    Notes: Abstract In order to reassess the diagnostic reliability of the abdominal plain film examination in suspected intussusception, the findings in 100 consecutive cases of this disorder were analysed. Then, these were compared with the same number of cases in which the diagnosis had been rejected by means of barium enema. It was found that a positive plain film diagnosis of intussusception was possible in 89 patients. In 11 cases inconclusive plain film findings called for supplementary barium enemas to establish the diagnosis. In the reference group intussusception was excluded on the basis of plain film findings alone in 74% of cases. In the remaining 26% of patients a barium enema proved necessary to reject the diagnosis of suspected intussusception.

    Childhood intussusception: Hydrostatic reducibility and incidence of leading points in different age groups (1980)
    Springer
    Pediatric radiology 10 (1980), S. 83-86

    Keywords: Intussusception ; Hydrostatic reduction ; Barium enema ; Reduction rate ; Leading points

    Notes: Abstract A series consisting of 658 radiologically diagnosed intussusceptions is analysed. Hydrostatic reduction was successful in 85.2% of cases, the incidence of failure amounting to 14.8%. Analysis demonstrated a marked difference in reduction rate in different age groups. The lowest rate of success was recorded in children over 5 years of age, the group with the highest incidence of leading points. The next lowest rate of success was in those below age 1 year where the frequency of failure was more than 50% higher than in the ages between 1 and 5 years. However, the rate of leading points was approximately the same in both the latter groups and close to the average in entire series. There is no reason to refrain from barium enema reduction in any age group although special care should be exercised in the neonate. With a reasonable experience of method, the risk of overlooking a surgically significant lesion is negligible.

    Malignant versus benign paravertebral widening in children (1981)
    Springer
    Pediatric radiology 11 (1981), S. 193-201 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1998
    Keywords: Mediastinal disease ; Mediastinal tumours ; Mediastinum ; Retroperitoneum ; Paravertebral widening ; Pleural reflection lines

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Dorso-medial pleural reflection line anomalies occur in malignant tumours, neuroblastoma being the commonest one, in benign tumours, spinal inflammatory disorders and in cases of pseudotumours of different origin. The latter group comprises normal structure variants, malformations and acquired disease but also a small number of transitory or permanent lesions of uncertain or obscure origin. The radiological manifestations encountered are displacement, obliteration or blurring of the paraspinal contour, sometimes a frank paravertebral mass. Based on a case material consisting of 65 patients the importance of recognizing this feature is stressed. An approach to clinical and radiological diagnosis is discussed.

    Paravertebral widening in a case of recurrent Wilms' tumour (1982)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract In infants and children the association of paravertebral widening and abdominal tumour has been regarded as typical of neuroblastoma. However, a paraspinal mass may develop in other malignant tumours too, but seems to be extremely rare in nephroblastoma. The fourth case so far on record is reported. Microscopically the tumour was of the sarcomatous clear cell variant.
