FINDINGS
Data were successfully collected on nine subjects of whom four presented with left side more affected and eight were male. Two patterns were demonstrated for pelvic loading, four patterns for limb loading and five patterns for deviation of centre of mass. There were no consistent patterns of movement demonstrated dependent upon the more or less affected side. There was no consistent relationship between pelvic and limb loading and deviation of centre of mass throughout the movement phases.
INTERPRETATION
In contrast to assumptions often made with respect to limb loading, we found large variability in movement patterns utilized by person's with a hemiparetic presentation during sit to stand and stand to sit. The findings suggest that movement problems encountered by persons post-stroke are complex and identifies limitations with respect to current measurement techniques.

Previous research on the effects of body mass on the pelvic girdle focused mostly on adult females and males. Because the ontogenetic plasticity level in the pelvis remains largely unknown, this study investigated how the association between body mass index (BMI) and pelvic shape changes during development. It also assessed how the large variation in pelvic shape could be explained by the number of live births in females. Data included CT scans of 308 humans from infancy to late adulthood with known age, sex, body mass, body stature, and the number of live births (for adult females). 3D reconstruction and geometric morphometrics was used to analyze pelvic shape. Multivariate regression showed a significant association between BMI and pelvic shape in young females and old males. The association between the number of live births and pelvic shape in females was not significant. Less plasticity in pelvic shape in adult females than during puberty, perhaps reflects adaptation to support the abdominopelvic organs and the fetus during pregnancy. Non-significant susceptibility to BMI in young males may reflect bone maturation accelerated by excessive body mass. Hormonal secretion and biomechanical loading associated with pregnancy may not have a long-term effect on the pelvic morphology of females.

Review
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to report the clinical diagnosis and treatment of a case of pelvic actinomycosis in our hospital and provide a review of recent literature. CASE REPORT The patient was a 54-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital due to "bilateral lower abdominal tenderness accompanied with anorexia and vomiting for 3 months". After admission, a variety of imaging examinations found pelvic space-occupying lesions, which were considered as malignant. She underwent surgery and pelvic actinomycosis was diagnosed by postoperative pathology. Postoperatively, she was treated with a high-dose sufficient course of penicillin (20 million U, iv gtt) for 14 days and she is currently under close follow-up for 1 year, with no recurrent symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Pelvic actinomycosis is rare and often forms mass invasion into the tissue structure around the pelvic cavity, which is easily misdiagnosed as ovarian malignant tumor. The criterion standard for diagnosing an infection is culture, with histopathology aiding the diagnosis.

Review
Pelvic masses can present a diagnostic challenge owing to the difficulty in assessing their origin and the overlap in imaging features. The majority of pelvic tumors arise from gastrointestinal or genitourinary organs, with less common sites of origin including the connective tissues, nerves, and lymphovascular structures. Lesion evaluation usually starts with clinical assessment followed by imaging, or the lesion may be an incidental finding at imaging performed for other clinical indications. Since accurate diagnosis is essential for optimal management, imaging is useful for suggesting the correct diagnosis or narrowing the differential possibilities and distinguishing tumors from their mimics. Some masses may require histologic confirmation of the diagnosis with biopsy and/or up-front surgical resection. In this case, imaging is essential for presurgical planning to assess mass size and location, evaluate the relationship to adjacent pelvic structures, and narrow differential possibilities. Pelvic US is often the first imaging modality performed in women with pelvic symptoms. While US is often useful to detect a pelvic mass, it has significant limitations in assessing masses located deep in the pelvis or near gas-filled organs. CT also has limited value in the pelvis owing to its inferior soft-tissue contrast. MRI is frequently the optimal imaging modality, as it offers both multiplanar capability and excellent soft-tissue contrast. This article highlights the normal anatomy of the pelvic spaces in the female pelvis and focuses on MRI features of common tumors and tumor mimics that arise in these spaces. It provides an interpretative algorithm for approaching an unknown pelvic lesion at MRI. It also discusses surgical management, emphasizing the value of MRI as a road map to surgery and highlighting anatomic locations where surgical resection may present a challenge. RSNA, 2019.
