Co-existing Paget's disease and ankylosing spondylitis resulting in panthoracic pagetic vertebral ankylosis
Pagetic Vertebral Ankylosis (PVA) is a rare presentation when Paget’s is associated with Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis (DISH) and Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). In these cases the pagetic trait extends from one vertebra to another by invasion of the intervertebral disc space. Such acquired vertebral ankylosis is extremely uncommon but possible when bony bridging syndesmophytes or osteophytes are present. We describe one such case, where delayed diagnosis resulted the most extensive pagetic vertebral ankylosis described in the literature and severe patient morbidity.

Is There a Role for Empiric Gastroduodenal Artery Embolization in the Management of Patients with Active Upper GI Hemorrhage?
To assess the relative efficacy of empiric gastroduodenal artery (GDA) embolization in reducing recurrent hemorrhage compared to image-guided targeted embolization. Data were retrospectively collected for consecutive patients who had catheter angiography for major upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage from May 2008 to November 2010 (n = 40). The total number of cases were divided into two main groups according to angiographic findings: those that demonstrated a site of hemorrhage on catheter angiography (group 1, n = 13), and those where the site of hemorrhage was not identified on catheter angiography (group 2, n = 27). Group 2 was then further divided into patients who received empiric embolization (group 2a, n = 20) and those who had no embolization performed after angiography (group 2b, n = 7). The technical and clinical success rates for embolization in groups 1 and 2a were, respectively, 100 vs. 95 %, and 85 vs. 80 %. There was no statistical significance in the recurrent hemorrhage rate, reintervention rate, or 30 day mortality between targeted and empiric embolization groups. There were no complications attributed to embolization within this study cohort. Cases of duodenal-related major upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage where no embolization is performed have poor outcome. Empiric embolization of the GDA in patients with major upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage refractory to endoscopic treatment appears to be a safe and effective treatment, with low reintervention rates and good clinical outcome comparable to patients where the site of hemorrhage is localized and embolized with computed tomographic angiography or catheter angiography and embolized.
