Congenital extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (CEPS) is a rare vascular malformation, classified into type I (complete absence of the portal vein) and II (presence hypoplastic vein). This anomaly may lead to severe complications, including liver tumors, hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), pulmonary hypertension. We report case girl in her early teens with CEPS prior history hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), who subsequently developed HPS. Due complexity anatomy, conventional femoral vein...
ABSTRACT Aim Turkish healthcare staff faced significant challenges managing paediatric trauma patients after the major 2023 Kahramanmaras earthquakes, which killed more than 50 000 people. We describe how our large referral centre treated complex cases, particularly crush‐related injuries, and discuss both outcomes hospital organisation.

Objective: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is seen as a serious delayed complication of severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The aim this study was to describe the most common imaging features MIS-C associated with SARS-CoV-2. Methods: A retrospective review made medical records and radiological studies 47 (26 male, 21 female) age range 25 months–15 years who were diagnosed between August 2020 March 2021. Chest radiographs available for all...
We present three patients with Behçet's disease associated intracardiac thrombus and pulmonary vascular involvement. One of these had also Budd-Chiari syndrome. All were treated corticosteroid plus monthly intravenous cyclophosphamide as first line treatment no recurrences. Immunosuppressive therapy was successful in the regression thromboses patients. Intracardiac is rarely seen. should be remembered differential diagnosis mass, especially from Mediterranean Middle East populations.
The aims of this study were to describe disease associations magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-confirmed and clinically symptomatic sacroiliitis in pediatric patients with rheumatic diseases examine the relationship between patient characteristics MRI findings sacroiliac joint (SIJ).Demographic clinical data extracted from electronic medical records followed last 5 years.

Although sonoelastography is applied in assessment of many organs, studies for evaluation muscles are very few number and mostly limited to adults. With this prospective study, we aimed evaluate the value influenza related benign acute myositis children.This study enrolled 25 patients with a clinical diagnosis childhood (BACM) age sex-matched healthy controls. All presented our emergency department complaint inability walk had increased serum creatine kinase (CK) levels. underwent strain...
To determine the sonographic appearances of endochondral ossification process thyroid cartilage in children.Thyroid sonography (US) 420 children was performed with a high-resolution linear-array transducer. Right and left laminae cartilage, including inferior horns, were examined. Ossification foci evaluated for their presence, location, shape, size, echo pattern, number.Four hundred nineteen children, 239 girls 180 boys, enrolled study mean age 109.8 ± 60.7 months. found 167 (39.9%).

Arteriopathy is a common etiology for childhood arterial ischemic stroke (AIS). In this study, we aimed to address clinical, demographic, and neuroimaging characteristics the reversibility of vasculopathy in patients with due arteriopathy by classifying them according Childhood AIS Standardized Classification Diagnostic Evaluation (CASCADE) criteria.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children. Head computed tomography (CT) frequently utilized for evaluating trauma-related characteristics, selecting treatment options, monitoring complications the early stages. This study assessed relationship between cranial CT findings late neurological outcomes pediatric TBI patients admitted to intensive care unit (PICU). The included children aged 1 month 18 years who were PICU due 2014 2020....
