Case ReportsImportance of Susceptibility-weighted-imaging in Methanol Toxicity.
Methanol poisoning is a rare but potentially lethal condition. Haemorrhagic necrosis of bilateral basal ganglia, particularly of the putamen, is one of the distinctive features of this entity. One of the proposed responsible mechanisms for putaminal haemorrhagic necrosis due to methanol toxicity is inadequate venous drainage of this region. ⋯ Also, congested and dilated venous structures were detected in SWI, which may be an indirect sign of inadequate venous drainage of this region. We intend to present the cerebral SWI features of a patient with fulminant methanol toxicity in order to clarify the underlying physiopathology of the brain damage, which has not yet been presented in the literature to the best of our knowledge. Key Words: Methanol, Toxic encephalopathy, Magnetic resonance imaging, Cerebral haemorrhage.

Case ReportsThe Fate of Coracoid Graft after Latarjet Procedure: Arthroscopic and Open Findings of Graft Union and Glenoid Remodelling.
Successful Latarjet procedures depend on many factors including graft union and subsequent restoration of the glenoid surface. Coracoid graft union has been studied; however, remodelling of the glenoid has not been studied extensively. We present two Latarjet cases in which coracoid screws were removed due to hardware issues, at 12 months postoperatively in one patient and at six months in another. ⋯ Our arthroscopic and open findings with respect to graft union, screw prominence, and glenoid remodelling, are presented. Both cases showed good union of the coracoid graft and restoration of the native glenoid shape. Key Words: Shoulder dislocation, Surgery, Complications, Coracoid process.
