Pulmonary interstitial glycogenosisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We present a case of pulmonary interstitial glycogenosis that developed in a nonintubated, 31-week gestation infant in whom infectious etiologies had been excluded. The infant was well initially and then developed respiratory distress at 18 days of life. Radiographs at first day of life were normal, but CT and radiographic findings at 18 days of life showed severe interstitial lung disease, mimicking BPD. Lung biopsy showed pulmonary interstitial glycogenosis. This entity is not well described in the pediatric radiology literature and is important to consider, as the condition is responsive to a course ...

Pulmonary blastoma in a neonate: a lesion distinct from pleuropulmonary blastoma with unique cytogenetic featuresEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We report a case of neonatal pulmonary blastoma, illustrating the imaging characteristics of this rare tumor. The subject of pediatric lung masses is confusing because the terms pleuropulmonary blastoma and pulmonary blastoma have been used interchangeably in previously reported cases. We recommend use of the current WHO classification to differentiate these lesions as additional cases are described. Additionally, we discuss distinctive cytogenetic features of this case.

Tracheomegaly: a complication of fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion in the treatment of congenital diaphragmatic herniaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion There are no previous reports in the literature describing tracheomalacia, or more specifically, tracheomegaly, as a consequence of FETO. We propose that the particularly compliant fetal airway is at risk of mechanical damage from in utero balloon occlusion. This observation of a new problem in this cohort suggests a thorough evaluation of the trachea should be performed in children who have had FETO in utero. It may be that balloon occlusion of the trachea earlier in utero (before 26 weeks’ gestation) predisposes to this condition. Content Type Journal ArticleCategory Original Artic...

Gymnastics injuries and imaging in childrenEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Injuries of children participating in gymnastics are seen less often than in more popular sports. Patterns of injury are predictable based upon sex, age and level of intensity of training and competition. More injuries are seen in girls than in boys, and the great majority of early adolescents who compete have wrist pain. Some otherwise quiescent congenital spine anomalies may be uncovered by the stress of gymnastics maneuvers and present with low back pain. In addition to diagnosis of injuries, imaging can be used to guide analgesic and anti-inflammatory therapy in some injured athletes. Parents wh...

Abstract It is estimated that 3.2 million children ages 6 to 14 years participated in organized youth football in the United States in 2007. Approximately 240,000 children play football in the nation’s largest youth football organization, with tackle divisions starting at age 5 years. The number of children playing unsupervised football is much higher, and the overall number of children participating in American football is increasing. Sports are the leading cause of injury-related emergency room visits for teenagers, and football is a leading precipitating athletic activity for these visits. Foo...

Abstract Basketball is a popular, worldwide sport played outdoors and indoors year-round. Patterns of injury are related to abrupt changes in the athlete’s direction, jumping, contact between athletes, the hard playing surface and paucity of protective equipment. Intensity of play and training in the quest of scholarships and professional careers is believed to contribute to an increasing occurrence of injury. Radiologists’ appreciation of the breadth of injury and its relation to imaging and clinical findings should enhance the care of these children. Some of the patterns of injury are well known to rad...

Congenital tumours involving the head, neck and central nervous systemEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Congenital intracranial tumours are uncommon and differ from those occurring in older children in clinical presentation, imaging characteristics and prognosis. These tumours are often detected incidentally on routine prenatal US and/or fetal MRI. Hence, the paediatric radiologist should be familiar with the features of those lesions that should be included in the differential diagnosis. In general, the prognosis of these conditions is poor owing to large tumour size and the limitations of adjuvant therapy at such a young age. Congenital lesions involving the head and neck region require a meticulous...

Perineal US in the diagnosis of a prostatic utricle cyst in an infantEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
This report describes an infant boy with bilateral epididymitis and a prostatic utricle cyst detected using a perineal US approach. According to our literature review, the use of US to detect this abnormality is rare. The perineal approach provides a better visualization of the cyst than the abdominal approach, and the relation between the cyst and the adjacent anatomic structures can be determined.

A case of horseshoe lung and complex congenital heart disease in a term newbornEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We describe and illustrate a rare association of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, absent hilar left pulmonary artery, and an unusual bronchopulmonary malformation. This case highlights the utility of combination imaging of echocardiography and CT angiography in diagnosing a cyanotic newborn with a chest radiograph that is suspicious for lung hypoplasia.

Brain malformations associated with epignathus: a clue for the correct prenatal diagnosisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We present a case of epignathus (oral teratoma) with midline intracranial associated malformations. This is a rare report of epignathus diagnosed in utero with fetal MRI description of these midline brain malformations, including duplication of the pituitary gland. This case is an example of how these intracranial findings led to the correct diagnosis of a small fetal oral mass.

Ultrasonographic detection of intracranial melanocytosis in an infantEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract An infant who had an extensive cutaneous melanotic nevus with satellite lesions had cranial US for an unrelated problem. Small spherical echogenic foci in the cerebral and cerebellar parenchyma were identified. Subsequent MRI confirmed these as characteristic of melanotic deposits, thereby identifying this infant as having neurocutaneous melanosis.

Decreased aortic growth and middle aortic syndrome in patients with neuroblastoma after radiation therapyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion Patients with neuroblastoma who had received RT showed impaired growth of the abdominal aorta. Significant long-term vascular complications occurred in seven patients who received IORT±EBRT. Thus, CT evaluation of patients with neuroblastoma who receive RT should include not only reports of changes in tumor extension, but also documentation of perfusion, and the size and growth of the aorta and its branches over time.

Segmental dilatation of the ileum in a healthy adolescentEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We present a 16-year-old girl with no significant medical history who presented with bowel obstruction clinically. Segmental dilatation of the ileum was evident on a CT scan and small bowel series. Following surgical resection, pathologic examination of the segment revealed the presence of heterotopic gastric mucosa. The girl’s symptoms resolved after surgery. Awareness of the imaging presentation of this entity can inform the evaluation of older children with nonspecific symptoms mimicking bowel obstruction.

Conclusion Epidural and paraspinal soft-tissue changes correlated with children’s clinical symptoms. Progression of bone and disc changes can manifest despite adequate clinical response. Long-term or serial routine follow-ups were not necessary. Management should be made based on clinical response.
