“…A multi-center trial examined MRI guided wire localization of clinically and mammographically occult lesions of the breast and found it to be beneficial, especially in lesions that were difficult to see mammographically [18]. Preoperative wire localization has expanded to be used to localize lesions in multiple locations throughout the body, including intramuscular lesions [19]. …”

MRI guided wire localization muscle biopsy in a child with juvenile dermatomyositis

A novel technique for preoperative MRI guided wire localization for targeted surgical excisional biopsy of muscle is described in a pediatric patient with juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). This technique allows for preoperative localization of abnormalities seen only with MRI. Using this technique, the patient underwent successful targeted muscle biopsy for confirmation of the diagnosis and staging of dermatomyositis.

“…The 17–20% of local recurrence rate reported in the literature which is due to inadequate primary surgical excision rather than histological subtype [15]. Compression sclerotherapy using sclerosing agents [6], radiotherapy [12], embolization [12], and laser ablation [16] has also been suggested as treatment options in large diffuse lesions where surgical excision is impractical.…”

Skeletal muscle haemangiomas are uncommon soft tissue tumors; more than 90% are misdiagnosed initially. They present as chronic pain and swelling in a muscle with or without a history of trauma. Plain X-rays, bone scans, computerized tomography (CT) studies, and angiography studies may not always be specific for this tumor. Diagnostic ultrasound is an appropriate initial imaging modality for suspected haemangioma, although magnetic resonance imaging is the investigation of choice. Many treatment modalities for the symptomatic haemangiomas are available of which surgical excision is the most preferred. We present an unusual case of pain, swelling, and restriction of movements in the right knee following an episode of trauma in a 12-year-old boy who was being followed for 1 year by a general practioner and later referred to us. The patient was diagnosed to have intramuscular cavernous haemangioma in the vastus medialis by us for which he was treated by surgical excision and followed for 1 year and found to have no recurrence. The clinical features, radiological picture, pathological histology, diagnostic tools, and treatment options have been discussed.

“…The concept of UGWL is well established in the management of breast pathology, and has also proved useful in pre-operative localization in orthopaedic surgery. Wire localization to aid the excision of soft tissue tumors including intramuscular haemangiomas [4] and neuromas [5] demonstrated good results, while cases This lies adjacent just lateral to the trachea. The 18-gauge needle can be seen passing though the overlying soft tissue (large arrows), and its tip (small arrow) lies just adjacent to the lesion reported by Chettiar et al [2] aided excision of a femoral sheath neuroma and localization of a sacroiliac abscess for incision and drainage.…”

Ultrasound-guided wire localization of impalpable lesions is a well-recognized technique in the management of breast pathology, but its use in the head and neck is not well described. Performed under local anesthesia, high-resolution ultrasound provides real-time imaging for accurate placement of the wire resulting in fewer complications. Wire localization can focus the surgical approach, which reduces operating time and minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues. In this technical note, we describe two cases of pre-operative ultrasound-guided wire localization to facilitate the surgical excision of impalpable neck lesions.
