Appropriate imaging is essential in the treatment of children and adolescents with rhabdomyosarcoma. For adequate stratification optimal individualised local utilising surgery radiotherapy, high-quality crucial. The paediatric radiologist, therefore, an member multi-disciplinary team providing clinical care research. This manuscript presents European rhabdomyosarcoma guideline, based on recently developed guideline Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study Group (EpSSG) Imaging Committee. was...
Abstract Objective To evaluate the role of ductus venosus blood flow assessment at 10–16 weeks' gestation in screening for chromosomal abnormalities. Methods Ductus was prospectively evaluated 1371 consecutive pregnancies between 10 and 16 weeks gestation. The pulsatility index veins calculated. All cases were screened defects combining maternal age fetal nuchal translucency thickness. Results A abnormality found 20 cases. overall detection rate, specificity, positive predictive value,...
Background To assess the performance of whole‐body MRI including diffusion‐weighted imaging (whole‐body MRI‐DWI) for detection residual disease after completion treatment in lymphoma patients. Methods Twenty‐six patients with prospectively underwent MRI‐DWI (1.5 Tesla MR) and 18F‐fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET)/computed (CT) posttreatment evaluation which were visually assessed. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) FDG‐PET/CT standardized uptake value...
Background The SIOP‐Renal Tumor Study Group (RTSG) does not advocate invasive procedures to determine histology before the start of therapy. This may induce misdiagnosis‐based treatment initiation, but only for a relatively small percentage approximately 10% non‐Wilms tumors (non‐WTs). MRI could be useful reducing misdiagnosis, there is no global consensus on differentiating characteristics. Purpose To identify characteristics that used discrimination newly diagnosed pediatric renal tumors....
Fanconi anaemia is a heterogeneous genetic disease, where 12 complementation groups have been already described. Identifying the group in patients with constitutes direct procedure to confirm diagnosis of disease and required for recruitment these gene therapy trials.To determine subtype Spain, Mediterranean country relatively high population (23%) belonging gypsy race.Most could be subtyped by retroviral approaches peripheral blood T cells, although some mosaic were cultured skin...
Introduction: The primary objective of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy and effect an educational training on skin cancer course dermoscopy use among care physicians in rural areas Colombia. secondary assess diagnosis detection rate after 3 months initial training.
 Methods: Twenty-one from 6 Colombia participated a 2-day training, followed by day-long hands-on session at free screening event. Pre- post-tests were performed using clinical dermoscopic images evaluate...
Primary abdominal wall closure after pediatric liver transplantation (PLT) is neither always possible nor advisable, given the graft-recipient size discrepancy and its potential large-for-size scenario. Our objective was to report experience accumulated with delayed sequential (DSC) guided by Doppler ultrasound control.Retrospective analysis of DSC performed from 2013 March 2020.Twenty-seven (26.5%) were identified out 102 PLT. Transplant indications type grafts similar among both groups. In...
The aim of this study is to determine the most reproducible method in sonographic evaluation conus medullaris (CM) and its relationship with gestational age (GA).This a prospective singleton structurally normal fetuses between 20 30 weeks' gestation. Sonographic CM was performed using two methodologies: qualitative assessment level relation lumbar vertebrae quantitative measurement distance from last spine ossification centre (conus-sacrum or CS distance). Both parameters were analysed...
IntroductionClear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) and rhabdoid tumor (RTK) are rare malignant pediatric renal tumors, both accounting for 1-5% diagnoses. Within International Society Pediatric Oncology-Renal Tumor Study Group (SIOP-RTSG) protocols diagnostic invasive procedures to determine histology discouraged. MRI has become preferred imaging modality, however, non-invasive discrimination CCSK RTK remains challenging. Therefore, this study aims identify MRI-characteristics RTK, in...
Abstract Background Congenital mesoblastic nephroma is the most common solid renal tumor in neonates. Therefore, patients <3 months of age are advised to undergo upfront nephrectomy, whereas invasive procedures at diagnosis ≥3 discouraged by International Society Pediatric Oncology-Renal Tumor Study Group (SIOP-RTSG). Nevertheless, discriminating congenital nephroma, especially from more Wilms tumor, solely based on imaging remains difficult. Recently, magnetic resonance (MRI) has become...
To investigate the feasibility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) as a predictive marker after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with rhabdomyosarcoma.We performed multicenter retrospective study including pediatric, adolescent and young adult rhabdomyosarcoma, Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study group III/IV, treated according to European paediatric Soft tissue sarcoma Group (EpSSG) RMS2005 or MTS2008 studies. DW-MRI was institutional protocols. We two-dimensional...
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to assess the clinical impact indeterminate pulmonary nodules (no more than four less 5 mm or one nodule measuring between and 10 by computed tomography [CT]) in children adolescents with adult‐type non‐rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma (NRSTS) at diagnosis. Methods Patients NRSTS treated 11 centers as part European paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcoma Study Group (EpSSG) were retrospectively assessed. Local radiologists, blinded information except...
Here we report a case of double aneuploidy showing trisomy 21 and triple-X chromosome in Down syndrome born to young non-consanguineous parents. The child presented with strabismus, periorbital swelling, scanty eyebrows microganthia addition features. Molecular characterization has shown the maternal origin at meiosis-II meiosis-I.
Objective To examine the accuracy of early transvaginal fetal echocardiography (TV-echo) performed in a high-risk population.Methods A series 70 pregnancies were screened by TV-echo at 12–17 weeks' gestation between March 2000 and May 2001. total 74 heart examinations performed, including four twin pregnancies. For each fetus, visualization four-chamber view, origin great arteries, aortic arterial ductal arches was attempted segmental approach. B-mode color/pulsed Doppler flow imaging used...
The diagnosis of arterial complications in children after Liver Transplantation (LT) urges prompt and treatment. This study aims to determine whether hepatic artery Doppler Ultrasound (DUS) parameters can predict the immediate period LT children. A retrospective review pediatric liver database at our tertiary-care hospital was performed. included 70 patients who underwent a transplantation from 2016 2021. Clinical, laboratory findings were recorded daily first 5 days transplantation, with...
