    Notes: Summary The installation of the ventriculo-peritoneal shunt (VPS) is on the rise in the pediatric age. Its obstruction is a major cause for further deterioriation of the already present hydrocephalus. Distal VPS obstruction may be due to a pseudocyst, an infected pseudocyst or an abscess-formation within the peritoneal cavity. These pathologies are identified through an abdominal radiograph and ultrasonography. The sonographic signs are described and its differential diagnosis is discussed in relation to 6 diagnosed cases. One VPS was obstructed by Ascaris lumbricoides clinging to its tip within an abscess.

    Notes: Abstract The great vessels' interspace, in the pediatric retroperitoneum, deserves special attention during abdominal sonographic examination. By rotating the child into the right anterior oblique position, the full length of this interspace is demonstrated. Normally, it has a uniform appearance. When invaded by disease, the sonographic pathology can be identified and differentiated from the surrounding structures. The studies were gathered from experience with 1658 retroperitoneal sonographic examinations. Fourteen children were found with disease involving the great vessels' interspace: 4 patients with lymphoma, 3 patients with sympathetic ganglioneuroblastoma, 2 patients with retroperitoneal rhabdomyosarcoma, and one case each, respectively, of adrenal neuroblastoma, Wilms' tumour, clear cell carcinoma of the kidney, retroperitoneal teratoma and Toxocara canis.

    Notes: Abstract Osteopathia striata (OS) is a rare bone dysplasia characterized by longitudinal sclerotic striations of the long bones. It is of no clinical importance, but OS associated with cranial sclerosis represents a separate entity with a high incidence of palatine malformations and deafness. Only 19 cases of this entity have been reported in the literature. One patient of this series also had facial nerve paralysis. This paper presents a second case of OS, cranial sclerosis, palatine pathology and recurrent facial nerve paralysis. This incidence of 2/20 (10%) does not seem to be coincidental but raises the possibility that facial nerve palsy is one of the clinical manifestations of this specific bone abnormality.

    Notes: Abstract Acute isolated infectious sphenoiditis is an uncommon, potentially dangerous condition which is often misdiagnosed because of its nonspecific symptoms and paucity of clinical signs. We present eight children with isolated sphenoiditis who were managed in our medical centre during the last 2 years and review the literature. All the patients were adolescents or pre-adolescents and all experienced moderate to severe refractory oppressive headache. Four had a history of sinusitis or allergic rhinitis. None had fever or any other directing clinical sign. Diagnosis was made by cranial computer tomography. All were treated with antibiotics and recovered completely without infectious or neurological complications. Conclusion Acute isolated infectious sphenoiditis should be considered in adolescents and pre-adolescents who present with constant moderate to severe oppressive headache. Awareness of this entity will enable early diagnosis and initiation of antibiotic treatment which is essential to avoid complications and surgical intervention.

    Notes: Abstract Cortical thickening and/or periosteal reaction in long bones of children and adolescents continue to present a diagnostic difficulty for the pediatric radiologist. A history of physical activity points to the possibility of stress fracture, nevertheless bone malignancy or chronic inflammatory changes have to be excluded. The MRI findings in recent cases of stress fractures were confusing. An extensive metadiaphyseal abnormal signal from the medullary cavity was observed. Only the meticulous correlation between the various imaging modalities established the correct diagnosis. Stress fractures can occur in a normal bone that is subjected to repeated trauma, with the strain being less than that which causes an acute fracture. Localized pain is the presenting symptom [1]. This kind of fracture is encountered in adolescents who are often involved in competitive physical exercise. The conventional radiographic examination shows the evidence of the fracture repair rather than the fracture itself: localized periosteal reaction and endosteal thickening. A radiolucent cortical fracture-line is usually not demonstrated [2]. The radiologic appearance can be problematic in the pediatric age and necessitates differentiation from osteomyelitis or bone malignancy. The diagnostic investigation includes multidirectional bone radiographs, Tcm99 polyphosphate bone scientigraphy [3] and computerized tomography [4]. Recently MRI has been added to the diagnostic armamentarium. This paper presents the experience gained in the diagnosis of pediatric stress fractures which were investigated and followed up by MRI. It was found that this modality did not contribute to the establishment of the final diagnosis of stress fracture.

    Notes: Abstract The prevalence of bronchiectasis (BR), in general, is decreasing, yet the disease can produce significant morbidity in children. In the pediatric age group the classical investigation by bronchography implies general anaesthesia, thus carrying an additional risk of complications. CT has proved highly accurate in the diagnosis of BR in adults. It is also considered a reliable modality for the diagnosis of BR in children. This conclusion was reached by analysing the radiographic and the CT findings in 40 children with the clinical suspicion of BR in 25 of whom the CT examination was positive. Nine patients of this last group had bronchography as well. There was complete correlation in the diagnosis and location between the CT and the bronchographic findings. Thus, it seems that the occurrence of this disease is still high in the pediatric population in the appropriate clinical and radiological setting. The imaging evaluation of BR should include chest radiographs, computerized tomography and, if surgery is planned, bronchography as well.
