Abstract Objective The purpose of our study was to test the applicability and implications using O-RADS system, which is developed validated on adults, review MRI ovarian masses among pediatric patients. Materials methods We retrospectively reviewed consecutive examinations from patients referred imaging for suspected lesions, assessing them framework. Malignancy frequencies classes were reviewed, we appraised potential such approach split into low (O-RADS 1, 2, 3) high risk 4 5)....
To estimate the association between myocardial fatty foci (MFF) on chest computed tomographic (CT) images and type of gene mutation or multiorgan involvement in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).This retrospective case-control study was approved by ethics committee, which waived need for patient consent. Forty-eight definite TSC (41 women; mean age, 35 years ± 11 [standard deviation]) 96 age- sex-matched without who had undergone CT were evaluated. Two blinded readers...
There is a significant association between aortic atherosclerosis and previous major cardiovascular events. Particularly, thoracic closely related to the degree of coronary carotid artery disease. Thus, there rationale for screening aorta in patients who undergo chest computed tomography (CT) any clinical question, order detect at increased risk cerebro-cardiovascular (CCV) events.To estimate either wall thickness (AWT) or total calcium score (ATCS) CCV events.One hundred forty-eight...
Scabies is a skin infestation from the Sarcoptes scabiei. It considered public health issue causing concern in developing countries and "neglected tropical disease" by World Health Organization (WHO). lesions may cause severe itching can be portal of entry for opportunistic pathogenic bacteria, which serious systemic infections. We report case 3-year-old boy with recurrent scabies infections who presented to emergency department because fever refusal walk. Blood tests showed neutrophilic...
Background: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome is a severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children (MIS-C). To date, data on its long-term sequelae mainly concern cardiac outcomes. Methods: All ≤18 year olds consecutively admitted to the Buzzi Children’s Hospital with diagnosis MIS-C between October 1, 2020, and May 31, 2022 were followed up for 12 months by dedicated multidisciplinary team. They underwent laboratory tests, multi-organ clinical instrumental assessments, psychosocial...
Necrotizing pneumoniae (NP) is a serious complication of community acquired pneumonia.Streptococcus the most common cause NP.Contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) more sensitive than plain radiographs for detecting suppurative complications pneumoniae.NP requires prolonged course antimicrobial therapy, usually starting by parental route.We present case-series 4 pediatric cases NP, comparing observed data with those described in current literature.The clinical presentation and...
Abstract Background Non-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) bronchiectasis (BE) is defined as a clinical syndrome of recurrent, persistent wet cough and abnormal bronchial dilatation on chest High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scans. The aims this study were to characterize the pattern trajectories lung function parameters consider relationship between radiological severity according modified Reiff score. Methods retrospectively considered 86 children (46.5% male, median age 4 years) with...
Extrahepatic umbilicosystemic shunts are a rare occurence, caused when critical anastomoses fail to form between the three major pairs of veins in fetal venous system: umbilical, cardinal and vitelline veins1, 2. Various umbilical vein with extrahepatic have been reported, e.g. iliac vein, inferior vena cava, right or left atrium coronary sinus2-4. We report case shunt formed by an aberrant vessel, which, bypassing portal veins, branches into two vessels simultaneously connects system...
<b>Background:</b> Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a possible alternative to the computed tomography (CT) in evaluation of pediatric lung diseases (1). <b>Aim study:</b> determine diagnostic utility MRI as compared with contrast CT for postnatal diagnosis congenital malformations (CLM). <b>Materials and methods:</b> two experienced radiologist prospectively assessed 12 patients (6 male, 6 female, age range: 0-6 months) prenatal CLM. For each patient9s malformation were evaluated site...
